GrainProc: an upcoming toe controlled granular processing app for iPad

Update - Email from the developers:
“The app is ready for release but we just need to take care of some incorporating issues and also get Apple’s approval before it can hit the App Store. We will probably take care of the legal issues sometime within the next few weeks and then send it for App Store review.”

There’s apparently a new granular processing app coming out that will, based on what’s shown in the above video, allow you to use your toes to control the effects in the app. That will certainly be an interesting experience. If you don’t have an iWah or AmpDock, this could be a cheaper, and unique alternative. I wonder if they’ll add Virtual MIDI for controlling other apps in the background, or Audiobus support. Could be cool to use it in the filter slot…

Shimmering Horizons” are created from fragmented, temporally manipulated, and reconstructed sonic material (plucks, strums, and less typical excitations). PediProc, the new foot-controlled granular processing app by Mayank Sanganeria and Kurt James Werner, will be available soon.“

Massive JamUp Pro 2.0 update arrives!

The long anticipated 2.0 update for JamUp Pro is finally here bringing loads of new features. Here’s what’s new:

  • Tone sharing to share and download artist and user presets
  • Griffin Technology StompBox support
  • 64 slot preset manager
  • New added Octave and Cry Wah effect
  • New bass expansion package
  • New boutique expansion package
  • Ultra low latency, 50% improvement
  • Phrase Sampler added undo support
  • Continuous speed adjust in iTunes JAM player

I think that this tone sharing idea is fantastic, now you’ll be able to discover and share new set ups with other players! It’s also great to see Griffin Stompbox support, however I’d much rather prefer an Alesis AmpDock for stomping because it’s a pedal board and a docked audio interface. Interfaces that use the 1/8″ headphone jack on your iDevice almost always leave you with tons of feedback if you’re doing anything with high gain. Plus, docked interfaces are much more iDevice secure than interfaces with cables hanging out of the dock, which are okay if all you’re looking to do is practicing but if you want to perform with your iDevice or use a pedal board, I’d definitely recommend the AmpDock.

JamUp Pro is currently on sale at %50 off: $9.99 from $19.99
