Now there's a clever looking app! Play synths by singing into your iPhone/iPod Touch!
Voice Control is a wireless MIDI controller that converts the pitch of your voice into signals for controlling MIDI devices networked to your computer.
HOW TO USE:
- Download a wireless MIDI interface such as DSMidiWifi (http://dsmi.tobw.net) and install on your computer.
- Launch Voice Control on your iPhone or iPod Touch.
- Connect your device’s MIDI stream to the synthesizers you want to control. For example, on a Mac use Audio MIDI Setup to connect your iPhone/iPod Touch to Garage Band or other MIDI units networked to your computer.
- Start singing. You can even harmonize with others on the same wireless network using two or more Voice Control apps.
- Select your vocal range – from bass to soprano (center picker wheel)
- Shift the pitch of converted MIDI signals up or down (right picker wheel)
- Display the note you are currently singing (left picker wheel)
- Sliders let you change the input audio level and the amount of pitch “smoothing”
- Tap “Set Up” to switch to the “Control” screen
- Control the volume and expression in real time using the x-y control pad while you sing
- Rotate the device to pan the sound left to right

Anyone already tried this one? Seems interesting IF it works as expected, I'm a little tired of non working good ideas. I'll gladly buy it if it delivers though.
Interesting. This is something I asked for in VoiceBand, which has pretty good pitch and volume detection. Any videos of this app in action?
I'll probably give this a go if they implement CoreMIDI too so I can hook it up to my external gear without needing a PC.
So i could beat box and it would control my drums??
If it works I would be very interested, but it only works on iPhone 4! Still on a 3G here!
