NEXT: Utku Uzmen Voix Vocoder
Utku Uzmen Voix Vocoder, £0.59
This 8-band vocoder enables you to "play your voice like a synth" - just speak into your iPad's mic while playing the onscreen keyboard. There's a ribbon controller for fine adjustment of pitch, an HF Emphasis button to aid speech intelligibility, and the option to play the instrument like a standard sawtooth synth.
iXimix LiveRemote, £5.99
Developers seem to be falling over themselves to create Ableton Live controller apps. This one lets you make mixer, channel strip and plug-in tweaks, while also giving you a clip launcher and transport control. It works via CoreMIDI and promises incredibly low latency.
Audioforge Labs Reforge 2, £3.49
This iPad audio editor has been completely reworked for version 2, which is based on a new audio engine. Audiocopy and paste functionality has been added, too, as has stereo recording and the ability to import podcasts and other long audio files.
