Best music creation app

No app--not figure, beatbox 2, garageband, rebirth,fl mobile, music studio, tabletop,I mpc,nano studio, gadget, cubasis, not all the loopers, not funkbox--no app inspires me to create sonically valid beats and grooves faster than this app. Ease of use, simplicity and plenty of user control make this app irresistible. With this update we now have a program with all the fun, yet actually more intuitive than the early years of FL Studio, Reason, Arturia Storm. No gimmicky visual distractions or sonic show off soundscapes. Unspoiled workflow with no cluttery bells and whistles. .The most transparent introduction to synthesis and to sequencing I have ever encountered. With audiobus and midi Caustic is the gold standard for user friendly no b.s. music creation. Every time I open this app I come up with a groove pattern or a song. Provides the workspace and workflow for the composer arranger musician-us-to do the razzle dazzle.3.2 for ios please!

good start

nice sounding, lot of synths ... but the app is not full screen on the ipad 2

This is awesome.

I think this is the best and most fun to use all-in-one music-app! Awesome work! Love it.

Lpnrffr

AppSolutely gorgeous & awesome!!! Excellent work, dude ;) !! Thats exactly what i was looking for... Simply on point! SINGLE CELL SOFTWARE! Thanks a lot

So Pro yet so much Fun

This app is just simply amazing. I was making killer tracks in no time. You can touch on this app lightly and still achieve great results or you can dive deep into the app and create some very astonishing tracks. Most fun app and the most productive tool I have ever used. Well done 6 stars. ******

Holy crap this is the motherlode

I was a Gadget fanboy before really giving this app and its workflow a chance. Its worth spending a bit of time to figure out to take advantage of the super clean and highly convenient UI an workflow. So damn powerful. I love the easy split between recording live and piano rolled patterns and song based data (automation and notes independent of patterns). The interface is simple and a joy to use once you put in the time. Certain things that appear missing, like undo, are there (in edit mode). One just has to get used to the mode based editor interface. Once thing "missing" is being able to record audio lyrics and stuff but that can be done in other software, and Gadget doesnt bother with this much either. The instruments are more advanced and varied than many of Gadgets offerings too. The strings simulator KSSynth and the drawbar organ, and the padsynth (additive synthesis made simple) are my favourites. I love the fact you can simply scroll through the instruments and piano rolls on the rack. Fantastic UI!

Unbelievable value

Easy to learn and use, great sound, many helpful Youtube videos, and a free OS X version. Stunning value for low cost and great fun!

Great loving it

Easy to use. Lot cheaper than Reason.

Fantastic!

Fabulous, productive work flow. Low cpu usage - runs faster than any other DAW on my iPad 3. I mean, no hiccups, it just flows! Great sounds. Excellent Youtube tutorials. Free Mac and Windows versions*. Hard to go wrong here. * The developer could easily charge for this app on other platforms ... why he doesnt is beyond me.

The best

Please add support for audiobus asap. Thanx.

AWESOME!!!

Simply the best version yet. It added everything I wanted, to make this already excellent app even better. Thank You for creating and improving this amazing product. Keep up the good work!

Amazing

Absolutely amazing app. Watch the tutorial videos and then create! Absolutely incredible app.

I got my rock back

Thats right, its back. Pick a single instrument, throw a bunch together, build with musical intent or tweak your brains out stumbling upon those "happy accidents". Understated interface. Deep, sweet fun. Mind blown.

Just needs inter app audio

Great app, has all the bells and whistles. Best all around go to app with this update, but with more and more apps adding iaa support, audiobus is becoming, as audiopaste once was, something we use when we absolutely have to. The convenience of inter app audio support which would probably mean one more machine, one that controls iaa apps. Imagine the potential then, being able to use synths like nave. Then well have a 5 star app.

KS synth rocks!

This is the best mobile music production out there. I dont write many reviews but i wanted to take this time to give some love to the developer for doing an outstanding job. The tutorials are great too. Learning a lot from them. Thanks! Updated Review (May 21) Audiobus support takes this already amazing app to a different level. Love the new KS synth. I dont know how it is possible but it keeps getting better and better. Thank you to the developer! Hes a one man army!

Got so many things on the mark including Binaural engine

I love that Caustic makes a sound when your finger touches the sequencer piano roll view. How many apps cant get that most basic intuitive feature. Thank you Caustic. And the second thing that I like to do is scroll through available instruments trying out the melody. Just flip through them like its a book. Excellent. Ive been going one by one through my apps to see which can do binaural wobble. Binaural requires separate left and right bass engines playing bass at frequencies that differ by 0-60 hz. The brain pulses notices the difference and sends its own pulse which among other things aligns left and right hemispheres, helps with sleep alertness, dreams, etc. ... And makes sick relaxing exciting bass wobble. Most synth app developers put the pan after all the oscillators only on the main output. To produce binaural the pan has to be on each oscillator to isolate left at one frequency and right at another. Try it out for yourself. Relatively easy on caustic because you can use whole notes and also sin waves are the best to use. The Caustic Subsynth for one has it. Hopefully Caustic can expand on what I mentioned so that only one pattern is necessary instead of two synth patterns and also it would be nice to know the frequency. Illness posting binaural track at DJ Greggar soundcloud. Ill be writing more just wanted to say thanks for those nice features and also the update with Audiobus.

Essential, Deep, Beautiful

There are so many praiseworthy things to say about Caustic - Im going to hone in on a couple beyond the fact that Caustic SOUNDS fantastic. Caustic is clever, sleek and designed with a definite genius but somehow it pulls off the ultimate App (or Program) Trick: being extremely intuitive while also being deeply capable. Its an app you can get started with almost immediately yet also delve into for months discovering and exploring new and wonderful capabilities. The approachability of a far more limited app but with a further depth resembling an actual DAW -- Caustic has become one of my favorite ways to make music period. Additionally it exports at a choice of 16, 24 or 32bit, has a great UI, automation and an aspect Im coming to appreciate more and more: Caustic has a heart and a personality -- thats truly rare even in apps that do what they do very well. Lastly the price: completely modest and beyond fair. everything about Caustic feels genuine and powerful. One of the absolute all-time iOS Greats.

A lot of power for little CPU

In the realm of "all in one" music apps, few are as easy to master and yet are so very powerful. All the control of the creation process is in the hands of the user. If you want one of those apps that creates music for you, youll want to look elsewhere. This is an app for people who want to create amazing music themselves. Slick update! Lots of new functionality. If youre looking for a self-contained music creation station, youve come to the right place.

YES ;-)

Ive been using REASON since it came out and its my # 1 app for production.. This is like "REASON" for your iphone and I mean that! At first I thought caustic would sound cheezy and kill my CPU. Wrong.. This app is stable, sounds great... It not all that intuitive but after u mess with buttons here and there and "READ THE INTRUCTIONS ! Youll want no other music app on your phone. Hopefully there have an update with more sounds but making your own is easy. If u have Propellerhead Reason youll see what I mean and your hear it too. I cant put caustic down! Im hooked Caustic is the best app! Hands down.
