"MiniVLTone for iPhone and iPod Touch is a shout-out to the 1980s handheld electronic era, paying homage to the Casio VL-Tone synthesizer. Jam back to the decade of one-hit-wonders and fondly recall the days when MTV still played music-videos! Listening to MiniVLTone's sampled beats will remind you of the rise of New Wave and Synth Pop, as well as the fall of the Berlin Wall, and playing some melodies on the chiclet keyboard will surely take you back to the time of 8-bit simplicity and Rubik's Cube complexity! And don't forget Trio's Da Da Da either! The Challenger and Chernobyl might be long gone, but SWING, ROCK-1, BOSSANOVA and SAMBA rhythms live on in Apple's iTunes App Store!
MiniVLTone includes the following features: 29 chiclet keyboard with OCTAVE control for four full octaves of square-wave synthesizer sonics, analog-style VOLUME slider control, five fantastic INSTRUMENTS (piano, fantasy, violin, flute, and guitar) in full circa-1981 monophonic fidelity, and ten awesomely eighties pre-drum-machine RHYTHMS (march ,waltz, 4-beat, swing, rock-1, rock-2, bossanova, samba, rhumba, and beguine), as well as the world-famously stylish DEMO SONG!MiniVLTone does not include a calculator, recording mode, one-key-play, LCD display, or ADSR envelope programming, but it also does not require four AA-batteries!"
