Easy Ableton integration

I have all the Gadgets on my PC as VSTs, so when I open a Gadget project in Ableton it’s all there, automations and everything. This makes it super easy to start projects when the inspiration hits on my iPad, then fine tune them in Ableton. Total game changer!

Changed my life

I never thought that something could change my life so much. This application has gotten me through some of the hardest and most difficult times in my life. I never knew I was a musician, but now I’m making a song for my son. 10 years of learning piano…. Trying all different applications… this is the one that I will make this song with… thank you developers for creating something that I can go to when I have nowhere to turn… I find love inside of making music… I must sound crazy, but it’s true.. thank you
