Frontier Design Group released Thursday PianoStudio 1.0, a new music composition and performance app for the iPhone and iPod touch.
The app features three built-in piano sounds, and allows users to compose and perform songs. PianoStudio offers mobile musicians a substantial set of tools for creating songs, including a built-in Chord Selector and a Phrase Editor.
By placing individual notes, entire chords, and complete musical phrases onto a set of buttons that can be ordered and played, users can write and perform real piano music with chord progressions, "two-handed" patterns, and melodies in Allegro.
PianoStudio also features:
- 9 built-in demo songs
- Built-in Recorder with overdubbing, variable tempo, metronome, and undo/redo
- Tilt-controlled volume and sustain pedal
- Built-in chord library with over 10,000 chords
- 5 banks of buttons per song
- 9 available button layout styles with between 8 and 40 buttons, plus keyboard-and-buttons style
PianoStudio is available in the App Store for US$6.99.
