Udu Drum For iPad

Udu Drum For iPad

Udu Drum brings some of the rich tones of the Nigerian udu to iOS devices.

-Best with headphones or plugged into a stereo or speaker system.

Udu means “vessel” in the native language of the Igbo people of Nigeria, where the drum originated. Typically made from clay, the drum is played by hand. It is a wonderfully expressive instrument, producing a wide variety of tones and pitches ranging from deep bass to crisp highs and everything in between.

Look up “udu” and “igbo” online, youtube, etc. and you will find a wealth of incredible musicians and history!

****NOTE – If you cannot get sound from Udu Drum, PLEASE UNMUTE your device!!! If your device is MUTED, or your volume is set to ZERO, you will not hear any sound!****

iUdu Drum is available for free for a limited time.

Curtis Granular Synth For iPad

Curtis Granular Synth For iPad

One thing I try to do here on iPadLoops is to post some of the best apps. No filler. I own this app and I friggin love it by the way. =)

Curtis uses an unusual hybrid of wavetable and granular synthesis to create tones and timbres quite apart from the standard FM or subtractive synthesis fare. Add this app to your arsenal to create sounds you simply cannot squeeze out of any other synth, no matter how much you’ve twiddled its knobs.

Granular synthesis works by combining many tiny grains of sound from an existing recording, creating new sounds with the texture of the original, now with endless temporal possibilities. Play the sound forward, backward, or even at a single point!

Unlike scratching a record, pitch doesn’t depend on how quickly you move through the recording. Try with spoken word, singing, synths. Mangle your recordings or create soft, gentle textures! If scratching is your thing, Curtis now also includes a scratch mode, letting you shred your recordings turntablist style.

✇ Curtis now comes preloaded with an exclusive sound set created by sound design pioneer Richard Devine!

✇ This release allows you to record audio directly with your iPad or add your own WAV or MP3 files via iTunes. No more in-app server setup; just drag-and-drop!

✇ New in version 2.0, a chromatic quantize mode, which rounds grain sizes to match the frequencies of standard equal-tempered tuning. In this mode, Curtis will sound in tune with your other MIDI instruments or soft-synths. Of course, the old geometric mode is still available for your dissonant pleasure.

✇ Version 2.1 brings a traditional keyboard along with new XY pads for pitch and position LFO control. Still, this is no ordinary synthesizer, and the keyboard will not always work as you might expect. The keyboard note pressed determines the size of the grains used, so the sound will indeed have the cycle length of the given note, however depending on the pitch and the content of the source recording at the current point, the resulting tonality may vary greatly.

✇ Version 2.2, by popular demand, adds the ability to record your Curtis performance. You can still record SOURCE material via the old record button hidden under its safety slider. Now however, you can tap the pink record button to start recording your performance. Save your work as a .WAV file and grab it from iTunes to drop into any DAW.

Curtis for iPad is available for $9.99

★ Reviews ★

“This is a great app. Experienced musicians and laypeople alike can enjoy their music within seconds.” – AppAdvice.com

“Another bold step forward in iPad musical devices, which turns networks of nodes into bumping beats.” – Belinda Lanks – Fast Company’s Co.Design

“Relaxing and Fun. If you’re the sort who enjoys playing with meditative toys like tabletop Zen sand gardens, you’ll probably enjoy this relaxing and visually appealing sound app.” – Gianna LaPin – 148apps.com

“More than anything, it’ll be a calming oasis in the chaos that is a typical day in a modern city. If it all gets too much, as it inevitably does, just plug in your earphones and sculpt some sounds by moving around the nodes on the screen, simply making music and letting the ambient chimes wash over you. Until your boss tells you to stop messing around and get back to work, that is.” – Kevin Holmes – thecreatorsproject.com

“If you like generative, reactive or ambient music- Nodebeat HD is a vital addition to your app collection. It is easily on par with the likes of Bloom,Slewpi,Aura flux, Curtis, Reactable and the rest and is super user-friendly…You can get lost in this ambient world for hours if you are just into playing at home, but if you are part of the new wave of live performers that are using iOS devices for live performances then you too should grab this app! You will astound your audience with mesmerizing spaced out grooves like never before!” – Zac Laurent – www.evolutionarymusic.org

“Addictive – Like a Deep House or Techno version of Brian Eno’s Bloom and Trope apps. Uptempo ambient for headphones at work. Kids love it, too. One of the best generative music apps I’ve found.” – Top Review

NodeBeat is available for $1.99
