Yeah, you show them. Meanwhile people buying Apple products enjoy making music, enjoy insane resale values, when upgrading and I don’t see Apple developers complaining to be honest.

Ignore that comment of Chris. Apple supports their hardware way longer than any other manufacturer, but people not owning Apple products always complain the loudest for some reason.

Besides that, the iPad is probably the best groovebox/DAW you can get and once you tried out Loopy Pro with a few of the excellent and dirt cheap plugins you’ll save money and overhead buying 50% of hardware. Combine it with a controller and audio interface to connect with other gear and run it through effects, use sophisticated sequencers, yadda yadda. Check out Jakob Haq on YouTube to het a glimpse.

Thanks for the feedback.

The price WAS $9.99 when we published the article, so it looks like that may have been intro pricing.

I updated the post.

“Apples extortion pricing ”

LOL – best value in computers, best user experience & literally the highest rated brand in the world by its customers.

I’m still rocking the iPad mini my wife gave me that’s super old. Still works fine…

Wah

Can you elaborate on that ? I’m genuinely interested. I recently bought an iPad A16 because I wanted something light for making music on the go. Never been into apple ecosystem before. Thanks !

Thanks! Do you know if onscreen controls can be mapped to external controllers?

It’s a modular MIDI interface that’s pre-programmed to integrate with lots of hardware synths. The YouTube video demonstrates it pretty clearly.

Just tested it, it runs on macOS. The interface is definitely more suited for touch input than mouse input, though. And I don’t have any hardware synths to test with it, but I’m sure it works the same as on iOS/iPadOS.

I couldn’t tell either. It’s an iPad and iPhone-based MIDI control app for hardware. The “device” that gets turned into a hardware controller is your iPad/iPhone.
