iClassics Productions Anniversary: Sherlock Holmes Free for Limited Time
A new article has been published at prMac.
iClassics Productions Anniversary: Sherlock Holmes Free for Limited Time - Published on 11/11/16
In celebrating its two-year anniversary, iClassics Productions makes the Interactive Adventures of Sherlock Holmes free for a limited time. This adaptation of the renowned detective allows the reader to interact with the mystery using all five of their senses. The app offers a unique interactive reading experience enriched with illustrations, sounds effects, animation and an original soundtrack. This fully-updated app now features The Sherlock Holmes Stickers, adapted for the iOS 10.
Barcelona, Spain - iClassics Productions is very pleased to make the Interactive Adventures of Sherlock Holmes free for a limited time. This is to celebrate their two-year anniversary, in which short time they have staggeringly managed to produce nine incredible, immersive and interactive apps from a range of authors.
One of such authors happens to be Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and The Interactive Adventures of Sherlock Holmes contains the entire and original text of the famous "A Scandal in Bohemia." This is a fully-updated app, which now features The Sherlock Holmes Stickers, adapted for the iOS 10.
In contrast to many other iClassics, which contain three or four short stories from the author, this app features one longer story, separated into three chapters. This means that it can be considered as a feature-length app, providing almost an hour of "immersive reading" entertainment. Moreover, the text is available in four languages, which can be changed at any moment of the story: English, French, Spanish and Portuguese.
The text of this classic tale is enriched with artistic illustrations, animations, interactive elements, and original sound effects and music. All of this combined constitutes a new reading concept that iClassics Productions has been working towards: Literature 3.0 (Immersive Reading).
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle managed to create the most famous detective in fictional history, whose legendary status arguably transcends the fame of the writer himself. Set in grey and grimy London, and filled with fog and mystery, A Scandal in Bohemia is read like never before. Brought to life with imagery, movement, sound and interactivity, readers are plunged into the mind of one of the sharpest detectives ever invented as he discerns nuances most people overlook. Feel your way through the fog of old London, and walk alongside the most memorable creation in detective literature's history.
A Scandal in Bohemia is the perfect story to be adapted for the Literature 3.0 format, allowing for total immersion and extensive interaction. Illustrated to an incredibly high and artistic standard by Jordi Solano, directed by David G. Fores, and brought to life by the animation team, this is an extremely high quality, sophisticated and artistic app.
Highlights:
* An hour of interactive stories
* Available in 4 languages: English, Spanish, French and Portuguese
* 1 whole story in 3 chapters
* More than 50 illustrations, 65 animations and 70 interactive pages
* Illustrated by Jordi Solano and directed by David G. Fores
* Over 25 minutes of Original Soundtrack by Miquel Tejada
* Sir Arthur Conan Doyle biography and Sketchbook by Jordi Solano
* New! - Sherlock Holmes Stickers, adapted for iOS 10
* Original tale from the writer - no cuts, no adaptations
* Extras
The Interactive Adventures of Sherlock Holmes should be stolen while it's free! Just watch out for Sherlock!
5* Reviews:
"You'll see what Sherlock and Watson both see - the details, their plans, even the mannerisms described in the book - and without much (if any) artistic embellishment whatsoever!! The makers of this specific app need to produce many, many more of Doyle's famed stories, post haste!"
"The cleverest app I've encountered! I don't know how I found this, but I'm happy I did. Really clever and an enjoyable experience. I'll be buying more of the series."
"As an 8th grade teacher, I use Sherlock Holmes stories in my lessons, and this has made a very large impact in how my students comprehend and interact with the literature. I am forever indebted to the efforts that the iClassics team has put forth to make literature truly come alive."

TunesKit Studio unveils new DRM Removal Solution for Audible Books
A new article has been published at prMac.
TunesKit Studio unveils new DRM Removal Solution for Audible Books - Published on 11/11/16
UK based TunesKit Studio today announces the official launch of TunesKit Audible Converter, a new DRM cracker for Macintosh and Windows. This innovative new application can easily remove DRM from any Audible audio book by converting AA, AAX files to unprotected formats without account authorization. TunesKit DRM Audible Converter also allows users to choose lossless audio as output by retaining existing parameters like audio codec, channel, bit rate, sample rate, and more.
London, United Kingdom - TunesKit Studio today is proud to announce the official launch of TunesKit Audible Converter, a new DRM cracker for Macintosh and Windows. Unlike its existing Audiobook Converter, and other common Audible audiobook converters that require users to install iTunes to authorize their Audible account before conversion, this innovative new application can easily remove DRM from any Audible audio book by converting the AA, AAX files to unprotected MP3, AAC, M4A, or FLAC formats without account authorization. The conversion speed is up to 100X faster than any other Audible audiobook converters in the market.
Developed exclusively for Audible users, this unique solution makes removing the DRM code from Audible audiobooks easier than ever. Anyone can use TunesKit Audible Converter without any DRM knowledge necessary. Thanks to the advanced DRM decrypting processor adopted by TunesKit Audible Converter, this smart audiobook conversion tool is capable of stripping DRM from audiobooks downloaded from Audible as well as converting existing DRM-locked formats from AA, AAX to common MP3, M4A, M4B, FLAC, AAC, OGG, AIFF, APE, FLAC, WMA, WAV, M4R, MKA, AU, etc. with original metadata, ID3 tags and chapters preserved.
In addition to those popular audio formats, TunesKit DRM Audible Converter also allows users to choose lossless audio as output by retaining the parameters like audio codec, channel, bit rate, sample rate, and more - exactly the same as original audiobooks. What's more, it supports audio splitting - users can split a large audiobook into smaller segments according to their own requirements either by time frame or chapters while converting the DRM-ed Audible books.
Another advantage of TunesKit Audible Audiobook Converter over other programs is the super speedy conversion at 100X. Since it doesn't need to work together with iTunes or any other extra hardware or virtual CD driver, it will convert the hours-long DRM-ed Audible audiobooks within a few seconds only.
TunesKit Audible Converter is available for both Mac and Windows platforms. It's fully compatible with the latest macOS Sierra 10.12 and OS X 10.8 or later, and Windows 10, 8, 7, Vista, XP as well. It will get frequent updates to support every new upcoming release of computer system and Audible DRM technology afterwards.

AC Sabre Offers Sophisticated, Gestural MIDI Control with iOS Devices
A new article has been published at prMac.
AC Sabre Offers Sophisticated, Gestural MIDI Control with iOS Devices - Published on 11/11/16
London-based, technology studio, Air Craft Media Ltd announces AC Sabre MIDI Instrument & Motion Controller 1.0.1, their new and innovative music composition app for iOS devices. AC Sabre offers electronic music producers, composers, performers and DJs the ability to control music in a way that isn't available from traditional studio and stage tools. AC Sabre offers the expressiveness of the ROLI Seaboard and gestural versatility of MiMu gloves for a tiny fraction of their cost.
London, United Kingdom - Air Craft Media Ltd is proud to announce the release and immediate availability of AC Sabre MIDI Instrument & Motion Controller 1.0.1, their revolutionary new music composition app for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch devices. The app makes it easy for music producers, composers, DJs, and other performers to control their music in a way never before possible.
AC Sabre allows performers to push the boundaries of their craft. Producers can make use of the app to compose distinctive hooks that go beyond the normal MIDI keyboard, conduct automation in realtime, and add sophisticated musical elements without the need for long years of theory and training. DJs and performers can play electronic instruments without the need to stay shackled to their gear, adding spontaneity to their live performances. The app makes it easy for artists to infuse their performances with their own signature attitude and style.
"While sound technology has been evolving steadily over the last 30+ years, the tools we use to engage with them, such as keyboards, knobs, faders, etc. haven't changed fundamentally since the early 80s," says Hari Karam Singh, Founder of Air Craft. "It is time for a new generation of instruments to expand the possibilities for composing and performing, and to realize the full potential of our modern music production libraries. AC Sabre is just such an instrument!"
AC Sabre uses an iOS device's built-in gyroscope and accelerometer, and translates them into musical actions. The app allows performers to control their music intuitively with their movements. Notes are triggered via invisible strings that can literally be "plucked" in mid-air, while users also have the ability to control 7 additional parameters via MIDI CC messages. This combination results in a level of nuance and expression not achievable by the current tools of studio and stage.
While AC Sabre doesn't include any sounds of its own, users can use their computer and music software or other apps that support MIDI input, such as Ableton Live, Logic, Garage Band, Massive, Kontakt, Sylenth, Animoog, Nave, and others.
AC Sabre's rich musical vocabulary features include:
* Scale-synced, velocity sensitive note play
* Harmonies, trills, arpeggios
* Gesture-based vibrato
* Note shift (for playing out-of-scale notes)
* Circle of Fourths/Fifths key changes
* Note range and octave shift
* Legato and Portamento modes
* Note-clamping pitchbend
* A Drone for sustain and guitar tapping-style effects
The app combines specially developed unique algorithms with the sensitive and responsive gyroscope and accelerometer built into Apple's iOS devices to offer added depth and sensitivity to any musical composition. Making use of the device's wireless connectivity and innate mobility, AC Sabre creates totally new possibilities for live performances that are completely unbound form their usual confinement to laptops and mixing desks.
AC Sabre is honed for professional use:
* Low latency (<10ms), 50m+ range via Wi-Fi
* QuickPanels allow realtime access to most common parameters
* Save/load/export configuration Patches
* Wi-Fi/Bluetooth support & Bonjour auto-detect
* Supports multiple devices running AC Sabre as separate MIDI inputs into your DAW
* MIDI Learn wizard for quick CC assignment
* MIDI channel selector for playing multiple instruments
While AC Sabre's rich palette of musical techniques makes it perfect for professional use, the app's guided setup helps even beginners to easily get the hang of using the with their own personal equipment. The app also walks users on how to use the app, explaining the operation of the app with easy to follow instructional screens. Musicians of all skill levels can be up and performing without the typically long learning curve of traditional instruments. AC Sabre also offers serious users the ability to customize their performance and control techniques.
The app offers powerful expressive control, with six assignable motion controls. Pitch, roll & yaw angels, play intensity, configurable touch ribbons, a configurable user button, as well as vibrato on shake are all available. It can handle over 150 musical scales, with major, minor and pentatonics. Also included are Jazz modes, Exotic scales such as Bebop Dominant, Octonic, Nine-tone scale, Arpeggio scales, Bassline scales, and a large selection of Indian Raag scales.
"Modern synths have dozens of dimensions of tweakability. It has always frustrated me that there weren't better methods for taking advantage of this sonic versatility," continues Hari. "The key here is that the way you play a note, rather than just the note itself, affects the output and this expressiveness becomes part of your signature sound."
Reviewers Love AC Sabre:
"I had to check AC Sabre out and it immediately lived up to the hype... surreal and instinctive, like Augmented Reality." - Discchord
"Every now and then an app comes along that you really think is going to change how things work. It doesn't happen often. But, I think that this is it." - PalmSounds.net
Note: AC Sabre is high performance application that requires at least an iPhone 4s, (iPhone 5 or higher recommended), iPod touch 5th generation or newer, running iOS 8.1 or higher. While playing on the app is especially tailored more for smaller handheld devices like the iPhone, the app works splendidly on the iPad. Windows users will also need a copy of rtpMIDI for connecting AC Sabre to their computer. rtpMIDI is freely available on the Internet.
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 9.0 or later
* Universal Application
* 24.6 MB
Pricing and Availability:
AC Sabre MIDI Instrument & Motion Controller 1.0.1 is only $12.99 (USD), and is available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Music category. Review copies are available upon request.

Producers can make use of the app to compose distinctive hooks that go beyond the normal MIDI keyboard, conduct automation in realtime, and add sophisticated musical elements without the need for long years of theory and training. DJs and performers can play electronic instruments without the need to stay shackled to their gear, adding spontaneity to their live performances. The app makes it easy for artists to infuse their performances with their own signature attitude and style.
"While sound technology has been evolving steadily over the last 30+ years, the tools we use to engage with them, such as keyboards, knobs, faders, etc. haven't changed fundamentally since the early 80s," says Hari Karam Singh, Founder of Air Craft. "It is time for a new generation of instruments to expand the possibilities for composing and performing, and to realize the full potential of our modern music production libraries. AC Sabre is just such an instrument!"
AC Sabre uses an iOS device's built-in gyroscope and accelerometer, and translates them into musical actions. The app allows performers to control their music intuitively with their movements. Notes are triggered via invisible strings that can literally be "plucked" in mid-air, while users also have the ability to control 7 additional parameters via MIDI CC messages. This combination results in a level of nuance and expression not achievable by the current tools of studio and stage.
While AC Sabre doesn't include any sounds of its own, users can use their computer and music software or other apps that support MIDI input, such as Ableton Live, Logic, Garage Band, Massive, Kontakt, Sylenth, Animoog, Nave, and others.
AC Sabre's rich musical vocabulary features include:
* Scale-synced, velocity sensitive note play
* Harmonies, trills, arpeggios
* Gesture-based vibrato
* Note shift (for playing out-of-scale notes)
* Circle of Fourths/Fifths key changes
* Note range and octave shift
* Legato and Portamento modes
* Note-clamping pitchbend
* A Drone for sustain and guitar tapping-style effects
The app combines specially developed unique algorithms with the sensitive and responsive gyroscope and accelerometer built into Apple's iOS devices to offer added depth and sensitivity to any musical composition. Making use of the device's wireless connectivity and innate mobility, AC Sabre creates totally new possibilities for live performances that are completely unbound form their usual confinement to laptops and mixing desks.
AC Sabre is honed for professional use:
* Low latency (<10ms), 50m+ range via Wi-Fi
* QuickPanels allow realtime access to most common parameters
* Save/load/export configuration Patches
* Wi-Fi/Bluetooth support & Bonjour auto-detect
* Supports multiple devices running AC Sabre as separate MIDI inputs into your DAW
* MIDI Learn wizard for quick CC assignment
* MIDI channel selector for playing multiple instruments
While AC Sabre's rich palette of musical techniques makes it perfect for professional use, the app's guided setup helps even beginners to easily get the hang of using the with their own personal equipment. The app also walks users on how to use the app, explaining the operation of the app with easy to follow instructional screens. Musicians of all skill levels can be up and performing without the typically long learning curve of traditional instruments. AC Sabre also offers serious users the ability to customize their performance and control techniques.
The app offers powerful expressive control, with six assignable motion controls. Pitch, roll & yaw angels, play intensity, configurable touch ribbons, a configurable user button, as well as vibrato on shake are all available. It can handle over 150 musical scales, with major, minor and pentatonics. Also included are Jazz modes, Exotic scales such as Bebop Dominant, Octonic, Nine-tone scale, Arpeggio scales, Bassline scales, and a large selection of Indian Raag scales.
"Modern synths have dozens of dimensions of tweakability. It has always frustrated me that there weren't better methods for taking advantage of this sonic versatility," continues Hari. "The key here is that the way you play a note, rather than just the note itself, affects the output and this expressiveness becomes part of your signature sound."
