Apple has been dominating the tech news agenda with its latest product launch event, which - as predicted - saw the announcement of the eagerly anticipated fourth generation iPod touch.

Offering most of the functionality of the iPhone 4, this looks like the perfect app-lovers device, and if it's new music making apps you're looking for, you've come to the right place.

Amidio Seline HD, £3.49

An innovative looking synth that’s said to be capable of analysing and predicting your melodies. It’s played with two hands on a surface called the ioGrid - which will “never let you play ‘bad’ notes”, apparently - and you can choose from 20 sounds and a further nine drone voices. Check out Seline HD being played in this video.

Deputy Editor

I’m the Deputy Editor of MusicRadar, having worked on the site since its launch in 2007. I previously spent eight years working on our sister magazine, Computer Music. I’ve been playing the piano, gigging in bands and failing to finish tracks at home for more than 30 years, 24 of which I’ve also spent writing about music and the ever-changing technology used to make it.
