The APIs may be complex, but at least, unlike Android, iOS gives you enough control to do interesting things with real-time audio. This is the #1 reason I haven't tried writing anything for Android yet.
Yeah, I totally agree on that. I looked into it and there's no way I could port my synthesizer app to android without some big philosophical sacrifices.
This package looks really nice, but it doesn't look like it has the ability to record. Anyone know of a package like this that helps with live processing of recorded audio?
I've seen an implementation of audio recording with CocosDenshion and AVAudioSession, but Denshion doesn't do any of the recording. It's only used for playback afaik so you can probably still use ObjectAL with this method.
Looks much much easier to use. CocosDenshion was a good idea but in practice it is flawed in the things that the author of this library talks about, which is that there are annoying bugs in iOS's and both audio engines (openAL & AVAudioPlayer) need to be handled differently.
