Hey, when making music in Ableton, I like to test loops on multiple speakers - of course, my car's the most fun place!

Copy-Pasting a loop for 32 bars, exporting as a song into iTunes and loading accordingly is messy and inelegant.

Surely there's a good app for the iPhone that allows me to drop single bar loops onto it and play them, looped, on repeat (with no gaps)? I have an iPad also, but it's the iPhone first-and-foremost I'd be using.

Any suggestions? Of course, the ability to play around with any FX on top would be a fun bonus.. but is non-essential!

Thanks

There's loads of them.

Some of the better known ones include

Loopy (hd)
Lp-5
Notation Launchpad

I have Loopy, can I drop loops in via the iTunes interface?

Yes

Also via Audiocopy/paste "open in" and audiobus

Awesome. I already have Loopy HD and this is perfect; just hold down the circle, import and there's my beat!

Pop loopy into audiobus and then you can add effects on top...

Well, it appears I have Audiobus, but no good FX apps!

Any recommendations?

Excited! :)

There's also 'protein der klang' which is somewhat abletonesque. one shots, loops. fx.

For fx in audiobus, check sugar bytes turnado, flux fx.
