MuTheremin is an interactive music toy based on the design concept of ‘theremin’. According to the design of ‘theremin’, the pitch and volume could be controlled separately. Multi-touch (max:10) is support.
The following demonstrates MuTheremin iPad App version 1.0. It’s a multi-touch theremin inspired synth and it’s free.
Pros: Free, Multi-Touch,cool lights
Cons: It’s buggy. You will hear clicks and noise. I used an Alesis IO dock for audio. Also tried it though headphones. Same problem.
Can’t believe I didn’t post this a long time ago. This is one of my all time favorite apps. All my friends have it and it is one of those apps that fit the “smart phones make people do dumb things” category =) It’s great for improvising, jammin out with your friends, whaling out a solo, and more. Djs, did I mention it’s also good for creating Dirty Dutch leads, blistering Mord Fustang-esque solos, and pitch ramp build ups? *hint**hint* Good on both iPhone and iPad!
What a great update for this app v 1.8. I didn’t know they cared =)
What’s new:
New sub-oscillator lets you make huge, more complex sounds.
Bebot is no longer affected by your device’s mute/silent settings.
More control over the overdrive distortion effect to provide greater versatility.
User-editable preset file format allows you to organize and share your library of sounds.
12 additional factory presets provide a variety of new sounds and demonstrate new features.
Part robot, Part synth – Bebot is a musical synthesizer with a unique multitouch control method and a versatile sound engine.
Featuring four different synthesis modes, juicy analog-sounding filters, effects and overdrive distortion, Bebot is a feature-packed polyphonic synthesizer, offering a wide range of sounds and a high degree of control via the multitouch screen.
Musicians and non-musicians alike will find that the autotune system and user-programmable scales help you to play in tune with ease. Don’t just listen to your iPod music – play along! Or simply have fun making noises with your fingers, and watch the animated robot sing along.
Bebot has been used both on-stage and in the studio by major recording artists, including Dream Theater and How To Destroy Angels. Not bad for a little cartoon robot!
