Createdigitalmusic.com recently posted an article on a full-blown 48 track DAW for the iPad that looks pretty awesome.

The app comes from a new company called Auria, and isn’t available quite yet, but it’s features are very complete, as you can see from the following:

—48 mono/stereo, 24-bit/44.1kHz tracks, with recording for up to 24 tracks (you’ll obviously need a USB audio interface that can do that.)

—64-bit, double precision mix architecture (something that just came out in the latest version of Pro Tools)

—Full delay compensation

—“Vintage-inspired” channel strips, with a desktop-like UI and VU/RMS switching

—Plug-in support. Out of the gate, PSPaudioware, Overloud, Fab Filter and Drumagog all work. You need to do custom wrapping of plug-ins for this host; standard plug-ins won’t work. The format is based on VST, but it’s not VST in the traditional sense in that they have to be custom-wrapped for sale through the app.

—Dropbox, SoundCloud, AAF, MP3 export

—Advanced channel strips, EQ, expansion/compression and dynamic controls ready to go

—Convolution reverb. (This one blows my mind.)

—AAF import/export, making one definite application using this as a satellite for your desktop DAW”
