An awesome creativity igniter
I have been using this app to assist in overcoming writers block and also to help spark new ideas. The samples are top notch and the UI is designed in such a way as to be intuitive and inspiring. All samples come pre-defined with tempo, key, type (melodic, percussive, bass, drums), and can be mixed and matched with ease. The most valuable feature is the automatic time stretching allowing super experimental genre blending. It has your basic slip editing as well as EQ, and samples can be sliced to create different variations. I do have some improvement suggestions for the devs. I’d like to see a 3rd export option: Export bank stems. You can currently sum a group and export that, but it would be nice to be able to get the individual stems without exporting the entire project with all 6 banks. Also, (and perhaps I missed it) but a solo feature would be nice. Who not flick down on a sample to mute it, and flick up on a sample to solo? I have probably spent a good dozen or so hours in the app and I can confidently say this is an indispensable tool for any musician/producer at any level. Note: when exporting sounds, always use WAV and make sure when importing into your DAW that your audio track is set to stereo, not mono. I saw a few noobs complaining it sounds bad when exporting and this is why.

Solid, Serious Music Creation App
The idea of making music on a phone or tablet seems like it would be just for play, but I am gotten real, great songs pieced together starting here with this app. The quality and diversity of their sound packs is amazing. Being an iPhone user you would think that you won’t get anything better than garage band-but trust me, get this app, maybe the companion apps also and some sweet in app purchases for two bucks each (not required but I have probably bought 30 of the sound packs because they are so good) and you will really expand your creativity and creation ability three times over. This is an amazing product and all of the stuff they put out has been stellar and I’m so happy it exists, and that I can get real songs down, not just tiny ideas.

Intuitive and Powerful
This is a free app for recording, playing, and managing loops. It comes with automated key and tempo matching, which works amazingly well if one doesn't push the processing too hard. The integration with AudioBus feels seamless, but I often find that recording does not always start precisely on the downbeat. There are some no-brainer in-app purchases. The slicer is a great tool for abstracting the familiar. Importing my own audio files is a must, too. While some may find the pre-loaded tracks to be of great use, I wish could just delete them all to save space. I also wish that there was a fade-in/fade-out tool to fix recordings that start in the middle of a sound. I use it, mostly, to create ambient tracks with different parts slowly fading in and out.
