All the best, Candy Cane team PS - We will be giving away free promo codes for Melodica and Fuzzle in the upcoming days to our twitter community. Follow us on: http://twitter.com/candycaneapps
Great news!!! I'm off to the app store to purchase! But then again .... think I'll wait to see if I won a promo code .... NOT .... I can't wait
Yes it is influenced in the Tenori-on! You will be able to save Melodies already in release 1.1 that will be submitted next week. Sharing features are also on the way !
PaklSound is a similar app that I enjoyed a lot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKySLt3HPO4 It has 3 pages: one for melody, one for the drums and one for the bass. Does Melodica have different sounds or only one page?
Only one page, as far as I can tell. I'm not seeing any other options in the app. It sounds pretty good. Made a nice little loop. I wish there was some sort of progress bar at the bottom, so that you could follow it, not just knowing where it was when the notes lits up. Perhaps pausing, rewinding and going forward, listening and changing notes, then starting the melody again. It seems a bit limited in its current state. The video trailer seems to show all there is. Pretty fun to play around with, though.
Currently Melodica only has that page, but I would not even compare the sound quality of Melodica with Paklsound. Try it out yourself to see the difference, with our app you can actually make music!
Saving and Sharing functionality are coming on the upcoming versions. 1.1 will be submitted next week
Yes, actually I think that Melodica has really good sounds and that's why I'm thinking to get it, but I wish I could pause/rewind/forward the beat and have at least 3 different pages. If it has all of this and more sounds I would easily pay 8$ for this.
Sounds good. That'll be a gread addition. I've just made another hit, I'm going to draw the pattern so that I don't loose it
Damn! I was thinking of creating a game like that! Very nice... instrument tool I've just bought it, and it's great! Can't wait for promised update
Now there's a great idea! I think I'll make up a grid (and a lot of copies) to keep patterns. Melodica is as good as promised! Thanks candycaneapps! Now I'll be looking forward to the update.
Heh, my brain went "paper, pen, quick!", never pausing to come to that conclusion. That would be a much easier way of doing it, yes
Very nice! I've wanted some creative fun tool for my iTouch, and this seems cool, so I went and bought it. I look forward to v1.1! This reminds me a little of Electroplancton on the Nintendo DS. There was a feature in the game that allowed you to layer Nintendo sound effects to the beat of the Mario theme, allowing you to do something similar to what Melodica does. I don't think I would have bought it if it wasn't on sale - just thought I'd mention that.
Instant purchase from me!! I just have one feedback though. Can you please set the shake sensitivity lower? At first I was confused why none of the cells I pressed stuck. Only after awhile did I realise that my chair incline was shifting ever so slightly to and fro and that caused melodica to continuously reset. In fact, if I just move my iPhone slightly, it would reset itself.
