New Major Release: Save it, midi!!!

Finally TiltOPhone can Save your last jamming session.

Play -> jamming -> Pause -> Save, will store the sounds you made in the generic music storage of your device.

Using your Devices Music Player, you will find it as a tune under Artist: TiltOPhone, or by Album: TiltOPhone.

The files will be called "top_NNNNNNN.mid". Where NNNNN is a uniqe number for all your recordings.

If you do not want to save, just skip from Pause to Play to start a new recording.


And finally, Yes the file is a MIDI file. It can be extracted from the device and further edited in midi capable editors/players. Brilliant, isn't it?

Ny Minor Release: Improved memory.

Finally a basic feature of an Android app. Your settings are now remembered from one jamming session to another.

Settings of Scale, Tempo and Instrument are affected.

Ny Release: Support for Froyo, Android 2.2

Now I have tested the TiltOPhone for Froyo/2.2. It worked like a charm.

New feature: Select sound

Finally TiltOPhone have the possibility to exchange the guitar sound for some others, including : Piano,  Xylophone, Rock Organ, Violin, Synthesized Oohs, Trumpet and finally Guitar.

At any time it is possible to change sound/instrument. The change takes some time. It will shut up for a bit, but carry on playing when the new sound is loaded.

Go ahead and try it out!

Controlling the Tempo.

Do you like slow soothing songs or fast dance beats. Now you can do both with your TiltOPhone.

Simply select the BPM of your dreams, at any time with the Tempo Spinner.

Controlling the length of notes.

Now you can also control the length of each note you play with your TiltOPhone by rotating it to the left or right. At one extreme rotation, it shuts up. A Pause! Just turn it back to an angle for the length you want.

Combining the Tilt for note height with rotation for length is a challenge at first, isn't it???

The Known Issues Post.

The post listing known problems with TiltOPhone:

• Fixed: Sometimes when pressing the Pause button, it will not shut up.
  Temporary fix, press Play and then Pause.

A possibility to tune your Tune!

Now you can select any Major scale, to use in your TiltOPhone creation. A menu is always available. It is on top of the Play/Pause buttons. You can change scale at any point. Even in the middle of playing.

Does anybody need them Minor keys???

Soon the first release of TiltOPhone will be released for Android.

TiltOPhone, the App turning your phone into a musical instrument.

The first release will only be a taste of what is to come. You can play along with it, and get a feel for what you can do with it later. In time more features will be added.

Play is about all it does at the moment. After pushing the Play-button, it starts playing quarter-notes. The pitch is controlled by tilting the phone. Start moving about and hear the music!

A whish-list for features to come includes, more/different sounds, tunings/scales, recording-and-playback, score file saving to ???, improved performance, and more to come...

The first release is free, but has commercials.

Enjoy!
