Pure Acid

This is an awesome app. If you want a great setup for getting started with acid music, get this app to serve as the core of your acid setup. Add the Super 606 drum machine from AudioKit because it is nice to have an additional drum source and the 606 sounds work great with acid style music. Get Koala sampler with the Samurai pack to give you some versatility when you need it. Finally, get AUM to tie it all together, and you will really have a very complete acid production setup with this app as the foundation. Also, turn on the Apple effects in AUM to give you some baseline effects to use. Learn these four apps and how to integrate them, and you will be able to create some stellar music.

It’s all right here folks. No need to look any further if you want a premium dose of high quality acid app coding. I’ve tried a lot of emulations and also the real deal. This tops it all for the most fun and comprehensive all-in-one self contained experience. The sound is full and warm with definition and detail. The sequencer is a real treat. The scale modes and variation/shuffle function is excellent. It plays well with other apps and I’m going to try and sequence my TD-3 with Pure Acid in the next day or so. I can’t believe I didn’t know about this until a couple days ago. Better late to the party than never. My only minor and petty niggle is that you can’t change the custom colors for the main 303 knobs. If that’s the only gripe I have then this app is near perfect. I can’t keep it closed.

I am a beginner in the iOS music production world. I really got frustrated with many apps, trying to make synths work with certain DAWs, trying to get something started and enjoy myself in the process. This app delivers exactly what I want! It’s super intuitive and compact. So I find myself learning while I can actually have sort of a live jam session, or even program nice drum patterns with ease. Now the sound of the Bass in this is App is a certain kind of sound from earlier Acid House Days, or maybe Chemical Brothers come to mind. But there are swing options which make for a whole different vibe if needed. If you are a beginner, or if you are familiar with iOS music production, either way you should not miss out on this. Tons of fun!!
