There is roundtripping, but if you use Mac-only effects, you’ll need to do plenty of track freezing to get your songs on to iPad. Even on a 12.9in iPad Pro, things can feel cramped as you play an ongoing battle of ‘rearrange the panels’. It’s great when fiddling with sliders, working on a melody using a virtual keyboard, or twiddling knobs. Also, the touchscreen proves to be a boon. There are loads of built-in sounds and effects, and the new Drum Machine Designer addresses a limitation of GarageBand for iPad, letting you make your own custom kits. The sound browser helps you quickly get to the sounds you need. Multitouch gestures make it a cinch to zoom in and make precision edits. But once you’re comfortable, you have a wealth of tools at your fingertips. In an abstract sense, it gets you away from a desk, which for many people is hardly the most creative environment. And then started looking at how to make it work on a multitouch tablet. (Apple has said it will ‘aggressively’ iterate on this 1.0 release, like the Foo Fighters of app developers.) But for the most part, it does feel like Apple somehow smashed the Mac version of Logic Pro into the iPad. This isn’t some brutally cut back version of the Mac app either. And if you already spend much of your time immersed in Logic Pro and are a fan of Apple’s tablet, that iPad bit is going to make you giddy with glee. Well, previously for Mac, because now it’s also on iPad. So we should probably note that Logic Pro is Apple’s high-end digital audio workstation for Mac. If you’re sitting there baffled but have read this far, we’re impressed. The best iPhone and iPad apps money can buy.
