iRecorder

THE WORLD'S FIRST "TOUCH AND BLOW" VIRTUAL MUSICAL INSTRUMENT APP.

NOTE: iRecorder will only work with the iPod using an external mic.

JUST BLOW 

Blow into the iPhone mic and experience the power of iRecorder. The harder you blow, the stonger the sound produced. It's just like the real thing.

In fact, we have replicated every aspect of a real recorder, including every note, key and hole.

LEARN HOW TO PLAY 

More than just a digital musical instrument, iRecorder actually helps you learn how to play the recorder.

To help users familiarize themselves with the fingerings, the notes are displayed on screen as they are played.

We plan to evolve iRecorder into a sophisticated learning device. We will also develop and enhance based on your ideas and feedback. Please try to keep feedback constructive and helpful.

This is currently a free app and we are trying to make everybody happy - beginners and musicians. Showing your support with a 5 star rating would be great!

INSTRUCTIONS 

On a real recorder, there is also a hole at the back. That can been replicated by pressing anywhere on the wooden background. We suggest using your left pinky finger for that.

Whilst doing so, cover the top hole (the one closest to the iPhone mic) with the index finger of your left hand. Your right thumb is not used for covering holes; it is used to support the phone.

Now blow gently into the iPhone mic. You should hear a 'B' and see a 'B' fading down the screen. This note is shown on a fingering chart as follows: 

B = 0 1-- ----

The 0 here represents your pinky finger that's touching the wooden background. The 1st hole from the bottom is numbered 1 and it is covered. All the other holes are open, so they are indicated by dashes.

Here are some more notes: 

A = 0 12- ---- (pinky, first and second finger of left hand) 

G = 0 123 ---- (pinky, first, second, third finger of left hand) 

C' = 0 -2- ---- (pinky, second finger of left hand) 

D' = - -2- ---- (just the second finger of left hand)

Suggested left handed tunes: 

'Mary had a little lamb' 

B A G A B B B, A A A, B D' D', B A G A B B B, A A B A G

GET YOUR RIGHT HAND INVOLVED 

To match the holes, the fingers of your right hand are numbered 4, 5, 6 and 7. Your right index finger is 4. Here are some notes:

E = 0 123 45-- (all left-hand holes, right first and second finger) 

D = 0 123 456- 

F# = 0 123 -56-

Suggested Tune: 

'Twinkle Twinkle little star' 

D D A A B B A, G G F# F# E E D

Notes F and C

F = 0 123 4-67 

C = 0 123 4567

Suggested Tune: 

'Auld Lang Syne' 

C F F F A G F G A F F A C' D'

NOTE: For best results connect your device to headphones or amplified speakers.

X-Plane Racing

This is X-Plane RACING, the FIRST-EVER X-Plane (for any platform, including desktop!) with timed race-courses that let you race against the computer, or your friends, in multiplayer-mode! This is the most polished and optimized version of X-Plane for iPhone yet, with a LOT of testing done on the AI and multiplayer modes!

Of course, as we always do with these types of features, we have also made multiplayer a FREE upgrade to ALL the X-Plane flavors... but we think it is the most FUN in RACING, where you can race through courses against your friends and compare times at the end!!!

So here is how it works: X-Plane RACING comes with 4 regions (for now.. of course we will add more in free upgrades, same as always) and 4 planes (for now.. of course we will add more in free upgrades, same as always) with a race course for each plane in each region... a total of 16 race-courses. These course are presented as 'highway-in-the-sky' 'hoops' that you fly though, racing against the clock, right alongside the AI plane. X-Plane RACING will show you the time through the course, and number of hoops missed, at the end of the race. Can you fly faster than the AI plane? Some courses race down river-valleys.. others through mountain ranges, other through clouds. Some through snow-covered rocky mountains, others through desert. My favorite is the F-15 course in Anchorage, Alaska... can you handle it? To our knowledge, this is the most realistic flight physics for any aerial racing sim ever done. Pulling these peppy WW-2 fighters, or massive jets, through the hoops in the Mach 0.5 to Mach 1.25 range at low altitude through mountains and canyons is... special.

Then, once you get the hang of racing against the computer, it is time for MULTIPLAYER: Race against your friends! Who can get through the courses fastest? Both of your times are tracked and posted. This works on both iPhone AND iPodTouch... you just need to be on the same wireless network for the phones to see each other.

Racing, you can choose from the:

F-4-U Corsair: A tricky hi-speed fighter of World-War-2. Being a tail-dragger landing gear configuration, it will be VERY tricky to land. You must land in a full-stall, nose-high attitude. (BE SURE TO HOLD FULL-AFT STICK ON THE TAKEOFF ROLL IN THIS PLANE TO HOLD THE TAILWHEEL DOWN FOR STEERING AUTHORITY).

P-51 Mustang: The premier fighter of World-War-2 .Being a tail-dragger landing gear configuration, it will be VERY tricky to land. You must land in a full-stall, nose-high attitude. (BE SURE TO HOLD FULL-AFT STICK ON THE TAKEOFF ROLL IN THIS PLANE TO HOLD THE TAILWHEEL DOWN FOR STEERING AUTHORITY).

F-4 Phantom: The King of the 'Jet-Age', this plane is amazing to take through the desert canyons at Mach 1.25.

F-15 Eagle: This powerful machine is the pinnacle of pilot-friendly jet-power... IF you can handle Mach 1.25 between the mountain peaks of Alaska... can you?

X-Plane Extreme

X-Plane Extreme is by far the most difficult X-Plane iPhone App I have ever coded.

This is because now we are really getting into the hard stuff: The tricky and demanding propulsion and flight-control systems that make X-Plane so complex.

NOW we are getting into flight-modeling that gets as tricky to manage as X-Plane for desktop, and the results show it: 

We have four of the most unusual, fast, maneuverable, or advanced planes ever made... EACH with it's own unique control systems that radically effect the way the plane handles, 

and how it must be flown. The F-22, B-1, B-2, and SR-71 with X-Plane Extreme are simply stunninlgy different to fly... much more so than any other planes for X-Plane.

We start with the F-22 Raptor. 

The Raptor is by far the most maneuverable and powerful fighter in the sky... nobody else comes remotely close. 

An interesting point of the Raptor is that the thrust vectors up and down to steer the craft. 

This lets the plane pitch the nose up and down with full authority even at zero speed, simply by vectoring the thrust. 

The F-22 can in fact hang motionless on the engines. But this comes at a cost: When you chop the power, you lose that lift and maneuverability! 

Can you handle the Raptor in all phases of flight, from 0 to 1,000 knots, and all power settings from idle to maximum?

We then move to the SR-71 Blackbird. 

This is the fastest airplane in the world, exceeding Mach-3, exceeding 70,000 feet. 

Managing this airplane is sort of like balancing 3 checkbooks at once: Can you work out the speed, altitude, and flight control to see well over Mach-3 at well over 70,000 feet, 

and still make it back to the airport and get stopped on the runway?

Now the B-1 'Bone' Bomber. 

The B-1 has almost full-span flaps, spoilers for roll control, and differentially-deflecting all-moving stabilators to aid in roll control. 

Despite the huge flaps and multiple roll controls, this huge ungainly bird still has terribly high stall speeds and limited roll rate due to it's high weight... 

if you can get this plane around the sky and down in one piece, you are doing well! 

We also have a new slider to complement the throttle, trim, flaps, and speedbrakes: WING SWEEP! 

Use this in the B-1... but only above 500 knots or you will go down like a lawn dart! You will eat dirt at 400 knots.

And finally the harbinger of the Apocalypse: The B-2 'Jet' Bomber: 

The B-2 has.. umm... no tail. At all. No vertical stabilizer. No horizontal stabilizer. And no flaps. 

Ailerons on the wingtips split open to add drag on the left or right side of the plane to give yaw-control! 

A fly-by-wire system coupled to multiple flight-control surfaces makes this airplane manageable, and really rather nice to fly.

>ALL<>

From Zero-Speed to Mach-3-plus, from surface to 100,000 feet, at the engineering-level of accuracy that X-Plane for desktop has... can you handle them?

As well, for the first on iPhone, we have OTHER planes. 

These other planes race though the mountains and canyons, supersonic in some cases, with realistic physics. 

Can you stick with them?

X-Plane 9

X-Plane 9.04 is here now.. YOU SHOULD GRAB IT FOR SURE! This is a the fourth free update, with plenty of improvements!

...And now on with the show! 

X-Plane for Mac, Windows, and Linux (www.X-Plane.com) is the most flexible and realistic flight simulator on the market for desktop personal computers. Using blade element theory for the most powerful and accurate flight model available for personal computers, and earning FAA certification for logging of flight time for pilots, X-Plane is the Gold Standard for accurate flight simulation, offering realism that is unmatched by any other simulator.

And now, thanks to the power of the iPhone and iPodTouch, X-Plane is available for these stunning little platforms. As in the full desktop version, X-Plane for iPhone lets you experiment with different times of day, weather, sky conditions, wind, turbulence and airplanes, all while flying the craft from various different views in the stunning terrain topography of Innsbruck, Austria, home to some of the most challenging mountains and topography for aviation.

We here at Laminar Research are still a bit shell-shocked at how powerful this little device is, and how much power in flight simulation can be stuffed into it... the power of X-Plane can now be had with you... anywhere.

X-Plane-Helicopter

Free update 9.05 is here now! This lets you have manual tail-rotor control if you like, by grabbing the tail-rotor slider at the bottom!

It seems that most of the negative reviews are from people that did not read the instructions on how to FLY this sim. Remember, as is stated every time you start the app: 

->The throttle is automatically controlled for you 

->You drag the collective DOWN to INCREASE pitch... a situation that is ergonomically the same as in real helos. 

Most of the negative reviews seem to come from people that will not READ these instructions, despite them being displayed every time the app is launched... so be sure to read the instructions! They are only about 4 sentences.

And now, on with the show! X-Plane Helicopter is a new version of X-Plane that lets you realistically fly Helicopters!

You get some very interesting birds to fly, including:

The Robinson R-22: The lightweight, efficient trainer. 

The Bell-206: The turbine-powered mainstay of the helicopter fleet. 

The BlackHawk: The massive military cargo and troop mover. 

The Sea King: The huge land/sea rescue helicopter.

These fascinating and varied machines are modeled very realistically, so the flight you get on the iPhone is actually almost as realistic as the full FAA-Certified flight-model used in X-Plane for desktop... You get almost all the flight-model realism of this certified sim: On your phone.

As well, the flight-area is the Grand Canyon, giving you amazing views as you fly your helos across (and into!) the various canyons and valleys, giving the most visually-stunning simulation we have yet released, with the most challenging and realistic flight-models we have produced for iPhone so far.

Now, a quick lesson: The COLLECTIVE control is on the LEFT of the iPhone screen... drag it DOWN GENTLY to INCREASE the pitch of the main rotor, thus causing the helo to lift. As you drag this collective down, you will notice that the throttle AUTOMATICALLY increases on the right side of the screen. This is because the throttle governor automatically increases the engine power to maintain the desired rotor RPM as you increase the load on the rotor by increasing the rotor pitch. This is how the real helicopters work, and how we simulate them on the iPhone.

The tail-rotor is controlled for you automatically, since your iPhone does not have any anti-torque pedals plugged into it. ;-)

If you are ready for the best scenery and most fascinating and challenging flight model available on the iPhone, then you are ready for X-Plane-Helicopter.

X-Plane-Airliner

This is X-Plane-Airliner, a new version of X-Plane for the iPhone that simulates Airliners and the relatively long-range, instrument-capable flying that they do.

X-Plane-Airliner comes with:

The Boeing 777: The gold standard for modern airliner design and efficiency. 

The Boeing 747: The big double-decker 4-engine classic Liner of the sky. 

The Airbus A-380: The largest airplane in the world, with fly-by-wire controls. 

The Boeing 787: The new carbon-fiber, high-bypass, ultra-efficient harbinger of the next wave of airline travel.

As well, X-Plane Airliner gives you control of throttle, flaps, speedbrakes, and trim, giving you much more control over these incredible machines than you can get in the regular X-Plane for iPhone.

In addition to the additional flight controls, the cockpit is a full glass EFIS system, with airspeed, heading, altitude, vertical speed, Mach number, DME, and HSI with localizer and glideslope displayed in the same manner as the real airliners. As well, a moving map glass display gives you complete situational awareness as you fly, as you find in the real airliners.

The regular X-Plane for iphone has 3 airports and 4 NAVAIDs, and a flight region of about 60 by 60 miles. With X-Plane-Airliner, you get 42 NAVAIDs, 98 airports, and about 60 by 180 miles to fly in! The flight region in X-Plane Airliner spans from San Diego clear up to Edwards Air Force Base! This large flying area, combined with the 98 airports and 42 NAVAIDs, lets you practice relatively longer flights in any weather, with glass-cockpit 'EFIS' instrumentation and moving maps in the cockpit to make it all easy as you fly the Big Birds across the scenic terrain of Southern California, enjoying the view if you like to do that, or in hardball IFR conditions, using the glass instrumentation to fly the airliners down to minimums in clouds and fog and turbulence at night... or anything in between.

This is by far the most powerful app we have released for the iPhone, and we are making it available cheap for now so that everyone can get it!
