I hear you about downsizing. I had so much music gear before. Gave it all away and now I only have my iPad, a MIDI controller, an audio interface and a mic. And I've never had so much fun making music! It's just so fast and straightforward, I love it. Less is more.
When I first started producing, I needed a roomful of expensive gear plus an electronics guy on call _just to get started_ recording on your state-of-the-art 4 track, LOL. Now it all fits in my iPad bag... 👍
I’m sure you’ll never get a question like this again. I’m 73 years old. I’ve been a session player since 1967 ( did one session with the Wtecking Crew in LA back in 69 ) . I’m totally into analog ,and recording everything on my iPad with no plug ins . I’ll record an acoustic guitar first with no click track, then tap out a rhythm on anything that will create a percussive sound ( cardboard box,empty tin can, handclaps etc. Then a bass track ,and lastly the vocals which I just sing with the original first acoustic guitar track. I’ve been using my old iPad Air ,hence no way to interface a microphone. It’s just getting ideas ,and vocal harmonies down.My daughter gave me an Apple Macbook five years ago, I’ve tried recording on it using a Focusritd 2n2 with two Rode condenser mics. However , I only know how to use GarageBand in the very early itinerations , which are the best if you want to record the way I do. The iPad has a very early GarageBand ,so it’s quite easy as there are not a lot of work around. But the fact that the iPad is limited to recording with the built in mics, which are of course a joke . Then when I go to the MacBook, it’s a new GarageBand, and it’s got so much shit going on , it just will not let me get a simple all live, all mic recording. The ONLY thing I use on GarageBand is the microphone,and acoustic guitar, I don’t go near any looping,bass,keyboards ,drums or anything else. The Focusrite works fine, but as the GarageBand on MacBook had soooo many paths you have to go through, just to try and get a good vocal ,and acoustic guitar sound ( I like to record the acoustic where you can hear the click of the pick hitting the strings on chords ) . So my MacBook 2013 I believe has not been used hardly at all 120 charges on battery , as I like to not be cumbeted down with more wires . All in all I’ll bet I’ve not put 100 hours on the MacBook. Here we are Jan. 2019 . I want to sell the MacBook, and get a 12.9 inch first or second generation iPad Pro . That would give me a large screen, and it’s my understanding that Focusrite has a new interface for iPads , ( Focusrite on MacBook is USB , which seems insane ) . “ get to the question you fuck8mg idiot “ ! OK, OK , be kind I’m an old man. If I get an iPad Pro that I would use ONLY for recording , what would you suggest I use ,what simple app with say 16 channels where I can use the new Focusrite iPad interface , using my Rode mics ,and get ONLY what I would use to mic everything . Remember I’m coming from a 4 ,then eight track analog tape background . Obviously with 8 or possibly 16 tracks on tape, you would still bounce tracks ( Queen ) . I’m hell bent on getting my own compositions recorded with great fidelity . Rather like what recorded music sounded like on studio playbacks in late sixties . I’ll leave you with this. Beatles sing “ I Will “ Paul did that all acoustic guitar ,overdubbed harmonies ,and 12 string intervals ,and a percussion sound. That’s the sound quality I’m looking . If ANYBODY has read my entire post here, I applaud you . I would have stopped after first sentence . I know I’m going retro, but that’s what I do best . Thank You .
Your TH-cam videos have been a game changer for me. Switching to iOS production was something I’ve been contemplating for awhile but it can be frustrating at times. Your info has provided a lot of clarity and has gave me the confidence to know I can produce the way I want to in iOS!!! Thanks a million!!! The fact that you even do this is absolutely inspiring and I appreciate it immensely!!!
This whole process has fulfilled me so much. Giving back and sharing knowledge is the key to longevity and a great legacy! I’m gonna try my best to keep it going 🙏🏼
you just sold me the ipad pro! I used an ipad mini 2 for two yrs now and have spent over 100euros just for the apps, which is ironic because its like half of the money ud spend on your device itself. now that i work with elektron machines and actual synths an ipad can work as an actual syth, controlled by an external sequencer, how crazy is that? love your style and the commitment, cheers!
Bro, you are so on point. A true inspiration. Your info is clutch, but what really sets you apart is them little pep talks you be giving. I hope you realize that you’re touching people in miraculous ways with your words. Church, young.
Dude your my favorite Channel right now I have the 12.9 pro iPad and I didn’t think I could do a quarter of the stuff youve shown me. You could do a commercial for Apple. I think more people need to know the versatility of the iPad with music production. Keep it up man I friggin LOVE it
It was inevitable that the iPad would become a powerful tool for music creation. I’m glad we’re finally getting to a point where even pros use them. The future is bright!
This just inspired me more than you realized. I started going to school for audio engineering and because of money reasons, I can’t go back so ima try to go to music school. Only problem is I need something to make music on. I’m stressing about getting a MacBook Pro but now I’m considering the iPad pro
Man I was getting ready to sign off after you finished that last app. I was holding cell listening to this vid and purchasing Lumavision on my iPad then I heard the most inspirational words I’ve heard in a very long time. Thanks Henny for not just posting these product/app reviews but for giving those really meaningful thoughts at the end of your vids. Gonna really sit down and recalibrate my lifestyle workflow. You seem real happy and having a bunch of stuff ain’t the solution. I wish you the best in life Man and once again Thank You
I’ve been using a lot of the apps you went over and my favorites now are BeatMaker 3, AUM, Cubasis, Zeeon, Bram Bos apps, Korg Gadget, SoundScaper and FieldScaper, Groovebox and the list of AUv3 especially apps by Audio Damage. There so many apps 😃
Really appreciate the snapshot all these apps and then an explanation why you use what you use. With so much decontextualized info out there, this was educational and insightful on the work/life level. Thank you.
Really glad you touched on why you downsized your studio and started creating on the iPad. Creating on the iPad is a major plus because it’s nearly instant. The iPads portability helps and the cost of apps. I can’t see myself going back to my MacBook to make beats
I just found the channel because I was trying to find out how people are using the iPad. I know you from Kendrick and that Sherene break down you did!! Dope, btw. I like your more condensed set up and am following closely now. Peace bro.
Man, I am new to your channel. Maybe you have already answered this question. I know that you wanted to go back to your roots, come back to making simple decisions while composing, but just wanted to ask - is now iPad really your only tool for making music? Or do you export your ideas to a computer DAW for the finalisation in the studio? Or do you just export final version for mastering in the studio?
Great video as always. Definitely one of your best. I recently caught on to your page and have been running through the videos. Absolutely great information with a great delivery. One app I noticed you kind of skipped over was ThumbJam. I don’t really use it for sounds but the main reason I find it extremely useful is the midi scale lock function. It can map any scale even exotic scales to my midi keyboard and map it to the c major scale or all the white keys. I’m not great at playing keys but I can play the hell out of c major and a minor lol. And if you don’t have a midi keyboard available I find it to be one of the best midi controllers as well.
Love your videos bro..Very inspiring. I recently jumped into iOS producing for almost the same reasons. I was tired of being locked in the lab..Ive been creating beats outside for the last 3 weeks and it feels great..i basically have everything I need on my iPad from sampling to synths and basses. Now i seen Luma Fusion im not sure im going back to my computer...
Hey hey Henny. You make a great change in the way I produce, and write, using my Ipad. I've been producing for over 20 years. I can now write away from the studio, and then import my tracks from anywhere. Those apps, you recommended really helped me greatly. Thank you, because it helps me hang with the young catz producing. Thank you again.
Great video homie! I got a couple great apps from your recommendations. I just started using the ipad and so far I'm loving it. They are just so convenient because as a DJ and producer I can have all my tools on 1 device in 1 place! The ipad is amazing for music, it's definitely much better than i thought it would be and it's made life easier for sure. I wish I had a good piano app recommendation for you but I dont have anything new for you that you dont already have. Anyways, thanks for a good video, I'll be sure to catch another one and follow up. Later bruh!
That end though..when i finally built my full studio from the midi keyboard to the Yamaha HS8s, sub and pretty much every plugin i wanted....i now make way less music, so that end part definitely touched me. I need to cut out a lot and get back to the music itself, without worrying about what was used to get there
I’ve been researching music apps for iOS for the past five years. My first requirement is that they be absolutely free with no ads...ha! So that does limit my choices, but also forces me to look far and wide. Your video is invaluable because you have a focused list of professional level iOS tools. I’d suggest you could go a little slower; sometimes you’d rattle off 4 or 5 names, there was no text on the screen when this happened, so I missed it. Also, the list of links was not in the same order that you spoke of them in the video - made it a little hard to follow along. But very cool, and you upped my game in 10 minutes flat!
I have just about all of these and more! Thanks for putting us on! I never thought that I’d enjoy working from my iPad as much or more then from my Mac or MacBook! They even integrate well. This stuff is amazing and, with tech constantly improving, we can constantly find ways to push passed limitations!
And the Colossus Piano app is the absolute best piano app on IOS. The concert piano has 24 layers per key. The upright sounds amazing too. It’s free to download however the in app purchases are steep. The file sizes are also extremely large but it has to be with all it entails. Definitely worth a look. Also audio unit compatible.
Awesome in-depth video man. I’m seeking to put my creative ideas to work!! Very educational and I appreciate the words of encouragement at the end. Thank you😎✌🏽
This is so dope- You have a gift for educating people. Are you completely iOS for music production? Or, do you start ideas on iPad then finish them on desktop?
Only thing stopping me from using iPad Pro 11 12.9 as my main recording set up is because I can’t find away to get my plugins I have bought over the years in to garage band Is there a way? Hopefully logic will work on the new ipad once they bring out ipad OS
First of all, your knowledge is very much appreciated. If you don't mind sharing, I'd be happy to know what kind of camera(s) you use, and the type of rig?! Thanks again for sharing gold bro.
I am really thankful for the time you take to educate us and keeping us up to date. Me personally, I am studying audio engineering and it’s really informative, but you are living proof that it doesn’t need to have those big and pricey setups to make good music. Would you mind showing us your workflow from beat creation to mastering and uploading? Maybe even how you handle your filming setup and editing ... I mean from start to finish? Because I feel really stuck on how I want to go on in the future about producing and marketing my work and myself God bless you, I hope you reply
Henny Tha Bizness thanks man I appreciate it. Watching you work and how and when you use your apps from start to finish would greatly benefit us producers to see where in particular our workflow would benefit from iOS production. It’s nice to know you care
Werdrath I just lack in keeping my motivation up when in my head I know what to do but it takes so long on certain DAWs and plugins or apps to get there, it just kills the flow and I don’t enjoy doing those repetitive elongated obnoxious tasks and just loosing the momentum. It’s been months since I last enjoyed making beats
Thanks for that awesome video man! That just confirmed that I made the right decision as well. My iPad is definitely my main device for anything! For music, photos, videos and etc. I am just struggling a bit now since it the the iPad mini 2. Need an upgrade.
Hi Mr. Henny, you videos are always a big help for anyone trying to make music on a 125 GB iPad. Just wondering, with all the apps that you have, how do you manage to keep all and still have memory space to make music. If you could share how to manage all those apps and use it when you anytime. Thank you so much and more power to you.
I have a 17inch gaming asus pc with reaper (daw) but it only holds about 2 hours of battery charge and it’s heavy. I was looking into iOS for a more portable solution and now I’m seeing this iPad with all the apps is probably more powerful than my current setup. Thanks for the dope video man.
You‘re awesome! I was looking for an iPad App I can correct my vocals with - thanks to you, I found it: the VirSyn stuff will do the job. Also LumaFusion seems pretty cool! I have a lot of Mac plugins and usually produce with Cubase and NI Komplete, but just like you said: sometimes it‘s useful to shrink the setup to achieve an outstanding result... and thanks to the iPad and the great Apps available, this is now possible! Keep it up man, all the best!
I think I’m a bit behind the curve since I’ve managed to avoid using beat maker 3 and am still stuck to my mac using Logic but mainly for my Maschine and using my iPad as peripheral for the apps I love and I have a lot of the same favorites, patterning is my favorite interface for making glitchy variations on my drums, and Audiobus 3 is my main tool to bring my gear together and bus into Logic or Ableton (besides Maschine and NI Komplete it’s the main reason I’m not ready to give up the extra gear just yet, it’s just too wild for live performances and using the midi effects on my live controllers and midi guitar playing), but I’m gonna check out Beatmaker and see if it can do the job, you seem like a man who knows his biz! Thx fam. Great presentation btw
Peace Henny, thank for this video. A lot has change in how we do music production over the years. Just like you, I have had tons of music production gear. Yes as you get older, you want to keep up with the younger music producers. I all the way agree. As I write this, I am considering getting the ipad Pro 12.9. My current set up, in the 2nd phase of my music life. MPC REN, MIDI CONTROLLER AND iMAC. I'm ready for the third phase ipad, and mini controller. Thank you for sharing what you use, especially the video apps. BTW we both have a mutual friend Needlz. Peace my G. -Neek Rusher
I like your newest back ground choice. It is a richer as in color and background interest. I think one of the best right now on TH-cam. The only ones better are the news channel like foxnews etc.
What a fantastic well presented, incredibly articulate easy to follow presentation. 5 star straight forward content that has everything needed to suggest this video as a "must watch". Thanks for posting ✌️
Just want to say thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience, we as people should never stop growing and learning @ 25:24 forward your final thought resonated with me being that I'm a designer in the process of rethinking and changing up my processes and work flow. Take care and God bless
It’s crazy. I basically have the same setup more or less. I produce more than ever on the iPad even tho I have desktop Daws. Ran into the same productivity issues and frustrations between balancing family, hobbies, and work. You are blowing out all the secrets man. Especially with Procreate. I love that app. I also use family sharing to share apps with family members so they don’t have to rebuy apps. Macs file sharing is also a dream especially when you don’t even need WiFi to share files. Great work Henny
This is dope! However, I want to know how you handle/manage file sizes. I'm sure with the number of projects you're working on, file storage will accumulate fast. Please, I want to know your production process. Thanks!
Apps not on your list that I'd suggest checking out: - Auxy (Groovebox in an app) - iMaschine (NI goodness in an app) - Bebot (a fun little synth) - AUM (Audio mixer) - Spacecraft (Granular Synthesis) - Tardigrain (more granular synthesis) Keep enjoying that iPad!
Henny!! Love your videos. Just curious what vst would you suggest for modern funk or gfunk sounds? Trying to find warm lush pads but having a hard time
Thanks for sharing these I am trying to learn to be a ipad producer and add that to my arsenal definitely a lot of cool apps will be checking out a few of these and getting slow by slow because they add up lol $$$
I hear you about downsizing. I had so much music gear before. Gave it all away and now I only have my iPad, a MIDI controller, an audio interface and a mic. And I've never had so much fun making music! It's just so fast and straightforward, I love it. Less is more.
Exactly!! 🙏🏼
Totally.
The less you have the more creative you will be so I agree!
When I first started producing, I needed a roomful of expensive gear plus an electronics guy on call _just to get started_ recording on your state-of-the-art 4 track, LOL. Now it all fits in my iPad bag... 👍
Alright Bro. Henny. You’ve convinced me. Headed to pick up an iPad now 😂
I’m sure you’ll never get a question like this again. I’m 73 years old. I’ve been a session player since 1967 ( did one session with the Wtecking Crew in LA back in 69 ) . I’m totally into analog ,and recording everything on my iPad with no plug ins . I’ll record an acoustic guitar first with no click track, then tap out a rhythm on anything that will create a percussive sound ( cardboard box,empty tin can, handclaps etc. Then a bass track ,and lastly the vocals which I just sing with the original first acoustic guitar track. I’ve been using my old iPad Air ,hence no way to interface a microphone. It’s just getting ideas ,and vocal harmonies down.My daughter gave me an Apple Macbook five years ago, I’ve tried recording on it using a Focusritd 2n2 with two Rode condenser mics. However , I only know how to use GarageBand in the very early itinerations , which are the best if you want to record the way I do.

Did you get it figured out? I hope you’re having fun with the music tools and production! ☺️

Thank you
Stay until the end. The reward of wisdom. TH-cam is a great medium to bring real people straight into one another hearts. This dude is one of them!
Thank you for those words. I truly means a lot! I appreciate you
The last tip about prayer and letting God grow me was the word of the season. I’m Glad I stayed til the end. Thx man !
Thanks for watching 🙏🏼
I dusted off the Akai MPK Mini this week! This video is just what I needed. Another great one, Henny 👊
Bro, you are so on point. A true inspiration. Your info is clutch, but what really sets you apart is them little pep talks you be giving. I hope you realize that you’re touching people in miraculous ways with your words. Church, young.
Dude your my favorite Channel right now I have the 12.9 pro iPad and I didn’t think I could do a quarter of the stuff youve shown me. You could do a commercial for Apple. I think more people need to know the versatility of the iPad with music production. Keep it up man I friggin LOVE it

Salute to you, MSXII Audio, Marv4Mo Beats and everyone else that are pushing the iOS movement. You guys are inspirational!
Yessir! Those are my guys!! Thanks for the encouragement 👊🏼
The last 3 minutes of this video are straight soul-food and mind-food goodness! Thank you Benny for your wisdom and iOS guru game! 🙏🏼✌🏼
This just inspired me more than you realized. I started going to school for audio engineering and because of money reasons, I can’t go back so ima try to go to music school. Only problem is I need something to make music on. I’m stressing about getting a MacBook Pro but now I’m considering the iPad pro
Let’s dive right into it. At nearly 2 minutes. But seriously, thanks for this. Very useful and appreciated.
You have became my favorite TH-camr after I watched some of your videos man! Keep up!
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Man I was getting ready to sign off after you finished that last app. I was holding cell listening to this vid and purchasing Lumavision on my iPad then I heard the most inspirational words I’ve heard in a very long time. Thanks Henny for not just posting these product/app reviews but for giving those really meaningful thoughts at the end of your vids. Gonna really sit down and recalibrate my lifestyle workflow. You seem real happy and having a bunch of stuff ain’t the solution. I wish you the best in life Man and once again Thank You
Thank you so much fam! Yes I’m truly happy content but still highly motivated. It’s a daily process 🙏🏼. Happy New Year to you and yours ✊🏼
I’ve been using a lot of the apps you went over and my favorites now are BeatMaker 3, AUM, Cubasis, Zeeon, Bram Bos apps, Korg Gadget, SoundScaper and FieldScaper, Groovebox and the list of AUv3 especially apps by Audio Damage. There so many apps 😃
The last part of your video was insane, thank you for sharing. 'Video letters' that's so creative
I appreciate the feedback!
You are a clearly a serious professional and that info was on point. Thank you sir!
Thank you for the words 🙏🏼
This video open my mind about ipad’s utility in audio and video production. Thanks a lot!
Glad I could help 🙏🏼
New to iOS as a musician. Great video! Would like to hear more on how you are interfacing keys, midi, and other instruments into the iPad.
I’ll definitely add that to the list of idea videos 👍🏼
Really appreciate the snapshot all these apps and then an explanation why you use what you use. With so much decontextualized info out there, this was educational and insightful on the work/life level. Thank you.
Really glad you touched on why you downsized your studio and started creating on the iPad. Creating on the iPad is a major plus because it’s nearly instant. The iPads portability helps and the cost of apps. I can’t see myself going back to my MacBook to make beats
I can listen to that intro beat all day long. Goes hard. Love your channel man, positive and great energy every time!!!!
Thanks you fam! Here’s a link to the episode when I made it: th-cam.com/video/KQN9-AhCyhI/w-d-xo.html
Those last 2 minutes are Gold! Thx!
Thank you 🙏🏼🙌🏼🙏🏼
The last words of advice was just so encouraging. Thank you.
Family man. I respect that bro.
I just found the channel because I was trying to find out how people are using the iPad. I know you from Kendrick and that Sherene break down you did!! Dope, btw. I like your more condensed set up and am following closely now. Peace bro.
Thank you fam!
Last part - the best! Thanks man!
Thank you!
Man, I am new to your channel. Maybe you have already answered this question. I know that you wanted to go back to your roots, come back to making simple decisions while composing, but just wanted to ask - is now iPad really your only tool for making music? Or do you export your ideas to a computer DAW for the finalisation in the studio? Or do you just export final version for mastering in the studio?
Great video as always. Definitely one of your best. I recently caught on to your page and have been running through the videos. Absolutely great information with a great delivery.
One app I noticed you kind of skipped over was ThumbJam. I don’t really use it for sounds but the main reason I find it extremely useful is the midi scale lock function. It can map any scale even exotic scales to my midi keyboard and map it to the c major scale or all the white keys. I’m not great at playing keys but I can play the hell out of c major and a minor lol. And if you don’t have a midi keyboard available I find it to be one of the best midi controllers as well.
Thank you for the feedback! I’m trying to get better, video by video so that means a lot!
Love your videos bro..Very inspiring. I recently jumped into iOS producing for almost the same reasons. I was tired of being locked in the lab..Ive been creating beats outside for the last 3 weeks and it feels great..i basically have everything I need on my iPad from sampling to synths and basses.

You got a new subscriber bro♥️
That last part about the video was so inspirational, I’m definitely calibrating my expectations and going to pray on it. Thanks brother!
🙏🏼
Damn. Video quality is beautiful.
Thank you!
Hey hey Henny. You make a great change in the way I produce, and write, using my Ipad. I've been producing for over 20 years.

Invaluable information as always man... especially w/ touching on vid editing as well. Much appreciated.... God bless
nice for Jakob Haq shoutout!
Good video dude. Im surprised most of these are my go to also
Love your videos! Hope to walk a similar path as you have in your life. Hope 2019 is your best year yet
Awesome video. Last 2 minutes is pure knowledge 🙌⚡️
Came here from TLD. Dope channel bro👏🏿
I’ve been researching music apps for iOS for the past five years. My first requirement is that they be absolutely free with no ads...ha!

Man Henny. Great content as ever. Love the knowledge you drop the last minutes. It‘s absolutely the same way i feel man! Salute!!!
Thank you! 🙏🏼
I have just about all of these and more! Thanks for putting us on! I never thought that I’d enjoy working from my iPad as much or more then from my Mac or MacBook! They even integrate well. This stuff is amazing and, with tech constantly improving, we can constantly find ways to push passed limitations!
Exactly! Thanks for the feedback and support! I appreciate it !
Great content, keep it up bruh. I see you speak highly of beat maker 3, can you do a in depth video for it?
If you check videos a few back I did just that! Thanks for checking it out!
And the Colossus Piano app is the absolute best piano app on IOS. The concert piano has 24 layers per key. The upright sounds amazing too. It’s free to download however the in app purchases are steep. The file sizes are also extremely large but it has to be with all it entails. Definitely worth a look. Also audio unit compatible.
I need to check that one out. Thanks
Awesome in-depth video man. I’m seeking to put my creative ideas to work!! Very educational and I appreciate the words of encouragement at the end. Thank you😎✌🏽
I added tone stacks and final touch huge improvement thank you
From Spain Henny, your content is massive. Thanks very much for sharing knowledge and humor :)
Thank you! I appreciate it
I’m glad I ran across this video. It definitely changed my thought process. Thanks for sharing.
This is so dope- You have a gift for educating people. Are you completely iOS for music production? Or, do you start ideas on iPad then finish them on desktop?
For the most part I am. Unless I’m working in an analog environment, it’s pretty much iOS for me bro! Thanks again for the kind words!!
Only thing stopping me from using iPad Pro 11 12.9 as my main recording set up is because I can’t find away to get my plugins I have bought over the years in to garage band
Is there a way?
Hopefully logic will work on the new ipad once they bring out ipad OS
Music making and producing on iOS devices is the future if you ask me! Respect for Henny 😎
Thanks for watching! Let me know what apps I missed out on!! 🙏🏼 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼
First of all, your knowledge is very much appreciated. If you don't mind sharing, I'd be happy to know what kind of camera(s) you use, and the type of rig?! Thanks again for sharing gold bro.

Great video Henny. Thank you. I’ve been having a blast making beats and great sounds very quickly with Groove Rider GR16 by jimaudio.

I am really thankful for the time you take to educate us and keeping us up to date. Me personally, I am studying audio engineering and it’s really informative, but you are living proof that it doesn’t need to have those big and pricey setups to make good music. Would you mind showing us your workflow from beat creation to mastering and uploading? Maybe even how you handle your filming setup and editing ... I mean from start to finish? Because I feel really stuck on how I want to go on in the future about producing and marketing my work and myself
God bless you, I hope you reply
HeiA its crazy being an ios musician in a music business and engineering degree. I have done my entire time with it and well received
I’ll try my best in future vids! Thanks for support and ideas
Henny Tha Bizness thanks man I appreciate it. Watching you work and how and when you use your apps from start to finish would greatly benefit us producers to see where in particular our workflow would benefit from iOS production.
It’s nice to know you care
Werdrath I just lack in keeping my motivation up when in my head I know what to do but it takes so long on certain DAWs and plugins or apps to get there, it just kills the flow and I don’t enjoy doing those repetitive elongated obnoxious tasks and just loosing the momentum. It’s been months since I last enjoyed making beats
Thanks Henny, you are an absolute inspiration!
Right on 🙌🏼 ... thanks for the support!
Thanks for that awesome video man! That just confirmed that I made the right decision as well. My iPad is definitely my main device for anything! For music, photos, videos and etc. I am just struggling a bit now since it the the iPad mini 2. Need an upgrade.
freedom to work and travel thats a big plus. trying to get there.thanks!
I am loving these serious end bits with precious nuggets of info! Henny’s Siz Biz! Then the awesome shouty outro 😎 izsnisz.

Hi Mr. Henny, you videos are always a big help for anyone trying to make music on a 125 GB iPad. Just wondering, with all the apps that you have, how do you manage to keep all and still have memory space to make music. If you could share how to manage all those apps and use it when you anytime. Thank you so much and more power to you.
I have a 17inch gaming asus pc with reaper (daw) but it only holds about 2 hours of battery charge and it’s heavy. I was looking into iOS for a more portable solution and now I’m seeing this iPad with all the apps is probably more powerful than my current setup. Thanks for the dope video man.
No problem! Thanks for the support!
This is invaluable wisdom. Thanks brother for sharing!
Henny, You Rockin’Bro!
You lost me at 10:20 cause I start vibin to the backround music. 😁 Gonna have to watch it again lol
You‘re awesome! I was looking for an iPad App I can correct my vocals with - thanks to you, I found it: the VirSyn stuff will do the job. Also LumaFusion seems pretty cool! I have a lot of Mac plugins and usually produce with Cubase and NI Komplete, but just like you said: sometimes it‘s useful to shrink the setup to achieve an outstanding result... and thanks to the iPad and the great Apps available, this is now possible! Keep it up man, all the best!
Thansk for the great feedback! Wish you the best 🙏🏼
Thanks for those great and helpful tips man.
This dude is dope!! Thanks very useful stuff
Can you find something similar to gross beat or MRhythmizer for iPad?
Junior Pierre-Louis I see everybody is looking for that. So far no go
Yeah nothing as of yet. The closest would probably be a plugin inside of Cubasis but def not the same.
Replicant 2 gets kinda close to it. Not so much with pitching but stuttering and glitching effects
Thank you guys. I’ve been looking forever for it. I can’t find anything close to it but I am gonna try that replicant 2. Much respect Henny!
let us know how you like it. i'm going to try it as well
Thanks bro, I enjoy watching your vids and I always learn something new.
Great videos. Glad I found your page!
This is super helpful great vid
Thank you 🙏🏼
Bruh love patterning Just got it. Dope dope dope
I think I’m a bit behind the curve since I’ve managed to avoid using beat maker 3 and am still stuck to my mac using Logic but mainly for my Maschine and using my iPad as peripheral for the apps I love and I have a lot of the same favorites, patterning is my favorite interface for making glitchy variations on my drums, and Audiobus 3 is my main tool to bring my gear together and bus into Logic or Ableton (besides Maschine and NI Komplete it’s the main reason I’m not ready to give up the extra gear just yet, it’s just too wild for live performances and using the midi effects on my live controllers and midi guitar playing), but I’m gonna check out Beatmaker and see if it can do the job, you seem like a man who knows his biz! Thx fam. Great presentation btw
Subbed. Very informative. Thanks 👍🏼 QUESTION: has that problem with isem bleed been sorted yet?
Can u make an updated video of best music apps and ur music workflow for the new iPad pro
I’ll try my best 👌🏼
Peace Henny, thank for this video. A lot has change in how we do music production over the years. Just like you, I have had tons of music production gear. Yes as you get older, you want to keep up with the younger music producers. I all the way agree. As I write this, I am considering getting the ipad Pro 12.9. My current set up, in the 2nd phase of my music life. MPC REN, MIDI CONTROLLER AND iMAC. I'm ready for the third phase ipad, and mini controller. Thank you for sharing what you use, especially the video apps. BTW we both have a mutual friend Needlz. Peace my G. -Neek Rusher
Dope. Yeah man Needlz is a great guy! Once you get used to using an iPad and all they it can do with it’s portability... game changer for real!
I like your newest back ground choice. It is a richer as in color and background interest. I think one of the best right now on TH-cam. The only ones better are the news channel like foxnews etc.
What a fantastic well presented, incredibly articulate easy to follow presentation. 5 star straight forward content that has everything needed to suggest this video as a "must watch". Thanks for posting ✌️
What memory size you running? Great videos. 🤙
I have the 512GB version.
Henny Tha Bizness thx Henn
Great Show Thanks for the tips 👊🏿✊🏿✌🏿
can i use dj pro to make premo type cuts on a beat in beatmaker 3?
I’ve never thought about that! I’ll have to check 🤔👌🏼👍🏼
Did you ever use iMPC Pro 2? If so, what did you hate and like about it? BM3 is cool, but I personally prefer the workflow of iMPC Pro 2.
Just want to say thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience, we as people should never stop growing and learning @ 25:24 forward your final thought resonated with me being that I'm a designer in the process of rethinking and changing up my processes and work flow. Take care and God bless
Thank you!! I appreciate your feedback! I’m trying my best daily to continue to grow and learn myself so I can become and even better teacher 🙏🏼
Man...thanks for the helpful tips!
Lol I’m watching this video on my iPad and I have the exact same cover as you, nice video 😀👍
Great video my friend !
Thank you family!
It’s crazy. I basically have the same setup more or less. I produce more than ever on the iPad even tho I have desktop Daws. Ran into the same productivity issues and frustrations between balancing family, hobbies, and work. You are blowing out all the secrets man. Especially with Procreate. I love that app. I also use family sharing to share apps with family members so they don’t have to rebuy apps. Macs file sharing is also a dream especially when you don’t even need WiFi to share files. Great work Henny
Thank you for the info! I’m glad to see so many like minded individuals out there. This community is a blessing 🙌🏼
Is impc pro 2 the way to go?
Bro your content is dope! Wow thanks for your content and sharing all your knowledge in music production with all this gadgets!
Which website you use to get the loops? Loop master, splice, another one? Thanks for your attentions ! 🙏
Also thanks for highlighting my comment, appreciate that man!
This is dope! However, I want to know how you handle/manage file sizes. I'm sure with the number of projects you're working on, file storage will accumulate fast. Please, I want to know your production process. Thanks!
Just wanted to say I love you man 🙏🏿
Wonderful and informative!
Apps not on your list that I'd suggest checking out:
- Auxy (Groovebox in an app)
- iMaschine (NI goodness in an app)
- Bebot (a fun little synth)
- AUM (Audio mixer)
- Spacecraft (Granular Synthesis)
- Tardigrain (more granular synthesis)
Keep enjoying that iPad!
My go to channel for the app game...
Henny!! Love your videos. Just curious what vst would you suggest for modern funk or gfunk sounds? Trying to find warm lush pads but having a hard time
Thanks for sharing these I am trying to learn to be a ipad producer and add that to my arsenal definitely a lot of cool apps will be checking out a few of these and getting slow by slow because they add up lol $$$
You are the number one absolutely 100%

That’s means a lot 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼. Thank you!
