After slogging through all the crap necessary to get synth sound and mixed channels w/ fx playback and music simultaneously on iOS, I don't really feel like such an absolute beginner. I just am confused as to why my mp3 playback does not work with longer files, and in addition I am wondering whether a 'pure' sound format exists, where you get the samples and their sequencing all bundled up in a file.

What you're describing is a hybrid of sound waveforms and sequencing, with multiple data types in a single file. There have been such file types in the past, but they were usually custom-designed for one particular program and then adopted by one or two others.
