This is almost too good to be true! I hope this sounds as good as it looks, though.

Dear Roland, where is the iTB-303? :-)

This is the very first professional looking synth app I see for the IPad. The specs are really impressive. I suppose it wont sound as good as the Legacy pack but it defenitely will be worth the $15.99

Components:
- MS-20 monophonic synthesizer: 1 unit
- Analog sequencer: 1 unit
- 6-part drum machine: 1 unit
- Mixer: 1 unit
- Song/Pattern composer: 1 unit

It sounds great, I bought it yesterday and I am very impressed! It's got a really high-quality sound with character, especially the growly filter.

Great news Artemiy!!! Where is my iPad??? LoL

Do you know if it can be controlled from an external MIDI keyboard?
Cheers

Don't know yet but if it isn't possible I bet it will be very soon, as most major apps already support either the Line6 MIDI interface or the new CoreMIDI system in iOS 4.2. I wish I had a class compliant (driver-less) USB MIDI keyboard to try this (all Roland gear needs a driver). I think I will start looking at something portable and battery powered now :-)

Yep, line 6 is a very good idea. I've seen it's presentation on SonicState

Hum... CoreAudio 4.2 supports it...

Line6 needs in-app support via their SDK, it's not working via CoreMIDI. What CoreMIDI gives is standard SDK for all apps, using it they can support any standard USB MIDI device.

As a long time user of Roland keyboards, I must say that they have their faults, but their use has made me an expert on all matters related to the appendix. In this case, I would give your teacher an A+. She is exactly correct.
