someone who's doing some things
Apple’s mobile OS. I find that I use iOS (on the iPad and iPhone) for a lot of things these days, mainly because it’s just so useful.
Now I’ve got the excellent Microbe running under StyleTap on my old iPhone 3G. Of course, the original version of Microbe was built to run on a much less powerful device, so in theory it should do quite well. Next I need to get the big one up and running.
Bhajis Loops.
I do like iShred LIVE! And the other day I got it working with GuitarJack 2. I like iShred LIVE! because some of the effects in it are quite unusual and aren’t what you find in other effects simulations.
The upshot is I’ve ended up buying loads of in-app purchase units on apps all over the place. I’m sure it’ll be worth it though.
To say that Mixtikl is a music app with a great deal of depth would be a massive understatement. Most recently I’ve been getting into the sound design capabilities of Mixtikl. You’d think that this might be difficult on an iPhone. But it isn’t. In fact, once you’ve got the hang of it, the sound design screens are actually quite easy to work with.
What you can achieve with Mixtikl is actually amazing, and the more I do with it, the more I realise that it can do.
I’ve been meaning to do this for a while now although I’d wanted to use my iPad 2, but it seems now that it won’t be usable as an input device for some reason. Anyway, I used the GuitarJack in my iPhone 4 and it works very well. Using it with GuitarTone is good too, which I wasn’t expecting as what I wanted to achieve was a non-guitar like sound. I got close enough.
As for as iOS goes it is amazing for music making apps. That’s a given. So I thought I’d share my music home screen.
I started on some new stuff in Jasuto Pro today, taking a sample made up in RealBeat and using it as a basis for a scene or patch or whatever it’s called in Jasuto. I do love the app, it has so many possibilities.
Getting some music software running on my Jailbroken 3G. Not sounding great so far, but let’s see how it goes. More soon.
