Yes i bought BeatMaker 2 - and it's very high quality app, but i don't use it.
This is very subjective alsoI've never really heard good stuff made with NanoStudio, but BeatMaker has some nice stuff
I don't watch ns\bm tracks, so i don't know great examples, all i know that people loved this ns track:
And for live things, i don't like BM2..i prefer finger drumming on RicePad =)
I placed comment on Intua forums about what i don't like also in BM2
I was a beatmaker1 user when I had iPod touch 2g, so now, when I got iPad , I bought bm2
It's very interesting and powerful software...
But it seems that there is one big disappointment for me...
Yes, about effects..but not about quality..about control!
So, what makes me thinking about?
1) effects are for the whole sampler, not for each pad on/off
2) why don't put XY pad for controlling effect to the left while triggering pads by fingers as usual?
That two knobs for filter cut off / resonance is really bad.. XY coordinate window is needed for live performance , because rotating knob on touch screen is a bit useless while XY coordinate movement works much better.
You putted XY window in fullscreen mode, I know, but it s useless when there is no playback...
At least you should make not only that giant XY window on the whole screen, but for all effects slots together - in bm1 u had two effects together with control.
Just imagine - loop is playing, there is bitcrusher and delay. In BM1 I could change XY for delay by left finger and XY for crusher by right finger - simultaneously..
And in bm2 I only can change delay XY than switch to another... Pffff
So you see? everyone has different needs
