Yes, this is totally possible, and it's what I do in my app AUM - Audio Mixer:
I have a main RIO unit for hardware I/O, that I never publish as an
IAA connectable node.
AudioComponentDescription cd = {kAudioUnitType_Output,
kAudioUnitSubType_RemoteIO, kAudioUnitManufacturer_Apple, 0, 0};
AudioComponent comp = AudioComponentFindNext(NULL, &cd);
OSStatus status = AudioComponentInstanceNew(comp, &unit);
etc...
And don't forget to AudioUnitInitialize() your unit.
I set the client-side streamFormat to non-interleaved float, with the
same number of input/output channels as the currently connected
hardware route.
Also I add a property listener on kAudioUnitProperty_StreamFormat to
be able to observe sample rate and channel-count changes and sync the
client-side stream format to avoid automatic sample-rate conversion by
the system. Also the usual enable IO for both input and output using
kAudioOutputUnitProperty_EnableIO, set
kAudioUnitProperty_MaximumFramesPerSlice to 4096, and set my main
render callback with kAudioUnitProperty_SetRenderCallback.
Then, I create 8 additional RIO units for my IAA output ports:
Same thing to create RIO units for these, except I disable input since
they are output ports and not filter ports. The render callback for
these units provide the audio to the host. I set the stream format to
stereo float using the current sample rate (and in the main RIO unit
StreamFormat listener callback I update the format on these IAA units
as well!)
Then I publish the IAA units, if using Audiobus this is taken care of
by creating an ABSenderPort for each unit and adding it to the
audiobusController.
I have some various developer notes regarding iOS audio and IAA here:
http://lijon.github.io
Important stuff regarding multiple IAA ports:
http://lijon.github.io/iaa_quirks.html
And how sample rates and stream formats work in IAA (there's actually
a chain of 3 different streamFormats, with 2 potential places for
sample rate conversion, in each direction of the host<->node audio
signal flow): http://lijon.github.io/iaa_sample_rates.html
