I know I’m a little late to the party on this one but I wanted to make sure the news was official from IK Multimedia before I jumped the gun on this one. We all know I’m pretty impressed with the iPad. That’s a given. So any app or accessory that makes my life easier is greatly appreciated, and the folks at IK Multimedia never disappoint. Here we have the iKlip. This lets you clip your iPad to a mic stand that can be used with apps such as THIS and especially THIS… and maybe even THIS… ok well maybe not as much that but still… This seems perfect even for the non-musician. Even though its made for a mic stand, I’m sure you could mount it somewhere else too with a little thought and ingenuity. Just don’t get too crazy with it.
