iPad to iPad Audio?
So, here's a crazy question. I would love to be able to process a few favorite apps that do NOT have Audiobus (ie Scape and Spiral) using the various wonderful effects apps that are now available. I have several IPads available for my live rig. Aside from chaining them together with analog cables, is there any other way to do this digitally? I've been inspired to ask this in light of new developments like Audiomux.
Any comments?
Cheers,
Evan

Secret Base Design's Apollo apps might let you do this via Bluetooth ...
Hmm, thanks!
Audio would be via WiFi, not Bluetooth. And has latency that may be a killer.
For hardwired digital domain go with the new iConnectAudio4+ (when it arrives).
A couple of options -- Apollo MIDI over Bluetooth will give you.... MIDI over Bluetooth. The connection is low latency, so if you just want to control a remote synth using some sort of MIDI controller, that might be a good way to go.

Apollo Remote Recorder (iOS) and Apollo Transmit (Mac) will stream audio out over WiFi. You can catch the streamed audio using Apollo Sound Injector (free), which is available on iOS, Mac, and as a beta-quality VST for PC. The latency will depend a LOT on your WiFi network; probably not fast enough for fast live playing, but if you want to sequence some loops on one device, and then play a synth or something else on top of that on the other, it might work OK.

A lot of the code in the Apollo apps lives on in Music IO (which should update really really soon now, providing audio and MIDI over USB between iOS and Mac -- just waiting for the Apple review process to get going).
If you have the cash, the iConnect boxes do look really good -- I think we're going to eat into their business for iOS to Mac, but for iOS to iOS, it looks like a nice solution.
Thanks for all the helpful suggestions. I just picked up the two Secret Base Design apps, but I still can't introduce Scape or Spiral. Looks like I still have an Audiobus dependence issue. The two apps work great together, though. I do mostly live ambient stuff, so the latency issue is not much of a problem.
