Get the MOST STABLE apps avail. WAkai should have used these coders to help develop and maintain the mpc renaissance software. As of right now... I don't use my renaissance because if it crashes on me again during production I might break it unintentionally.
NANOSTUDIO hands down the best music production app avail on IOS

INSTRUMENTS
Up to 6 simultaneous instruments (including mixer) or upgrade with the '16 Instrument Tracks' in-app purchase, particularly recommended for newer devices.
'Eden', a powerful 16 voice subtractive synth with dual oscillators, 2 pole resonant filter, 3 envelope generators and 4 LFO's per voice and 2 dedicated insert effects. Eden's virtual patchbay lets you hook up almost anything for modulation mayhem.
The 'TRG-16', a performance pad for triggering samples. Adjust pitch, pan, volume and envelopes and assign each sample to one of the 3 output busses, each with its own effect sends and filter setup.
SAMPLING
Record samples with the built-in mic (iPod Touch requires external mic), resample NanoStudio's own output or upload your own samples using NanoSync for OS X/Windows. Edit your samples using NanoStudio's built-in wave editing tools (with multiple undo/redo) and process them offline with custom effects chains.
SEQUENCER
Record performances in real-time using the keys and trigger pads or create patterns and controller sweeps by drawing them in the piano roll editor. Arrange your patterns into a complete song using the track editor. You can edit while the song is playing and every operation has multiple undo/redo.
MASTERING
Nanostudio's mixer has 2 global effects sends, 4 insert effects per channel and you can record, edit and playback all your fader and pan changes. When you're ready to share your mix with others you can upload it direct to SoundCloud or use NanoSync to copy the exported .wav file to your Mac/PC.
EFFECTS
NanoStudio's reverb, compressor, parametric EQ, waveshaper, delay, chorus, and bitcrusher effects are all highly optimized so you can run lots of them.

4 tracks??? really.. I'll pass. Both of the aforementioned apps have up to 16 tracks and support voice recording via the mic input. You can also mix/master/finalize your tracks or send them indiv to your DAW. These programs are STABLE and AWESOME. I am still using them entirely until the 1.3 or 1.4 update... I can't go crazy, I'll let yall go for me.

Seems that you are trying to pull a Mitt Romney and twist the facts... Please EDIT your post to display the photos of the apps discussed. Thank you.

Your wife doesn't have an iPad? That's what I installed the app on (my wife's iPad). It's a pretty cool app outside of the 4 tracks.
And to the guy that mentioned the DRM issue, I was able to import a song directly from my wife's iTunes library on the iPad and chop it up. There's no chop shop, but it didn't give me any copyright messages! Don't know what that was about!
DJ Hellfire wrote:Maschine's sounds/pads are, in theory, tracks. So given iMaschine's 16 pads per 4 groups, that's 48 tracks/sounds that can be effected individually or exported individually as stems!
