Rhythm Pad for iPad
Published June 13, 2012 | 
Rhythm Pad is a drum machine app for your iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad. It comes in a conventional drum machine layout with a series of drum pads and a preset library of drum kits. The kits range from acoustic to more abstract kits like Trip Hop and Chemical.
Notable features include: realistic hi-hat expression, position sensitive pads (sound louder when struck in the center), independent volume control for each pad, looping control and adjustable time signature settings.
There are two versions of Rhythm pad available – a free version with advertisements and another version for $2.99 without the advertisements.
This is a cool app worth checking out. Our only gripe is that it’s missing the ability to record and export work, but hopefully an update will bring those vital necessities.
DM1 Drum Machine for iPad
Published January 29, 2012 |
DM1 is a classic drum machine for your iPad. It is comprised of a traditional step sequencer, a drum pad section, a mixer, an arranger, and X/Y FX pads. You can manually input grooves via the seqencer or record a performance using the drum pad section. Automatic quantization makes it easy to create beats on the fly. No need to record a groove, stop playback, hit quantize, then start playback up and keep working. Simply lay down a groove and keep building without ever breaking stride.
