Laught Synth iPhone App

Not just for laughs. We decided to post about this fun and quirky Laugh Synth app. Don’t let the name of this app fool you. It’s actually a sampling app that will allow you to sample any sound and alter the pitch in real-time. Comes with preset laugh samples though. It’s FREE.

Laugh anywhere, with the voice of your choice! The first “bwahaha” and “hehehe” synthesizer in the world, Laugh Synth is the key to the universe of shining emotions and eternal happiness. The ultimate sonic nectar emitter for everyday life enrichment is finally here!

Created for you by a team of qualified agriculturists at our laugh institute, this little machine has enough brainpower to produce nearly every possible kind of laughter. Show your evident superiority and play a smashing laugh symphony on your friend’s nerves!

The 25 built-in presets provide an immense amount of lulz, and you are welcome to sample your own voice and turn it into a beautiful melody of high-pitched vowels interluded with sarcastic bass notes. The results are spot-on, a synthesized laugh has never sounded so funny!

The characteristics of the laughs are controlled easily by the position of the finger, but it’s possible to go deeper and fine-tune the 4 possible effects and even adjust the laugh pitch parameters. Moreover, your passages can be easily recorded and shared via Twitter, Facebook, email or any of your preferred methods.

Now we’ll leave you wondering why such a wonderful creation hasn’t been invented until today.

Serato Scratch Live iPad Controller
Author View comments Tags Tags: , , , ,

Midi-To Serato Scratch Live iPad Controller

MiDi-to is a wireless DJ MiDi controller designed for Serato Scratch Live™. It is the first iPad MiDi controller designed for Serato that does not need any additional software to work. MiDi-to takes advantage of Core MIDI framework which minimizes setup and latency.

Our philosophy is to bring back the DJ’s attention to their DJ set instead of their computer.

MiDi-to is designed by DJs for DJs with ease of use and ergonomics as priorities. It is a performance tool that empowers Serato users to control Cue points, FXs, Loops and track selection directly on the iPad. We tried to create a layout that is uncluttered and functional.

MiDi-to’s features are divided into 3 practical views.

MAIN VIEW:

Trigger Cue points
Trigger Samples
Use your “Ultra Knob” FX and all the latest presets
Set manual loops
Set auto-loops on the fly
Loop Roll by using only one finger
Reverse or “censor” the playing track
Change playback mode between Absolute, Relative and Internal quickly in emergencies (cleaning your needle for example)

FX VIEW:

Control your FX in “Super Knob Mode” for each deck.
In this view you can have up to 3 simultaneous FXs per deck.
All the latest Serato FX presets are included for quick and precise manipulation via ergonomic virtual faders.
Change the rhythm of the FX on the fly.

LIBRARY VIEW:

Navigate through your Crates and tracks directly from your iPad
Assign a song to the desired deck and play it!

The MiDi-to equipped iPad can be seamlessly integrated into a DJ setup providing a more hands-on approach to Serato’s features while enabling the DJ to perform in novel ways.

MiDi-to’s ambition is to become the platform for combining Turntablist and Controllerist performance techniques, for the next step in DJing.

MIDI-TO REQUIRES SERATO SCRATCH LIVE™ SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE CONNECTED TO A WI-FI EQUIPPED MAC. IT HAS BEEN TESTED AND OPTIMIZED FOR THE SL1 INTERFACE.

PLEASE NOTE: This version of MiDi-to is compatible with Snow Leopard and Leopard and Serato version 2.2.0. We do not yet support Mac OS X Lion or any newer versions of Serato. When Serato will be working well on Lion we will update MiDi-to if needed.

NO ADDITIONAL SOFTWARE NEEDED FOR SETUP.
WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU DOWNLOAD OUR OPTIMIZED SERATO MIDI MAPPING PRESET FROM OUR WEBSITE FOR A QUICK AND EASY SETUP.

You just need to connect the iPad to your computer via Wi-Fi.

Midi-to is available for $7.99
