Retronyms, makers of iPhone applications Recorder and FourTrack, have released DopplerPad (App Store link), a live performance music production application for the iPhone and iPod touch inspired by the Korg Kaossillator, Yamaha Tenori-on and DJ mixers.
Synthesizers, samplers and drum pads are combined in the app to create an intuitive, portable instrument.
DopplerPad’s interface imitates the standard DJ setup of a mixer with turntables on either side, but replaces the turntables with music-producing touchpads. The app launches to the mixer, where the user can access the two touchpads, playback controls, a crossfader and a loop bank that stores up to 14 loops.
DopplerPad is $9.99 in the iTunes App Store. Details below. Read more…

Think that the keytar isn’t geeky enough for you?
Then you may want to build a DIY Kaossilator Guitar.
James Haskin came up with the idea for this project after seeing a video of Wayne Coyne of The Flaming Lips. He had mounted his Kaossilator on a guitar and a taped the neck of a video game controller next to it to make it look like he was fingering the notes.
Instructions for building the Kaossilator Guitar Synth are available at Instructables.
