No full-screen landscape mode for standalone jamming.

Seems like a great update! But I agree it should have a landscape mode. Note I haven't yet tried the app

Great update. Lots of subtle UI improvements. And I'm really surprised how well the app runs on my 1st gen iPad Mini! Well done Korg.

I don't miss a landscape mode at all. Actually, I think the UI layout is brilliant and the portrait orientation is one of the reasons it works so well. I don't quite see how they could make it work in landscape without introducing a lot of wasted space and making everything way more cramped and inefficient.

this app is proving to be very accessible & fun.

would like to see a different virtual keyboard for some of the synths.

i can see how someone with no technique could create some nice tracks with this app.

has anyone used it live?

I see there's a new version of iOS7 out now. Anyone know if this version improves audio performance on the iPad2 over the previous iO7 version?
