Gonna have to watch this vid later but I already agree with the premise. I’ve seen kids on Reddit asking how to make it work on a budget and I keep trying to tell them iOS is the way to go.
It really is! I can’t believe what we have access to on these little devices, and for the prices. Incredible times we live in.
I don't even know what qualifies as a beat.
Just ask anyone with a phone
I don't think you understand my life.

Thanks for sharing, great video, and turned me on to some great plugins, especially Morphit.
Lol, I got most of the stuff he mentions... cept NS2, but I got me a Cubasis3. Can I still make a beat?
Not a chance. First you must learn to dance... seriously. I have this from a known authority:
I can cite the exact location but the whole video has value for everyone here.
Nice video! I need to pick up morphit and been loving your ns2 kits!
This is great..although wondering why he uses GarageBand? Is there something there that I’m missing? Lol
It's not as fully featured as a lot of other apps, but I think it's actually very under-rated myself. They have some great sounds and a fairly easy workflow once you understand the approach it takes. I certainly prefer other apps out there myself, but if all I had was Garageband and my iPhone, I don't think it would hold me back that much.
Though it would likely slow me down some too
Seriously, what constitutes a beat?
The way I understand it, a beat is what the kids call something that contains a bass line, a riff and an actual beat.
But it’s the other way around for the 808.
This is what they call a low-pitched sine wave.
Whippersnappers are oblivious to all the sounds of the iconic TR-808 and they should stay off my lawn.
I think it's fine to use the word beatmaking if it refers to stuff with a hip hop influence but it shouldn't be used to refer to making electronic music in general. I think that helps avoid confusion. It probably became a catch-all phrase because it can be used as a one-word gerund.
Maybe in a few years, they’ll be calling all generated sounds “iPads”.
“I like the sound of your iPads. Did you use an iPhone to create them?”
It's amazing what can be done on just an iPhone. No excuses!
I very rarely read/post in topics that are not related to Cubasis, GB, SynthMaster and maybe StaffPad.
Here is what beat vs song - watch from 16:00
Agreed - with like more automation, and a mix bus, it’d be super awesome. I still use it from time to time depending on what I’m working on.
It’s funny, I had never thought to just use a pop filter in front of the iPhone mic, that Steve Lacy video was a good share.
Thanks. I think I get it. Percussion, bass, something melodic. Put it into a song format that enables cutting into section to make your own song structure, done. Is it mostly for a particular genre or are people doing this for all sorts of music?
I like GB a lot. Great sounds in there and the midi editor is easy to use.
This guy uses a lot of the presets & smart instruments:
@BroCoast Interesting stuff. Does he use iPhone/iPad in the process? Only found a reference to GarageBand/Logic.
I don’t think he is using mobile, I just recognise a lot of the presets.
