someone who's doing some things
I’m a big fan of mobile applications. It started with the Palm OS and Windows Mobile, and has continued with iOS and Android. Who knows where mobile apps will go to next, it’s a journey, and an interesting one at that. If you’re looking for more on mobile apps then also check out the menu sections for pages on specific apps and things I’ve done with them.
I really liked this post from Intermorphic about what they’ve been doing this year and what they have planned for 2016. I’ve been a fan of theirs for many years now. In fact, probably approaching 10 years now. I’ve seen them go through several iterations and still keep going. I hope that they keep flying the flag for generative music for many years to come.
Good luck guys.
For me this was a great thing. Setting up the Handera 330 and the bC-16 together. That was so cool. Using apps like Theremini and BeatPad and Hedghog.
This post over at PalmSounds is all about my favourite apps, or rather, favourite music apps anyway, that I’ve been using this year. There’s 24 in my list and it was pretty hard to keep it to 24 too.
Which is a real shame in my view. I mean, I understand that it isn’t always easy to give users what they want, but this is a feature that I think would make this app so much better, so much more usable. So why not add it? I’m not sure I understand this at all.
I might even have to find myself another calculator app that does what I want it to do. I’d rather not, but what else can I do?
These guys are pretty amazing actually. I’ve been following their NOiZE app for a long time now and it’s nearly ready for prime time. I’m glad to have been a part of the journey that they’ve been on and I’m pleased that they were able to be SoundLab’s Play Space event at NESTA last month.
Ed from LoopTree (Coding Cod) was an absolute star at the Play Space and helped lots of people get to grips with looping where they’d never done it before. I liked this photo a lot as it also has Mark from Heart n Soul in it.
It’s interesting to see how a bookmarking app can evolve over time. Now it seems to be becoming a social network in its own right. All the usual things are there, like following and followers, sharing and liking etc. As a matter of fact I don’t think it is a bad implementation at all. I like the way they’ve done it. Time will tell if it works out or not. So far, I think it’s ok. Good start.
I do love the old DS-10. I’ve had the DS version, and now, the iOS version. It’s all pretty cool. Amazing that we’ve come so far and yet mobile music goes on and changes and matures.
The latest version of the DS-10, the iDS-10 is pretty awesome. I’m just getting to grips with it, but so far I’m really enjoying it a lot.
It’s been such a long time that I’m beginning to question whether I heard it correctly or rather read it correctly. But I’m sure I did. I’m sure that Pebble said that that was something that they were working on ages ago, but so far, it hasn’t arrived unless I’ve missed it. What would I use it for? I don’t know to be honest, maybe nothing at all in the end, but I’d like to have the chance to play around with it.
I’ve posted on this before, but here’s a little reminder. This event will be completely amazing, or at least I hope so anyway. It’s starting to shape up now and really come together. So I plan to be posting a few more details about the event quite soon and show some of the things I’m going to do be doing and showing there, and some of the amazing people who’ll be there.
If you’re interested in attending or being a part of it in some way, then take a look at this page on the SoundLab web site.
