This top music studio app for iPhone definitely receives a very strong recommendation from me. Keep reading our Music Studio app review to see why.

Music Studio is the kind of iPhone and iPad app I wish I’d find a while back while I was still tinkering with some of the more, shall we say, temperamental free apps within the genre. This recording studio app delivers on all fronts and is a valuable asset to any recording musician.
