Bumping this thread to see if anyone is running an iPad for decent quality realtime reverb on an incoming stereo signal?

In other words, something to load and allow to use the whole of the iPad's resources to treat it as a reverb box with a great interface.

I came across Altispace (and got it confused with Altiverb for a brief OMIDOG! moment) but haven't yet tried it.

Thoughts?

What about a playable Guitar app? I don't mean like pedal boards, effects and pre-recorded guitar loops and stuff but an app with actual Guitar patches so I can play MY OWN melodies.

There are some good ones for Piano, but i've yet to find an acceptable one for Acoustic guitars. Any suggestions?

Jam Maestro is AMAZING! I used it until I was able to pick up a used axe.

Here are my current 2020 TOP 5 by category.

1) DAW: N-Track Studio Pro - $29.99.

Very close between n-Track and Beatmaker 3 in performance, but I prefer the flow of n-Track. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/n-track-9 ... 1160793386

2) Drum Machine: Patterning 2 - $19.99.

Immediately fell in love with the circular motion and new way of thinking about drum patterns. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/patternin ... 1332154350

3) Synth: Moog Model 15 - $29.99.

I feel a description is unnecessary. It's as good or better than you're expecting it to be. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/model-15- ... 1041465860

4) Guitar Amp: Bias Amp 2 - $19.99 (unlocked).

The entire suite from Bias is super high quality, some of you may already use the desktop versions. Incredible sound design and extremely versatile. Even better when you unlock the other apps in the series, as they work together to design your sound.

5) MIDI: Aftertouch - $2.99 (seems to be discontinued), substitute with Expression Pad - FREE.

Aftertouch is incredible and has configurable 3D touch (X,Y,Z axis) for pitch, mod, etc. So fun to use and is versatile enough to do just about anything. Since it seems to have disappeared from the app store, expressionpad is a close runner up. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/expressio ... 1198834918

6) Bonus: touchAble Pro - $29.99.

I LOVED the first version of touchAble, even though it hardly ever worked! This new version is much smoother and it offers total control of ableton live 10 sessions. Whether you're mixing, doing sound design, or performing live... this app slaps. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/touchable ... 1205967746

ElasticDrums. An awesome drum machine that's perfect for workshopping beats.
Garage Band. It's really good. It is way better than any DAW deserves to be running on a fanless ARM computer with no fan and 3GB of RAM.
Pro Metronome. I'd been looking for a half-decent one for some time - this doesn't try to give you a cute UI that doesn't work properly, has more features than you can shake a stick at and actually does the bloody job.

I find Envelope by DDMF to be a fantastic sounding and simple to use reverb. Also AUM Space is great but more menus. Use AUM as the host to run the reverb.

Animoog Z has just come out which is an updated version.
You get basic use for free and the option to pay to unlock everything.
What really helps is they also have a wrapper that allows VST3 and AU versions to run on a DAW.
Not sure as not on PC, but it runs very well on my Mac
If you pay to unlock anything this transfers to the wrapper version.

Synth One continues to amaze and inspire, been away from home, and recorded a couple of tracks already with just this synth, and the handy built-in recorder, the sounds are really mysterious, could be anything, very organic, and, it’s free, unbelievable.

This topic was duplicated and made sticky in both this forum and the Mac forum. To avoid confusion I've decided to lock the topic here and leave a link to the equivalent in the Mac forum.
