 So it is starting... If you missed the news of Audioroute- It is the first open system (there was one earlier but with less support and there is Soundcamp that only works for high end Samsung devices) that allows for connecting audio apps like plug ins. The developers behind nTrack Studio is behind it and so now this drum machine can be used in that DAW. This is of course another reason to get n-Track Studio as the apps adopting Audioroute will be usable in n-Track as a DAW like one for PC/MAC/Linux with virtual instruments and effects. It will be very exciting to see what app will be next... There is a Demo version as well... Google Play: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.elliottgarage.newproject ElliottGarage presents EGDR 808 for Android, a drum machine that emulates the vintage hardware from the 80's. EGDR 808 ha been reviewed as one of the best drum machines on the iOS world, and it's now available for Andorid devices too. Its realistic and clear interface recalls the analog machine from the past, for all the vintage fanatics. You can play with the rythm presets included or you can create your own pattern, and save the audio in the Music folder of your device. Connect it with other Android musical apps and effects using AudioRoute! Features: - Interface like the real drum machine from the 80's - 16 steps sequencer - 12 programmable rythm patterns and 4 fills patterns - Auto fill in every 2, 4, 8, 12 or 16 pattern - Save the pattern you've created and play your songs - Manual Play, Pattern Write and Pattern Clear mode - Drumkit pieces parameters control (tuning, decay and snappy) - Export the groove into your device Music folder - AudioRoute* support Check the videos on http://www.youtube.com/ElliottGarage support: info@elliottgarage.com * AudioRoute Technology by n-Track Made with Wotja and it shows how this would be for a good app for anyone that need a lot of music generated for stores, restaurants, films or for vlogging etc. without having to know composing/producing. Unfortunately you need to get it through Amazons app store if wanting the whole app and not just the demo... Anyway it is also available for Windows and Mac.  Nice app for playing instruments with different expressions for each instrument available using tilt. And very nice being for free and without ads!
It will be nice to see where this will go in the future as it is great as is. Google Play: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.castlewrath.hexpress Hexpress is a collection of musical instruments for your phone. You can use it for learning, playing and composing music whenever you have the time - on train, while waiting in line and during boring meetings. Using headphones is strongly recommended for louder and better sound quality, and to not disturb others around you. The application has simple, colorful and clean interface designed to be accessible to young children. While each instrument behaves differently in some way, in general notes are played by touching shapes on the screen, and sound is shaped by tilting the phone left-right and up-down. Different instruments have different effect controls - fade in, reverb, wah, tremolo... Most of Hexpress instruments have unusual honeycomb note arrangement that's sometimes called "harmonic table note layout". It has many interesting properties compared to standard piano layout: • effective utilization of device screen (3+ octaves range) • note relations (intervals) are uniform across whole range; to transpose song to different key just play same patterns on different part of instrument • most chord shapes are grouped tightly and they can be executed with single finger swipe • in typical scale and melody runs, notes are alternated between fingers of two hands, so they can be played with speed and precision • large intervals are as accessible as smaller intervals Hexpress is without ads, free and open-source. It's also work in progress - interface, sounds and features are all subject to change. The app doesn't collect any information about user and cannot access internet. Storage access permission allows any user to add and modify sounds and other instrument behaviour. Feedback is much appreciated.  There is some solutions on some devices and for some apps but this is huge news as it pertains to 99% of devices and up for grabs for any developer that wants to use it. So maybe next year things will start to move fast forward not only if Oboe starts to get seriously implemented but also if Audioroute gets off the ground!!! So here is some links for getting started etc: github.com/google/oboe github.com/jbloit/AndroidLinkAudio codelabs.developers.google.com/codelabs/musicalgame-using-oboe/index.html#0  Great to have access to these rhythms with tempo adjustable tempo to boot and nice for any percussionist to learn something new.

Drum Pad Beats is aimed at users that want to create rhythms and melodies using pads and step sequencers. With the added ability to export their creations to wav, ogg or midi loops (zip, pcmsynth for Caustic), user ideas can be taken farther in mobile or desktop Digital Audio Workstations. Great for sharing beats/tracks as dpb files and remixing another artist's track, the track could then be remixed again adding even more flavor. Drum Pad Beat's project file contains everything another user needs to take that idea even farther.
