Propellerhead Figure iPhone / iPad app

Post by MannequinRaces »

I don't really see many posts regarding software music making 'gear' but I thought I would post this for those interested in music making apps. The software company Propellerhead (makers of Reason, Recycle) just released an app they made called Figure. Basically it's an app for sketching song ideas quickly. My biggest gripes with the program are you can't save your song creations, only two bars that loop, and only three 'tracks' to record on (bass, lead, drums). But for only $1 it sounds great, you can easily change tempo, key, note ranges, it's got the master buss compressor, and is intuitive to use. More info about the app can be found at the Propellerhead website here: http://www.propellerheads.se/products/figure/. For those of you that have an iPhone / iPad I encourage you to check it out. :thumb:

I believe Caustic is only for Android phones... but it looks pretty sweet!
