Once connected, MidiPads sets itself apart with flexible control on each of those pads. Just tapping rectangles isn’t much fun on the iPad, of course – you lack tactile feedback and pressure sensitivity found on a physical pad. So, instead, MidiPads provides other modulation to exploit the touchable surface for continuous control. In fact, thinking of it as a “drum pad” is almost a bit unfair. New in this release:
- Presets, which you can share with other users – which could in turn make a nice little community of users here
- “Bouncing mode” for touch pads and sliders
- Send multiple messages with each axis and knob
- Individual up/down messages for each touch pad and slider, if you so wish
- Enhanced views, settings reset, and MIDI connection settings
- Resize pads and pad area (essential for either fat fingers or getting more controls!)
