Classical Guitar for iPad
Published October 12, 2011 | 
Introducing Classical Guitar – a cool virtual guitar for the iPad. Not only is it an effective learning tool but it also makes playing a breeze. By holding your iPad much like you would a guitar you can strum or pluck strings with one hand and trigger chords with another hand. This app also has functions similar to that of Garageband’s Smart Guitars – when you’re dialed into a certain key it’s impossible to play a bad note. A person with little musical ability can play a decent nylon string guitar with Classical Guitar. It also supports left hand players – for those of you who are worried. Did I mention the app is free?

Published October 12, 2011 |
Slynthy is a brand new app recently developed by Mitchell Cichoki for the iPad. It’s a monophonic synthesizer you play by sliding your finger. It’s very basic in its features as there is only a few sounds, but nonetheless for $.99, the app does make some quirky noise.

FL Studio Mobile HD for iPad
Published October 11, 2011 |
As a happy Mac owner I have long resented Image-Line for not creating a Mac version of FL Studio, which is a great production suite to own if you have a PC. With that being considered, I am glad to see them step into the world of iOS and do so successfully.

Published October 11, 2011 |
Released late last year by IK Multimedia this iPad music app has been gaining steam ever since. Now bolstering even more features than its highly respected predecessor – Amplitube 2 – is more powerful than ever.
My first experience with Amplitube was several years ago when I purchased it as an audio processing plug-in for my DAW. It was a good multi-effects processor for guitar then and is an even better one now. The simple the fact that I can have access to it on an iPad, which I can easily take anywhere, is super cool.

Developed by Limelight Software, Aurora is a musical sequencing program for your iPad (also available for iPhone and iPod Touch). It doesn’t have recording capabilities but could be considered a complete production suite as it does give you the necessary tools to compose a full musical arrangement.

Published October 11, 2011 |
Garageband for the iPad is a fun, mobile, musical tool. It doesn’t have the in-depth capabilities of a major desktop DAW, but is still very effective and cool within its own realm.
It is perhaps the most fun and easiest to use. A person with little if any musical talent could still have fun creating music with Apple’s Garageband for iPad and make some decent tunes too.
