Quite fancy an iPad. Can anyone recommend me some apps?

I'm looking for:

1) DJing apps - either traditional 2-deck mixing apps or more automatic playlist-based apps.

2) Loops sequencers - Sony's ACID on iPad would be brilliant, so if there's anything like that please shout out.

3) Loop generators - synth-based sequencers that allow you to easily knock-up soom loops and render them out for use in other apps.

And anything else that is unique to iPad (or much better on iPad than iPhone) that you think might sway my decision to buy an iPad

Thanks!

I haven't yet got to the stage of attempting any proper music with my iPad but I'm finding DM1 great fun. If you're into retro drum machines sounds (or even not so retro) then I would recommend this app. it's beautifully designed, easy to use and very intuitive. just great fun all round. not sure if it's still at the discounted price but well worth the £2.99 I paid.

Don't forget GrooveMaker for loop based production on iOS.
