people are going crazy about Drambo

The Moog Minimoog app was and might still be free for the pandemic - it sounds great for a vintage emulation with some bonus features (polyphony, looper)

Drambo is a lot of fun, and based on what I'm seeing people do on youtube and other forums, seems to have limitless potential, but... aside from some ok-sounding generic synths sounds that I could have made just as easily in Zeeon, I'm feeling a little bit clueless about how to do anything awesome in it.

I made most of this in Beatmaker 3 on an iPad (not the live bass though). I recorded Nord into it for the Rhodes, and used Sunrizer and another AU synth for the other bits.

Eventually dropped all the stems into Ableton to finish, though, and got a couple of analog synth tracks and Ultranova stuff for the coda.

buying this today based on this article. The dev’s other apps are great especially Tardigrain.

Damn, that makes me want to try incorporating an iPad into my DAW workflow again, even though I know it will never happen

i bought a hi-spec iPad Pro last night and i think it's gonna be a game changer for my music making. holy shit, so fun to jam on this thing.

so far i've got Novation's Blocs Wave & Groovebox, Propellerheads' Figure, Patterning 2, Sugar Bytes Drum Computer, and AUM to mix them all up.

Tardigrain looks very cool.

btw, speaking of incorporating iPads into the DAW workflow, I bought TouchOSC as well, and set it up to communicate with Ableton... Seems like it could be very useful, but I couldn't find any readymade Ableton templates around the web, so I'll probably have to make my own

I bought all five of them too. They’re a steal.

Logic Pro for iPad announced. There are some cases (like EQ curves), where a stylus/touch interface would be really helpful.

Right now you can get the entire Moogerfooger effects suite as one big bundle for $40. Kinda worth it
