Pianist Pro for iPad
Pianist Pro is a virtual piano for the iPad. Its’ predecessor/counterpart – Pianist is a well known app for the iPhone and MooCow takes it even further with the iPad. It comes with 16 different instruments, an arpeggiator, a drum machine and on-board effects. Virtual instruments range from drums to synths and more. You also get a sustain pedal and velocity based key striking to give your creations some realism.
Select a musical scale or define your own and never play a bad note. Choose from a wide range of scales. The built-in arpeggio has some pretty flexible parameters – most notably is the ability to program in your own arpeggiated rhythms. Amongst many other features you can import and export MIDI arrangements as well.
This app does a great job of appealing to casual and music professionals alike. Pianist Pro not only lives up to its’ successful predecessor but also exceeds it in many ways. At a price tag of $4.99 you get some real bang for your buck.
