New iphone must haves... What do you use or can't live w/o?

[weeddigger]

Thanks a million guys! And keep them coming if you know more!!

- PS, I bought my phone online thru my work discount. I didn't get a discount on the phone, but I did on the service (20%), and some off accessories.


Has anyone had a bitch of a time putting on a screen protector?!?

OMG I hate those things!!!

I love:
JR Hexatone Pro for weird, IDMish drumloops.
Jasuto for a little reactable-like fun.
TouchOSC: it's like a lemur on your phone. It uses Open Sound Control signals over WiFi. Must Have!

You don't need a screen protector, the iPhone already has a glass screen. Kind of a scam if you ask me.

Unless you're like me and like to toy with the iphone while eating finger fulls of peanut butter.

[polyslax]

Hexatone Pro
Synth Pond
Beat Maker

These are the ones I use.

Hexatone is actually on my Dock... lol

some things not already mentioned:

Dopplerpad is something to check out, too bad they don't have a Lite version. But it's a fun performance-oriented tool. Let's you write loops and mix between them on the fly, pretty slick.

They're coming out with a 3G S-only version of Technobox with another 303.

Aura is pretty awesome if you like ambient things. 4 evolving pads and some sound makers, great UI.

And non-music:

Jailbreaking:
I jailbroke my 3G S as soon as it was available via Purplera1n, but if you're on 3.0.1 you'd need redsn0w. Many guides online, but with apps like Categories, 5 icon dock, 5 rows and 5 columns, SBSettings and all it's lovely toggles I don't think I'd enjoy my iPhone as much as I do when it's jailbroken. 3G Unrestrictor is a nice thing to have if you want to download apps larger than 10MB or otherwise have reasons for apps to see 3G as wifi (Skype calls, anyone?). Winterboard for theming/sound changing. I have had to restore my phone once because I had a shady repository installed to Cydia and the apps on it were of questionable quality. I thought I was installing one app from a trusted repo and it was the cracked version from the shady one =/ Live and learn.

AppStore:
TweetDeck if you like Twitter and use Tweetdeck. Moyo, if you have a lot of friends with iPhones and want a blackberry messenger-like experience. It's free for now.

I'm sure there's more that I can't think of off the top of my head. If you're into drawing/painting, Layers or Brushes would be great to have.

listen - I've tried most of the apps mentioned here and basically beatmaker is the one that is most flexible and you really can make a tune sat in the dentists waiting room.

technobox is cool if you like rebirth or 303's

what I want to see though is an ableton app, now that would be cooooool

[rutgermuller]

Bleep!BOX sounds pretty awesome. I might check it out. I like the concept of real-time sythesis, for live tweaking! ....

....Not unlike Korg DS-10, which is for Nintendo DS. Sublime user interface and a great (though typical) ds-10 sound. Well not just one sound, it's a complete MS-10 emulation which is good for unlimited timbres. Check my DS-10 Project, which is quite succesful: http://www.myspace.com/ds10dominator . Talking about topic hijacking

What I also like about most handheld software is that it's idiot proof, you don't have to worry about clipping for example. It's just about having fun.

Oh for F S!

HAPLOME monome emulator!!! Free and amazing. It's a little buggy, but its all free so it's all good! Just remember if it goes offline with your computer, Command-TAB brings it right back!

AMBIANCE - 99 cents and sounds great
Peterson Strobe Tuner - 10 dollars, but the hardware is 200 and there is no difference.

Bebot
Melodica
TouchOSC
WIVI Band
Bowls
Air Mouse
Mujik
iRealBook

Do NOT buy Automap as it is incredibly bad.

[illsub1]

and with all iphone connected apps set up an AdHoc network for best results

[weeddigger]

[jamester]

Guitar Toolkit
BeatMaker
iReal Book
Karajan (ear training)
Pandora

[fatrabbit]

Is there some sort of Tenori-On like app out there?

Hexatone Pro looks like it might be similar in that it has a unique interface.

[Tone Deft]

just got back from the iStore with a 32Gb phone. I don't know what 'mr green' actually means but I think this is a time to use him.
