AirTurn Wireless Bluetooth Sheet Music Page Turner For iPad

AirTurn Wireless Page Turner

Video says prototype but this product is currently available. I saw it at Winter NAMM 2011. Very nice.

In many ways, the iPad is a terrific device for reading music, thanks to its slick design, light weight, and excellent battery life. However, one drawback has been the fact that you still need to use a finger to touch or swipe the screen to “turn” pages, which can be a distraction for musicians who need both hands to play their instruments.

At AirTurn, we’re developing a Bluetooth version of our wireless, hands free automatic page turner that will be compatible with computers equipped with Bluetooth, including the iPad. You’ll be able to turn pages by tapping a footswitch to turn pages forwards, and another one for turning pages backwards. Expected availability of the Bluetooth AirTurn is Q4 2010.

Griffin iPad Mount

Griffin’s Mic Stand Mount for iPad screws onto a standard microphone stand (5/8″ with 27 threads/inch for those of you playing along at home) so you can raise or lower your iPad to the perfect height. It also slips into most standard mic clips.

Rubber-lined grips at the ends of the Mic Stand Mount’s four arms hold your iPad securely on all four corners without blocking the controls, dock connector or audio jack. The mount rotates and locks into either portrait or landscape view, and tilts up to 90 degrees. The grips accommodate most shell- and skin-type cases for iPad.

The Mic Stand Mount for iPad: the most secure way to mount your iPad in the studio (at least until your entourage grows to include “Dude Who Holds My iPad Like a Music Stand”).

VocaLive iPad App

Technically announced at CES, the IK Multimedia iRig Mic was, nonetheless, a point of interest at the recent Winter NAMM 2011, and yet another example of how the iPad is blurring the line between consumer and professional recording gear. As the first true condenser mic for the iPad, the iRig mic lets you add clear, usable vocals to demos generated by otherwise in-the-box apps (like AmpliTube or GrooveMaker, mayhaps?).

The IK MultiMedia iRig Mic features an electric element, so even though it’s a condenser it won’t sap power from your iPad’s battery. It also includes the new IK MultiMedia VocaLive app, a vocal utility kit featuring effects and a multitrack
