MindWanderer Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 I'm sick of not being able to do music stuff on my current schedule, but if I could do it on my phone, that could change. I'm trying out the free demo of Caustic 3, which looks like it has a lot of potential but also a drastically different workflow that what I'm used to (Reaper). Sequencing looks really awkward: for instance, zoom and note length are the same control, and you can layer only two simple effects on one channel. FL Studio Mobile is also a thing, but I'm not seeing a free trial, and it's a bit more pricey (Caustic is on the Amazon App store and I have coins, so I can get it for $4.75. FL Mobile is $16). Anyone have any experience or tips for remixing on Android? Eino Keskitalo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoomDoom Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 FL studio mobile is meh. I would recommend Caustic 3 in this instance, it has a lot to work with, and it's cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timaeus222 Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 I tried FL Mobile and I'm just not impressed. It totally ruins my workflow. So you may want to wait until FL Mobile 3 comes out, and check that out before deciding, because it's much more like the desktop version.

Thirdkoopa Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 What about composing on a tablet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to be able to pull my phone out and putter around for small amounts of time, with little notice, wherever I happen to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabeel Ansari Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 Android has a limited selection of audio apps because the OS's ability to process low-latency audio is hacked together and not very good. You won't really find a vibrant and inspiring mobile music making environment unless you switch to iOS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astra Cat Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 I would seriously just get a small 7" windows tablet...hmmm... Other than that...I'm not sure, you're talking about using it at work or something? I would just use some kind of tracking/8-bit software to get ideas down that could export as a midi file, then transfer that to a desktop computer. iOS is probably better, or windows phone if it has any software that can compose...
