  • according to purchase records on the store page it was Harmonic Dog's Multitrack DAW
    still in contious use for tracking, in particular live stuff (mic/instrument) B)

  • Audio Mastering. It must have been on sale.

    I downloaded a handful of free apps beforehand (GarageBand, Nanologue, Little MIDI Machine, Music Studio Lite, SIDPAD).

  • Legendary NanoStudio, oh yeah, it was TEH APP that was like daw in a way that you could make complete tracks in it, it was a great start. Maybe wasnt the first, but was the first game changer imo.

    iElectribe, i still havent used it seriously. In some ways bleep!Box was more cool. As iElectribe is ER1 imitation, we thought Korg will do EMX/ESX app after that...

  • According to my list I bought NS and IMS20 on the same day as I bought MS. Still use the first two and am proud of them like gangly sons who won't ever leave the house and that's OK. MS is off in the attic somewhere. It's not that I'm ashamed of it so much as I think of it as something from another era, a perm my wife had once maybe or some unsuitable shirt. Deep down I suspect (late at night when low on confidence) that maybe it still has a lot to offer, but I never say its name aloud no more.

  • That thou canst never once reflect,
    On old long syne.

  • @qmishery
    Jr hexatone was the naughty swear word, still pine for it, got it on my air 2, so I can load it up and gaze upon its bitmapped glory.

  • Soundprism Pro baby! I love my Triadic harmonies!

  • Figure.. then they made the damn thing free!

  • Looptastic by soundtrends. Was awesome that app. Sad that soundtrends are no mores

  • Caustic on an android phone and that inspired the ipad purchase and a paid for version of Caustic. And wouldnt you know it i bought a boat load of apps and still use Caustic the most.

  • Shiny Drum was my first music creation app back in 2009. It was a simple 12 pad grid and you could change out the kits. Things have changed tremendously since then.

  • Touchable mini.

  • Oh, it was probably Garage Band. Then the revelation was upon me, and I came across TheSoundTestRoom. Happy days.

    Yes, SoundTrends! Thanks for this reminder, studioHD was probably my second purchase - after ISequence - the day I got iPad 1 (checking my AppStore purchased list wouldn't show it since it's gone gone gone).
    I still have all the .ogg loops from Soundtrends IAP and still have metaDJ and studioHD on my device.

    iSequence HD and studioHD both basically blew my mind, and I never recovered. And the apps of course got even more mind blowing in the 6 years since those first purchases.
    I was using iSequence today. Now I'll have to open studioHD...

    Yer studioHD was awesome. Reminded me of Ejay for p.c. I believe they were ahead of there time. Wish I had kept those apps. Imagine if those apps had stayed and got audiobus ,link etc.

    Me too. I recall peeing myself.

  • First app I bought was Soundprism - It was the reason I even "thought" I could create something musical...... I always wanted to play an instrument and thought it as something only a god could do..... After seeing it I realized that there was 12 keys in a octave and 7 note to each scale (in basic form).... At the time I thought Mozart hadn't figured this secret out !!
    ---- it started my quest to create something and soon after I bought Animoog and connected SoundPrism to it...... I thought I had discovered something that Steve Jobs himself couldn't have done......using Soundprism to play Animoog.... Ingenious !!!
    ---- I eventually realized that if I set the scale in Animoog to the same scale in Soundprism I would be in scale in both instruments - I was falling just short of Einstein at this point!!

    ---- then came DM1 - some of the drum sequences rivaled John Bonham..... I was a drum machine fool - it was months (probably a year) when I realized it had a song mode - yes I lost a few friends forcing them to listen to my incredible continuous loops of "amazing" drum machine madness (they didn't understand or appreciate good music !!!)

    ----- then cubasis and audiobus came out and I bought both about the same time - I watched every tutorial and video on them and began recording layers of some of the greatest music recorded - real innovative and revolutionary stuff - and yes - I lost a few friends...again - they just didn't appreciate good music !!!!

    ---- long story short - I have never create a song so to say..... I know nothing about playing an instrument really... I read this blog everyday and have followed Doug Woods and haQ from the beginning... I have enjoyed the discovery of playing something - good or bad.
    ---- It is because of the huge amount of information and excitement that people have shared on this site that I have continued to try and develope in creating something (yes - maybe a song one day)..... Thank you all for sharing everything and being available to questions - I think the iPad has opened a door for people to find a way to create something musical and discover how to do it..... In the spirit of the Holidays and the new year I want to thank everyone for the advice and comerodery - I for one am so appreciative..

  • January 2011 bought Keynote, Reactable Mobile and Korg iMS-20 for my iPad 1. The excitement of owning an MS-20 all those years after standing too long staring at the real thing, with it's vocoder sibling in the window of a music shop in Stoke on Trent, trying to work out how I might live without beer, fags and food for the next year and trying to persuade my flatmate of the need to do same, was almost too much. I never did buy the real thing, although I did snag the smaller guitar version in an old box in the corner of a shop in drum that had no idea what it could be used for. But besides all that, having an MS-20 on something that resembled a quality magazine felt like I had finally got my jetpack, flying car, robot dog..

  • It appears to have been Cat Piano. It can still wind dogs up :).
    Next seems to have been Music Studio.

  • What an interesting quest this became! Looking on iTunes gave me one answer, but going to my purchase history in the App Store gave me another.

    My first musical "purchase", though it was free, was Steinway Metronome.

    Then shortly thereafter, on 12/22/2011 I see Animoog for Iphone v. 1.0, which was my first real purchase ever of an IOS app @ $1. Everything up to that point had been free.

    The thing that makes this interesting is that I am finding that I purchased all kinds of app that I didn't remember! Shredder for iPhone and Rhythm Studio being the first two I see. I'm going to have to go back and see what I've deleted and try them again now that I have a bit more experience.

  • good luck on that one - after Apple not only literally burned all bridges to the past >:)

  • Literally?

    1. A piano app
    2. A beat player app

    And the I got serious: NLog Free Synth and technoBox

  • Music Studio by Alexander Gross when I got my first Apple product, a 4S.

  • Anyone remember iSyn? nice solo in video btw

    Also, MooCow's Band, from 2008...



  • Hammerhead drum machine.

  • If I remember rightly, it was Bebot, followed quickly by Nanostudio.

    Hey Blip Interactive, what's happening with Nanostudio 2??? I guarantee there's a ton of people here who would just love some word on progress!

  • It seems I purchased Filtatron first

  • edited December 2016

    ThumbJam - Nodebeat - Figure

    actually it was Midi Synth then the above...
