There are several music-making apps for Apple iOS devices (iPads, iPhones, iPod Touch), and drum machines\/virtual drum and percussion programs are certainly among them. I’ve written about a couple on this site:
\nMIDI Step Sequencer For iPad<\/a>, which is about Nord Beat, a traditional type drum machine, and something that is sort of a virtual drum (and guitar) accessory for the iPad, Pix and Stix for iPad Garage Band App<\/a>. These are actually drum sticks that you hit your iPad with. Crazy stuff, but may make drummers feel a bit more like they are playing drums.
\nAnyway, here is a new drum machine for the iPad only (not iPhone or iPod Touch) called Synth Drum Pads, from Paul Betowski. You can create all kinds of rhythm and melodic tones, which seem to be more suited toward the EDM (electronic dance music) genre, but certainly will find use in any music-making kit. Take a listen to an audio sample below:
