Hitsquad announces their recommended list of the best iPad apps for Musicians

Sept. 7, 2011 - PRLog -- Hitsquad have been providing one of the largest online software directories for musicians for over 15 years, and a few times each year their experts get together to produce a list of killer apps in a particular category.

This time they have turned their attention to the iPad.

The iPad isn't just a toy when it comes to music production; after all renowned synthesizer artist Mark Jenkins found it good enough to produce an entire album on nothing but an iPad.

If you are a musician who’s been considering buying one, then there is no need to wait any longer because it’s now a serious music production platform.

Although the iPad won't be replacing the traditional desktop Mac or PC’s anytime soon in the recording studio, the fact that you can now buy emulated iPad versions of what are otherwise expensive hardware synthesizers are making musicians from the garage to the likes of Björk sit up, take notice, and incorporate the device into their work.

It’s not only professional synth apps that are now available, you can also get high quality mobile versions of some of the best desktop software out their such as GarageBand (which came in at number 1 on the list), and also apps that let you hold an entire collection of amplifiers, effects, drum machines, beat makers, and even musical dictionaries in your hand.
