Mixtikl 5 arrives with MIDI export and so much more!

 Mixtikl 5 from Intermorphic arrives and what an amazing update it is!

Important: Mixtikl 5 for iOS is for iOS 5+ only. iOS 3.x or iOS 4.x users: If you wish to continue using an earlier version of Mixtikl and cannot update your device to iOS 5, then you should not delete it from your device or from iTunes.

Mixtikl 5 is the 18th FREE Mixtikl update since Mixtikl 2 was released and is yet another big advance for Mixtikl. It is now easier to create new mixes, and you can now also include short messages / poems / haikus in your mixtikls, as well as options on how you want the new visualiser screen to display them. A new kind of track rule means you can create tap-play parts for the visualiser, too. There is much much more, too - see the key changes list below.
