Native Instruments releases iMASCHINE update – now also optimized for iPad
Berlin, May 22, 2014 – Native Instruments today released an update for
iMASCHINE – the acclaimed beat sketchpad for iOS devices. The latest
version of the app is optimized for iPad, adapting to its larger screen
layout. The update also includes a generous set of new sounds, iTunes
sampling, and more. Current owners of iMASCHINE receive the update free.
New customers can get iMASCHINE for $4.99 / 4,49 € / £2.99 / ¥500 at the
Apple App Store.
iMASCHINE allows users to create music sketches on-the-go with their
iPad or iPhone. With an eclectic selection of drums, synths, one-shots,
and a built-in audio recorder, it is designed for on-the-go beatmaking.
The update features a new user interface and an optimized layout for
iPhone 5, iPad and iPad mini. On the iPad, the modified interface allows
two-handed operation: editing and performing functions are now on the
same window as iMASCHINE’s 16 drum-pads, 2-octave keyboard and the
audio-recorder, making its workflow even smoother. Aside from
iMASCHINE’s standard library, the update also includes QUANTUM
COLLECTION – a brand-new iMASCHINE Expansion featuring a choice
selection of sounds from the recently released MASCHINE 2 Library. The
new iTunes sampling allows users to capture parts from the music on
their iOS device and edit the samples’ start and end points.
Writing and performing with iMASCHINE becomes easier, thanks to a number
of helpful workflow enhancements. Intuitive XY performance controls are
a new way to perform effects. A swipe redo/undo function is a welcome
addition for an even faster workflow. Lastly, this iMASCHINE update adds
a metronome on/off switch – a popular request from the iMASCHINE
community. Anyone who already owns iMASCHINE gets this entire feature
set, including QUANTUM COLLECTION, for free by updating the iMASCHINE
app on their iOS device.
Current iMASCHINE owners get the update free by updating the iMASCHINE
app on their iOS device. New customers can get iMASCHINE for $4.99 /
4,49 € / £2.99 / ¥500 at the Apple App Store.
