"Groove Rider 2 has completely replaced my laptop for live sets. The integration with my Launchpad Pro is seamless, and the clip-launching workflow feels much more intuitive than any desktop DAW I've used. It's the perfect bridge between a classic hardware groovebox and a professional studio tool."

"The depth of this app is incredible. I can sketch out complex ideas using the internal wavetable synths or host my favorite AUv3 units, then export stems directly to my studio for the final mix. It's the most powerful mobile production environment I've ever used—truly a monster of an app."
