Kudzu Creative Group has updated Koushion, its Tenori On style step sequencer for the iPad.

Here’s what’s new in Koushion 3.0:

• Multiple layer support (exponential flexibility increase!)
• Dark theme for better lighting in club settings

Key Features:

• 16 steps per scene (up to 128 steps in chain mode)
• 8 scenes with independent midi channel per scene
• 8 scene layers with independent key, quantization, and playback mode
• 4 playback modes: single, simultaneous, chain, rebound
• Key switching between any major, minor, or pentatonic scale
• Adjustable quantization (1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16 and 1/32)
• Quantized scene switching
• MIDI clock send/receive
• Tap to set tempo (great for syncing with a live band)
• Velocity control
• Monophonic drawing mode (only allows one note per step; great for programming leads)
• Wireless connectivity via CoreMIDI Network Sessions
• Automatic integration with other apps via CoreMIDI virtual ports. Open up a synth in the background and Koushion will trigger the notes!
• Dark theme to reduce eye strain when working in low-light environments

Koushion is available for US $7.99 in the App Store.
