APP

[Whitten]

I’m loving all the iPhone and iPad apps.
But I’d love a Toontrack app, something that would actually be useful and in use daily, rather than a gimmick.
What about an App that plays a demo sound of every drum in the entire Toon product list? You could audition drum sounds on the bus going to work.
Audition drums from products you don’t own yet too.
I have the Beatport app, and I can audition songs anywhere using my iPhone. I can drop songs I want to buy in my cart, then download them at a later time on my regular computer.

Anyone got alternative Toon App ideas?

I think a basic Toontrack kit with touchscreen MIDI recording would be more productive. You could then import the MIDI into PT or Logic or whatever when you get to the studio. Even if it couldn’t record, it’d be fun and perhaps still productive to be able to play drums on the iPhone.

BTW, I don’t own a smartphone. But I can dream, can’t I? LOL

There are other apps that do that by the way.
Still, it’s a decent idea for a Toon App.

I think an app that would let you tap in a beat and email or have available via sync the resulting MIDI file would be cool.could also piggybackoff of the built-in microphone to record a melody.

I prefer not to create midi on a small tap interface. I like the pre-made midi, or midi created on a drum kit style unit (v-drum).
And in case you haven’t looked on the Apple App store, there are numerous beat creation apps, some with kit graphics, others with pads. They have realistic sounds and metronomes etc….. So to me, that’s a crowded market place.

But that’s two votes for midi creation so far.
