Harmony Systems has released Delora gbTouch 2, a free update to their $7.99 iPad application that functions as a remote controller for Apple’s GarageBand.

gbTouch 2 includes the most requested new features by gbTouch 1.0 users: track names and color-coded track type.

Tracks now have individual volume faders that adjust and show each track’s current volume setting. A “sound generator” edit panel has been added to tweak software instrument details, and all edit panels now show the corresponding track name.

gbTouch 2 also has “skins” – the look of the app can be changed to one of four styles from the iPad Settings application.

Here’s a video that demonstrates how gbTouch works:
