Work with Audio Unit Extensions in Logic Pro for iPad

In addition to the effect and instrument plug-ins included with Logic Pro for iPad, you can use plug-ins delivered on iPadOS as Audio Unit Extensions. Unlike the included plug-ins, Audio Unit Extensions need to first be installed on your iPad for you to use them. Some Audio Unit Extensions may already be installed on your iPad, and many more are available from other sources. You can buy Audio Unit Extensions from a variety of third-party vendors and can find free Audio Unit Extensions on the internet. Please check the documentation for your Audio Unit Extension for installation instructions and to ensure compatibility with the latest version of Logic Pro.

You use Audio Units Extensions in the same way as built-in plug-ins. When you install an Audio Unit Extension, it is installed as an app on the Home Screen of your iPad. In Logic Pro, installed Audio Unit Extensions appear in the Audio Units section of the Audio FX and Instrument menus, below all built-in plug-in categories.

In the App Store, you can search for Audio Unit Extensions, which can also be found by searching for “AUv3.”
