SoundWire (full version)

Mon, 31 Oct 2011 08:03:41 +0000

SoundWire lets you send any music or audio ("what you hear now") from your Windows or Linux PC to your Android mobile devices, or other PCs. Use it as:
- A wireless extension of your PC-based music system for parties
- A remote headphone amp (wireless headphones)
- A way to listen to music and movies from your computer anywhere in your house or out on your deck.

The full version of SoundWire enables unlimited Opus audio compression, can handle up to 10 connections at the same time, and has no ads or interruptions. It also has a special Pro Mode to set and display buffer latency precisely in milliseconds. You can use any music player on your PC or laptop like Grooveshark, Spotify, YouTube, or iTunes and feed the live sound directly to your Android device. SoundWire lets you listen to the free versions of Grooveshark and Spotify on your phone.

SoundWire has low latency (audio delay), which means it can even be used to listen to the soundtrack of a movie or YouTube video while you watch (**Note you must adjust the buffer size in app settings for low latency). There are other uses too... SoundWire can work as a baby monitor or listening device with a computer such as a netbook that has a built-in microphone. Hook up turntables to your computer's line input and stream a live DJ set to another part of the house over WiFi, or anywhere else over 3G/4G.

Features
- Live audio capture and streaming to multiple clients
- Not locked to one music player
- Excellent sound quality (44.1 / 48 kHz stereo 16-bit, PCM or Opus compression)
- True low latency (unlike AirPlay, Airfoil)
- Easy to use
- Compression option greatly reduces network usage
- x86 and MIPS support, stream music from PC to PC running virtualized app (Linux/Windows)
- Record SoundWire audio to a file (MP3 or WAV)

Before using SoundWire on your Android device you must install and run the SoundWire Server application on the Windows/Linux PC or laptop which is your source of music, web audio streaming, or other sounds. Download the server at http://georgielabs.net

For more information see the getting started guide at http://georgielabs.net/SoundWireHelp.html

These links are also available in the app. If you have any problems please see the troubleshooting tips at the above link. For example if you get choppy audio try restarting your wireless router, then try the other troubleshooting suggestions in the guide. If you get a message saying the app is not licensed and this message is incorrect then please check your internet connection and try again.

Please rate the app and submit comments on Google Play to let us know what you think of SoundWire. If you have a question or bug report send email to soundwire@georgielabs.cjb.net.

Online manual: http://www.audio-evolution.com/manual/doku.php?id=start

To prevent your device's mic from picking up what the speaker is playing back, we recommend using an iRig MIC Cast: http://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/irigmiccast. This mic is of better quality and playback is done through its headphone output. Note that hardware monitoring is not possible and you won't hear what you are recording through the headphone.

Please see our extensive topic on latency in the online manual: http://www.audio-evolution.com/manual/doku.php

Recent changes:
• License extension period did not work for everyone. Hopefully solved now.
• When the device came on after sleep, an erroneous error message could appear that your screen was rotated. Solved.

Electrum Drum Machine/Sampler

Thu, 17 Dec 2009 13:00:16 +0000

Programmable drum machine.

● WAV file import - Load YOUR OWN SAMPLES from SDCARD. Long press a sound button to bring up the sample loading dialog.

Use my Sonic Chop app (sold separate) to chop samples from Music on your device and load them right into Electrum!

● Use samples and loops to make beats and songs.

● Load up to 16 samples. Swipe Left/Right to access the next eight sample pads

● Load MIDI drum files for quicker programming. Electrum comes with an assortment of pre-made MIDI files.

● Preview (audition) samples LIVE while the machine is playing, they will mix right into the beat.

● Set samples or loops to retrigger on programmed slots or to play completely through before triggering the sample again - useful for using loops!

● Look at the MENU for more options such as ability to save and load your own custom drumkits - once you've loaded the sounds you like unto the pads and adjusted them you can save the settings as a drumkit, separate from the patch itself!

● RECORD samples with the microphone.

● Stretch loops to fit the current project BPM.

● Edit a sample's start and end point, pitch and pan Left/Right.

● Use other time signatures such as 3/4, 6/8, etc.

● Add some swing to your beats with the SHUFFLE setting.

● Add FX to your samples - Reverse, Delay, Distortion, and Reverb

● Play Electrum with an external USB MIDI controller

USB MIDI Control has been tested on:

Galaxy Nexus phone
Galaxy Tablet 10.1
Motorola XOOM

● Sample accurate playback engine.

● WAV/MIDI/Pad Export-load your song into any MIDI capable sequencer on your computer.

● Sharing - install the Soundcloud app from the market and you can share beats right to soundcloud (see Electrum's Menu->More->Share)

Electrum has 16 sounds and you can program up to 32 patterns. A full sequencer allows you to string the patterns together into songs or longer beats. You can also play patterns "live", switching them as the machine is playing.

For multitouch devices, Electrum has a multitouch pad dialog as well (See Menu->Play Multitouch pads) where you can play just like an MPC by hitting the pads.

LATENCY OF THE MULTITOUCH PADS DEPENDS ON YOUR DEVICE. SOME DEVICES HAVE VERY BAD LAG RESPONSE. TESTED AS FAST: GALAXY TABLET, DROID X, DROID 1. KNOWN BAD: HTC DESIRE.

HTC WILDFIRE IS TOO SLOW OF A DEVICE TO run Electrum effectively. Sorry, upgrade your device, it's just too slow (523Mhz only).

Please NOTE: The pads on the main screen are not designed to play real time because they are not multitouch. Use the multitouch pads for that.

Also check out my ReLoop music sequencer, which allows you to sequence loops just like Garageband or Sony's ACID.

PERMISSIONS:

PHONE STATE/IDENTITY - used to stop playing if a phone call comes in. IDENTITY is NOT used for anything and it not read at all.

SDCARD WRITE/READ - used to read sound files, and to save settings, patches, and drummkits

Recent changes:
4.7.1.1. Fixed crash when mapping MIDI notes. Fixed a few other bugs and crashes.

4.7.1 - Checkboxes are now "non custom" until I figure out how to fix them for Android 4.2 and higher

4.7.0 - Added basic Reverb in Pad FX section

4.6.9 - Double tap to mute was broken, fixed now.

4.6.8 - Updated to allow 16 pads! Swipe left/right on pads and on mixer faders to access the next 8

4.6.7 - 24 bit WAV import support

See MENU->MORE->PLAY pads with USB MIDI
