Anyone checked this out?

I just picked it up on the App Store, and... wow.

Now, I've been composing/recording music for about 12 years and I've messed with various software/hardware over the years but this is quite honestly mind-blowing.

I was so sceptical when Apple announced it, I thought it would be a bit tacky and more of a toy, but it's genuinely a very powerful app with a hell of a lot of potential. It's not even like it's just for playing with little ideas, or a musical sketchpad, you could really record some pretty impressive stuff.

If any of you iPad owners are even remotely musical, I highly recommend checking it out. And wave goodbye to an hour or five.

And for £2.99 too, I've paid four times that for music apps half as good.

Sounds like a sweet deal, looks like no GarageBand for ipod touch so I'll keep strummin' my pocket guitar.

EDIT: I read it uses accelerometer input to emulate pressure sensitivity, nice idea!

Yeah sucks they didn't add iPhone/iPod support but at least they supported iPad 1, I was kinda expecting them to go iPad 2 exclusive.

Yeah the accelerometer velocity/pressure sensitivity works surprisingly well, definitely a very clever idea.
