Music Improvisation App For iPhone And iPod Touch

Panpipes Ho! has announced the release and immediate availability of mScribble: Scribble beautiful music! 1.0, the latest version of its music improvisation app for iPhone and iPod touch. This version features a completely redesigned user interface and sharing for Facebook, Twitter and more via SoundCloud. It is a free download from the iTunes App Store.

What's a music improvisation app? mScribble has built-in knowledge of the rules of harmony, melody and rhythm in various music styles. The user can play an infinite variety of expressive melodies while accompanied by the app by tapping and sliding over the entire touch screen. Using it, even individuals with no musical experience can create virtuoso performances.

The controls are kept to a bare minimum, allowing selection of melody sound color, accompaniment volume and music style. The music styles range from be-bop to renaissance to zombie. Each music style includes a description and example performance. One special style allows a user to create her own version of Pachelbel's Canon in three voices with the tip of her finger.


The recording feature is on by default. The app records the user's performances directly into a format that can be uploaded to SoundCloud, sent via email or downloaded to the desktop without delay.

Additionally, a special mode of play called Toddler Mode can be activated which allows the little ones to touch the app's icon and immediately begin to play without needing to navigate the user interface. Teachers of special needs kids requested a specific music style for their students. That is available as Special Kids' Mode.

Pricing and Availability:
mScribble: Scribble beautiful music! 1.0 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Music category. An earlier version of mScribble was featured as "New and Noteworthy" on the front page of the App Store twice in 2010.
