and there is actually some leeway in how close you have to be to the buttons, i.e. its quite forgiving in terms of finger position, you can be a little sloppy (which is a good thing, since there is nothing to feel) and the app will still do what you expect.
Works beautifully, you put it on your leg and tilt the iPad left/right for push/pull, the amount of tilt required is completely adjustable.
That’s true, TunePal requires a network connection to send the audio data to Bryan’s server on the planet Krypton, so if the venue where you have your session doesn’t have WiFi, it won’t work.
Well, it’s at someone’s house; while I don’t know if they have wifi or not I suspect they won’t want to be handing out the password.
It’d be nice if there were an option to download a database locally and have it on hand, or record a snatch to check out later - though maybe it already does that last one, I don’t know.
Just got iTalk last night after seeing it on another’s iPhone. It’s a VERY good recorder for $2 - quality is selectable and fidelity is pretty much perfect. Won’t replace my Zoom H4, but the 'phone is always in my pocket and the Zoom isn’t.
Finally got around to posting a video of my iPad MiditinaXL wireless MIDI English Concertina controller in action, this is of the upcoming version 1.1 that has graphics based on a 1924 Lachenal Edeophone 12-sided instrument:
I just received an iPad …
Concertina XL app was one of the first apps I got. Kudos Michael, that app’s a lot of fun. Since I mostly play stringed instruments, the concertina feels like a strange, alien beast that defies logic, but that doesn’t stop the app from being fun. It appeal to me in the same way that a puzzle does, I guess.
And after reading about it in this thread, I just downloaded Tunepal. Wow. The time that’ll save me, time I might have spent poking ABC phrases into the Advanced search on thesession… very nice. It even seems to work fine even when I flub the tune somewhat.
That looks pretty cool, brotherwind.
Much like the pitch display in Autotune
or Melodyne. I admit I’d get distracted
by the shifting and zooming when going
between octaves (though it’s necessary
for a small screen).
Most of the above +
Recorder Pro
Slow Down Music Player (to slow down Mp3’s I ripped from Michael’s excellent youtube vids which are still too fast for me, )
Question :
I love and use the ABC-explorer a lot on my pc. The side to side of dots, ABC and whistle-tab and being able to edit the ABC is excellent. Does anyone know of an Ios-app which can do the same. I’ve got the tunebook but miss my whistle tabs (I know, I should do without and so on and so on… ).
On my iPhone 4 I’ve been using the app Capo for about four months. It not only allows you to control the speed/tempo of an mp3 file while maintaining true pitch but it also allows you to adjust the pitch without affecting tempo. This make learning new pieces/passages much easier. Check it out.
