Garage Band, and DJay are my 2 favorites.
 
Playpad - play the music stave as an instrument

Hi, just thougt I'd mention our 69p ipad app called 'playpad' which we've worked hard on.

It's a simple but effective concept in which you play tunes, chords or whatever you want in treble or bass clef on the musical stave and is great fun if not a little geeky!

Cool for learners and makes reading music more accessible. It'll be available on iPhone soon. http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/playpad/id551346686?mt=8&ign-mpt=uo=2 :)
 
The iPad is clearly the best and cheapest (because of the low price of apps) computer platform for music and sound production! Outstanding with all those sophisticated features like AudioCopy and wireless MIDI (try that with the Android crap).

Very good thread "Apps for musicians" in the MR's sister forum touchArcade:

Check out the last 3-5 pages for the latest news on that topic.

I made a German-language collection (you'll find lots of demo videos and links just click on the headlines):

Music apps

GarageBand is ace,
But I also love Nanostudio, which has much better drum machines and synths.
Not as good for recording audio, but much superior for midi and sampling.
Another app I love is Reactable.
Hard to describe, but essentially a platform of objects that interact with each other. You can make your own samples or download 'tables' of sounds from the community. Lots lots lots of fun.
