Great app. A few small bugs and Ui improvements needed. But after owning an akai force, I can say this is the closest thing in ios format I have seen. I know beat maker 3 is the users choice for an MPC experience, but I found it to be too deep and DAW like. Vatanator pro is a simpler user experience and feels more immediate like an MPC.
Vatanator Pro has a TON of potential and I do like the workflow geared more toward live usage. As Mash pointed out, Beatmaker 3 is a really good MPC experience, but this is much quicker to get things going quick… plus Vatanator has clip launching similar to Abelton Live. There are some bugs that surely will get squashed, but in general, this is going to be fun if/when updates fix the issues. The one thing that I REALLY want is an AU3 app with multi-out support.
really nice app but the inter app instruments crash the thing without fail on ios 16.
