iPhone app spree


Sadly this is not open to UK residents, or anyone outside the US which is a shame, but if you are in the US it sounds like it is really worth entering as it is free.

Ellatron Remote Visualizer



The makers of Ellatron have come up with another excellent idea.
Now this is *COOL* - doubleplusgood as we used to say in the 1980s - a program that runs on the Mac, connects up to a running copy of Ellatron on your iPhone/iTouch, and displays Ellatron - all keypresses, all controls, all changes to the display - so that you can project it on stage, and show the 100,000 at Wembley Stadium that you really are playing an instrument, not just doubled up and pulling faces trying to get through level 14 of Rolando while a backing track plays ...

TonePad: Tenori-on app for iPhone


Another tenori-on type app for the iPhone. Synthtopia has all the details. I've sort of lost the plot with lots of these type apps.

Why no SDK for the iPod

It may sound like a daft question, but why is it that there isn't an SDK for the iPod? Surely Apple could make even more money if they opened up the development of iPod apps and games to a bigger development community?

Just a thought.

Listening to Holger

I was listening to Holger this morning and thought I might have a go at making a groove like some of the tracks on good morning story.

I used Mixtikl for this as I always know that I can come up with something quick using this app. That's what I really likeabout Mixtikl, just how immediate it is. I'm really looking forward tohaving it on my iPhone too.

Stylophone Beatbox update

There was an anonymous comment on a post I made back in March about the stylophone beatbox.

The comment states:
This is a very first prototype of the new Stylophone Beatbox. So this video is very premature. I've seen the latest prototype and it's got a lot of promise. the record loop function is going to be brilliant !!!

I'd love to know more about the device, so if the anon commenter is reading then please keep us posted with what's going on.

Will there ever be on board languages for the iPhone?

I was thinking about iziBasic the other day and missing having the ability to start tinkering around with some code on my old Treo 650 and being able to build an app right there and then.

To be fair I never got around to making anything earth changing on the palm, but there were a bunch of languages like iziBasic, PocketC and onBoard C that have been around for a long time and have a good community of users.

I don't know if this sort of stuff will continue on Palm's 'classic' environment, but I just can't see it happening on the iPhone somehow, although I think it would be great even in a sandboxed kind of a way.

Palm Pre launch set

According to the PalmInfocenter the Pre will launch on the 6th of June at a price of $199 after $100 mail in rebate. This is just before WWDC of course.

Is that a good price? I don't know, not for a mobile music device anyway.

What future for Portals?

With all the big OS providers starting their own app stores what will happen to the likes of palmgear and pocketgear etc. Will there still be a space in the market for them, and will developers still want to submit their apps there?

I'd be interested to know any developer views on this.

iSyn 1.1 issues


There have been comments on the latest version of iSyn about crashes and other issues. I was using it last night and it crashed several times on me and I lost a whole track / project I was making. Anyone else having issues with this version?

Thoughts on latest Bebot


I was playing with the latest version of Bebot yesterday. I love the new save presets function, it makes a big difference, but I'd still like to see a save performance type option. It'd be great to save some of those musings with this app.

Anyway, excellent update.
