CP: Button Accordion/Melodeon Apps for the iPad

[eskin]

I've just released three Button Accordion/Melodeon apps for the iPad:

Melodeon B/C:

Melodeon C#/D:

Melodeon D/G:

These apps are only for the iPad, not the iPhone/iPod Touch, although I may do a reduced button count version for the smaller platforms in the future.

If anyone wants a free copy, just let me know and I can give you a code to use (codes only usable on the USA iTunes App Store).

Also coming in November, "BeeSeeBox" - Irish B/C Button Accordion for the iPhone/iPod Touch, uses the same samples as the iPad B/C app:

Tonight, I submitted the first 1.1 update to Apple that added a "Touch Bellows" control mode that allows you to just touch the screen to control the bellows instead of having to tilt the instrument. This allows you to hold and play the iPad app exactly like you would a real instrument.


The 1.1 update of the B/C, C#/D, and D/G versions will have this feature, should be available around Nov 17th. The iPod 1.0 version of the B/C box, called "BeeSeeBox" as well as the iPad C/F and G/C versions 1.0 will both have this feature.
