Today XVision announces a new app for iPhone, GeoRing – instant ringtone shuffle for iPhone without jailbreak. To celebrate its launch, GeoRing is now on sale in the App Store at the special price of $0.99. Sale ends on 5th March 2011.

“Finally, you can instantly turn any song in your iTunes library to a ringtone with just a few taps. Unlike other ringtone-making apps, GeoRing doesn’t require iTunes syncing, which means your phone can ring with any song right away,” said Johnny, XVision CEO. “You can even instantly turn your entire iTunes library into ringtones.”

With Shuffle feature, you hear a new ringtone every time. Create a Ringtone Playlist of your favorite songs and GeoRing randomly picks one song when your phone rings. Never have to make the tough decision of choosing one default ringtone anymore.

Plus, you get to use all parts of your top song as ringtones. Just add the song multiple times to your Ringtone Playlist and set different start time. It’s an awesome way to enjoy your top music hit.

Mixed In Key, makers of award-winning Harmonic Mixing software used by world-renowned DJs, announces DJ Tempo, their first app for iPhone OS. This new app takes advantage of the same tempo-detection algorithm of their flagship product to enable fans to quickly find the tempo of music played around them.

“DJ Tempo is the easiest way to discover the tempo of music playing in clubs and on the radio”, said Yakov Vorobyev, Founder of Mixed In Key. “If you’ve ever wanted to see how the DJ progresses throughout the night, use this app.”

DJ Tempo utilizes the [aufTAKT] BPM detection algorithm by Zplane Development found in Mixed In Key’s flagship application. This algorithm analyzes music in real-time and determines the tempo based on the time signature and downbeat location.  DJ Tempo packs this technology into a portable iPhone OS package for use in a live, real-time environment.  Whether you’re a DJ mapping out a playlist on the go, or simply want to find out how the DJ progresses through a set in a club, DJ Tempo lets you use this technology on your iPhone OS device.

DJ Tempo’s singular focus and clean interface make it fast and easy to use. Simply select the amount of time you’d like it to analyze the music – 5, 10, or 20 seconds – and touch the Analyze Tempo button. Within seconds, the tempo, in beats per minute, appears on the screen. DJ Tempo is compatible with iPhone, iPod touch (2nd generation), and iPod touch (3rd generation).

DJ Tempo is available for $4.99 on the iTunes App Store by searching for “Mixed In Key”.

Most iPhone instruments are hindered by the small screen size. The keys are too small, which means it’s easy to play a wrong note.

Hexaphone embraces the small screen size, solving the space problem by providing a simplified, six-note keyboard. The six notes are selected based on the type of music you want to play. The “wrong notes” are removed from the screen entirely, freeing up room for bigger keys across more octaves.

Choose a six-note scale based on the type of music you want to play (Blues, Dance, Trance, and many more), fire up a beat, and off you go!

Hexaphone allows you to change the sound of the keys and choose a variety of drum loops to play in the background. It also has record and playback capabilities — you can lay down a quick bassline, record it, and then play along with it as you add a melody, chords, etc.

Singing.Birds

We offer you two levels of difficulty to train your memory. In the easy mode a single note is added to the song every round. That’s to easy for you? Try the hard mode where additionally to the increasing length every round a different song is played.

To relax from that hard mnemonic training you can use the birds to make music.

We hope you enjoy that little game.
