Does anybody know how to get this to work with the ipod touch 4g pllzzzzz help if you do!

[Jacno77]

@idku34 it'll work, i bought one and my iphone works with it, its abit buggy as every hour it'll unplug itself and i'd have to replug the phone. just plug the hone in, if it doesn't work, unplug and try again, and way 5 seconds. usulayy takes 2 tries

[RayLat25]

[JakobBrunner]

[dimboorz]

[Goodmusicvideos]

@dimboorz Just got one.. With MIDI Bridge you can use it with ANY program.. SICK! Especially for 50 bux on ebay

[AlmostSkater210]

@proaudiostar how do you record your trakcs and put them on your computer? please reply..

[Tubbsterinator]

Do you get a power cable with it ?

[Synthematix]

Forget using any apple touchscreen device as a musical instrument. Absolute rubbish.

[HeyLookItsASpah]

@Synthematix agreed.

[Synthematix]

Shame it doesnt work on ios5

[TheBusinessisgood]

is this compatible with the iphone 4s?

[martinweymouth]

@TheBusinessisgood Unfortunately, the app ISN'T compatible with iOS 5. I'm a bit p****d since I just upgraded.....

[TheBusinessisgood]

@martinweymouth DAMNIT.It looks like im going to buy a microkorg lol.

[Synthematix]

@TheBusinessisgood

wise choice these tochscreen devices are very limited

[jonnyweston]

Like seriously... great video - all part from the guy who hasn't got a clue about how to use the dslr in film mode. Just cause younhve f1.4 or f1.8 doesn't mean you have to use it all the time!!

[videoeditors]

Does it work with other apps?

[Blasspoint0]

Sweet video... what type of camera is Dylan using? Im in the market for a new camera and that little guy has great quality

[CategoryFilm]

Hey,

Simple question, is it also possible to just play normal 'piano' on this instrument?

thanks.

[strangleholdrecords]

@CategoryFilm

yes you can plus many other sounds

[SimonBeable]

this is awesome

[TheHeardman]

Who cares. Nanostudio has midi support and a better user interface and better synth sounds.

[hugomak3]

Does anybody know the dimensions (WxDxH) of it? seems can't be found anywhere.

Thanks

[PiKTURDIS]

Crazy....ima bout to go crazy......

[wrathallll]

can you use any keyboard app with it?????

[jukpulfer]

@wrathallll yes

[wrathallll]

@jukpulfer Siiick!!

[jukpulfer]

@wrathallll my question: can i use the synthstation 49(for ipad) with a ipod or iphone?? if yes: welcome synthstation 49. if not: >.<

[dodger555]

Great video, I love the quality. What make and model of camera is the guy behind you using?

BTW I'm thinking of getting the Akai MPK25 or 49.

[chuckles1252]

i WAS thinkin about buying a droid. now i'm goin with the iphone just for this

[jashot7]

This works with a growing number of apps on the app store including Akai's own Synthstation app currently priced at $1.99 (Universal:One purchase gets you the iPad and iPhone version). The outstanding NanoStudio app works well with this. Others: Music Studio, 50 in 1, NLog MIDI Synth, VirSyn's iVoxel, and more...

[evolutionmb]

it's Chuck at Buy More

[civ1]

Very cool, but these two music store employees look as though they should get back to work. The boss comes barreling in and says : "what the hell are are you guys doing? get back to work!"

[hongdekong]

o and what apps does it all work with?

[hongdekong]

o and is the app free?

[hongdekong]

i friggin love this camera guy!

[muchoupdate]

5:30, I like how he says "jam out".

[desofmidnor]

At 4:15 that sounds like hadouken pretty much.

[IcarusTuga7]

Need a midi IN port for use in a larger keyboard as controller..and midi out for sequencer..

[PachyRSX]

is it compatible with any audio/keyboard synth app for an iphone? or is it just for the akai synth station app?

[TheSpiderMind]

try andriod next time akai

[MadGoat]

@TheSpiderMind I doubt that Akai or anyone will ever do android. Why you may ask? The android hardware is so fragmented that they would it would end up in endless hair pulling. I'm an Android software developer and even that is a real pain in the arse sometimes.

The iPhone however is 1 device, uniform(More or less) with the same dock connector and software that works the same on all hardware.

[TheSpiderMind]

@MadGoat USB is standard on andriod, the IO is taken care of. There is also bluetooth 3, with its reduced latency.

As the hardware continues to improve, I would bet most/all new phones would have the horsepower to run it. Never say never.

In fact, my Vibrant is already power powerful than an Iphone 4, processing wise.

of course, no one will switch phones and switch to AT&T for the benefit of this product.

[MadGoat]

@TheSpiderMind I guess what I'm referring to is outward design. With the iPhone you have a few designs, it's much easier to design a dock that will accommodate these few variables. With the Android phones, you have a huge variance in phone designs, thick, thin, sliders, flip phones, USB on the bottom, USB on the side, etc... That's the first problem when it comes to designing hardware attachments for android phones.

Second is software design. I'll continue in a separate post.

[MadGoat]

@MadGoat Continued... with the iPhone, it's 2 models to worry about (3Gs and 4. The 3G isn't as prevalent anymore). so if it runs great on my 2 test models, it'll run great on almost all of them.

With Android, I've had to dumb down a lot of features in my apps since the App might right like a dream on the Galaxy S, most people don't get those, they get the free on contract phones (Read: Really slow and crappy) I have 2 Androids and there's such a variance between the 2.

[DJidein]

can you use other musical apps with this midicontroller?

[fmarkow]

@DJidein NanoStudio is now compatible!
