Ableton Simpler on IOS????
I have been messing around with Simpler in Ableton Live. With its recent update, its pretty amazing what all you can do with it.
Is there any IOS apps that are similar to it? I could not think of any off the top of my head.

Samplr, I suppose. Ish.
But yeah, the new Simpler is fantastic, particularly with a Push 2.
@Michael_R_Grant I go back and forth with Samplr. I have fun with it for a while then I get frustrated.
I used a recording of my percolator coffee pot and made a cool sounding synth sound. It would be pretty awesome to have simpler on my iPad. Or if the the drum rack existed, which has 128 simplers, that would be awesome too.
Here is the coffeesynth sound.

I think your coffee pot needs service.
Here is the original sound of the coffee pot. Its a percolator coffee pot. Old school but it makes the best coffee.

I've only recently bought Live suite and have only just gotten around to trying Simpler, it's fantastic yes although not sure what's changed from the older version. You can access Simpler via Touchable on the iPad but have only tried for a few minutes and don't really know where I am with Touchable yet either.
There are only a few apps that do any chromatic sampling. All of them lack necessary features. Some that come to mind are: ThumbJam (probably the best app of the bunch, in general), SampleWiz (seldom updated but a solid single-sample player), Sir Sampleton (VERY basic, but dead easy to use. Extremely short sample time).
I can recommend iPulsaret which feels a bit like Simpler when in Sample mode
Think Nanostudio's Eden is actually the closest thing on iOS to Live's Simpler, features and 'in use' wise. The big thing it's missing when compared to Simpler is 'warping' or time stretching and transient based slicing (Eden does slice but it's time based). Beatmaker's sampler keyboard is pretty close feature wise as well but it's missing some of the synthesis stuff.
I don't think anything exists in either software (including iOS) or hardware that can warp (realtime timestretch) while slicing like Simpler can now do as of Live 9.5.
looks like the new Pioneer Sampler is going to do just that.
egoist for slicer
It is on my instant buy list (when I win the lottery ). Checking constantly the site for a manual to see sp-16's power.
Amazing app. Too bad you can't assign midi CC on slice parameters.
Roland VP-9000 and v-synths are the only hardware pieces I am aware of ,for time stretch .
Sampling wasn't attractive with those 16/32 gb devices.
But now that has changed. Someone will do it.
(Maybe it will also have an adjustable root key ^^)
Some of us made records on samplers with only 1.44mb floppy drives you know!
^^ we also used to edit waveforms on a numeric display
Wasn't much fun, was it?
It was terrible. Some were by ear only. Wouldn't be too bad with modern touches like snap to zero and audition loop point (start just before the end and play through the loop).
Pitch down to hear where the sample starts, I remember ^^
