The best iPad music making apps in the world today

UPDATED: MusicRadar's top 10 list of recommendations

An old favourite from the iPhone, bleep!BOX for iPad really shows off the larger touchscreen’s potential.

Based around the classic step sequencer format, bleep!BOX synthesises all parts on the fly, meaning you can edit everything in real time and hear the results immediately. Program patterns, string them together to create songs and automate up to 50 synthesis parameters as you go, then export your tracks as WAV files.

The emulations of classic TR-808 and 909 drum sounds plus squelchy synth basslines make bleep!BOX especially fun for creating classic techno and acid house.

  • 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.
