Boy were we excited when we first heard about this: it’s a spot-on emulation of the classic Korg Electribe-R groovebox.

You have four percussion synth parts and four PCM synth parts to work with, and patterns can be programmed using the 16-step sequencer. As well as being a fine app in its own right, this was the software that first made people believe that the iPad has a future as a ‘serious’ music-making platform.

  • Angelina RobertsI love music and love use iPad, your article very useful.
  • Kord TaylorHi, I wanted to post a mention that Looptastic HD for iPad (usually $14.99 on the #AppStore) is on sale for only $.99 (that's only 99 cents US!) until Dec 30th. Go to http://bit.ly/arKmTx. As you mention, it's a great live loop instrument for folks who like to make music. You can remix live with loops and FX on-the-fly and then edit as an arrangement in apps like studio.HD. It comes with a ton of loops in lots of styles like house, hip hop, etc. Our gruvtron imstrument is only.99 right now too. Grab them before the price goes up again! Happy Holidays -kT
  • Matt PooleAlso very much worth considering is 'Animoog' - unbelievably great sounds.
  • iOS Musician BlogPretty fair list... Don't think Amplitube should be that high though, as you STILL can't use it with a 30-pin dock interface...
  • Daniela Orrantiaalso there is also ik multimedia sampletank
  • Flamin HarryGarageband doesn't work with Ipad 2 and os5 on the Alesis iodock. Beware!
  • Anthony AlvesI use Meteor Multitrack by 4pockets. By far the most powerful and pro like daw station for the iPad.
