If you’ve used iSequence, leave a comment with your thoughts!
This program is easy to use for laying down a beat or simple sequence. The only function it lacks is trimming audio that you record. Well… it can crop loop samples, but not one-shots.
It's a nice all in one app, with some great features for the price.
Personally, i think the "blade runner" patch is worth the asking price alone
