Aurora – pixel based music synthesizer for Windows Mobile

Not being a musician, I must admit I don’t quite understand this application, but the music synthesizer appears pretty cool, and the narrator’s voice is also pretty hypnotic.

Here is 4Pockets.com’s write-up of this rather expensive$44.95 application:

Whether you are an experienced musician or don’t have a musical bone in your body, you can make great music on your Pocket PC.

Aurora is our pattern based musical sequencing software for the Pocket PC. By simply choosing a musical scale every note you play is in perfect tune, leaving you to make your own great sounding music.

If you are a more accomplished musician you simply switch Aurora to advanced mode and you get full control over the built in instruments and effects, as well as many advanced modes such as the Atomizer and XY Mode which allows you to manipulate sound in real-time. You can create your own instrument from recordings made using the built in microphone. Just think, a full drum kit of you beatboxing into the microphone!

Aurora allows a mixture of pattern based recording and live performance. You can piece together complete compositions or simply improvise a performance. All of which can be captured to a file, for use as a ringtones, or to share with others.

An integrated mixer, combined with the ability to add audio effects and layer automation means that you achieve a sophisticated sound in a fun and user friendly way.

Thankfully the app comes with a free trial, which can be accessed at 4Pockets.com here.
