Yes, Koala Sampler. Sorry@tja, I normally post a link when mentioning an app in a new context, but for some reason I thought you already had it. There's a "Get Live Light" menu item in the app. This doesn't appear in the free MacOS native app.
I know there are other iOS apps that offer this, but darned if I can remember which ones right now.
Everyone should own Koala!
You don't have to actually use it. But you do need to own it to truly be a complete person.
You can take it out every few months and spend an hour or two changing out the background image.
It's a chick magnet and an excellent colon cleanser as well, but we won't go there ...
Kidding aside ... Indeed, Loopy Pro has taken a dent out of how much I use Koala. Still, the experience is similar - quick assembling of looped parts. Koala also loads samples, so if you have a library of sounds, it's a quick way to make use of them. It's also fun to get a pattern going and then play with the built-in FX over it.
It's an app to casually have fun with, not to take overly serious, for me. Though some people do take it quite seriously and do a lot with it.
TriqTraq and maybe Korg Gadget also had Lite licenses.
And this is some useful info too
I’m using Blocs Wave and Groove Box and I like them so much; they can also play in sync with Live using the Link function. Cool
I’ve never used Loopy Pro, sorry… Is it worthy?
In BW I particularly like the random function, to generate some new stuff, and the export to Live kit function, as I own Live too…
Sorry for your troubles with Cubase :-( I’ve been using it since the ‘Atari days’ and I’m used to it and comfortable with, it’s really very powerful (pro version, I mean).
I don’t like Garage Band too, and I found Waveform 11 too cerebral, while I worked with a person using Digital Performer and I think it’s still a possible very good choice
@tja I’m also evaluating some desktop DAWs in the light of finishing something that I started on the iPad, for instance a track made in Korg Gadget. It‘s probably good to know that with Bitwig you can also open Ableton Live projects.
This is good on setting up a new install for Reaper:
The ReaperBlog and Kenny Gioia videos are really good if you have any questions, or even want to see what Reaper is capable of.
Another thing in Reaper's favour is you get access to a ton of user created plugins. Some of which are every bit the equal of commercial offerings. For example there are a couple of really nice EQs (one very similar UI to fabfilter), some great analog modelled filters and even some synths (e.g. the legendary PADSynth, which some may remember from Caustic). The UIs aren't always as good as commercial stuff, but they sound good. I find most of my plugin needs are covered by these and AirWindows plugins.
@tja
Inspired by this thread I ended up reinstalling Reaper, Live Lite and Reason Lite
Trying to follow your journey
Gonna try
Will probably try to play with apps that export ableton sessions, send to PC and commit to reaper.
Not sure yet
no more, they used to have an Intro version too (which I have, also good and useable as a plugin in other daws)
I'm curious but I'm trying to manage different apps like BlocsWave, Groovebox, Launchpad and - my main ipad app - Cubasis, that released the 3.4 version I downloaded today... I'll put in the list
I often do this, exporting from Cubasis to Cubase 11 pro, that has a specific function for that...
Never say never... ;-)
