iPad apps

[johnjen]

Ok so I hope this isn't 205 (I looked and didn't see it mentioned).

But I've been using AudioTools on my iTouch and it's a way kewl set of audio analysis tools. Some are free but the really kewl and informative ones cost a few $$.

I don't have an iPad, yet, but some of the apps within this suite are tailored just for the iPad.

The spectrum analysis tool is mighty handy for those who'd like a very portable way of seeing what the sound in your environment is.

I agree, it's a very handy app.

Oh and I forgot to mention EE Toolkit for those with a need to figure circuits-n-shit.

DJay for iPad 50% off. Supposedly the best iPad DJ app out there for just $9.99. I haven't seen it this low in months.

2 New apps from the minds, or wallets, of the

team.

Paper and Taposé.

Paper is free with in-app purchases (ballpoint pen/pencil/highlighter/one other), Taposé is 2.99$.

Technically Paper is by the team who originally came up with the Courier concept...and it shows. Absolutely beautiful app that works incredibly well considering there are no options to change opacity, brush size, etc.

The other app, Tapose on the other hand is a piece of crap. I followed these guys when they originally put out their Kickstarter page. These two guys who had nothing to do with the original concept basically wanted to recreate the courier on an ipad. They had very little experience with app development or designing UI and it sort of shows in the final product...

I bought taposé basically with the hope it will get better.

[MexicanDragon]

I believe Taposé was backed financially by J. Allard, who was over the Courier team. I'm thinking about doing what Dan did, buy it and hope it gets better. Debating buying the pen and the brush as well... Maybe the pencil too.

If you are looking for an app that does the split screen browser / note taking thing, I suggest Notes Plus. Really good note taking app that is very mature and a ton of neat features (like transcribing writing to text)

This seems pretty interesting...

Sorry if this has been asked and answered, but what's the best app for printing to a networked printer from an iPad? Assume a non-Airplay enabled printer. Also not a wireless network printer, it is hanging off an Airport Extreme's ethernet port.

EDIT: Also, I don't want to have a Mac on in order to print, so I think something like Printopia is out.

[HeadphoneAddict]

Try apple store for air-print compatible printers - no Mac with Printopia needed, for as little as $99 for an Epson.

I say this because without an AirPrint enabled printer or something like Printopia you can't print from iPad.

[The Monkey]

Not true, actually. Apps like Print n Share and HP eprint will do it, but it's clunky and not fun. You basically have to print your stuff from within the print app itself, which is annoying. So it can be done, but it isn't as simple as it should be an certainly not as easy as Airprint. Gas Face Apple for making this shit harder than it should be.

[HeadphoneAddict]

When I last used print n share i thought it still required a computer to be turned on. I see that's changed. It see's my wireless HP printer, in addition to the printers attached to my iMac. That's nice to know.

Another feature is offline viewing: You can download purchased and rented videos from Your Video Library and watch them when a Wi-fi connection is unavailable.

Wow, that's a neat feature!

Interesting updates to iPeng for those of you with an iPad and a USB DAC (24/96 pass through )

Going to cross post this in the Deals thread.

Looks like Corel bought the company that did "Avid Studio", a video app. I think it was 5-10$. It's been renamed to Pinnacle Studio for iPad, and is free for a limited time. From what the reviews are saying, it's a killer video editing app.
