iDelirium Voice App For iPhone and iPad

★iDELIRIUM, REMIX YOURSELF!★

Many instruments existed on earth since long time, the guitar, the piano, the drums and many others, and then iDELIRIUM arrived…

iDELIRIUM is a system of sound communication whose discovery has been made by two archeologists at the end of ’30s.

In 1938 two archeologist brothers discovered in Cerreto Guidi (Tuscany, Italy) four caves disposed in a triangular shape that were connected by a larger rectangular space. In the center of this area, there were laying giants monoliths made of an unknown metallic material. Some researchers made the hypothesis that this creation was made by Leonardo Da Vinci himself because of the vicinity with his hometown.

In 1979 the German archeologist Fredrick Schulz made further examinations of the site. He took a sample of this metal and sent it to a lab in Germany in order to get a precise date for the object. The results of C-14 tests were shocking, since they attributed the creation of the object to 5000 b.c. . The scientific community did not accept such a discovery and Dr. Schulz lost all his credibility to the point that he was forced to stop his research activity. In August 2011 the son of Dr Schulz, thanks to the generosity of an American millionaire believing in the existence of E.T. life, got new funds to continue his father’s research. In an evening of August while he was inspecting the caves he discovered an astonishing interaction between the feet pressure on the metal monoliths and his own voice propagation in the caves. By positioning his feet in well-determined positions he could control in an accurate way the echo of his voice on the rocks. The scientific community finally recognized the existence in this place of a communication sound system technically really advanced whose functioning and origin are still completely unknown.

iDELIRIUM is an app that reproduces in the most accurate possible way this incredible discovery. iDELIRIUM is a delirating alien instrument that allows to register and playback your own voice together with electronic sound effects and allucinating combinations of visual effects. The interface, that at first glance looks cryptic, it is in reality extremely easy-to-use.

The main features of the app are:

✔ Record/play your own voice together with preregistered electronic sounds by tapping colored buttons
✔ Start music loops at different speeds
✔ Handle the pitch and volume control of each sound
✔ Drum machine mode
✔ The creation of a rhythm is visually associated an hypnotic movement of colored squares.

Stay tuned and LISTEN TO YOURSELF!

SoundZen HD For iPad
Author View comments Tags Tags: , , , ,

SoundZen Icon

This popular iPhone app is now available for the iPad.

SoundZen is a new concept for music. It allows you to generate constantly evolving and changing music with no effort at all.

SoundZen uses a form of cellular logic to determine how your song evolves over time. It follows 2 simple principles:

1. When an arrow touches the edge of the grid, play a note.
2. If arrows collide they must turn 90 degrees for each arrow they collide with

You set up the app by touching any of the positions on the grid, touch it again to change direction and press play. Using the principles above, SoundZen will take you on a zen-like journey based on the input you gave. Sit back, relax and watch as your song changes right in front of you.

You can also save/load your songs and purchase new sounds from the store. After buying a new instrument you can change it by pressing the arrows above the instrument image.

SoundZen HD is available for $2.99

Improvox For iPad

ImproVox is like Autotune for the iPad but it is much more than that. It’s also a vocal instrument. Real-time pitch correction and harmonization enable you to create lush harmonies as you sing – and always sound in tune! Add vibrant textures with effects like reverb, echo, and flanger, record your performance and share it with friends.

With new overdub and sharing features, it’s possible to collaborate with people from all over the world. Download tracks from other ImproVox users with SoundCloud and overdub your own parts, or take your favorite song from your iTunes library, and sing along.

Harmonies and effects are controlled via two large touch pads. Changing the sound of your voice is as easy as moving your fingers across the screen, and you don’t need to know any music theory. Because effect and harmony characteristics can be changed while you sing, the sonic possibilities are endless. Create reverberant rock hits and cavernous choral compositions, or just speak into the mic and transform your voice using abstract effects.

Never before have so many powerful features been bundled into one easy-to-use App. With state-of-the-art audio processing and a sophisticated yet intuitive feature set, it’s both easy to enjoy and a challenge to master. Controls are simple and immediately gratifying, while recording and sharing is easy and straightforward. With 5 unique harmony styles and 8 different effects to choose from, you can make your music as simple or complex as you choose. All it takes is the desire to explore — and create.

Features Include:
-Real-time vocal pitch correction
-Real-time 4-part harmonization in varying styles (Choral, Pop, Barbershop, Jazz, Baroque)
-Customizable key and scale selection (with a voice-controlled key selector)
-Traditional effects – reverb, echo, stutter, and cavern
-Abstract effects – ring modulator, bit crusher, flanger, and auto-wah
-Change and mix any harmony style and effect while you sing
-Shake the device to set echo times
-Recording capabilities with .m4a and .wav file-saving
-Overdub function allows you to layer your recordings with multiple performances
-Sharing capabilities via the device’s email client, SoundCloud, and iTunes document sharing.
