It's one of best iOS DAW, very loved by users for easy and fast workflow. You can buy additional synths and extend this products. All KORG software can run inside this DAW. There is limited support for controlling 3rd party plugins.

Sound is very good, especially if you do not go wild with channel count. It's must have iPad application.
