You know there are miniature amps and pocket-sized effect processors (like Line6 pocket pod) available?

The iRig is a commercial product made by a large company which has spent years perfecting their DSP algorithms... With opensource the best bet would probably trying to apply LADSPA plugins in real-time and hope the delay isn't unbearable.

Also the hardware is not just a plug adapter, a DI unit/buffer amplifier is required and likely powered by the mic bias voltage.
