D-Pad is an old-school style Drum Machine exclusively made for the iPad. It brings you a simple and easy to use instrument to create drum rhythms in an instant. With D-Pad, you are able to create new sequences, play with patterns, have a full overview of the drum track and add up to 7 effects in real-time. D-Pad includes many kits, from old machines to new up-to- date styles. D-Pad has a build-in 4 bars sequencer as well as a live mode. Last but not least, D-Pad natively comes with audio export.
FEATURES:
D-Pad comes with 3 different sections: the mixer, the grid and the effect rack.
The Mixer offers you:
To individually change the Volume, the Pan and the Tune of each track
To play each track in live mode with dedicated pads, where changes and effects also apply
To record in live mode with a quantize functionality
The Grid allows you:
To have a full overview of the rhythm you are creating
To quickly assign events to each track with the multi-touch enable. Just swipe the pads with your fingers.
To easily identify when one or more tracks are in solo
The Effect view allows you:
To control which effect is applied on the whole track
To set each single parameters of each effect. Here again, the multi -touch enable allows you to modify many parameters at the same time.
D-Pad also comes with the great audio Mix-down feature: create a rhythm (with the sequencer or with the live mode) and record it. The corresponding audio file is stored in the document folder of the D-Pad Application.

Hola Rafael, no U ain’t stupid. We have already 2 many mediocre DrumMachines in the appshop… What I wanna see is the Ultimate Drum Machine for iOS, vintage or not. SaludOS!
Look good but..
Poor volume, bad sounds, bad effects…
No copy/paste, no midi, no own samples…
Please developers, make your app up the time we life.
I’m bored, I don’t know if I’m the stupid or the developers, or apple..
F*ck
This looks strangely like the DM1 drum machine (almost identical in layouts and looks!). Anyone own it yet? Wouldn’t mind seeing some screenshots of the rest of the app. Strange that the developer only supplies one screenshot!?!
Indeed. It looks very much like DM1 and the functionality reminds of it too. A coincidence? A clone? Same developer? Either way, we were promised audio copy in a DM1 update but haven’t seen anyone yet. This time we are promised both audio copy and midi sync. Until implementet it is a no go for me and when it is, I need some audio demos before buying anything.
Looks very good.
But need more info about kits, sounds, etc.
And as I said, audio copy/paste and midi since the first release if you want people to buy it.
