What’s on my iPad.

I have to admit that I have had a bit of a spending spree on the old iPad and there is no shortage of good Daws out there. I do feel though that where they fall down a bit is that not one of them has everything that I want and moving material between them all can be. Well a bit hit or miss. There are a lot of standards and none seem to adhere to them all. You might be able to export as a midi from one but not import to another. One allows you to save in wav another doesn’t. One uses pasteboard, another uses Audiocopy and some use stores like Dropbox. Its a shame they all can’t get together and decide what works best for users.

FL Studio 10.5 Beta

As much as I grew up on Fruity-loops I started to feel that it was falling behind the rest of the Daws. So much so that I invested near enough a grand in Ableton Live. However, Image-line seem to have finally cracked the elusive performance mode that it’s fan base had been crying out for on the forum for years. The new beta demo of 10.5 is nothing short of a revolution for FL Studio and should project it back into the ranks of the big boys. Especially when you compare it in monetary terms. Bang for buck it is right up there now. Check out the video tutorial on Image-lines site. One watch of this and 20 minutes of dabbling about and I had my Novation Launchpad playing in live mode, like a dream. All the big controllers are now supported and you can have as many running together as you like. Hats off Imageline. A job well done and I for one am looking forward to version 11.

Complete set from UFO Dance

UFO Dance Set 1 by UFO Dance

Butterflies was produced entirely on Garageband for iPad. The latest update introduces smart strings. If they ever add smart brass then this baby will have it all. Only down side for me is the output options. I would love to save as a midi or at least as stems.

Ableton and the iPad

Finally took the plunge and invested in an iPad, in fact I am writing this now on the WordPress app on said iPad – god send. I have tried various hardware and iPhone apps to control Ableton but nothing really grabbed my fancy. The Novation Launchpad has been the best so far but I never got to grips with the sub screens on it. Now I have the tools I thought I would try out Touchable and put it through its ropes. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
