    1. Audiobus support.

    I know that NI prolly won't even bother with this, but let's face the facts. Major audio app designers has this feature. Even big developers like Korg, Moog, and Propellerheads have support for this in all their apps.

    2. Audio copy / paste

    Same here I'm afraid. But let's face it. I can copy audio from Rebirth, and incorporate it in FL Studio. It would make it so much simpler to produce full tracks on the go with just iMaschine if this was supported.

    3. At least 3 more sequences.

    Same goes here. It's good to have 1 sequence, but I'd love to see 3 more sequences so one can make some variations in the beats.

    Ni rocks!

    iMaschine Rocks" I get NI's concept, that said, my Son is an early Maschine advocate, me from the old school, I learned and used 24 trk 2inch tape on the old studer's and the likes, I was told by my Son and his crew, get the sketch down and they'll get me up to speed on the new gear, they have Maschine, Massive and most of the Maschine Expansion set,

    what make iMaschine the best app out there bar none, is its simplicity, it's not designed to replace Maschine or any other sequencer of choice it's designed to enhance.

    the graphics first attracted me, then the intuitiveness, an lastly the sound, which I didn't expect to be so good ... I would have paid $20 for it, as I feel it's worth that. One of the
    biggest mistakes I feel made with this platform was the price, they would hear a whole lot more appreciation if they would have charged more (human flaw) lack of appreciation. If
    it's inexpensive, they think it lacks quality, WRONG! it the best app in the App Store. but it doesn't hurt or cost that much to improve on a killer concept, not necessarily in the function dept. like skinning, as colors effort ppl differently and ergonomics like a way to full screen the pads etc. but lastly a way to chop user samples, if that doesn't take place not to worry, they do a great job at the expansion lab"

    iMaschine needs a ground-up rework. There's very little in it that was well thought out, and that's probably why it hasn't been updated in forever.

    I've just plain given up, there are far better apps that do what iMaschine does and more.

    iMaschine 1.0.5?

    iMaschine is the bomb" I just erased all my other audio based iOS apps, because I truly believe that this is "the ultimate" in an iPhone mobile studio app" NI nailed it! in the think
    tank"
    As a veteran, I can really appreciate the non destructive editing capabilities of digital audio sequencers. I own every app in the App Store that relates to audio tracking, most are over done, and too complicated to do any real good, you still have to use a full blown setup to complete a master of your work, that said,

    let's talk about workflow" I'm a professional musician, and I have tracked at the finest studio's this country has to offer, my typical workflow is to do some type of sketch, or a demo if you will, then go to my favorite lab and mix and edit to the finished product. In this way
    iMaschine shines because it allows me to utilize what I've done, letting it be the foundation for the finished product.

    What NI needs to do, because they know this app better than anyone, is create a workflow tutorial for the novice or pro at beatmaking, a short yet step by step look at laying down the sketch, from setting the tempo to creating the 8, 16, or 32 bars on the 1 to 4 sections of their groove,
    Showing them how to change the different sections, so it doesn't sound like a 4 bar phrase looped etc. then they can take it to the next stage at the lab of their choice"
    a basic wav editor would be nice in Version 1.0.5 ☺

    thanks to the crew at NI!

    You have got to be kidding me. What NI needs to do, since they have ownership over the app, is to continue development on it. It's hobbled as bad as the author in Misery.

    You speak the truth! If it wasn't for iMaschine I would still hold on to my MPC 1000. I got rid of it to join the Maschine train.

    I had a house just to protect all my equipment for producing. Because of iMaschine I could sell all that stuff and invest it in 300 iPhones, a Vodafone contract and a car battery.

    I believe it will be one year on the 22nd of this month" since update, if its more money they want, then at least create desktop software native to iMaschine to help the editing process i.e slicing, multitracking, mixing etc. and let iMaschine act as a controller" that would easily be worth another
    $100 US" come on guys "THINK"

    Yeah, a desktop version of the mobile version of Maschine would be dope and so useful, there is nothing like slicing, multitracking and mixing software available for PC, as you said. I "THOUGHT" like you

    its really sad that most of these companies don't get the big picture, they should hire ppl that's been there done that, who understands the workflow issues and the creative process, selling 2 million Maschine's ain't gonna happen tomorrow, or any time soon, but selling 5 million iOS apps is a walk in the park"
    hey guys here a clue, hire musicians, real musicians at least for marketing"you might as well except that the moble revolution is on and poppin"music production is a zone thing, people are recording at multiple locations today and not just in the labs
