Voice Band introduces a revolutionary new way to make music - with your voice!
Just sing into your phone and hear Voice Band transform your voice into an instrument in real time. Voice Band doesn't simply alter your voice to sound
like an instrument, it actually plays a real sampled instrument which follows what you sing. Want to jam to a guitar solo with your favorite band? Voice
Band lets you play along with your ipod library, too.
Whether you’re a musician looking to instantly capture an arrangement idea, or a music fan looking to make your own music for the first time, Voice Band
will inspire and challenge you.
NOTE: Like any musical instrument, Voice Band works better with practice. If you consider yourself non-musical you can still have lots of fun with Voice
Band as you continue to expand your musical talent! For help in getting the most from Voice Band, check out our tutorial videos.
Imagine creating an entire song with only your voice!
Voice Band features a recorder which lets you build a song, one instrument at a time. Auto pitch mode helps you stay on key, and if you're a musician,
you'll appreciate the adjustable scale and metronome. Voice Band also includes a
built-in effects processor with distortion, reverb, and delay.

Requirements
- An iPhone 4 or 3GS is strongly recommended to reduce the processing delay that can interfere with accurate instrument control.

Voice Band Accessibiltiy Update
instruments
I can't seem to figure out how I changed from guitar to drums. Are the drums the only instruments that actually come without buying other instruments?
I know I had a guitar on here some place!
Thanks to anyone who replies.
Podcast
I listened to the podcast made about this app and figured out how to record an pan audio. But how do you change the pitch of the audio? There are octave plus and minus buttons but pressing them accomplishes nothing.
