Korg Announces iKaossilator App

"Korg Announces iKaossilator App Halloween Sale

- Half price sale in effect until Halloween -

MELVILLE, NY, October 25, 2012 - Korg announces a special global Halloween sale for its popular iKaossilator App. From October 25th through October 31st, musicians can scare up this popular app at a special $9.99 sale price. That's 50% off!

The iKaossilator is an expressive music synthesizer app offering 150 diverse sounds, combined with a five-part loop sequencer for creating multi-part tracks. As with all of Korg's powerful and fun Kaoss products, the iKaossilator lets users make music by tapping or sliding a finger on its X-Y touchpad. This intuitive form of control is instantly rewarding, and allows users to quickly create multi-part tracks regardless of their instrumental training.

For added flexibility and sharing, SoundCloud and iPad compatibility are included, as well as an Audio Copy feature, which provides an easy way to copy audio data between musical instrument apps.

Moving a finger across the iKaossilator horizontally will generally control the pitch, while vertical movements will control various synthesis and sound parameters. Musical phrases can be easily played by choosing one of 35 musical scales and selecting a musical "Key" or "Root".

The loop sequencer allows up to five musical parts to be recorded and layered as a "track." Fifty loops created by professional musicians help get things started quickly; a loop sequencer is also included for live performance.

New in Live 9: Animate your sounds

Uploaded by AbletonInc on Oct 24, 2012

"Record automation into clips. Edit automation with curves. Session View automation lets you capture your performance or add movement to your loops. Use curves to make automation more musical.

Live’s unique Session View makes it easy to improvise with musical ideas. In Live 9, you can now record parameter changes directly into Session View for even more flexibility. Edit automation curves with the mouse to create smooth mix transitions or radical parameter changes in your clips.

In one click, create new Session View scenes from your Arrangement tracks, or drag and copy individual clips from Arrangement to Session. The automation comes with them, making it easier than ever to move from improvising to arranging and back.

Live’s new Glue Compressor, developed in collaboration with Cytomic, is modeled on a classic 80s console bus compressor, both for its great sound and also to provide musical results with a simple set of controls.

New in Live 9: Audio to MIDI

Uploaded by AbletonInc on Oct 24, 2012

"Reclaim the music in your samples.... Live 9’s new tools for converting audio to MIDI give you unprecedented flexibility to extract musical ideas from your samples and build upon them.

Convert your favorite drum break with the Drums-to-MIDI feature and reuse it with your own sounds. Speed up your remixing work by using Harmony-to-MIDI to get the notes and chords from the original audio stems. Or simply seed your creativity with inspiring, natural-feeling MIDI grabbed directly from the most exciting parts of your music collection.

...or sing the music in your head. Sketch out ideas quickly by singing (or beatboxing) into Live and converting your recording to MIDI.

Your voice is the new keyboard: sing, beatbox, tap a rhythm on your desk, or play any solo instrument to capture your musical ideas as they come. Then use the Melody- or Drums-to-MIDI feature to turn your recordings into MIDI clips that you can edit and reuse with any sound."

New in Live 9: Faster Editing

Uploaded by AbletonInc on Oct 24, 2012

"Edit the details. Powerful MIDI note manipulation tools and an improved editing workflow help you create new musical ideas fast.

Transform MIDI notes
New controls in the MIDI editor let you quickly invert, reverse, transpose and speed up or slow down selected MIDI notes in a single click.

Stretch MIDI notes
MIDI Note Stretch markers let you speed up, slow down - or even reverse - selected MIDI notes.

Edit automation more easily
Add or remove breakpoints with a single click. Hover the mouse near envelope segments to select and drag them without using a modifier.

Move notes on and off the grid
Beats are easier to see when editing, and editing grids are now “sticky,” allowing notes to be freely moved and resized while still snapping when close to grid lines.

Warp clip automation
Audio clip automation is warped alongside the audio itself. Envelopes in MIDI clips can be stretched using MIDI stretch markers.

Add curves to automation
Hold a modifier while dragging to create and edit curves in automation envelopes."
