Here are the 10 best music production apps we were able to research in the market today. It was tough compiling this guide today because there are so many out there, but we managed to fine tune ten of them.

As opposed to needing a four track recorder, microphone and a few instruments back in the day, now we can simply download some software onto our computers, phones or tablets and get going immediately with merely our fingertips. As technology continues to grow, music making becomes a lot more broad in terms of how we can actually create it. I'm still trying to see if this exports MIDI, so far I've just been going piece by piece trying all the features. You can export audio directly to sound cloud or Dropbox (i love this). Its all about that classic video game sound.

I'm mirroring the interface via my Apple TV to my 46' flatscreen and making a song walking around my crib on an iPad mini with sound blaring out my TV speaker system is pretty cool.Īpp could use a mastering suite & having basic functions like side chaining would be nice.įor you chip tune guys, the 8-bit Chiptune synth might become a secret weapon in a lot of people's arsenals.

If you have another Airplay Capable products (like an Apple TV or speakers) you can stream audio/video from the app. This is the closest I've come to actual DAW function. The sequencer's copy/paste function takes some getting used to & it could use an overall, but its alright when you get used to it. Some of the tracks are really good & some of the best I've heard from similar attempts by other apps. There's a really cool SoundCloud/Social Network like feature called GadgetCloud where you can upload songs and listen to other people works.

The quality of the synths is what you would expect from a company like Korg (really good) and if you didn't say anything, nobody would know you used an iPad to compose your latest masterpiece.Īnything missed, comments or whatever, feel free to post! :)Įdit: There are some things I overlooked. The songs are actually very usable in their iPad form and this is the closest one could get to the Ableton/Reason/Favorite DAW experience on iOS or while mobile. Overall its a joy for me to sketch out very pro-soudnign ideas on this thing. I would be a bit worried in Sweden if Korg decided to release Gadget as a Win/OSX suite with VSTs similar to what Native Instruments has done with Komplete, just on a smaller scale. While I think very, very highly of Figure, Propellerhead's attempt at making an iOS app based on their flagship product feels like a really nice toy next to Korg Gadget. While Reason 7 is a monster that requires more than what iOS can deliver at the moment, Korg Gadget feels like what a mobile version of Reason could have been. I also wish there was a seamless way to have Gadget synths play in Ableton (or your favorite DAW) but until someone comes up with that solution for all iOS products we will have to make due with what we have.Īn interesting take away from this is that Korg has out-Reason'ed Propellerheads at their own game here. Things such as samplers or rex-players/slicers would be nice, but aren't missed if you ask me. It may be lacking some minor features like a true DAW on a PC/mac might have, but I think those will be incorporated down the road in a 'reason-like' fashion with new synths. I'm interested in seeing them further develop this app, so far its hit all the marks. Korg has made a neat little package for mobile song writing or lazy couch/bed beat making. The midi editing is more than adequate and is a joy to use, it feels natural. I can't believe I'm getting this out of an iPad. First of all, with 15 synths, the sounds are amazing. After several decent attempts that missed the mark a bit, Korg has really done a bang up job with this one. Recently my feelings towards iOS music making have changed with Korg Gadget. There's hasn't been an app where I could comfortable sketch out ideas and comfortably port them into Ableton or any other DAW. Some have come close, notably GarageBand, FL Studio Mobile and more recently Cubasis, however the aforementioned apps felt lacking and felt more like they were shoehorned onto iOS. Regarding DAWs, iOS has truly been lacking in anything intuitive or frankly even usable. Although not all DAWs, some of my favorites include Garageband, Lemur, Figure, Animoog, Alchemy, & Touchable. When it comes to iOS DAWs I have literally tried them all.
