Downloadable Drum Kit: drive.google.com/drive/folders/14dqPjL7q-FDlRLaiUhi2dzEKJxPHx7fQ COMO HACER UNA PISTA DE TRAP TROPICAL EN ANDROID | JEI PEX - With Downloadable Project File1/17/2019  This is about to get released during 2019 but the developer want to Beta test some more. It has been released on iOS for awhile and got a lot of praise. Have been testing it and like it a lot. It is easy to use but can get complex, intriguing and useful results. It is midi compatible which is great as it is an app that can give unique timbres that is hard to get with traditional synthesis. Had to use a Midi to USB and then connect it to a USB OTG cable on the device used. (If not having an Midi to USB cable and thinking of getting one, please investigate a little bit before buying, there is cheap ones that do not work... Chinese, Ebay, Amazon etc...). The app is a lot of fun at the expense of CPU... So a good device is needed with Android Oreo or later. Think to get an idea of the app take a look at the videos down below... To get into the Beta write the developer here: deltavaudio@gmail.com Website: www.deltavaudio.com/ It will be one of the big releases 2019 for sure. Like this one and got the full version last time it was on sale... The app is for making movements in still photographs and yesterday made the one above it took me all about a minute... Like to send friends and enemies some of these as GIFs through Whatsapp. Can also export in video format so good for incorporating into longer videos... Google Play: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=br.com.zoetropic&referrer=utm_source%3DBlog%26utm_medium%3DApp%26utm_campaign%3Dsale  So as last time this is a collection of updates and some are not so fresh anymore but felt that it is more for people that have not heard about the apps before or that have some interest but have not gotten them yet. RoboVox Voice Changer This has been around for awhile and Mikrosonic is still going strong with an update a year or so. Would say that this is the best voicechanger on Android and it is possible to have a lot of fun using it for recording and manipulating sounds in real time. Can be used in all kinds of creative ways and now the recording time is much longer plus many more effects to the recordings! - Support for latest Android versions - GUI refresh - 8 new voice models added - Recording time extended to 5 minutes Google Play: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mikrosonic.DroidVox Harmonium It is easy to pass on a lot of virtual instruments as they are normally substandard and full of ads, but there is also a lot of good ones specially if they have midi support like this one just got. Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=harmonium.music.gameg.real.harmoniumfree Update: Major Bug Fixes New 6.25 Octaves Harmonium Midi Keyboard Support Low Latency Engine (beta) Scale Changer, Key Names (C D E F... / Sa Re Ga Ma... / Do Re Mi Fa...) Midi Recording (Requires Photos/Media/Files Permission) Added Male / Female Knob for adjusting Bass / Treble according to vocals or various earphones. 7 Pad : Scales and chords Google Play: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mixticstudio.sevenpad Update: Winter Promo until 31/01/2019: Virtuoso scale pack is free when you buy the all in one pack Performance update for midi out over WIFI. Free audio file player for all previous premium buyers: listen to your audio files (.wav.mp3.ogg), while playing the usual sounds of 7Pad. AB loop possible on .wav files. New backing track audio file player : you can select any .wav, .ogg and .mp3 file from your device storage and play along with 7Pad chords and scales ! Could be a drum part, a backing track with all but your instrument or any audio you may like, 7Pad can now play it directly in app. The AB Loop function of the player allow ( only with .wav files ) to repeat any sub part of your audio file. The new Tap Tempo button permit to adjust Tempo bpm for the Song chords reproduction and favorite scales changes to play along. 7Pad Chords velocity can be adjusted for the whole song, by choosing the Slider velocity source in 7Pad Song options parameters. Audio Evolution Mobile: Google Play: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.extreamsd.aemobile * Individual clips can now be renamed. * When using a USB audio interface, the input dialog will be optionally displayed right after creating a new audio track. * 'Virtual keyboard' can now be selected as input for USB MIDI tracks to drive outboard MIDI gear. * Added 'P' and 'E' as alternative to the 'Space bar' key to solve issues with Dex. * Added more keyboard shortcuts (F4 - F8), Ctrl-S for save. * Solved black text issue in drop-down menus. Psychedelic camera and Color Night Vision Camera A friend use the Color Night Vision Camera a lot lately with excellent results (For artistic photo and video work, not so much for the night vision aspect...) and will post about it soon... The Psychadelic Camera is a lot of fun and can be used for video work... Think that it is important to do videos for Youtube of new music being made as it is at least one more way to capture some attention and to have something that can make saomething look more interesting in your pocket easily is always great... The update is maybe not so useful for this but kind of interesting as it the apps now have Virtual Reality mode as well... Google Play: play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=ziro+div Grainstorm Last but not least! The winner of being the first to incorporate Convolution Reverb to an Android app is Grainstorm!!! To engage the convolution reverb the impulse response have to be loaded into one of the four tracks like this: If playing sound on track 1 and want to have the reverb on that sound, first load the ir on track 2, then power on the reverb on track1 and then press the track2 button to load the ir from track2. This makes sense if having the Convolution Reverb page open in the app, promise. As always recommend this app for anyone that likes to experiment with sounds as ther eis a lot of options to be had and there is not anything else like it on Android. Maybe miss that it had possibilities to connect a midi keyboard but as the developer is constantly doing updates who knows it may be there one day soon! Google Play: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.rocks.grainstorm Update: - Convolution based reverb - Bypass switch for all effects - etc.  Do like me some Diamond Dogs and Low once in awhile (and yes love the film "The man who fell to earth" with all of it's blemishes...) but am not a fanatic but it does seem like a must buy for big fans as it seems to be well done and have a lot of fascinating content. If anyone reading this please let us know in the comment section what impression this gave you. Yapps so his virtual ghost birthday was yesterday on the 8th of January so happy birthday to you Bowie wherever you are now! Google Play: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.planeta.BowieMobile “David Bowie is” is a virtual interpretation of the blockbuster exhibition that originated in London’s Victoria and Albert Museum in 2013 and toured the world for five years to record-breaking attendance and international acclaim. This augmented reality exhibition tells the story of Bowie’s life and career through costumes, videos, photography, drawings, storyboards, music scores, handwritten lyrics, letters, and diary entries. It displays over 400 items from the iconic exhibition in a sequence of 25 newly designed virtual exhibition rooms, with many never before seen items. "David Bowie Is...the freakiest show on your smartphone" - The Guardian David Bowie is includes: - 56 Costumes - 38 Songs - 23 Music Videos and live performances - 60 Original lyric sheets and design notes - 50 Photos - 33 Drawings and sketches - 7 Paintings (that’s right, he painted too) Each digitally scanned item can be inspected in astonishing detail at the viewer’s leisure, in their own environment, with no crowds or glass separating them from the intimate artifacts of one of the most influential artists in popular cultural history. "The David Bowie AR app conjures the sense of a present absence" - GQ - Privacy, Safety, and Support - This app requires access to your device's camera and microphone in order to use augmented reality. However, no personal data is recorded or saved, your privacy is 100% guaranteed. As you will need to move around to view the exhibition, please be aware of your surroundings while using the app. - Things to Know - This app uses your phone and battery intensively - you might notice your phone heating up during prolonged use, this is normal. Taking breaks will help reduce this heat buildup. This app also streams a significant amount of data to your phone, so be sure to connect to a strong wifi network if available. Please visit http://davidbowieisreal.com for support.  This had a small journey that have been going on for around two years since first being announced on Kickstarter to later being bought up by a toy company doing robotic starwars toys and other things. So now it is here and have been fascinated by this since seeing it at first. Basically it is rings that can easily learn to read colours that can be used to trigger sounds on a device through bluetooth. It seems to work good and hopefully will get some extra monies to buy a pair and try them out. Was hoping that the price would be lower. My treshold being set to around fifty up to 60... for two of them as one would seem a little bit too limited. Now they are about 65 monies for one and 100 for two. They do look like a lot of fun though and would be great for playing live as it can use colours on anything, like clothes or paintings etc. To see a whole band perform tapping walls would look wonderful! To have a couple of these for a theatre would seem like a must... Here is a short list of what can be done:
What is worth is important to mention as well is that it can be used to trigger other software that allows for Bluetooth midi. It will be fun to see what people will do with this. Also hope to see them used on Android with some different devices to see how they perform. To read more or see more videos go here: www.sphero.com/specdrums
