Hi Folks,
I thought I would post a short list of apps I found at the apple Store for the iPod Touch and new iPad. If you haven't checked these out, you are in for a treat!
You can do a search in the apple iTunes store for more info on these, I'm just giving a brief description.
I'm also trying to encourage PG music to develop apps, as an iPad version of Band in a Box would be killer! Enjoy>
1. forscore>This app is basically a pdf score reader with a built in Metronome. Unlike many similar apps, you can add your own music pdfs to this. $2.99, compare this with the $800 musicpad pro. Yes, the iPad isn't as big, but other then that, it's great.

2. Mypiano Lessons>As the title says, it is a FREE piano learning app. Plenty of good screenshots, good reviews.

3. Jampad>Another FREE app, you get 4 realtime instruments to jam with.

4. Entrakment>The first real DAW controller for iPad. Reviews are good. You do need a Mac to use it! $2.99

5. MxNM LE>This is a complete Touchscreen Control Midi Surface that works over wifi. It looks awesome! $2.99

6. Sonoma Studio Track>This is a DAW for the iPad, you can download your project via Wifi to your main computer DAW. Includes effects, Mic, etc. $39.99

7. Sheets>Similar to forscore, contains over 1000 classical piano pieces. $2.99

8. Pianist Pro>A very slick looking Piano app, sounds good and easy to use. $9.99

9. Karajan Pro Music & Ear Trainer. A good looking app for music training. $9.99

10. Wivi Band 15 in 1>This amazing app lets you play Flute, Clarinet, Trumpet, a total of 12 instruments. It was $10, now $. 99!!!!!

For all you doubters out there, just remember that Band in a Box was considered a "Toy" when it first came out. Give these devices and apps a little time to develop and I'm sure you'll see that this is going to be a fantastic portable music powerhouse.
