Robert Clemons has released Sampledex DAW for iPadOS, (previously MacOS only), available as a FREE download.
Build beats by touch, record audio, draw MIDI program drums, shape 808s and synths, mix with effects, and export WAV, MP3, M4A or MIDI.
Make beats, record ideas and shape your sound or iPad.
Sampledex brings audio recording, MIDI sequencing sampling, sound design and mixing into one touch workspace. Start with a blank project or an editable beat template, build your arrangement and export your music–all with included sounds and instruments.
Draw notes in the piano roll or paint rhythms in the drum sequencer. Adjust note length, tempo, key and scale. Quantize a performance, snap notes to scale or add scale-degree triads. Arrange your ideas across tracks with clip move, trim, duplicate, Undo and Redo,
Record audio through the iPad microphone or a compatible audio interface. Capture MIDI performances from compatible MIDI devices. Import audio and MIDI files, play pitched samples or chop sounds into pads. Recorded audio becomes an editable clip in your timeline,
Adjust clip gain and add fade-ins and fade-outs. Joir clips within a track or combine selected parts across tracks into an audio stem. Keep the original clips editable and choose whether to mute them or leave them playing.

Start with included drums, sampled 808s, Poly Synth -M Keys and Al Synth. Shape oscillators, filters envelopes, tuning and modulation. Design individual drum pads and use the pitch readout to guide tonal sounds.
Create instant sound variations or describe a sound to the bundled local Al. Audition a proposal, keep what works and discard the rest. Parameter locks protect settings you want to retain No account, API key, model download or online A service is required. Al Synth designs instrument sounds; it does not generate beats, notes, loops or songs.
Control channel levels, pan, buses, sends and automation. Add included EQ, compression, limiting, reverb, delay, filter, saturation, chorus, bitcrusher and rhythmic gate. Process individual tracks and the master channel to shape your mix Use compatible installed AUv3 instruments and effects, with native plug-in editors when available and generic parameter controls.
Export full mixes and individual stems as WAV, MP3 or M4A. Choose WAV for sample-aliqned stems and ossless delivery. Export MIDI arrangements or individual MIDI tracks, or share a portable Sampledex project with its audio and editable session data.
Find your projects and templates on the start screen. Autosave keeps drafts in your project library, including unnamed ideas. Use Save to name your work and Save As to create an independent copy Turn your own projects into reusable templates Open compatible Sampledex projects from Mac Desktop plug-ins retain their saved state, and rendered audio from frozen Mac tracks can play without the original instruments.
Requires iPadOS 17 or later. Desktop VST3 and AU v2 plug-ins do not run on iPad. AUv3 features and editor availability depend on the installed plug-in. External audio and MIDI devices must be compatible with iPadOS.
