eXtream Software Development has released Audio Evolution Mobile 4, a major update to its Android DAW.

Version 4 contains many enhancements in the MIDI/instrument area including a drum pattern editor and easier workflow for working with instruments.

To offer a wide range of quality instruments, eXtream Software Development partnered with Digital Sound Factory to license original sounds from several E-MU rack synthesizers (Orbit, Planet Phatt, Xtreme Lead), the Native Instruments Kontakt Keyboards collection and 5 professionally recorded drum kits. These are available as in-app purchases.

Changes in Audio Evolution Mobile 4

  • Drum pattern editor: create drum tracks with ease.
  • New instrument selection screen with pre-listen facility: tap on an instrument to hear it or play your USB MIDI keyboard while changing between sounds.
  • Instrument selection screen now also features an option to purchase new soundfont packs: we have officially licensed instruments from Digital Sound Factory, including original sounds from several E-MU rack synthesizers like the Orbit, Planet Phatt and Xtreme Lead and from the Native Instruments Kontakt Keyboards collection. We also have 5 professionally sampled drum kits for different music styles (jazz, funk, rock, etc.).
  • Soundfonts use a lot less memory: only the data from used presets are loaded into memory.
  • New status screen showing connection status of USB audio and MIDI devices graphically.
  • Instrument tracks now feature an audio bus. This means you can now apply insert effects, output audio from instrument tracks to a bus etc., just like a regular audio track.
  • Instruments can now be selected from a new button in the mixer channel strip. Pressing the MIDI keyboard part of the button is the same as arming the track, popping up the virtual keyboard.
  • Added preference option to disable scrolling of the display during playback.
  • Added preference option to select the recording file type (wav/flac/ogg).
  • Added option ‘Merge all clips’ to MIDI track menu.
  • Added option ‘Track options…’ to audio and MIDI clip menu so that there is no need to find an empty spot on a track to trigger the track menu.
  • ‘Ask to fit clip’ after leaving the piano roll editor now quantizes the clip to a whole bar.
  • Piano roll editor now defaults to a more usable zoom level.
  • The path where soundfonts are loaded from can now be set in the preferences.
  • When importing a broadcast wav file, the app will ask if you want to use the embedded offset information or not.
  • Recordings are now split at nearly 2GB instead of 1GB.
  • Added quantize to MIDI clip menu.
  • You can now use the green time marker to scroll the display (so you don’t need to switch to Scroll mode in some situations).
  • You can now make changes (draw/remove/move) while playing a loop in the piano roll editor.
  • Creating a new MIDI clip by tap-and-slide on the time line now quantizes to whole bars for ease of use.
  • Added a ‘Visit forum’ option to the Help menu.
  • After changing sample rates, the start and end times of MIDI clips changed. Solved.
  • Quantizing triplets was incorrect. Solved.
  • Loop button was not always displayed in the piano roll editor, even when there was enough space. Solved.
  • Using the virtual keyboard during recording could cause more latency than during monitoring. Solved.

Audio Evolution Mobile is available for purchase for 5.99 EUR.

Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/de…

ARPIO is a new musical instrument designed to play arpeggios*. Move up-and-down the matrix to set the pattern’s speed, or left-and-right to set its pitch. Tilt the device to control volume and pitchbend, or shake for vibrato.

A similar version of ARPIO is available on iOS devices, under the name Arpeggionome (http://arpeggionomepro.com)

*An arpeggio is a musical technique where notes in a chord are played in sequence, rather than ringing out simultaneously.

Phoenix Studio is coming to Android and iOS

Phoenix Studio is coming to Android and iOS. Three monosynths, a drum machine, a mixer and some effects – what else do you really need? Oh yeah, a sequencer, so you can put it all together! And all this is what PhoenixStudio is!

 

Get it here >>

Below is a text from Android Mobile on the topic:

This is a great new addition to the Android music making applications if you are interested in the more acid / synthesizer aspect of music making, but can of course be used for more than acid type of sounds. It comes with three Synthesizers and one Drum track with the possibility to sequence and comes with some effects plus the possibility to record changes on the fly.
It is the same amount tracks, sound modules and being 303’ish in the sounds it creates it could be compared to Mikrosonics RD4. The biggest difference is that RD4 is much easier to use as a Groovebox ( if not the easiest to use Groovebox ) and RD4 comes with more effects, more possibilites and full midi integration but…
Have not used PhoenixStudio much but my impression is it seems to have much clearer and better sound, making it interesting for people that would like something similar to RD4 but are more interested in the sound and less in the Groovebox aspect.
