Is there an app like imitone that translates voice realtime to midi. So something like imitone.

    What I understood iOS app is also in the making by imitone. But development is slow... very slow although the dev still communcates on the imitone forum so there's hope that the product will finally someday be out.
    Still I wonder why there's not been a dev that took the idea of realtime voice to midi to an iOS App. Think it could be really a bestseller :)

    There's more than one app:
    Midi Enabled - Virtual Midi Output by yongerp
    MIDI Voice Controller by Mark Carlotto
    HumOn - Simplest Music Maker by COOLJAMM
    Virsyn iVoxel

    Probably the best app by now, MidiMorphosis, isn't available on the AppStore anymore.

    Are those really any good?
    I am skeptical that they could do what is being demonstrated in the video, but maybe it is possible. I haven’t tried all of those, but the couple I tried were pretty bad.

    I have yet to find one that works good enough to be reliable in any context.
    Currently the best bet could be learning to build Puredata patches and have MobMuPlat translate live audio to MIDI notes and pitch bend messages or quantized to a note scale.
    MobMuPlat is free, supports IAA audio and MIDI and all you need is time and a bit of curiosity.

    ThumbJam will do it also.... it works pretty well for voice input. Plus you can quantize to any scale in TJ, but more importantly you can use it unquantized so it continuously tracks your actual voice using pitch bends to avoid the unnatural results from those demos in that video. Some of the other ones on that list can do this also.

    You’ll find it buried in the sidebar with a button that looks like a mic with notes.

    Cool! What kind of MIDI messages will it send? Pitch bend too?

  • sonosaurussonosaurus

    Yes, it will send notes and pitch bend, as well as optional channel pressure or poly pressure for level. Need to mess with the midi settings for that last bit.

    Wow. ThumbJam is still one of the very remarkable apps since years.
    If you managed to give DrumJam an AUv3 update or release a new similar app with IAA, AB3 and AUv3 support, I'm sure it's going to be received very well.

    Thanks for the info sounds @rs2000 says: Wow!

    Thumbjam was one of my first iOS purchases 5 or 6 years ago. Still one of the best.

    I forgot TJ does this, again! :D
    That app always comes through, so many ways to use it.
    An all time great, most definitely.

    Another vote for ThumbJam. For the exact scenario mentioned in that imitone video ThumbJam performs exceptionally well. Pitch bend, velocity, scale lock, transpose, it is all there and works great with voice input.
