|
|
I loaded Garage Band for iPad last night. Holy mackeral. It doesn't replace the iMS-20, and has nowhere near the flexibility in editing sounds, but is a treat to play. Not going to drone on about how great it is -- but just say... It is well worth $5 to check out. It works fine on the original iPad, BTW. |

Yes, I think it's easily worth $5 for an 8 track DAW, even if it is simplified.
Written on my new iPad2. I've just downloaded ims20 and nanostudio, as well. |

On the strength of your comments (and the other iTunes reviews) I've just bought it
Could be perfect for me as I travel a lot on business so I'm taken away from my beloved O
But this app looks like it could help capture my ideas to bring back and develop when I get home
AND it's only £2.99 which is incredible price for what you get... _________________ Plugged in: Fantom 8, Jupiter-X, Jupiter 80, System-8, JD-XA, V-Synth GTv2, FA-06, SE-02, JU-06A, TR-09, VT-4, Go:Livecast, Rubix44, Shure SM7b, Push2, Ableton 11 Suite, Sibelius, KRK Rokit 5, |

I really love it. In no time you build up cool patterns!
But it has no note-editor like the macintosh version!
And no midi-export!
With these two features in the next update it would rock!!! _________________ Current Gear:

I don't like GarageBand for iPad that much. No way to place sounds in a 16 step thingy. It seems all you can do is play live which sucks for me cus I'm not good nor interested in live really. It's got awesome gui, but no step sequencer which ruins it for me and makes it a waste of money for me. I might be missing something tho. |

Then you'll probably like Rebirth instead. |

Maybe. Except I don't know how many instruments and sounds it has. |

I'll be interested in it when it gets MIDI clock sync and a piano roll editor. Hopefully it will, the velocity response from the screen is surprisingly effective, I heard Apple patented this so I hope that doesn't mean we won't see others use it too...
Anyone know of an iPad "DAW" that has MIDI clock sync? _________________ http://www.youtube.com/WilyEPeyote |

I think garagebad is excellent but limited. No sequencer or piano roll. No edit facility to clean up errors. Can't import via iTunes. But it's far easier to get to grips with than korg msi20. _________________ www.soundclick.com/honeycroft |

Seriously? You must be trollin', brah. Just looking at the interface of the iMS-20 can give nightmares to someone who hasn't been tinkering with electronic music for years. This ain't my first rodeo, and I can get by in iMS-20 but still feel like I'm using <20% of the program's potential.
GB is on the opposite end of the spectrum. It's a little too dumbed down and obviously suited to non-musicians. The lack of the piano roll sucks, but the post-recording quantizing works well enough. And GB's samples have always sounded a little cheesy to me, especially compared to a program like ThumbJam. But for 5 bucks, why not? _________________ KORG Electribe 2, Volca Keys, Volca Sample, Gadget |

No, not trolling just curious as I thought Korg did a great job translating the MS20 into software. I seem to recall, from my youth, that the original MS20 manual was pretty good and had some decent patch examples too, maybe that's online somewhere, might help.
All the best anyway _________________ http://www.youtube.com/WilyEPeyote |

No doubt Korg did a wonderful job! It's just that the original MS-20 had all the complexities of the cosmos and most people of the iGeneration are used to simple, streamlined ways of creating loops. I think an iOS version of the Kaossilator would make more sense for Korg, although I do appreciate the addition of a Kaoss Pad controller to the iMS-20. _________________ KORG Electribe 2, Volca Keys, Volca Sample, Gadget |

Well, back in the day we coped fine with the real MS20 with a bit of experimentation. It really is not a complicated synth and actually quite limited so I dearly hope you're wrong that today's generation have to have everything on a plate. Still, it would explain a lot... _________________ http://www.youtube.com/WilyEPeyote |
