    Yes..if it had a "normal" sequencer..of course

    I'd imagine so many would turn to it

    It can make amazing music for sure and it hardly takes up device space

    The Dev is a genius to cram all that in a small space and just adds feature after feature

    Re: Sunvox - lots of praise here for it, but it is THE ONE that drives me bananas. @touchconspiracy laments the tracker aspect - could this app still do what it does with something like a more 'traditional' sequencer?

    Ages ago I actually watched a whole series of tutorials on SunVox yet..the tracker just puts me off

    Some of the best iOS music I've heard has been in SunVox

    I strongly believe and encourage those that stick with apps like this and master them

    It does have very serious synthesis potential too

    I was all Gadget at the start of the year. Now SunVox has become The One for me.

    I do understand that sentiment touch, but every app has at least one 'if only' as far as I can see. It's not so hard to work the tracker, or just record notes live, as @Littlewoodg mentions. I spend only a small amount of time entering notes as opposed to massaging the sounds and rhythms other ways that I don't see it as a hindrance. But I realise that may not be the case for other people's workflow. What i do try to tell people about is one of the most flexible/powerful synths and song construction tools on iOS, as well as it existing on virtually every other platform. It really is an amazing piece of work despite its shortcomings.

    Good post.

    Doesn't that statement alone inspire you to spend a bit more time with it?

    It's a bit like difference between a guitar and a piano. Each can do a sort of impression of the other, in a very basic fashion. But if you want the full effect of either you have to spend significant time learning. I'm talking a few months gaining the familiarity/muscle memory and fluency to learn the tracker inside-out, but that is nothing in a lifetime of making music.

    Or you could just cheat. Create some basslines, chords, melodies in Gadget then export them as MIDI and open them in SunVox as a starting point..

    No, im afraid to say

    I spent hours and hours with it..the ui is too cluttered for me too

    Ive settled with gadget and am currently focusing on ids10 which im enjoying....but i also await nanostudio 2.. Which may or may not materialise, its been 1.5 years since matt said it was in the works lol

    Again, sunvox is a great app, just not suited to my kind of workflow despite its amazing sounds and possibilities

    Link me to your soundcloud tho please?

    Ok fair enough. I understand that we all have our own ways of working. Me, I can't get on with traditional DAWs at all. Something too regimented/stifling about them.

    Link me to your soundcloud tho please?

    I'm not sure you will find much to like and it's 50%+ SOTMC-uh stuff that you've probably heard already, but here's the link anyway:

    @Brain you can play Sunvox without using the tracker at all. It receives MIDI so just setup whatever MIDI sequencer you'd like to send MIDI to Sunvox. There is a lot of control over how to setup MIDI in Sunvox and which modules you trigger with MIDI as well.

  • touchconspiracytouchconspiracy

    Cool track titles! You must be influenced by eno and byrne

    I like your stuff actually..ur expressing some interesting ideas :)

    My favorite new app is Audulus 3 and while I like and use AnalogKit as well, I find the power and ability to create complex audio work flows is even more attractive for me.

    I wouldn't say they were direct influences but I've always liked their work and I'm sure they have contributed some ingredients to the pot.

    Thank you. Often surprises me who enjoys my material, but then I don't make music anything like the stuff I listen to either.

  • TozBourneTozBourne

    So many great new apps in 2015, but it's no surprise that I put SynthMaster Player at the top of my list. I'm late to the Patterning party (recently purchased) but I'm loving it and see why its such a huge success. KORG's iM1 is another of my top favorites for this year. And not to forget BeatHawk, a fantastic app that took me a while to get into, but once I spent some time with it, I fell in love!

  • hellquisthellquist

    Fave app of the year: Auria Pro. As it is so good I also decided to invest in (almost) all the FabFilter plug-ins (not Micro or DS) + Drumagog. Amazing value for money, all of it. Has replaced quite a few of the apps I used to use.

    Just as a sidenote (given the thread discussion), I have Sunvox as one of my all-time fave apps, ever. It makes me create music. I don't use the tracker (though I promise myself every year this is the year I'll learn it), I mainly use it as a synth/sound source or, quite often, as a (very competent) effects unit. It can turn anything into cool sounds (including images). Love it. Definitely on my Top10 list of apps ever, as it is so versatile. :)

    Yeah it's definitely versatile like that. I wish it had some options for syncing with other apps. There is a feature request for Ableton Link on the warmplace.ru forum so we will see if anything comes of that.

    Thank you. I've followed you back on soundcloud and will give your music a good listen over the next couple of days.

  • BrainBrain

    My only experience with trackers was from years ago, and it wasn't even the trackers themselves - I was more interested in the results (I even copied one tune named 'Apocalypse' practically sound-for-sound on the XP-50 because I liked it so much). I can't say I ran into a lot of tracks I thought were good pieces, but it seems like there were/are a lot of schleppers out there composing not-so-great tracks... which I suppose goes with the territory.

    But I sure hate the idea of missing out on what seems to be a great app.

    We all say that at some point ;)

    I enjoyed listening, there were some great tunes.

    Difficult one really .... i know the one thats been the most fun and produces instant gratification ... Auxy for ipad.

    Right, still slightly OT, but somewhat relevant to the SunVox thread of this discussion:

    I came across this article earlier today (via FB iPad Musician Group), which was timed nicely for the SunVox discussion in here: http://tapeop.com/reviews/gear/110/sunvox-modular-music-studio/

    Also, I love seeing the man, the myth, the legend, the concept, Mr Zolotov himself, create tracks in SunVox:

    For those who don't want to sit through the entire process (27 min) you can obviously jump forward, but it is really good information in how he sets it all up in there if you are at all interested in SunVox. :)

    Wow - thanks @hellquist - that's a really interesting video! I learned something about SunVox there. :+1:

  • audiblevideoaudiblevideo

    @hellquist and others I know that he's using the computer version of SunVox, but I could never figure out how to record melodies or the mods of in the iPhone with that efficiency... Any tips?

    Not an app per se but Link...

    As for actual app, it's Studiomux, followed closely by AB Remote.

    Just utilities, but they've made iOS useful to me in more than just a, passing the time on an airplane, sort of way.

  • JocphoneJocphone

    Thanks for the video @hellquist I had seen the article, I thing @Littlewoodg posted it last week.

    It's funny, that video could be quite intimidating to someone new to SunVox, especially without any spoken explanations and I must admit I got lost in a couple of places.

    Saying that I hadn't tried recording parameter changes with the record function, thought it was only for notes, so I learned something new.

  • WillWill

    I haven't tried lots of new apps this year, and it's hard to remember what the first few months brought us exactly, but I think MIDI Steps is my fave. Patterning is brilliant but it replaced good existing drum machines where as Midi Steps is basically it's own beast. I also leaned a lot more hardware this year so it sorta makes sense that a midi sequencer would be up top for me.

    Have yet to try Auria Pro, AB remote (other than a quick test), DS-10, M1... Loads of stuff.

  • Matt_Fletcher_2000Matt_Fletcher_2000

    AB Remote is great. Especially with Patterning or Electric drums.

    Let's you tweak your drum machine on another screen while you synth it up on the main screen.

  • touchconspiracytouchconspiracy

    Curious as to ur thoughts on ids10 matt

    Have u tried it?

    I guess the IDS-10 would be a great instrument if only it had MIDI.

    My vote goes to Cyclop.

    I began my iOS music production journey in Feburary of this year after my wife got me an Air 2.
    I had used some music making apps on my Android phones over the years but they really do pale in comparison to the quality and scope of the Apple apps. With the Air 2 being my first iOS device it made the older apps seem just as inspiring to be honest.

    My top are Auria Pro, Patterning, DrumPerfect and Neo Soul Keys.

    Auria is the backbone of my demo/home studio now and I am continually blown away that I can carry a full blown DAW around on a small slate; Patterning is great for making spontaneous drum grooves and stuff needing that drum machine feel while DrumPerfect can be used to create full on, multi sample layer acoustic drum tracks with individual outs and Neo Soul Keys just has the most realistic suitcase Rhodes I have ever heard.
