Creative Applications on Daisyphone
I remember when this app came out I thought it would be really interesting, but I never got the hang of it at all.
Shame really as it sounds really interesting according to this article at Creative Applications.
More about Android
Having got a couple more sites to try out thanks to reader's comments I was glad to find that there are a few music apps out there for the Android platform.
A brief trawl of these apps tells me that the market isn't as sophisticated as it is for the iPhone at the moment, but nevertheless, it is growing with a significant number of drum apps appearing together with a few sequencers and synths.
So, perhaps the Android marketplace is worth the journey after all?

Children Programme a DS-10
Interesting story via Matrixsynth. I don't know where the workshop took place but I think it is a great way to get children interested in making music.
Technabob talks Touch DJ
Technabob blog has a few details on Touch DJ from Amidio. Not much sadly, but some screen shots.
I can't wait for this app to arrive, let's hope it doesn't take too much longer.
Walkman Mellotron from Little Scale
Little Scale posts on a new project. I love this comment:
So I've got a few cassette walkmans just lying around, doing not much. I decided to build a three-voice sample playback device.
That's not normally what I would have thought, but then I'm very pleased that someone like him does this stuff.
Mixtikl making progress
According to this tweet:
Let's hope we get a launch soon then!
intermorphic Made sumptious generative mix last night on iPod touch during Mixtikl 2 testing. Used randomise on one of the new paks. It's close now, yay!
Let's hope we get a launch soon then!
Martin's top 10 iPhone apps
Another iPhone top 10 apps, today from Martin, and in reverse order:
10. iShred
(almost exactly unlike playing a guitar)
9. RecTools8
(great waveform display and editing, but not as stable as FourTrack)
8. Hexatone
(great random features: both sequencing and loading random samples)
7. DopplerPad
(fast... in fact sometimes too fast, needs an undo latest recorded)
6. Jasuto
(the future of modular software, want this table sized... like ReacTable)
5. NLogSynth
(the sound!)
4. iSample
(simple sampling, very quick and responsive)
3. Oblique Strategies
(yes, I have no creative inspiration, I think from The Box)
2. Voice Memo
(used to grab ideas - in public it just looks like I’m humming to myself while waiting for a call to connect)
1. ClearTune
(may switch to Peterson iStrobeSoft tuner soon, but hey, if it’s broke don’t fix it... or something like that)
Honorable mentions - Tapestri and Curtis.... granular goodness in a jiffy
Interesting set Martin. There'll be another top 10 again soon, if you want to send yours in then just use the standard email address.

Android OS Music apps
It turns out that you can only look at the Android market place using an Android device, which is a bit of a shame if all you want to do is have a poke around and find out what's going on.
So instead I looked around and found a variety of links to Android music apps. This one, although a bit old has quite a few apps in there. Nothing stunning so far, nothing that will rival NLog, or BeatMaker or Hexatone, but the start of some audio applications.
Of course it is difficult to know what's going on without an actual device, so if you know of other stuff happening on Android (or other platforms I don't mention often) then please let me know.
Moogie synth video
Moogie from Lateral View on Vimeo.
I've played with this a little, and noted the comments from people about the sound etc. I still like it, I think the cables make me feel like I've got a DS-10 in my iPhone.
