Pro Music Apps

Leveraging 2 years of experience in designing GUI for control surface and 25+ years of experience in designing synthesizers sounds, we are bringing the best of those experiences to the iPad with iControlMIDI for Korg M1 / M1R / EX M1 / EX M1R, namely iM1R.

NOTE: PCM Card waves are not managed, Memory Mode is 100 Programs / 100 Combinations.

iControlMIDI is a UI Friendly and Workflow Efficient Solution that let you control your MIDI machines and software, simply from your iPad.

iControlMIDI is Plug & Play.
Whether you are in a computer-less workflow using a wired connection or you are in a computer workflow using a wired or wireless connection, iControlMIDI is a Plug & Play solution.

In a wireless connection, iControlMIDI uses your:
• iPad with WiFi connectivity
• WiFi router (like an AirPort)
• [MAC] MacOS / Utilities / AudioMIDISetup / Network (MIDI Network Sessions)
• [PC] rtpMIDI and Apple Bonjour

In a wired connection, iControlMIDI uses your:
• iPad
• iPad CoreMIDI compliant MIDI OUT interface (check our website FAQ Page for iControlMIDI qualified ones)
• MIDI IN physical port on your synth or on your computer MIDI interface or on your MIDI Patch Bay

iControlMIDI let you control the following MIDI controllable parameters (all PROGRAM parameters including OSC Mode Single, Double and Drums and FX1 / FX2; not the COMBINATION parameters).
Parameter Name and Value displayed on iControlMIDI UI are the same as the ones displayed on your synth if you were to program it from its control panel!

iControlMIDI offers 4-Controls per Parameter:
• Slider: full range parameter value adjustment for a ‘coarse’ workflow
• + button: precise +1 parameter value adjustment for a ‘fine’ workflow
• – button: precise -1 parameter value adjustment for a ‘fine’ workflow
• Parameter default value button: default parameter value for a faster workflow

iControlMIDI is a Workflow Efficient Solution as it offers UI Consistent Synth Functions, for example, the VCF functions are grouped on the same iControlMIDI Page.

iControlMIDI integrates with your DAW. Real-time parameters adjustments triggered on iControlMIDI can be recorded and playback on your DAW if your DAW supports MIDI Sysex (ex: Ableton Live does NOT support MIDI Sysex).

AK-7 Core is a wireless MIDI keyboard controller for iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch. It features a full-size realistic 3d piano keyboard which you can zoom and slide around to find the range of notes you want to play.

It works great with Apple’s Garageband, MainStage and Logic as well as any other DAW which supports MIDI input.

It also includes a switchable piano sound set for practicing anywhere without a MIDI connection.

There are options to change the view between 3d and 2d views, as well as standard MIDI options such as transpose, MIDI channel select etc.

Velocity is adjustable and is based on the position you hit each key. There are pitch bend and modulation sliders on the main screen too. (these only affect the MIDI output, not the onboard sound)

The wireless MIDI works using CoreMIDI so so additional drivers are needed on a Mac. Windows users will need to use a driver such as “rtpMIDI”.

On an iPad, it’s possible to use the Camera Connection Kit and a USB to MIDI cable to make a direct wired MIDI connection to your music workstation if there’s no wifi available.

Due to the smooth 3d graphics, it needs fairly modern hardware…

Supported devices:
iPad 1 and iPad2
iPhone 3GS or newer
iPod Touch 3rd generation or newer

If you are using an older device, we’d recommend you use our older “AK-7 Midi Keyboard” app instead.

From the land of the rising sun comes another quirky looking (and sounding) synth for iPhone, that offers very little in the way of details on exactly what it does.

I believe this is the free version, and a paid version is coming which will offer more sounds and drum loops.

How’s your hand at crafting all new sounds in Moog’s killer synth, Animoog? If you could use some new sounds without needing to get your hands dirty, here’s a tidy sounding collection that will only set you back $19.

Expand your Animoog! Luftrum is proud to present Luftrum 8 a new soundset for Animoog with 64 new presets covering a broad range of genres from Ambient to Dubstep with smooth ambient pads, wobbly basses, subtle drones, rhythmic sequences and organic sound effects such as a true budgie tweet, the hypnotic song of whales and the natural purr of a cat, but it’s not all zoo and the soundset contains plenty of non-animal presets, in the realm of sounds not before heard from the Animoog sound engine.

Luftrum 8 is compatible with both the iPad and iPhone version of Animoog and there’s an easy 3-step install instruction included, describing how to get the sounds onto your device.

Listen to the audio demo of the soundset -

Here’s the latest on what looks set to be a refreshing new take on boom box beat-making apps. Check the video for a great demo of it in action.

Stochastik is a full-featured Drum Machine with one outstanding difference. Unlike any other Drum Machine, Stochastik lets you set a *probability* that a note will trigger for each step. So, your basic beat can rock steady while accents and syncopation only happen every so often.

Once you add chance into the mix, you can generate thousands of unique variations *automatically* in the time it takes to sequence (one, two or four) bars. It’s as easy as programming a static loop but it generates a dynamic track — no more repetitive beats! Over a thousand of high-quality samples are included, from classic analog drum machines of the past to pristine acoustic jazz and rock kits. You can mix and match samples to create the perfect kit for each song. Plus, you can import your own samples through iTunes File Sharing, email or the Dropbox iPad App.

Stochastik was made to share, so you can collaborate with your friends by emailing or uploading your song, pattern and kit settings.

Stochastik plays well with other apps. When you bounce your pattern to a wav file, it’s automatically put in the clipboard for pasting into other apps. With WIST, you can wirelessly sync with other devices. With background audio, you can let Stochastik lay down the beat while you use a synth. MIDI is coming soon.

☞ Audio Features:
★ 15 Samples at a time, arranged in 3 banks of 5
★ Over a thousand included drum, cymbal and percussion sounds — acoustic, analog and digital. Learn more at http://stochastik.xitive.com/samples.html
★ 32 Voices so you will have plenty of polyphony
★ Bounce to 44.1Khz/16bit wav audio files
★ Background Audio – the audio will continue to play when you switch apps.
☆ Coming Soon: Export each drum as a separate track for mixing in your digital audio workstation

☞ Sequencing Features:
★ Stochastic programming of dynamic beats
★ As many Patterns, Songs and Kits as you can fit on your device.
★ Patterns can be 16, 32 or 64 steps long, and you can easily copy them to make tweaks.
★ Quick touch pads on sequencer screen for jamming, recording your beats and making quick tweaks
★ Sliders instead of knobs. I wish every music app got rid of knobs
★ Precise Entry (tap a number to bring up the keyboard) for maximum control over volume, pan, bpm and shuffle
☆ Coming Soon: Mute / Solo, Set Volume per step.

☞ Integration Features:
★ Import/Export wav files, songs, patterns and kits through Email, iTunes File Sharing, the Dropbox iPad App and more
★ AudioCopy & Pasteboard support to use your drum patterns in GarageBand, BeatMaker and other compatible apps.
★ Full “Open In…” support for working with other apps
★ WIST so you can wirelessly sync Stochastik with other devices – http://www.korguser.net/wist/

I don’t tend to get excited about musical tuner apps, besides let’s face it, there are already more than enough to last a lifetime. This one however looks to have a pretty comprehensive set of features, for a digital tuner anyway, including Core MIDI support, plus a Spectral Frequency/Overtone Analyzer and multi-function waveform display. Here’s a full run down on it -

TonalEnergy Tuner is an all-inclusive, easy to use application designed for individual practice and/or large ensemble rehearsals that aides musicians to improve sound quality and intonation. It is much more than just a tuner.
