Ableton Note

Amaizing! Please keep the updates going! In a few flights and couch potatoing I bang 16 great beats. This is the best notes a music producer could have on their pockets. More sounds needed, but love the stock choices. Time signature change needed asap, we are not all techno heads here :)

I really like what the app is trying to do, and I appreciate that it is more focus on quick ideas. Though, I really would like to be able to edit the individual Mitty notes. Sometimes the timing does not work well when I try to use quantization, so it would be useful to be able to move the specific note into the correct location. This would be an update. I would really appreciate to use, and would make me use the app almost almost all the time.

the gradual and subtle updates have made such a difference i am really enjoying this app it's not full Ableton Live, but it does have the power to get your tracks started and for some people it can work to make a full instrumental that is ready to be published i used with Airpods and quanitize, cuz there is bluetooth latency... but get yourself a headphone adapter and wired headphones and have fun playing your music! Transferring projects from Note to Live is simple. I don't use the cloud, i airdrop it. Please keep that feature. These projects can grow with you. Plant the seeds to your ideas today! 🍀🫶✨🌱

As a Logic user, I have to say that the quality of this app tempts me over to Ableton. It’s a fantastic sketchpad which lets you jot down ideas so intuitively with your fingers on the screen, it’s hard for even a very fine keyboard or pad-based MIDI controller to match. Ideas can thus pour-out quick and dirty, aided by a well-curated batch of proprietary samples, then groomed with surprisingly precise tools from there. In about 40 minutes you can have something resembling a song ready to hit the desktop. I love it. Though simplicity is a strength in its design, there is some room for added depth via updates, and I welcome those which might learn from other excellent software out there, like Koala. But as it exists now, it’s an elegant and powerful app which is recommended to anyone looking for an excellent electronic music sketchpad. Many thanks to the devs for this

This is perfect for what I want. A super easy way to start making ideas , melodies and drum patterns quickly. Then they can be imported into ableton later. I’ve been producing since 2006 and using ableton since 2011. The bad reviews want this to be an intricate sound design tool with lots of plugins and devices. They are missing the point and need to stick with Korg Gadget etc which focus more on that. Note can very quickly create chord progressions and record musical ideas (which can still be very complex and involved). There are tons of instruments and sounds, which can be manipulated with macros which can even be automated. All I would request is an option to turn on the ability to see note names in the sequencer, as well as improved sampler abilities. They seem to be putting a lot of work into this so I am confident it will continue to grow, but it already is my favorite app and nothing is faster in terms of putting down an idea instantly.

I’ve played with many different iPhone music making apps over the past 10+ years I’ve been producing music. Of course nothing can replace a full fledged DAW on your desktop, but this comes about as close as you can get without it getting too cluttered. Maybe an iPad allows even more complex apps like Logic to function well on mobile, but on an iPhone, Ableton wins with this one. And they keep improving it. Starting a project on here is super fun, and then syncing it to Ableton’s free cloud to immediately take it further on the desktop version of Live when I’m back in the studio is game changing. Love this app!

Something is happening. First I have to say, as a person who doesn’t have the money to afford a computer, Ableton Note has been the one musical app to scratch my creative itch. It’s amazing. HOWEVER, lately my ideas haven’t been getting saved automatically. I worked on a project for more than an hour and as I tried to rename it to send to my band, the app wouldn’t allow me to make the name change. Did I mention that it did not save all of my hard work? I was so distraught! I don’t know if it’s my iPad or a software issue, but I loved the convenience of Ableton Note automatically saving my projects. It isn’t doing that for me anymore. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Don’t need or want Ableton, in its totality, on my phone. I want to jot down ideas, explore melodies, sketch out beats. This app is very cool, especially for the low price and the ability to open these little ideas into the larger desktop program.

Until you can Warp Audio, Hip Hop and R&B producers are limited to full expression. FL Mobile and Logic Mobile have this. It’s the only reason I keep them on my IPAD. Once you add this…OMG!!! Please consider adding this function ASAP. I mean, ABLETON is known for it’s audio manipulation…Let’s Gooooooo!

Very cool to get ideas down from scratch and easily transfer to studio. One annoying thing is that it won’t output into my car speakers, but outputs audio to my navigation speakers. Thought it had to do with the microphone being on but after turning it off, same thing happening. Not sure if it’s a vehicle issue or software.
