mScribble is a new music-creation app for the iPhone and iPod Touch that allows players of all ages to feel like accomplished composers as they scribble their way through an array of diverse tracks and beats. The technology used in the app ensures everyone can create original compositions. Here’s how it works (from the press release):
The concepts and algorithms used to develop mScribble were originally created for extremely complex design problems in the Aerospace industry. Utilizing this unique technology, mScribble enables users to concentrate on creating melodies, rather than the technicalities behind musical articulation. By capturing and managing the effects of dynamics, timbre, and texture of a musical composition, mScribble provides a quintessential foundation for users to create unique masterpieces.
The application is touted as perfect for children, parents, music teachers and music lovers alike. There are ten different music styles included – users get to pick from four “sound colors” which alter the underlying tone. Then by tapping and scribbling on the screen, you can control the pitch and volume of a melody while mScribble ensures that the resulting melody doesn’t sound too horrible. 😉
