New App For iPad Music Making

Following the launch of Scaler 3 on desktop (now available as Scaler 3.2), Scaler Music has announced the release of Scaler 3 for iPad. Here's the story in their own words...

With the full feature set of the desktop version, Scaler 3 for iPad integrates using AUv3, meaning it can be loaded in a compatible iPad DAW such as Logic Pro, GarageBand, AUM or Cubasis, or host AUv3 plugins. 

This AUv3 integration and full timeline, multitrack and mixer capabilities make Scaler 3 for iPad a new host application for creating music on the iPad.

Scaler 3 for iPad is available now on the Apple App Store at the introductory price of $14.99 throughout March ($19.99 from April).
