Check out the last batch of reviews before the iOS 7 NDA lifts! By Ryan Poolos.
Modular Synthesizer
Modular Synthesizer puts an entire custom synthesizer in your pocket.
Modular Synthesizer has a wide array of modules with a few free in every category and a large store to mix and match from to build your own synthesizer how you want it.
Audiobus and background audio modes bring interactivity with other apps while CoreMIDI allows you to interact with external accessories to control your synthesizer. And ofcourse you can record and export live performance to Soundcloud, Sonoma Audio Copy, email, or iTunes file sharing.

Chompy Chomps
Chompy will help your kids learn the alphabet and over 300 sight words.
Chompy floats along in the ocean looking for letters to chomp. Simply steer him into the right letters to get some points. Avoid the Jellyfish though!
As you learn the alphabet Chompy moves on the words, where you’ll need to be a bit selective about which letters you eat.
This is a great educational game for kids learning their alphabet.
