Recommended Posts

Cleartune-the best tuner I've used on the iphone, I use it very often

Tempo-insanely great metronome, does more than a $30 Korg for a dollar

Noise.io-fun synth, lots of options

synthpond-fun synth, the sound is in visual waves that trigger each other

Jam: vol 1 & 2- 5 jazz standards on each by a fantastic quartet with adjustable mixes, you can even cut out certain parts.

Pandora-interactive radio anywhere you get 3g, I cruize with this on.

My new iPhone 3G S should arrive tomorrow - please tell me about any music oriented apps you've found that are worth checking out.

 

 

If you own a guitar or bass (or any tunable instrument actually..!) then thou shalt own GuitarToolkit..

Has anyone heard of an app called Shazam? I think that's the name. IIRC, you can hold your iPhone up to a speaker and it will identify the song that's playing. I thought that sounded both useful and clever...

 

 

Yep. Shazam is very cool.

 

I sort of prefer Midomi as a tool though (experiment with their accuracy). You can sing in to it and it tries to work out the song your singing, then takes you to their discography etc etc..

Wow... awesome. How long does it take for it to identify the song?


I think an iPhone is quite likely in my future.
:lol:

 

As I mentioned Lee. Check out Midomi as well. More WoW than Shazam although maybe not so accurate. Oh and they are both freebies.. :D

I e-mailed BLUE and they confirmed that this works with the iphone 3G to make it a field recorder for $79:


 

 

Hell yeah it works. With the iPod touch too. I just recorded a blues concert in a local park. It has three sensitivity settings and I had it too sensitive so it clipped whenever they hit the bass drum but otherwise the sound was excellent.

IK Multimedia is out with a new app that allows you to use their GrooveMaker on iPhone or iPod Touch.... I ran through it very quickly and posted a sort of quick preview on my blog:

I am planning on reviewing the app and the loop packs after I get a real chance to play with them...
