implications if iOS7 on the DAW landscape

It’s by far the most intriguing development (for me) in iOS7. The one thing that stops my tablet from being more than an audio curio is the fact that it is so hard to get all the synths talking to each other.

Yes, we have Audiobus, but I find it is more of a clunky “make do” band-aid without true VSTi type performance in DAWs. Would be awesome if Cubasis was able to control multiple instances of synths (plus parameters).

I can imagine it being a challenge, and I can’t even imagine the technical hurdles to get over (i.e. you want to use more than one Sunrizer sound, can you have two instances of the synth?). Although part of my desires seems to be getting satisfied by the appearance of new synths within Cubasis itself. Part of the reason I invested in the app was for its potential growth, rather than 1.0 state. Seems to be bearing fruit!

Still, an exciting future to come.
