Free Karl Bartos (ex Kraftwerk) iPhone app available
Karl Bartos (ex-Kraftwerk) and Masayuki Akamatsu (media artist and author of various iPhone apps such as Banner, Oscillator, Echochops) have created an iPhone app, ‘The Mini-Composer’, which is actually a 16-step music sequencer (you can get it for free right here). Executive producer for the app is Jean-Marc Lederman (The Weatherman + partner in Sushi crime in Brussels with our chief editor Bernard Van Isacker).
In a reaction Karl Bartos says: “We have created this simple music app for fun: it implements the basic waves of a synthesizer with a 16-step sequencer. This app is totally free of charge but we would be very glad if, as a relief to people’s suffering following the earthquake and tsunami, you would consider a donation to lend a helping hand to Japan. Please enjoy our music and think Japan.”
The application has the following functions:
- 16 steps sequencer
- Start/stop sequence
- Multi-touch note input
- 32 polyphonic tones + 1 drum track
- 4 waves (saw, triangular, square, sine)
- 4 drumbeat loops
- Drums on/off
- Random notes
- Clear notes
- Additional information
