Turn your mobile device into a musical washboard! You can play the classic metal washboard as is, or customize it by adding instruments like horns and woodblocks in any combination. You can even add decorations like a flower, a sticker or party lights. Play along with your iPod music, or plug into an amp and join a jug band!Some reviews say the app doesn't sound like a washboard, but it does use audio samples taken from a real washboard. The samples come from a metal board played with 1" zinc washers -- this gives a sound harder than thimbles but softer than spoons -- and include a tap, scrub and wood sound. The add-on instruments also use real audio samples. Instruments include:- Small cowbell- Large cowbell- Small horn- Large horn- Tambourine- Cymbal- Small woodblock- Large woodblock- Service bell- Vibraslap- Toy chickenDecorations (no sound) include:- Toy dinosaur- Flower- Bow tie- Hula girl- Woody Guthrie sticker- Party lightsIf you have any MIDI equipment, you can also use Washboard as a MIDI controller. Map each instrument in the app to a note number in your sound module, then tap the board or attached instruments to send note-on commands. The MIDI commands are sent on channel 10 for easy access to most percussion modules.Before buying this app, I recommend watching the demo video at washboardapp.com to see how it works.
