This week's app is the Ableton Note app:

Ableton Note (https://www.ableton.com) Start new musical ideas with a curated selection of sounds and effects; play beats and melodic parts or sample; continue tracks in Ableton Live; form ideas, experiment with sounds, and find direction; get inspired using a selection of Ableton Live’s drum kits, synths, and melodic instruments; create own sound palette by recording sounds into Note’s sampler instruments using phone’s microphone; use Ableton Cloud to send projects to Live (version 11.2.5 or later) without leaving the app; open project from Live’s browser then keep working; edit MIDI notes; all samples and sounds from Note are exactly the same; begin with a beat: choose from 56 Drum Sampler kits; tap out a beat using the 16-pad grid; quantize beat to fix any loose timing; nudge notes to correct mistakes; add more layers of rhythm; create beat repetitions with Note Repeat; change parameters to shape sound; experiment with effects; start with a melody: choose from 261 synth sounds and 36 Melodic Sampler instruments; play melody or chord progression with either the 25-pad grid or the piano roll; set a key and scale to get instant harmonic results or leave options open; overdub more layers of harmony; change parameters to shape sound; add effects to experiment with sound design; sample environment: create own kits by recording percussive sounds into Note’s Drum Sampler; record tonal sounds to create own Melodic Sampler instruments; manipulate samples by cutting, filtering, or re-pitching them; shape or transform sounds with effects; capture improvisations: play something then tap the Capture button to keep it; play at the tempo that feels comfortable and Note will detect it; Note will recognize the length of the phrase; a loop is created automatically; quantize it, add to it, or change the sound; create variations: Note features a grid-based Session View layout; double loops to create variation within clips; duplicate clips and create different versions of ideas; create eight tracks with up to eight clips on eight scenes; try different layer combinations and song structures; export work in Session View as an audio file to listen and share; (iOS 15.0 or later).
