Re: Accessible piano apps for iPhone
Thank you sir and I had forgotten I sent you the note. :) I might just have to purchase this since the developer is obviously interested in making it accessible.

Re: Accessible piano apps for iPhone
Hey scott, I must have missed your email. Morphwiz is accessible in a sense - I don't think all the features are accessible, but its useable to the point where its worth the purchase plus as I said, the developer is working with a friend to make it vo friendly although I don't have a time scale as to when this will be completed. If you have the device in landscape, there are 2 buttons on the bottom left of the screen - the left most one goes back an instrument where as the one on the right moves forward. It's more of a toy at the moment since in most cases you don't get access to all the notes in a conventional scale, but once it's made accessible you should be able to change this. I'm glad I bought it though - it's just a bit of fun plus jordan rudess is amazing.

Re: Accessible piano apps for iPhone
Benn, How accessible is this currently and how soon does he plan on making it fully accessible? I'm really curious about this and I just might drop the $10. I'm a bassist and probably more a hack then a real musician, :), but this sounds like something I could use for entertainment and actually working on some ideas I have floating around in my brain. Any other bits about the app you like to share, please feel free here or directly to me at scottn3...@gmail.com.

Re: Accessible piano apps for iPhone
Most, infact all of these instrument apps require vo to be off, unless you tripple tap to emulate a normal single tap.

Re: Accessible piano apps for iPhone
There is also an app called Accordio. It's a piano style accordion, but it isn't VO accessible. If you triple click, it will work nicely though. I have it, and I play the little accordion on my iPod Touch all the time. I'm also totally blind, and it doesn't present too much of a problem. If you hold the iPhone to with the home button facing your chest, the chord buttons will be on your left and the piano keys will be on the right.

Re: Accessible piano apps for iPhone
Wow thumbjam sounds amazing! I have to try this one out. Plus there's an app called cosmobox or something like that. its a synthesizer that you can adjust tempo and the scale for. I've read that's accessible but thumbjam looks more like what i was looking for. Sonnia wrote: > I enjoy playing musical instruments, like the piano.

Re: Accessible piano apps for iPhone
Cool, gonna check this one out, I was gonna suggest just triple clicking the home button to deactivate VO whilst you hit the ivory keys on the iPhone and then triple clicking again when you are finished. But if there is already a VO happy app, then even better! On 27 Jul 2010, at 23:45, joseph wrote: > Hi Sonnia > > like you i like to play a musical instrument.
