Developer Nikolozi Meladze released a new app, MIDI Editor, that is designed to let you easily compose on an iPad.

MIDI Editor turns your iPad into a music sketchpad. It lets you compose melodies, chord progressions and drum patterns, and it works with synths and music apps that support MIDI input.

Here are the details:

Features:

• No complicated editing modes.
• Simply tap anywhere on the grid to create a note.
• Tap on the existing note to remove it.
• Press and hold a note for a split second to select it, then drag your finger to adjust the note’s length, position or pitch.
• Precisely edit a note’s position and length on the timeline by zooming in to its exact location.
• Velocity Mode: Select a note and drag your finger vertically to adjust its velocity.
• Adjust vertical and horizontal zooms independently on the grid.
• Export the MIDI files to other apps such as Dropbox, Cubasis and Mail.
• Change which app the MIDI Editor controls by selecting a MIDI Output.
• Background Audio Mode: MIDI clip continues looping in the background while you tweak synth’s parameters.
• Adjustable Tempo and MIDI Clip length.
• Supports landscape and portrait modes.

MIDI Editor for iPad is available now in the App Store.
