Ean love the video, got the app and started messing about with it. My 7 year old son has seen me playing with it and has started making his own sounds!!!!
awesome I’ve been messing with this all day… in record mode you can then go to the tweaks tab on drums, bass, and lead and RECORD AUTOMATION on different parameters of the individual elements! not to mention they have a really awesome side chain compression effect in the mix tab. If you like making music, you’re stupid not to get this for 99 cents.
You know this looks pretty interesting, and I’m tempted to check it out as it is from the Reason folk. But. iMaschine has been around for awhile now, and fits a fairly similar market I feel. Not sure if I’d honestly need both.

That’s right (imaschine) is the Bomb!!! The day when it can go midi and be able to do Lil more then I think people would under stand. I can go anywhere and bang a 32 bar beat very quickly that’s showing my ((ASS)) so far I have hade I guess maybe 50 or more peoples jaw drop because of what I can do on my iPhone .*

Nice video…fun jam session. Thanks for showing it to us!

aaaand up go there sales

Lol you forgot to mention that there is no way to export patterns or midi files. I would think that this will soon be added but currently there is no way to really utilize for any real production.
moonunit
why would you use a phone app for real production? that’s what a computer is for. This is for when you’re drunk and someone wants to freestyle so you lay down a heady beat real fast for them 😀

Mobile producing is part of some people’s creative process, making beats on a bus, creating a melody on the subway. I personally don’t but for some people what they come up with on the go is an important part of their productions.

I agree what you said man. I’m a truck driver and i works 60 to 70 hrs a week . Apps like this one or others helps people like me put down our ideas when where not around our studios. When I have an idea or want to try something these apps helps us create the foundation part of it. Right now I use an app called [ Imaschine ] so far I have made about 10 beats and some sound really like I’ve made them on my programs at home.
1) The ReBirth app for the iPhone is really cool
2) I find it glitches up a bit and freezes
3) I think the iPhone is just too damn small to really get in there and play around…i could imagine it being a lot better on the iPad

This is amazing, running this through a live deck in traktor. the possibilities are endless!
luca78nero
now this is fun…
too bad:
1. you do not have an arrangement section at all
2. you do not have an arrangement section AS intutive AS the rest of the app (I guess I am asking too much for a 0,79 Euros app, but – READ THIS PROPELLERHEADS – I am willing to pay way more for the same app, this intuitive, with arrangement section).
3. you cannot lay 2 or more sounds (would be great) with different patterns/arpeggiators one on the other…
I actually plan exporting the sounds (which are hellacool) as wavs in Ableton and start arranging from there…
wow, thanks Propellerheads + thanks Ean.

You might really enjoy iMaschine.

Is there any way to save the song or a pattern or something? or is it just an on-the-fly kind of thing?

99 CENTS?!?!?!?

I might as well buy a 12 Core Mac Pro and Reason 6!!!

Just kidding 😉
Seems like a cool app that I’m definitely going to check out!
Thanks for the heads up. And those awesome USB cables 😀

fuck off trolls. DJTT post a really great range of articles and videos. I personally plan on buying this app after seeing it shared here.
are you actually suggesting that I was paid for this video? Riggghhhhttttttttt. Heaven forbid we show you a cool application that we dig just because.. wait for it…… that’s our job.
sure, we could all go into a big debate about the ethics of a company
that manufactures their own controllers and such reviewing other
companies’ products, but c’mon! he’s just showing people a cool, fun little app for jamming! what’s wrong with that!?

sucks that you can’t save anything..
With imaschine you can and export it too.
Ean, you are a colossal douchebag…
is this working on the iPad ?
yes, and it’s awesome. I bought it!
iPad version, everyone?
awesome I’ve been messing with this all day… in record mode you can then go to the tweaks tab on drums, bass, and lead and RECORD AUTOMATION on different parameters of the individual elements! not to mention they have a really awesome side chain compression effect in the mix tab.

This looks like fun for sets that have that sound in them. I might actually explore using this program if I had an iPhone 4.
Ean, no need to reviews like this.. please fix concerns for the VCI-400 and MidiFighters!!!!!!
i want rebirth on my iphone!!!
1) The ReBirth app for the iPhone is really cool
2) I find it glitches up a bit and freezes
3) I think the iPhone is just too damn small to really get in there and play around…i could imagine it being a lot better on the iPad

Ean cool app just got it and ten mins in so much fun also you can delete all if you go to system then clear song.
Thanks for sharing!
