pianoscaper

If you have zero musical ability and just want to play around with dreamy ambient soundscapes, this is an app for you. If you want control over things like sounds or chords or key, then you should just graduate to the sequel to this app called Touchscaper.

A very simple app to use that provides beautifully relaxing soundscapes with piano at its heart. My only wish is that there was a bit more piano, but I'm very pleased with it otherwise and the price is less than a stop at Starbuck's. Mr. Jackson's other app, Moodscaper, is brilliant too!

Playback may be different every time, but with the same limited sound set and very little melodic possibility, it quickly becomes very repetitive. Very very limited in what you can do in terms of shaping the sound, pretty much just playing back a set of samples. Not a sound creation tool; more like an ambient sample pack with randomised playback. Sounds like '80s-'90s Hearts of Space music, if that's your thing.

Plug your device into a stereo system and turn up the volume to really appreciate the sound quality of this app! The samples are beautiful! Pianoscaper is perfect for improvising over! For the reviewer who received the wrong app from the App Store, I'm certain it wasn't the developer's error and so to penalize him with a one star rating is unfair. And for the reviewer who criticizes this app because it sounds like Hearts of Space... that's the whole point - generative, ambient music! I lov

...along with the other two apps that Rob makes. I have the full version of moodscaper but for the ease of changing sounds I picked up this one as well. I simply open another app and there it is. This app has so much mood to it that it inspires me to record and then layer. Sometimes I layer more from this app, sometimes from others. Even adding guitar to it. It's just a homerun app. Knocked it out of the park.
