"about to be reviewed by Apple"

I call bullshit - much later than this announcement the interapp-audio related update for Auria had been submitted, which is out for days now.

It might have been rejected. Been there a couple of times myself. Waiting for two weeks, rejection, bugfixing and waiting another two weeks. The whole app store process ain't always as smooth as one would like.
Regarding the update(s), why isn't the filter on the sampler fixed? It's been like that for ages now. The cutoff doesn't work when using filter envelope or the LFO.

ah, they really do reject updates sometimes? In any case, I'll have to eat my own hat, since the update is out now - and it's a great one - well worth the wait, I'd say!

Using Inter-App Audio on Beatmaker 2.5 is totally useless on my old iPad 2 and iPad mini.

It looks like I'll have to wait until I get my iPad Air or iPad mini 2 before I can get use out of Inter-App Audio on Beatmaker 2.
