GarageBand for iPhone and iPod Touch



GarageBand 1.1 for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch is available on the App Store™ for $4.99 (US) to new users, or as a free update for existing GarageBand for iPad customers. GarageBand is a universal app that runs on iPad, iPad 2, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S and iPod touch (3rd & 4th generation).

Apple designs Macs, the best personal computers in the world, along with OS X, iLife, iWork and professional software. Apple leads the digital music revolution with its iPods and iTunes online store. Apple has reinvented the mobile phone with its revolutionary iPhone and App Store, and has recently introduced iPad 2 which is defining the future of mobile media and computing devices.

Apple® today announced that GarageBand, its breakthrough music creation app, is now available for iPhone and iPod touch users. Introduced earlier this year on iPad, GarageBand uses Apple’s revolutionary Multi-Touch™ interface to make it easy for anyone to create and record their own songs, even if they’ve never played an instrument before.

GarageBand on iPad has been a big hit and we think customers will love using it on their iPhone or iPod touch,” said Philip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing. “The innovative Multi-Touch interface combined with Smart Instruments makes it easy to create great sounding music, even if you’ve never studied music or played an instrument before.

GarageBand features a collection of fun Touch Instruments that sound great and make it easy for beginners or experienced musicians to play and record keyboards, guitars, drums and basses in a wide variety of styles. Smart Instruments now allow you to choose from an extensive new library of custom chords so you can play and strum along with your favorite songs.

You can plug your electric guitar into iPad, iPhone or iPod touch to play and record through classic amps and stompbox effects, or record your voice or any acoustic sound using the built-in microphone. GarageBand allows you to record and mix up to eight tracks and then share your finished song with friends or send it to your Mac to keep working on it in GarageBand or Logic Pro.

Microphone And Camera in the Next iPod Touch



The importance of this news is more than believed because of course if we combine the new iPod Touch with a microphone with a VoIP service like Skype or fringe, this is an entertainment gadget communication wherever connection WiFi. And, most importantly, the operators have no power over the iPod touch as to block this capability (it is also recalled that recently it was rumored that the next iPod Touch will have a much bigger screen).

After the appearance of the new iPhone 3GS many expected that Apple will also update iPod Touch but those hopes a little watered down when we found out that unlike the old iPhone 3G users, people who have an iPod touch should pay about 10 dollars to have the OS 3.0 … that was not a good sign by the people from Apple with respect to the device.

Wired But now a source reveals that “well connected” he assured them would be to get a new iPod Touch with a microphone and camera. Factories in China and Apple would be manufacturing the device and is expected to arrive in two or three months.

The truth would be a good move for Apple (especially competing in the segment of the tablets) because we would be talking about an iPod touch would be extremely useful to navigate with ease and know that the iPhone, take photos and enjoy free calls .

Apple iPod touch 32 GB (3rd Generation)



The good: The third generation of Apple's iPod Touch is still the king of the hill when it comes to portable, Wi-Fi-wielding media players. New additions such as Voice Control, graphics enhancements, improved accessibility, higher capacity, and a faster processor help to refine an already excellent product.

The bad: The video cameras found on the iPhone 3GS and iPod Nano remain conspicuously absent. The lack of refinements to its audio quality, hardware design, and video playback leave us feeling just a little uninspired.

The bottom line: Though the updates are subtle, the third-generation iPod Touch leaves its competitors in the dust.

IMPORTANT: To get started using your iPod, charge your player using the USB cable for at least 2 hours
  • 32 GB capacity for 7,000 songs, 40,000 photos, or 40 hours of video
