 First, I would like to apology for the slow down this week... I have some trouble with my Internet connection.... I had the video demo to the KRFT post... I love this App... The App of the day: Elastic Drums... 4 new Synthetiser and more... Peraphs that if I was able to buy an App to try it the App of the day should have been Replicant 2... Have a nice day or night depending of where you are! My best Ed Kap!

 Review by Ed Don't be frightened by the word "modular" and don't take the leak by looking at the length of this tutaorial ... you would pass next to an extraordinary App, and the worst, super easy to use.!
 I don't know if you know KRFT... This App is just Awesome! Peraphs that some of you can be afraid by "modular"... But don't be, because even if it is a modular music production surface, it's also a midi sequencer that you can understand 1 minute after you had downloaded KRFT from the App Store... After, if you like, you will be able to use all the awesome features include in it... I will post the review this night or tomorrow morning for the people living in the East side of the earth... |

There are quite a few apps in the Apple Store that allow you to create your Pro tablatures for guitars. Big apps and smaller ones... good and bad ... For the big Apps, Motion is for me the most complete, the most powerful ... for the smallest ... I did not have A choice until today. So, every time I need to write a tablature quickly, I go into the App Store and downlaod for the hundredth time a dozen Apps ... If I don't I download directly Motion, Jam Maestro or others big Apps, it's because these Apps even if they are great, are a little bit too much "gas factories"... result of races, most of the time I write my Tabs on a piece of paper ... and lost them... but it was until today ... Tabs X "little" is really great, it allows you to write a Pro Tab in 5 minutes, (look at the video demo if you have a doubt ...) the sound of the clear guitar as well as the distorted one is really not bad, in addition Tabs X allows you to save your tablatures on a dedicated server or on your Cloud Drive. You can export a pdf and a midi file... Maybe its only weakness would be its lack of playing technique, for solos for example, but because of my old age now, I switched to the classical guitar, so this App is perfect for me ... A litle but Killer App!
An Android version and a Mac OS version are also available. The Mac OS version was released yesterday and its price will be $1 during the 5 first days. The Mac & the iOS are sync together.

When I made the review of SeekBeats, I add a dream...
My dream was exhausted with the release of the 1.2 version. Since this time the developer never stopped to update his baby.
SeekBeats is an awesome Drum Synthetiser, really...
A KILLER App! A Must Have!
At this moment the price of SeekBeats dropped from 11.99 to 6.99, a good opportunity for those who don't have this App...

Have you come across this Drum Machine? I hadn't until yesterday,... And it is a major blunder because this Drum Machine is simply great! 8 tracks for 8 drum instruments or... Yes, or... Because you will be able to shape your sound like if you were working on a synthesizer: 2 oscillators, 1 Filter, 1 distortion and a chorus. You can also choose your waveform, and work (Draw) on the envelope. At the end, when once you're happy with your sound, you wiil be able to copy it and / or save it to the (big) sound library. If you didn't manage to create a sound that you like, you have even even use the random mode. This mode allows you to randomize the sound of each track at the sale together or separately. You can also decide the level of variation, if it will affected by all the parameters or only some of them... If you hear something that you like, take a snapshot of the current settings. A Pad mode is also available. The X axe will determine the level of your drum. A live record mode is also available. To conclude, I really love it, and am keeping it. My only wish would be to have Virtual Midi in a future update. A Killer + Drum Machine! PLEASE NOTE: REQUIRES iPhone 4S or faster. iPod Touch 5th generation (4 inch display) or faster.

When I started my review of applications for djs, I used to say that you were going to have to deal with the worst dj of all the galaxy ... I believe that this video is the real proof of this...
DJ Dex has not been updated since this version, that to say end of 2013 ... at the time it was not a Super App, today it is better to zap it...

Apps4idevices review:
DJ DEX - The DJ Mixing App is a "Classic" Dj App. Its highlights are its simplicity of use, the Auto Detect BPM feature, MotionPlaying™: place your iPad on a turntable and scratch any song (requires an iOS device with a gyroscope) and a very nice UI. Its shortcomings: the effect section. No parameters to set, no small or big Pad, just 3 buttons to push. To conclude, DJ DEX is very well done but a little bit limited. A good App.

- this blog is man by a human for humans
- I can make some mistakes (because I am a human)
- Nothing will deleted or removed from this blog. For my mistakes or angers, apologies and corrections will be added if needed.
- You can see everyday on a banner in the What's hot today post the Apps offered by a developer...
- If you participate to the Sunday Contest, you will have to trust in me... But, if you like you can asked me the email list of the readers who participate to a Contest included Time and Date. I will send it to you...
- My rating... The first criterion is the App Store description. The last one is my taste and this is totally subjective... Each post come with a tutorial showing you all the knobs, menu, faders,.... Everything that you will be able to find in an App... I hope that this will help to make your own rating.
- If I really don't like an App, don't understand it or found too many bugs, I send an email to the developer.... I asked him if the App will be update shortly, I also offer my services as Beta Tester.... Most of the time, I will wait for a future update... Developers are humans too!...
- All comments will be publish here. For insults, offenses or very bad mood, the only restriction is that you have to sign with your real name...
- I don't know... Peraphs that I will add something later.
