  2. Smart Music For todays aspiring musician, access to professional-grade resources doesn’t necessarily require a rock star budget. Let’s explore some of the reasons why smart phones and tablets have become valuable tools for hobbyists and professional musicians alike. Applications Community Support and Stability

  3. Applications In the earliest stages of smart phone and tablet application development, music making tools were often no better than novelty toys . But, today’s applications offer professional grade audio and features that may even rival the real deal!

  4. 1-2 With the modest prices of applications now available, there is almost no limit to the amount of instrumentation and sound processing equipment one can own. It’s there. Right in the palm of your hand!

  5. One of the best features of a smartphone or tablet is that it’s available to you at any time. Whether you’re on the bus or in the studio, you can bring out your favorite instrument and start having a good time right away. These apps are fun!

  6. Perhaps the greatest advantage of music applications for the smartphone or tablet is it’s ease of use. They are all is so intuitive that instructions are barely needed. No costly lessons required!

  7. Community Many people would like to pass off smartphone and tablet instruments as silly toys or games, but thanks to the attention garnered by some the big-name industry-types, these valuable tools are finally getting recognition. Could the Gorillaz have made an entire album almost exclusively using a toy?Many talented musicians are now developing their own applications. Jordan Rudess, keyboardist for Dream Theatre, has created some of the best music musical apps currently available.

  8. Many musical applications feature the ability to export your compositions to social media sites like Twitter and SoundCloud. This makes it easier than ever to meet like minded individuals or possible collaborators.With only minimal effort you can experience new works to learn from or be inspired by.

  9. Thanks to user generated content, many of the apps available today offer the ability to customize sound. Customization communities are springing up, allowing for additional free content for already owned applications.

  10. Need an extra set of hands for your next project?One of he best parts about the ever-growing community of application artists is the chance to make new friends.

  11. Support There are two main operating systems for most smart phones and tablets. Which is better? Android has its fair share of musical applications, but what makes the iPhone stand apart is that it’s a unified operating system.No matter what iPhone you pick up, the system will always be the same. Androids, though great in their own right, suffer because carrierand manufacturer customizations can dramatically alter functionality and create compatibility issues.

  12. User manuals, application reviews, customizations, and tutorials abound online. With this wealth of knowledge learning the ins and outs of every musical app is as easy starting up an internet browser.

  13. Another great aspect of mobile music making is the stability of the platform. Smartphones and tablets rarely crash which lends itselfto live performances. Plus, if your phone breaks or is stolen, all you have to do is get a new one, and all of the applications you paid for will still be available to you. Facing similar problems with hardware instruments can Easily become costly.

  14. If you decide you want to upgrade your guitar, it will cost you. However, with music applications the upgrades are almost always free. That means that as the tools get better, you can too, at no additional cost. There is nothing like similar as far as real instruments go.If your vintage Moog breaks, Moog probably won’t ship you a new one for free.If Ibanez changes it’s guitar line up the next year, you won’t get the new one unless you buy it.
