Sunvox is completely awesome of course, but when you realise how many devices it runs on, you just have to wonder how it can be this good everywhere.
Tag: iOS
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.
So it looks like I’m moving to iOS8 today
My iPhone 6 is due for delivery today. So it looks like I’ll move to iOS8 by default. I’m still resisting moving on my iPad Mini, but for my iPhone I think I have no choice. I’ll be letting you know about how I get on and what works and what doesn’t. In some ways I’ll miss my iPhone 5. It’s done well over the last two years even though it does have a defective battery which needs changing.
The two main things I’m looking forward to are having more space as I’m moving from 32 to 64gb, and having a phone where the battery doesn’t deplete in around 2 hours!
Let’s see how that works out. More later.

Looking back at my sounds: Vertigo
A track made on my iPhone 3G using iSequence, JR Hexatone Pro, Noise IO Pro, Star Guitar, Star Piano, Star Melody and Beatmaker to pull all the samples together.
It isn’t a very complex track, I was just experimenting with putting loops together from lots of different apps.
SoundLab Digital Band at the RFH Tunnel of Love
Using two Thereminis, a Microsoft Kinnect, two iPads and Ableton Live in the middle of everything we made some lovely noises in the Tunnel of Love in July.
ThereMIDI for the Theremini
I’ve got onto the beta test list for this app for accessing all the MIDI parameters of the Moog Theremini, which is a really exciting prospect.

This was a great event and the public reaction to it was fantastic.
This is why Loop Producer was so great
When you watch this you may (or may not) agree that this was actually pretty far ahead of it’s time for what it was trying to achieve. I love the fact that you can replay whole performances and just watch what you did.
Thinking about Ototo and MIDI
After a little while of playing with the Ototo and enjoying what it can do I now want to attach it to some gear to play with it via MIDI. So my next experiments will be using Ototo to drive apps and other devices over MIDI and we’ll see where that takes me.
New music from me: Sectorism
I recorded a loop from Figure and put it into Sector. I linked the MIDI clock with Effectrix and this is what happened.
