Native Instruments’ iMaschine was the first mobile version of a big desktop drum machine, and it also allows you to import samples and kits created on mobile.
ISpark isn’t exactly first in this territory. You can also exchange kits between the desktop and mobile versions, making this an effective satellite for the laptop version if you want to finish things there (in the studio, for instance). You can connect to other apps (Audiobus, IAA – hello, Elastic Drums and whatnot). You can drop in your own audio samples (AIFF/WAV). It also ticks a lot of other “serious” user boxes. It also comes with Ableton Link, for easy syncing and jamming with other apps, other iPads/iPhones, and Ableton Live (in any combination). And it even works with the dedicated SparkLE controller – meaning you now can go pad controller + iPad as you could controller + computer. It really looks a whole lot like the company’s drum machine on desktop, only remade for iPad. But the question for many is, can it replace a computer?Īrturia’s iSpark isn’t shy about what it accomplishes. We know an iPad can augment a music setup.
