I’ve always been a fan of PowerKeys for the iPhone/Touch. It started off a bit buggy and crashy, but since the last update, it seems very stable. A really nice feature of the new version is that you can (more…)
Mobile Roadie has a very neat way of creating iPhone apps, mostly aimed at the music market. It’s very, very neat. Rather than me rabbiting on about it, have a look at the video here.
So, this week’s been a pretty bad one for Apple then. The three most important things to Apple over the past number of years have been the Mac user experience (ie OS X and the Mac computer), the iPhone, and of course, the iPod & iTunes. Every single one of these came under serious attack this week from either Microsoft or Google.
Apple put an instant hole in the pocket of people like me everywhere today, by releasing updates to their two premium software products for media professionals, Final Cut Studio and Logic Studio.

If you have a Mac, particularly a laptop and you don’t have Undercover, all I can say is, buy it now. It’s cheap and it’s clever. Apple should just buy this company and make the software standard on every Mac.
Yup, someone put the Real Book on the iPhone! A word of warning though, there are no lyrics here, nor melodies, just purely chords. But if you’re stuck at a gig and you need to comp your way thru something you don’t know, this is brilliant. And the best feature? (more…)
Pro Tools 8 will be released sometime in December, and if the Digidesign site is anything to go by, Apple had better (more…)
