Paul, it's a shade on the pricey side but it really is a great app. There are free windows and mac versions (of the iPhone app) on the website If you want to trial it. http://www.blipinteractive.co.uk/


Had a go on the Windows version and it is a very capable program. Amazing really that for a price of just under £10 it seems pricey (by iPhone App standards) when not so many years ago this sort of capability would cost £100s if not £1000s.

Much of what I have created so far is by accident and I need to get my head around the various screens and settings (haven't even looked at the help manual yet). I usually mess around with the Korg DS10 for the Nintendo DS. On this you can also create some great sounds by accident and if you persevere you can even do something on purpose.

Hours of noisy fun.

You know this is called cheating. :naughty boy:

Also be aware, if you excessively hang up and redial your ADSL modem (in order to get a new IP), the exchange will slow your connection down. Thinking there is a fault, (where the modem disconnected because it couldn't find the connection), it reconfigures the connection to be progressively slower until the problem goes away. And then your connection will be stuck on that level (thinking it fixed the problem) until you ask your ISP to get BT to reset it again, which usually involves a lot of sighing and tutting, jobsworth attitudes, 1001 excuses why it's not possible.

Huh? I never asked anyone to redial their ADSL modem (whatever that means.) I haven't even bothered to try and multi-vote myself.

The top track has over 540 votes and got there in one week. It's a pretty good track and better than mine but I don't doubt it got their because the guy had access to a lot of willing voters.

I got a couple of votes in for each track. Looks like you got one on the first page of the "most popular" 8)

Sorry to bring a thread back from the dead - had meant to post on this ages ago but, well, forgot.....

As I always had an interest in electronic music and when I was a student back in the late 1980s I "dabbled" (best word for it really) so I was very interested in Nanostudio. So I gave it a go (having to go and buy an ipod to run it) - and was amazed at what it could do, and more to the point I could get back into some music making.

So thanks for originally posting this - I've had loads of fun over the last year or so. Still haven't much of a clue it must be said, but loads of fun :-). The iOS music making scene has really changed over the last 18 months with some quality apps (Korg iMS20, Animoog, Sunrizer, Thumbjam, iVoxel, Addictive to name a few).

Glad you like it.

I got one of these last Xmas: https://www.akaipro.com/synthstation25 - it's compatible with Nanostudio, and obviously Synthstation itself, and I believe a good few others.

For some really simple yet effective tune making, check out Propellorhead's Figure - http://www.propellerheads.se/products/figure/ (free app)

I keep waiting for the TNR-i app to drop in price. http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/tnr-i/id406297563?mt=8

I was lucky enough to pick up Animoog (iPad) for about £3 as an introductory offer

I too got one of the Synthstation - its pretty nice, but can be a bit "laggy" with Nanostudio (or indeed some others) when a lot is going on.

Yes the TNR-i - looks nice, but cant decide if it's worth getting or not. There was a reduction recently but I passed on it (more than enough toys at the moment).

The recently released Auria DAW (http://auriaapp.com/Products/auria) looks good - but way beyond what I could use (although was tempted a little). No - I think will stay messing with Nanostudio for the moment :-)
