in this video I'm looking at six of the best iPhone apps or musicians I'm Zane
and this is simple green tech on this channel I do weekly audio tech tips
tutorials and reviews to help you unleash your creativity
now the apps for musicians that I'm looking at today are in no specific
order and be sure to stick around to the end as I have a bonus non-musical app
that will really help you with your song creation now first up on the list is
GarageBand this app typically comes pre-installed on iphone so you may
already have it the GarageBand app turns your iPhone or
iPad into a mobile recording studio allowing you to record tracks in and
also use instruments that you can play with the touch screen there are numerous
instruments built into GarageBand and you can even connect an iOS compatible
audio interface or microphone and record your own instruments or voice into the
app GarageBand allows you to create music when inspiration strikes no matter
where you are next up on the list is n-track studio this app is another mobile
DAW that includes effects and a built in multi-instrument that you can control
with MIDI you can also record audio into n track by using your phone's built-in
microphone or by connecting an audio interface there are a few subscription
options available or a by once option that is very reasonable
for a very capable digital audio workstation you can export your tracks
as WAV files or save your project and load it up in the desktop program on
your computer for further editing the link to n track studio and all of the
apps on this list are in the description below now third on the list of best apps
for musicians is an app that's geared more to guitar players and bass players
this is AmpliTube if you're familiar with the desktop plugin or program then
you know that AmpliTube brings you the sounds of modern or vintage guitar amps
and effects there's also a built-in guitar tuner you can record and arrange
music on the go with the multitrack recording system and this allows you to
mix and edit right on your phone there's a
free version of AmpliTube that includes a few pieces of gear and of course you
can add more gear as you go there are also value bundles that you can purchase
within the app to unlock more amps and effects the audio quality is very good
you can even plug it in directly to a PA if you needed to use it live use
AmpliTube with an i rig for the ultimate mobile Guitar Rig if you're enjoying
this video so far please give it a thumbs up it really does help the
channel and it means a lot to me now fourth on the list of apps for musicians
I have music maker Jam this app makes music creation pretty easy you can
combine loops and sounds from the mix packs you get over ten free mix packs
included with the free app and of course you can purchase more from the music
maker Jam store there are numerous styles of music that you can create and
once you've created a track you can upload it directly from the app to
SoundCloud Facebook Instagram and whatsapp you can't bring your own sounds
into music jam but they've given you so many loops to use that you won't need to
bring anything in now fifth on the list is amplify music launchpad if you're
familiar with Ableton Live launchpad reminds me of the session mode in life
you can actually sync this with Ableton Live and use it to launch loops in your
live projects load some loops into the various pads and easily launch them with
a touch you get eight free sound packs with close to 400 sounds included you
can share your music to SoundCloud YouTube Facebook and many other
locations grab your free launchpad app from the App Store today
now on to the 6th app on the list we have bandlab this is a great free music
creation platform with an easy-to-use multitrack editor that allows you to
record edit or remix you get some creative effects beats loops and vocals
from hundreds of free sound packs available in a variety of musical styles
you get unlimited cloud storage and you can start a project
on your phone then continue editing it or recording it on your computer tablet
Chromebook or whatever you have or you can start on your computer and edit on
your phone or iPad you also get access to the bandlab social media network
where you can reach out to pros to ask for recording techniques or collaborate
with other musicians there are so many possibilities with this app if you want
to record music on your iPhone or tablet then bandlab is a great place to start
let me know if you use a different app to create music on your iPhone now I
told you I had that bonus non Music app that will help you with your songwriting
and this app is Microsoft's OneNote this app allows you to quickly write down
your ideas and you can also record audio into OneNote so if you have a melody or
a riff idea that pops into your head while you're away from the studio open
up OneNote and record it into there you can create folders so it's easy to
organize your thoughts and you can access OneNote from pretty much any
device so when you do get to your laptop or your computer you can open up OneNote
and go through all of your ideas to help your song come together in the studio
it's a free app and one that I highly recommend click here for my audio
recording software playlist or click down here to see what YouTube thinks you
