Free Midi Sequencer For iPad

Looking for an analogue style midi sequencer for your gear? Check this one out. It’s FREE! For both iPhone and iPad.

Little MIDI Machine By Synthetic Bits, LLC is an analog-style MIDI step sequencer app for CoreMIDI and/or the Line 6 MIDI Mobilizer interface. This app requires you have a CoreMIDI setup or own the hardware Line 6 Mobilizer MIDI interface hardware accessory for full functionality. With version 3 you can also use Little MIDI to sequence iOS synth apps that support CoreMIDI and background audio!

What’s New in Version 3.0

Virtual MIDI and background audio support, so you can sequence other synth apps
Two sequences for iPhone/Touch version
MIDI input support, enter sequence notes or transpose on the fly

Little MIDI Machine gives you the step sequencing power of a hardware analog sequencer on your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch! Program two independent sequencers that send note and velocity MIDI data out on two MIDI channels to control your hardware synthesizers. LittleMM includes many of your favorite hardware sequencer features such as mute and un-mute notes, skip steps, reverse the sequencer, adjustable clock speed, etc.

If you do not have a compatible synth app, a CoreMIDI hardware setup, or a MIDI Mobilizer setup, LittleMidi can generate very basic melodic sounds in place of sending MIDI. This will let you play around with the app and try it out, but it is not a feature that will be developed further and is not the primary purpose of the app. LittleMM is intended to be a MIDI sequencer driving other apps or external MIDI hardware. Check out the info page to see some great apps we recommend using with Little MIDI!

Changeling Midi Sequencer For iPad

Meet Changeling; the super easy, flexible, diatonic chord sequencer from the future.

This sequencer has its foundation in musical improvisation theory; All recorded musical notes remain relative, and can be changed in various ways during playback.

It’s a simple tool for people that like to create music, but don’t have the discipline or time for studying music theory, or years of piano improvisation practice. Changeling does not generate compositions, you remain in full creative control over the music that you come up with.

Instructions:

Just start by recording a simple melody-line with one finger.
Change the scale and root by sliding the ribbons.
Transform the melody to a chord progression by turning the chord knob. Play around with the available voicings and transition modes that affect chord inversions.
Finally spread out the chord notes over time using the arpeggiator.

Use Changeling’s MIDI output to record patterns to your DAW or other MIDI capable IOS apps.

Changeling Sequencer is available for $4.99

Logic Control App For iPad

An intuitive, powerful control surface app optimized for the Apple Logic DAW application program. Has great reviews on iTunes.

lpTouch provides mobility and touch screen controls for Logic’s commonly used functions. With lpTouch & Wi-Fi, you can control record and playback from anywhere in your studio, edit your software instruments, or adjust effects settings. Tired of trying to manipulate tiny controls on the Logic screen with a mouse? lpTouch offers large, usable multi-touch faders and rotary controls to edit send effects, inserts, plug-in instrument parameters, and EQ settings so you can get just the right sound.

Mute or solo any track to evaluate your mix during playback. Arm one or more tracks for recording. Know where you’re at with the timecode and bar-beat display, and track name and number identification.

One great way to reap the benefits of lpTouch is to use Logic on your Mac to get some tracks down in your composition, then sit back with your iPad – or move around your studio – and use lpTouch’s track and transport functions to evaluate your mix. It makes recording a breeze.

lpTouch works with the built-in “TouchOSC” control surface driver that is provided by Apple as part of your Logic installation. It uses Logic’s new Open Sound Control (OSC) control surface support.
