Just wanted to share something that surprised me. It's super cool to see an artist I really like using stuff I wrote (and another synth from a friend). For reference, it's both the one on the bottom middle (and he has a 2nd one on the middle left) as well as the half-size effect on the middle right.

That's pretty awesome. It's great that it's out there, a shame you'll never get credit for it specifically.

i'm interested, what does it do specifically? why use it over alternative software?

also the UI seems very small, how did you keep it usable at that scale?

There's a lot more to it than the screenshot, so here's a short list:
- It's one of the few DAWs on iPad (and designed with using touch in mind). So, you can drag out different instruments and effects and link them through each other. Whether it's the right tool for you or not, that's really up to what you're looking for.
- That view in the screenshot is actually the zoomed out view. So, you can probably tell it's separated into 9 sections (3x3). If you tap on one section, it zooms in.
- The synth in question is iMini, it's a port of a desktop VST from Arturia (the MiniV), so it's a specific brand and set of sounds.

I don't work for them anymore, but it's pretty good software, and the audio quality of iMini especially is really good (the audio code is the same as on the desktop version). One of the Arturia audio engineers couldn't tell the difference between the two versions in a blind test.

SORRY WOOGS I've been super stressed lately so I read it as sarcastic. My bad.

bootsthat's pretty dope! how'd you get started developing music production software?

I went to school thinking this (and game dev) is the kind of stuff I'd like to know and do. I don't work there anymore but I'm thinking of spending time to make stuff independently.
