Music production on the iPad? Can music be recorded and produced on the Apple iPad? The answer is yes.
There are several really great DAW apps for iOS now. I originally published this in 2010 when there were very few DAWs to choose from and they weren’t very powerful. Well 8 years later and we have some killer apps. Poke around on my site or check out my Youtube for current information! https://www.youtube.com/user/ipadloops

StudioTrack works with the iPad built-in microphone and headphones and most iPad audio interfaces (GuitarJack Model 2 recommended).
