RJDJ listening screen

RJDJ generates music with the help of the headset microphone and different algorhythms to manipulate the input. The result is a soundtrack to your realworld experience. App store link

One scene for example takes the sounds sourrounding you and echos them. But it’s not a simple echo – the sounds are bend and pitched which produces a mind-boggling effect. Another scene somehow seems to undestand different kinds of sounds. So it able to replace the actual sounds with it’s own sounds.

It’s hard to imagine what it sounds and feels like because it works with your evironment. You should definitly try it out yourself if this sounds interesting to you. I promise it’s an interesting experience.

There are some extra functionalities: you can share your sound experiences with the RDDJ community and you can build you own soundscenes. I didn’t try this yet and I possibly never will.

Right now (April 2009) they are giving away all three RJDJ apps for free, I think they want to reach a wider audience. So go get the apps now!
