The iMS-20 App for the apple iPAD just got a little bit nicer. The new iMS-20 update gives the App full MIDI control over the MS-20 synth knobs and controls. The iMS-20 is a complete music production application for iPad, which consists of a Korg MS-20 analog synthesizer, an analog sequencer(Korg SQ-10), a drum machine (with pads), a seven-channel mixer with effects, and Korg's Kaoss Pad technology.

Since the iPAD was launched a few short months ago, it seems that everyone everywhere is coming out with cool Apps to make this device even better than it already is. I'm personally not a MAC fan, but I will definitely have an iPAD by the end of the year. The new, intuitive Korg iMS-20 application transforms users’ iPads into complete analog synth studios with a detailed recreation of the legendary Korg MS-20 semi-modular analog synth, along with a built-in 16-step analog sequencer, based on the Korg SQ-10.

The Korg Wavedrum is a pretty slick drum pad that can simulate the feel and sound of a real drum-head. The Wavedrum is perfect for producers who want a full sized drum pad to accurately get their sounds into the software capture program of choice. It can be used with fingers, hands, sticks, mallets, and brushes for the perfect sound characteristics that beat makers are looking for. The Wavedrum comes in either Black or Silver and there are hundreds of sounds and loops bundled with the hardware right out of the box. Check the Demo video and press release inside.
