In desperate love with our iPads, we left the iPhone apps languishing unmaintained. They don’t copy or paste, they don’t play well with others, they’re all still rocking 3G. Yet, they still tweak sounds quite strangely, and so gentle(ladies and)men, we will rebuild them!

This holiday season we’re cooking up a whole new series of strange toys for the iPhone, and when we launch in the months to come, the current crop will have to go. As of today, the free sample versions of our paid iPhone apps have been axed.

How can you get some strange samples, you ask? We’ve made the paid apps free!

Slice beat-juggling freakout is free!
Curtis Heavy granular glitchfest is free!
Sound Scope Space wave sculpting is free!
Spoke rhythm massage is free!

See you next year

Version 1.5 of CP 1919 is live today, adding a new oscillator tuning mode. Check out this video of the additive organ-like sounds.

Five new CP 1919 tutorial videos are up. Unearth the hidden power. Unleash your curiosity. Check ‘em:

1 – Harp Effect Tutorial
2 – Frozen Fluid Tutorial
3 – Keyboard Tutorial
4 – Flowing Fluid Tutorial
5 – Chord Insanity Tutorial

There’s a fresh new Donut update today. Version 1.1 adds file loading, audio Copy/Paste, and Dropbox support.

Since loading files was in such high demand, Donut will even load multiple files at the same time. Rather than mix them however, the files are interleaved for maximal glitch. You can even record while a file is being loaded, to interleave your live recording with the file.

See it in action here:

All new versions of Curtis and CP 1919 have hit the app store. These include stability improvements for Curtis along with Dropbox support for CP 1919. Update away!

After a long trek through Asia and a still longer period of post-travel decompression we’re back in the saddle with a bunch of announcements.

The addition of our Comlink interface which provides Copy/Paste and now Dropbox support to Curtis introduced some memory issues which lead to frequent crashes. These have been addressed in a new build submitted to Apple today. Look for the update soon!

The Comlink has been added to CP 1919 as well, so that means in the next update you’ll not only get Copy/Paste and Dropbox support but also a CP 1919 manual. Check the link to sneak a peek at the new interface design! It’s on the way through the app approval process now. Also, to ease your wait, the price has been lowered to $9.99.

Up next, Donut improvements.

And finally, thanks Steve
