Best on-the-go music app
This app is fantastic! As a blind musician, this app is one of the very few that is actually totally useable with VoiceOver. Hats off to Ableton for making this app accessible for us little guys. Extremely impressed. There are some very minor improvements that can be made to improve ease of use, like the macro labels being duplicated. Since the knobs themselves are labeled, I wish they would hide the text label, as it only adds an additional swipe to focus on the next knob. Nevertheless, this is a minor complain in an overall great app. Even the MIDI note editor is accessible, though not too useable, as it takes too long to use. Having a sequencer for the notes would be much faster, so first, touching the note you want to edit, then focusing on a step editor and moving through the note steps would be great.

The Innovative Solution
Very useful app for making a bank of found sounds on the go . It’s a very powerful tool / companion too Ableton Live Suite and because of its usability and simplistic nature it’s always available in your hand . I started on this on the week of its release and have seen it grow and change into what we have now . Pro :The cloud is great and uploading too it is very easy. Con : there is some hidden changes too the important aspects of Simpler as it doesn’t load in the same format. Pro: it has the ability to capture audio straight into each drum rack pad with some rudimentary edit and manipulation functionality. Con: as of yet there is no 32but float function which can make it challenging too monitor and record in real time .Pro: there’s a grid with quantise and nudge functions etc . Con : it’s a bit fiddly to get into could do with a latch /gate function on a single button for quick editing so you can monitor the other sounds and output while making changes. Pro : there’s a mixer that utilises touch strips and allows for gain structure. Con. It’s a challenge too see the level of multi touch fader movements on smaller phones while editing. I rate this app a solid 8/10 . For where it’s currently at with a few more granular and spectral functions and some au integration it will be a great daw on your phone . Well done and Thank you . Too everyone at Ableton excited and inspired for what you do next 🙏👏

This app is cool and all but could yall make it like ableton where theres a a landscape mode like instead of just loops
Be aware of the cloud syncing
Make sure you open the correct version of your track on the right device before syncing deletes your new project with an older version. Screwed up projects by opening older sets. Was digging a track I was working on a while back. Listened to it earlier in the day on my iPhone, then decided after work that I wanted to work on it that same project again but from the iPad instead. When I opened the project it was an older state and was confused so I linked WiFi and when I opened the project from my iPhone it synced with the older project because I had just opened it and linked to the the internet. Damn I hope there’s a way to view various renditions of projects because that sucks if all my work just got erased from a stupid error like not opening the correct one first. How many projects has this happened with I think now.
