New way to create cool mash-ups
MiniMash, a new iPhone application that allows users to create fun mashups and DJ sets using their favorite songs, is now available for download from the iTunes store.
MiniMash syncs with iTunes playlists and uses a highly developed analysis algorithm to scans each track’s beat information. With MiniMash, users play tracks in rhythmic unison with one another, change the overall tempo, set loop points, change the pitch, crossfade, and more. The record function saves and shares users’ mini masterpiece via file sharing, email, or built-in SoundCloud support. In fact, the MiniMash website and blog hosts videos of mashups by MiniMash users from around the world.
Creator Daniel Iglesia makes music and media for humans, computers, and broad interactions of the two. He recently completed his doctorate at Columbia University where he studied at the Computer Music Center (CMC). He is currently a Visiting Instructor at the Pratt Institute, and a Visiting Lecturer at Princeton University, where he co-leads the Princeton Laptop Orchestra (PLOrk). He recently gave a talk on PLOrk at the TEDx conference in Brooklyn.

Do you want to be a true Wireless DJ ?
The check this iPad app out!
iPad touch controller for DJs, works wirelessly with Traktor Pro or anything else, easy to set up
Multi-touch mixer and decks
Faders, EQ, headphone and playback controls, needle search and pitch bend — it’s all there.
Magic Stripes for pitch bending and direct manipulation
We have a better idea than simulating a jog dial: Magic Stripes. One finger for pitch bending, two for ultra-precise tempo adjustment.
Sneak preview of a new music app called Cascadr
Brief demo of the progress thus far on a new app, Cascadr.
Top set of columns can be slid up and down to control the pitch of each of the 8 notes in the sequence. Bottom set of columns control the volume of each note. The animation signifies the speed of each sequence – note that they don’t sync with the particular note that’s playing – it’s all just for show at the moment!
