FABFILTER iOS plugin collection £29 TO £39 EACH

Since iOS had standards like Inter App Audio (IAA), Audiobus and Audio Units developed for it, the mobile platform has become a great one for creating complete studio setups on. All three of these standards allow you to mix and match apps on your iPad or iPhone so that they can talk and work with one another. Just like a desktop DAW, for example, Cubasis on the iPad can run plug-ins which are installed separately. Want to run some instruments and effects developed by third parties in your iOS DAW? No problem.

Audio Units in particular – now at version 3 as AUv3 – seems to be the one that has solidified iOS as a proper music making format, and more companies are developing apps and plug-ins for it. FabFilter is one such company, a developer of some of the best desktop plug-ins around.
