App Recommendations, Now That Everything Is On Sale
Would appreciate recommendations for apps to accomplish 2 production techniques.
First, I'm working on a song that will feature a sampled voice saying just a one or two short lines, and wonder which apps could be used to mangle, generate alternatives, or just in general make a little content more interesting for 4 minutes. The song style is light, bouncy, humorous, more Max Headroom than horror film.
Second, I know a slew of new drum/percussion/sequencer apps have been released recently, in addition to apps like DrumPerfect. Which app produces the most (talented) human sounding parts that feature rolls and variations in sensible places, and... Can export MIDI (or stream it out) so that I could run other systems for sound sources if need be (apps or desktop software)?
I'm not trying to start a war over people's favorite apps, I've just been working a lot lately and have fallen out of regular music production, and need a little help getting going again. I guess a final criteria would be that hopefully the recommended apps will be pretty easy to learn because I don't have as much time for music making these days.
Thanks for any ideas you care to toss out.

I'm curious to see how folks respond to your second question re: drum rolls. I find Patterning to be the most intuitive and flexible drum machine/app out there. But others with more experience with drums will have to reply re: drum rolls and human sounding.
Re: your first question, I would be torn between Voice Synth and iVoxel. I prefer iVoxel because it works with audiobus and is pretty easy to set up for short content. Depending on what you do with it you can either use iVoxel itself or create a mangled sample and then send it to a sampler like Samplr or even to Patterning for further manipulation and triggering.
First: NanoStudio.... i used it for all my voice experiments!
Second: DrumJam with bedlam feature!
HOLD ON HOLD ON JUST A DAMN MINUTE THERE MISTER....
Erm. NanoStudio? Voice experiments? Any quick nudges or clues on where to start?
I did some remixes with voices, phrases with NanoStudio in my old times.
I loaded them just in Eden (sometimes the TRG). I also made my Diva Plava Laguna remix with it.
If someone offers some voice i would try to do it again
Sparkle is great for mangling voices.
Best iPhone guitar effects for $5?
Tonestack?
Sending as gift. I have tone stack and like it but haven't tried others.
I forgot about FluxFx for iphone. That is probably the one I will get even though not on sale at the moment.
Put a vocal sample into Eden. Then you have a full subtractive synthesizer with which to reimagine it. You can even rearrange it by using the Note Slice feature. That will be hit or miss though depending on the timing of the words within the same itself. You can assign 'sample start' to one of the XY pads or the knob and then automate your face off to rearrange it.
If you want to do Samplr style granular stuff, assign both sample start and sample length to XY pads. If you set the sample to loop and trigger a long held note via the sequencer, you can sort of play the XY pads just like Samplr but it's not as smooth. You can try messing with the envelopes a bit to soften the loops. Also, you could set another axis or the knob to control AMP Amount so that you can mess with the volume in real time.
+1 on Drumjam+bedlam too. Depending on the style you want, there's also the Rock Drum Machine family of apps. They sound great and do fills smashingly well.
