I'm doing some research on iOS synths (while working on a new edition of my
synth programming book). Following the trail of breacrumbs, I arrived at
this page:

http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/csound/index.php?title=Csound_on_iOS

Unfortunately, it's blank. There's nothing there. I'd like to know a bit
about what's going on with iOS availability -- can anyone fill in the
blank(s) for me? Thanks!

Hi Jim,

We stopped using the Wiki on Sourceforge when we moved to Github.  The
latest Wiki is available for reading/editing at:

https://github.com/csound/csound/wiki

There is also the project website at:

http://csound.github.io/

However, we do not currently have specific information on that site
for iOS, Android, etc.  This is something we do need to highlight in
some way on the site.

For iOS, what kind of information are you looking for?  We have been
publishing a Csound for iOS SDK for the past couple of years.  We
publish a new SDK whenever we do a Csound release; we do this so that
iOS, Android, Emscripten, Portable NativeClient, Windows, OSX, and
Linux have a synchronized release and all platforms get the same
updates with each version.

To download the Csound iOS SDK, it is available in the same release
folder as other releases.  For example, for 6.03.2, you can find it
here:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/csound/files/csound6/Csound6.03/

More specifically:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/csound/files/csound6/Csound6.03/csound-iOS-6.03.2.zip/download

The download includes a User Guide as well as an Examples project that
demonstrates individual features of the SDK (i.e. how to bind a
slider, how to use MIDI, how to use audio input, how to read signals
from channels for metering, etc.).

For examples of Csound for iOS apps, you can search in the app store
for CsGrain, as well as software by apeSoft (iVCS3, Stria, iPulsaret,
iDensity).

If you have other questions, ask away!

Not being a real programmer, I'm only vaguely aware of what an SDK would do,
so I'm going to make a guess here. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

My guess is that Csound itself can't be used on iOS, as there's neither a
CsoundQt-style IDE nor a command-line interface, but that pre-compiled
Csound instruments (compiled somehow) _can_ be utilized by programmers who
are developing iOS apps -- that the SDK enables them to utilize the
synthesis power of Csound in their app. Am I close?

CsoundPad is a "CsoundQt-style IDE " for iPad.

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/csoundpad/id861008380?mt=8

Currently there's no in app documentation or widgets, but, you can run it along side your favorite midi capable controller software like TouchOSC, or iPad midi sequencer like Genome.
