What was the first music app you bought for ios?
Loopy HD for me. I ran across a video of it on youtube. Buying it led me here to this forum.

Rebirth on sale for $6.99. Used to own both a 303 and 808 in the early 80's ...
GarageBand, but not for a particular reason.
Cubasis, as I already had the desktop version I thought it to make sense and be useful (heading off for holidays shortly after), turned out to be a good decision
Launchpad
FL Studio HD. Didn't get on with it. Then I got a Theramin App which was loads more fun. Then nothing for about 2 years when I discovered Gadget.
Wow, as I sit here looking at seven screens worth of mainly music apps not to mention countless others sent to "the cloud" to wait for another chance, I really no longer remember which ones came first. IMS-20 was early but I no longer remember which was first.
i808, closely followed by funk box. Funk box was very dodgy back then ... Couldn't even hold tempo !
I bought Imaschine and GarageBand in Iraq in 2011. I transitioned to big maschine when I got home since I had Logic/GarageBand before I deployed. Both apps sold me since I could take them to the computer and work on them. Been a fan favorite of both. Audiobus bridged that gap for me since I not home a lot then beatmaker from there and haven't looked back for daws on iOS.
Looking back through my purchase history looks like it was Music Studio way back when the iPhone 3GS was new.
Then Band - MooCow music
Then iGOG Massive drums - some strange outfit called WaveMachine
I actually had to check the purchase history in iTunes
First music apps I bought where a few of the iDrum apps by iZotope, that was in July 2009...
After that it took a few months and I got Rangrid Synth and Bass line, it's been 'downhill' from there, got almost 1300 apps now. A 128GB iPad would not be able to store them all if I tried re-installing them for testing and sadly many of them will most likely not even run on current iOS.
Thankfully iTunes doesn't keep track of the price they were purchased at, now that would be scary!
Sunrizer!
Back when there were few quality synths on iOS.
For $4 or 5 man was I excited. Kind of miss that original UI.
NanoStudio and ThumbJam..... and they belong still to the best!!
Mellotron XL.
I was tickled by the idea of it.
Animoog for me - it was just after it was launched and it was available for $0.99 if I remember correctly - how could anyone resist!
Thumbjam here. No buyer's remorse to this day!
original iMPC, then Figure, then iMS-20
Hammerhead drum machine. Anyone remember that one. Ran that on my iPhone3 back in '09.
Sunrizer first, then iSequence, Xewtons Music Studio and Animoog in that order.
Now I have all of them (almost, at least it feels like it) and the order is rather blurred.
IKaossilator, i bought it on an ipod touch at work. just had to buy my own ipad a couple days later.
I can't remember the app name. maybe you guys will remember. but it basically looked like a drum machine with like 6 pads. you could record audio to each pad and tap each of to play them back. it also had a second page that was more of a sequencer. And I remember you could import your own photos to make your own skins for the drum machine. I can't remember the name though. " beat.......something.
it was my first taste of how cool sampling could be.
NS, iMS-20
hmmm, long ago....
dont know, but thumbjam and animoog was one of the first music apps.....and nanostudio
and catch animoog for 69cent (or 79c) same as Filtatron, this i remember all the time when i see the actually prices,
hihi ;-)
Nanostudio.
TC-11
Back in 2011, Nano studio, shortly followed by Sunrizer. Still my most used apps today and I have almost all of the big ones.
Loopy. Spent the afternoon with it in the output slot yesterday.
Looks like the first two were NLog Synth Free and Technobox on an iPhone 3GS. After that they come fast and furious. LOL!
Alchemy, I think - which was free... I thought it was amazing...
I then did some research on what else was available which led me to the apps that the Gorillaz used on The Fall - from that list I bought things like:
Xenon (I got pretty into that)
Funk Box
Bassline
Dub Siren Pro
Soon after I bought Figure - which really got me going
This must have been around 2012/13... can't really remember.
Figure was the first, then audiobus as I was searching something to record my jams in GarageBand
Reactable Mobile and Korg iMS-20 as far as I can tell. Cat Piano must have come later
