Re-downloaded Alchemy and am enjoying it more than I recalled. Think I'll bite the bullet on the pro upgrade, especially after reading all the raves here. The morph board or whatever is a great idea, wish all the synth apps had that.
Does it ever have sales on the IAP? Somewhat related, do any of those appshopper type sites track IAP sales?
Also picked up Oscilab, pretty rad indeed!
I think Alchemy just did their first ever IAP sale not too long ago, not so sure we'll see another one for awhile.
Good to know, thank you.
Nave & Animoog
Animoog and TC-11
Stroke Machine (hoping for a mixer and a song mode) and Gadget (hoping for a sampling gadget)
And, of course, hoping that Mitosynth will make this list. It definitely has the potential.
Korg Gadget is the one I always open. I also Love Caustic, Thor and Addictive Synth. the arp in Addictive Synth always inspires me. I love Samplr too but I can never get things lined up right. Any suggestions?
Animoog layered with Sunrizer and played from StepPolyArp never ceases to inspire me!
Stroke machine is one that I'm interested in but I haven't heard enough about.Does anyone know how well it runs on iPad mini 1st gen?
Audiobus (of course) / Thumbjam / Drumjam / Animoog / Loopy / Samplr (but sadly too long no update) + Turnado!
What I like is already listed here, so nothing to extraordinary.
it's such a shame that the strange agency doesn't come up with anything anymore - they had amazingly strange ideas and wonderful interfaces
Oh, no one said ad 480 pro so I do and ivcs3 for its strange noises. Ad 480 is truly great, send trash in, get gold out.
Oh yes @lala !
+1 for AD-480 and for iVCS3... and for AUFX:Dub... and for Xynthesizr.... and for Seekbeats... and for, and for...
We are fortunate to live in the midst of SO MANY jewels !
I also have a lot of hope in MitoSynth. Now, only a few hours before finally know...

Yup...only I started making music in the 80's...when not only was it amazing to have an instrument(synth) where you could have so much control of the timbre, but in turn, use it to trigger other instruments of equal control. THEN be able to record and edit by note-by-note precision all of this glorious stuff.
People don't consider an iPad based music making system a "proper DAW." I used to do extensive production work with a Roland 880EX in the 90's(touted as the dream machine back then). I have so much more power now, there's no comparison.
Thumbjam, Animoog, and Samplr. In order of discovery and the place they fill in my heart ironically.
That's so true Thomas.I remember getting my first PC around 95 or 96.At the time my mates were using amiga's for drum and bass.I was just learning back then,no vst's or plugins that I can remember,I had cables running all over my room so I could sample from various sources.I remember it fondly but I'd hate to go back:-).I consider a ipad a proper workstation.Whenever I have this discussion about DAW's with my mate he always smiles and says,sure elvis never had no pro tools.Hard to argue with that:-)
One app which I don't believe has been mentioned yet is Phawuo. This synth is useful and always surprising. Interface is simple, sounds are unique. Cool morph feature. Good MIDI. I get lots of good textural stuff that leads to new ideas.
Xynthesizer can be very inspiring.
Another Alchemy inspired user here...also I have found much goodness by noodling around in GarageBand and Music Studio. In a way that's two worlds; exotic synth and then more traditional sounding emulated instruments of the latter two apps.
I recently discovered "Cotracks" and that is beginning to be a source of inspiration as well as a heck lot of fun to play.

Yep, missed that one somehow!
Nave and Gadget- and just experimenting with acoustic sounds with CSGrain
My two cents for this nice forum: I bought Ipad just 3 months ago and already d/loaded and tested almost hundred various music apps (BTW, ridiculous pricing for 99% of those apps (compared to Windows ones) is a real enigma for me
BUT only yesterday I finally got Samplr (after reading this thread! - thanx a lot, guys) and I must confess that for me this app is absolute winner immediately 
Though, sure, there are many others which I also praise high - e.g. Oscilab, Impaktor, superb Thumbjam, Sector, Gestrument, Earhoof etc. (I just named those, which have "obvious inspirational push")...
At a loose end this morning. fiddling about with an old Bobby Womack sample, and it dawned on me that the presets in AB are probably my most 'inspiring app'. Sometimes it's great to not noodle about, connect things, try and fail and try again, scroll through banks, open up a program that you've forgotten exactly how to get the most out of and so on and so forth. Sometimes it's just awesome to pick out something you know you were once excited about enough to save, run it up, and start playing/creating. I know, apple for teacher, but it's true.
Thumbjam,Drumjam, DM1, Samplr, Figure, Impaktor
I don't recommend Stroke Machine for an iPad 2 or original Mini. It will run, but runs out of voices too quickly. More satisfying on iPad Air. Great sound engine, not matched by an equally great sequencer.
Probably Safari. Gets me to all sorts of online inspiration. ;-)
My current Top 5 in my workflow in no special order:
Mitosynth
Cube Synth
Addictive Synth
Micro Tera
CrystalSynthXT (so deeeeep but a horrible layout and workflow)
In the past it was always Alchemy but i can't see it anymore as a synth on iOS since i can't create my own patches with it and the patch browser is a NoGo running my 5000+ patches on it. Still hoping really really for a full blown iOS version (they said the CPU is not powerful enough but i think the latest A7 should do it. I think they need at least 2-3 "working" generations for a bigger market eh').
Audulus is my new favorite app, I'll be busy for years literally!
