    1. Android is about 8 years behind in the area of audio apps, and Google isn’t doing what it would need to do to fix that, so the answer is still “No”.

    2. try caustic 3 ,free demo and only 10 bucks to enable save, also 10 for iPad, free for windows and mac
      It looks so much like gadget and its older

        1. But it is not like gadget or caustic in the way the GUI is
          Plus it cost on ipad and android, but it does go on sale like korg apps

  1. Was so excited to find they added a midi learn mode to the desktop app. Quickly got things set up to start recording with a tap of a foot pedal. So far so good. Grab my guitar, open an instance of Zurich only to discover it won’t work with the two audio recording Gadgets. That is where I really need this functionality as my guitars require both hands. Grrrr.

  2. So great, that they keep developing Korg Gadget.
    And I really like the new Sampler “Vancouver”.

    My biggest two points on the wishlist are:
    – Clip launching function as in Ableton Live
    – Midi Out

    Please support these feature request & this petition, if you like. Thanks!

  3. For me the real news here is the actual price point with the sale they are doing, at the corrent price and if you take into account that the Mac version is the whole thing, turns out the cheaper version is actually the Mac version..
    That is really interesting, and it states very clearly the impact that this crossover mac/ios thing is having in both worlds..
    IOS instruments are getting more expensive as well as vst/au instruments will eventually be getting cheaper
