A few things to celebrate

OK, it's not world peace, a cure for cancer, end of famine, or anything really important. But on a more personal level this weeks highlights include:

  • One-year anniversary of Skrivarna Software's first app on the Android Market.
  • 50.000 downloads of the VL-Tone Synth app.
  • 100.000 downloads in total. (Well, actually that probably happened some week ago, but I missed it. This week the total number of downloads is more like 110.000!)
  • Release of the Fakebook app, Skrivarna's most ambitious project so far.

To celebrate this, Fakebook will be available for an incredible low introductory price, the minimum allowed on the Amazon Appstore. Yes, Fakebook is submitted for approval to Amazon and will premiere there. Keep an eye open there or on this site, and I'll let you know when it is available for download.

What it is? Well, for those that will be interested in using the app, I guess the name and the icon says it all.

A Merrier Christmas with a new Fakebook Pro

Just in time for Christmas, there is now a new release of the Fakebook Pro music reader app available on Google Play and Amazon : Double tap screen to go to the next song (a single tap still moves to next or previous page). New control to make photo or PDF black & white and increase contrast. Perfect when using the mobile or tablet camera to scan paper music! Metronome tempo now shown in list and music header. New symbols on chord keyboard. Plus, a few important bug fixes for key/pedal mapping and annotations on some devices. Available now! Merry Christmas!

Check out the new Stomp pedal with Fakebook Pro

As a gigging musician your hands should be focused on playing music. Not turning pages. While your Fakebook Pro app made it easier to carry your charts and lyrics, you still have to take your hands off of your instrument to change pages. Unless you get a wireless pedal, of course. The Stomp pedal is a rugged, durable, and reliable app controller, making it the obvious choice for professionals and hobbyists alike. Stomp is housed in a solid metal enclosure, rugged enough to be run over by a truck, so it will handle any gig, night after night. Just throw it in your bag or attach it to your pedalboard and go off to the next gig. Stomp uses Bluetooth 4.0 and is tested compatible with the Fakebook Pro app. Check it out at https://codamusictech.com/products/bluetooth-page-turner-music-pedal-for-tablets  .

Finally! Started to write a Fakebook Pro Manual...

OK, I know this should have been done a long time ago. But, as most developers, I tend to avoid writing user manuals and other documentation. ("The software is sooo easy to use anyway", "That feature is self-explanatory, isn't it?") Well, now I have at least started. If you want to have a sneak preview on a very early alpha version (there are a lot of empty sections at the end...), please have a look here:  Fakebook Pro Manual 3.3 alpha
