SonifiCurrent Version: 1.0

Remix, Record, Control dynamic live FX & beautiful visualizers

AND Stutter Edit™....

LIVE.

Create and explore stunning live remixes, FX and visuals with a true first-of-it’s-kind portable remix engine. Sonifi™ is the world’s first true audio and visual remix application and protocol. Created by electronic superstar BT, this application showcases futuristic new music and remixes of The Rose of Jericho from his forthcoming 2009 artist album.

Sonifi™ is a powerful, portable, real-time remix engine. There are an infinite number of permutations of remixes you can create, mix, save and share....live, and anywhere!!

For iPhone and iPod touch 3.0 users, a revolutionary new multi-player feature has been added. Jam Link gives 3.0 users the ability to link with a friend (via Bluetooth) and remix live....TOGETHER. The mixmaster selects control over "Beats and Bass" or "Melody and Harmony". Once JamLinked you and your buddy can remix, select tracks and Stutter Edit™ live. This is a first for any application, on any device. Jam Link is compatible with iPhone 3G, iPhone 3G S and iPod touch (2nd generation).

In Sonifi™, four channels of four unique tracks allow extreme flexibility and remix possibilities. The (4x4 matrix of) tracks can be mixed, muted or soloed and contain four completely unique elements and arrangements per-channel. There are four tracks of ripping beats to choose from, four tracks of fat bass lines, four tracks of glitchy synths and FX, and four tracks of cutting edge melodies.

Everything in Sonifi™ happens in-time and on-beat; so making a mix is both fun and effortless. If you are a musician or DJ the sky is the limit! Currently, three discrete real time effects are controllable using the X/Y axis of the iPhone or iPod touch screen :  Lo-Fi, resonant high pass filter, and resonant low pass filter. 

There are mesmerizing visual elements that respond elegantly to user touch as well as the frequency and amplitude information of your remix. You are not just remixing, you're visualizing what you are creating.

Finally, Sonifi™ contains BT's patented Stutter Edit™ technology and is the first application to showcase to its abilities. Instead of using a mouse, USB device, or other input peripheral (like you would with a computer), your phone becomes an instrument!! Simply shake the phone in one of six vectorial directions (left, right, forward, backward, up, or down) and at the next 1/8th note the Stutter Edit plugin will perform an incredible micro-note or fill pattern repeat, some with release crashes and hits. Basically, you shake your phone and sound like a genius.

Endless fun ensues!

Planned upgrades will include downloadable Sonifi™ media packs containing other artists songs and remixes, new visualizer elements and band & artist links.

Let the live remixing BEGIN!!

Sonifi Review

Create your own techno mix—whether you have musical talent or not

Sonifi from Sonik Architects puts you in the DJ’s seat with some simple tools that allow you to remix techno music like a pro. Everything is done through the accelerometer and touch controls of the iPhone and second-generation iPod touch so that anyone can create their own mix—whether they have musical talent or not.


Put the ‘Tech’ in ‘Techno’: Take different tracks from Sonifi’s four channels to create a hopping techno mix.
Sonifi has four channels (Lead, Synth/FX, Bass line and Beats) each containing four different tracks that you can mix. When you tap a track, Sonifi will automatically start playing it at the next beat count so you don’t need to have impeccable timing like a professional DJ. You can also mute each channel by simply sliding your finger across it.

Sonifi lets you easily add stutter effects to your mix by shaking the device in one of six directions—left, right, forward, backward, up, or down. This will add an effect at the next 1/8-note to make for a sweet transition into the next phase of your remix. There are also lofi, lowpass, and highpass filters you can use to great effect by dragging your finger around the screen which has stunning visualizations that react to the music as well as touch.

All remixing is done in real time as the music plays, and you can record your mix to share with friends later. iPhone OS 3.0 users can even connect through Bluetooth to edit and remix together. Sonifi was a lot of fun to use and defiantly has a bright future.

Sonifi is compatible with any iPhone or second-generation iPod touch running the iPhone 3.0 update.
