The No.1 website for musicians
This is one of the coolest, most powerful iOS music apps we've come across in a while.
Everyone from total noobs to pros should snap up this slick, fuss-free musical notepad.
Figure is a fun little loop maker with a serious engine running in the background, generating serious sounds at the right price. Go get it.
If you're an iPhone user, now you'll never be without a polyphonic tuner.
If you have an iPad this will be more fun for much longer than spending your four quid on that pint and pork scratchings.
A brilliant guitar facility for your iPad.
There's a free version of SampleTank on the iTunes App Store, and we would emphatically recommend trying it before buying.
If you're at all into vocoding and/or resynthesis, this is one app that definitely needs to be on your iOS device.
Simple but strong.
Well worth a couple of quid, especially if you're of an esoteric or code-obsessed orientation.
A useful practice app for guitarists, though it's far from being the only one.
The most powerful music controller ever, on the most intuitive platform around, at a very reasonable price.
Jam this box!
A promising package dragged down by its various flaws.
No longer a bargain, but still a quality product.
An excellent addition to the iPad's growing synth arsenal - you really can't go wrong with this.
Shows potential, but needs to try harder.
Genome is the MIDI sequencer app many of us have been waiting for.
All the connections you need to turn your iPad into a functional studio. What's not to like?
At present the omissions make DM1 more of a casual plaything than a serious proposition. We can't deny that we had fun with it, though.
SampleWiz is a winner. If we wanted for anything, it would be multi-sampling. However, that might compromise the instrument's immediacy, and that simply wouldn't do.
Your chance to finally get with the Tenori program. Cheap, fun and mind-wideningly inspiring.
No editable synths or custom sample-based instruments makes FL Studio Mobile a poor cousin.
If you're an electronic musician and you own an iOS device, there's no excuse for not buying NanoStudio.
A true emulation, for better or for worse. A rich source of excellent world-famous sounds, though.
Dingsaller is a humdinger!
Once they get the stability issues fixed, this one'll be a no-brainer.
If you just want to record and mix audio on-the-go, then Meteor is highly recommended.
An exciting approach to controlling Ableton Live sets at a great price. iPad musicians continue to benefit.
SynthTronica takes you to places that other iPad synths don't and is well worth getting your hands on.
