If you have a Samsung device, and you are on Lollipop, you may want to check out Soundcamp. I have only toyed with it, hoping it was similar to GarageBand, but latency is certainly something which is addressed.
I have a Google Nexus 10 tablet, made by Samsung, running Lollipop 5.1. It is not compatible with Soundcamp.
One recommendation I would make is to NOT pick a free app. Why? Free apps are either ad-supported or have severely restricted functionality. I don't think you want your Android DAW to be serving ads while you're trying to record. In a try-before-buy situation, not a big problem.
I'd take a look at either the Audio Evolution Mobile DAW or the n-Track Studio Multitrack DAW (

Looking forward to your review of what you finally select. Bon chance!
