Chordion for iPad

 

Chordion is a virtual synthesizer for the iPad.  What makes it unique is its layout – you can easily play chords with one hand and lead with the other.  Being able to trigger chords with one finger makes playing a breeze.

 

The sounds are decent and there’s also some effects like Delay and Wah.   There are some Polyphony and Envelope parameters as well.

 

Chordion is a cool music-making app, but it’s missing some key features like audio copy/paste.  Furthermore, the layout of this app would make it a great MIDI controller – we’d love to see the developers add MIDI-Out capabilities.

 

For $1.99, it’s hard to say anything bad about this app, but hopefully future updates will bring some welcomed additions.
