IPhone Fwd: News from Intua: upcoming BeatMaker 1.3 update

[Andy Tarpinian]

A huge update, amazing how they answered just about everyones wish  
list, you never see that happen with the big boys. Some of my favs-

Pattern length, resolution, and sequencing of note pitch, mic recording.

Great, now to make sample sets with the mopho and jomox. Plus noise io  
and korg ds-10. This is getting intresting. :)
