Yeah, you can chop, sample, mix, effects, and just about anything else you can do with a full sized drum machine. I know this is an extremely complex app, so chances are, we're SOL. but here's to wishful thinkin!!!

Yes this could be good, plug your TP into a mixer, brings a whole new capability to the device.
I also think though, that to port such an app would be an enormous task.
+1 on wishful thinking

Close thread
I think it's safe to say we can go ahead & close this thread. It's not getting too much interest, so i'm assuming it's either damn near impossible to port, or none of the dev's are really willing to give it a shot. Hopefully someone will drop a similar program from WM.

can somebody please port this i need this in my life.

People People...Look
You people have to Do your homework there is ton's on ppc Recording Studio Apps a big one is Called phoenix Studios /you have pocket music Studios/you have pocket jamz/ So go look them up

no my friend... while these are all nice apps, they are NOT beat maker. None of the afore mentioned apps have a full functioning drum machine built into it. Not to mention, NONE of the apps allow for 3rd party plug-ins like Pro-Tools export, rewire, t-racks, etc. Beat Maker is the real deal. I'm seriously debating buying a iTouch SIMPLY for this app!!

Maybe you should contact the maker of the App and see if he would port it himself. Maybe he's already making a WM version to sell on the Windows Marketplace.
For the record, I would also be willing to pay to get a port of this app.

damn, why on EARTH didn't i think of this myself?! i might have to look into this.

i have this app "phoenix Studios" and i love it but its not vga and i stop using it because i didnt have enought memory to keep it going on my old ppc6700.
i almost got an iphone just to get that drum machine apps.

Wouldn't the fact that Raphaels do not have a capacitive touchscreen really hinder this Apps original functionality/awesomeness?
Our touch screens are resistive, and are thus incapable of multitouch like an iphone or g1 for example. (I have seen a demo of multitouch on a supposedly resistive screen around on the nets, but never seen a resistive device with multitouch capabilities released) http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/19/stantums-mind-blowing-multitouch-interface-on-video/ here's the vid
Just a thought, hope your dreams aren't too dashed.

no need to multitap and such.. we just gotta contact the maker of beatmaker and see if hes brewing a version for WM6.1 platforms!

so is this thing ported yet?

Omniano the Band, is the closest thing to date. The other would be Little Snazzy Drummer, which has a free Lite version as well as a paid version. Neither of these are quite as complex as the app. you mentioned, though I find them both very usable and entertaining.

"...There's an app for that."

I have seen alot of iphone commercials on tv and the "there's an app for that" commercials bother me because I know that there are android programs that can do exactly the same thing. So I thought it was time for a thread where we list the iphone app and the android app that serves the same purpose. Ready? Let's Go

It's a shame there isn't any real advertising standards, or they aren't upheld in the US, there is so many lies I've more or less given up being annoyed about it any more.
Apple has already had advertising yanked off UK TV because the govt body said that it wasn't truthful.

What? You mean that I have the real, not watered down, not mobile internet...but no flash? I am always a little happy when the UK takes Apple to task for false advertising. It makes me feel warm and happy...lol

How about instead of "...there's an app for that" we put together "there's not an app for that, unless you have android..."
For instance:
Metal Detector
Overclock Widget
Home screen replacements
Iphone users feel free to chime in with "but I can use -appname- to do that"

i'm waiting for Trapster, so i can finally say...There's an app for that haha

I can block ads on my phone with AdFree, I can run apps in the background, the app I'm running doesn't get killed because of an incoming phone call.

As one of my co-workers who abandoned an iPhone and got a G1 after he saw mine......
"Yeah, there's an app for that.....only it doesn't cost anything on Android."

rofl yeah the only place the i phone as us beats is the games. but emulators are changing that i my opinion.

Iphone interface?
Theres an app for that.

I showed Nesroid to an iPhone user of a coworker a couple weeks ago and he said "that emulator runs better than mine."

You forgot... "We have a keyboard for that to "

Considering the actual OS is built on top of BSD, does that mean BSD is the worlds most advanced operating system?

Actually does anyone know if there is an app that can hook into a desktop PC/laptop and you can use the keyboard on it to type into the GUI on android?

Exactly. It just annoys me so much that they are actually allowed to say that. I will never get locked into Apple's business model like that. When people told me they had to 'learn' Facebook's layout I laughed.

I actually ripped the hardware keyboard from my dad's old Ericsson PDA. I'm working on getting that compatible with Android.
Both OSs have a gameboy emulator

windows mobile users dont really have an image. I think it is because you hardly see any in real life. Most phones are supporting android/blackberry/ios. I know one person who still has a WM device (HD2) and I tell him to put android on it all the time. lol

That's just it, just about everyone I know IRL who wanted a Windows phone gave up when they couldn't find one they liked and just made the change to Android.
The last person I knew who had Windows mobile only kept it so long so he could keep his precious tethering (on edge no less since he had the Dash that wasn't 3G capable). I told him repeatedly that he could tether with android, but whenever he called the TMO store they said it wasn't possible. Finally I just disconnected his laptop from the web & tethered to prove to him it was possible.
Then, he went and (ignored my suggestion of phone) got a MyTouch Slide and is pretty happy with it. Whenever he finds something it can't do, I point him at a free app that'll take care of his problems.
So, in my experience, the Windows Mobile users image is that of people who just don't research and are afraid of change or were holding out hope for WP7 (which is another discussion for another time).

We're too busy getting on and using our phones to care
Honestly though, our typical view is probably similar to the typical android user, but not ginger
View ourselves maybe like Neo (with all that ROM hacking)
Viewed by iPhone users as some big scary moster, and by BB users as BB users are viewed by iPhone users, and by Android users as Old Father Time.

Needs one more column: How seen by xda developers!

Ha. Actually its the complete opposite. Windows mobile users had all the features that you are enjoying on your android device many years ago, just on fairly slow hardware and an unusable interface. You might want to look up how xda-developers started

Yes and Windows Mobile phones were the most hackable and customizable.
Then, as Microsoft seems to LOVE to do, they assumed they were #1 and no one could ever possibly make anything better, so they just stopped giving it the attention it deserved.
They then lagged behind the rest of the smart phone world. The users who still currently use them

Not trying to be insulting to the phones, but as you said, while revolutionary and groundbreaking, the phones themselves were almost impossible to use because of the horrible interface and slow hardware. By todays standards, the OS is lacking.
In a few years, I'll probably be saying the same about Android in its current incarnation.
Windows 95 was a game changer when it came out, but I think that anyone still using it has got to be pulling their hair out by now.
I know how xda started, I had an account long ago with an email that no longer exists & a password long since forgotten

hahahah this is great!!

Love it.
The first one with the baby is by far the best.

HELLO!!! Why Isnt There a WP7 Dialpad for Android?

why isnt there a wp7 dialpad for android that can replace the native android dialpad? and i dont mean one of those stupid apps in the market. i mean a package where you install and replce the android dialpad. its strange that people boast of how customizable android is. yet there isnt a wp7 dialpad for it.. this is VERY strange

youre right.. but since youre too intelligent to notice, the app that was suggested sucks and DOES NOT replace the current android dialpad. but of course, in your grandiose intelligence, you knew that.

Why did you bought Android device? You want WP7 buy a WP7 device. You didn't found android app you want? Make it or pay someone to make it...

I guess the closest you're gonna get to replacing the actual dialpad application would be flashing a new ROM?
MIUI has an awesome WP7 dialpad. Almost identical.

So you're at a club, and you're posting on xda? Cool...is it like the club from swordfish?

What phone do you have?

You post dumb questions, people reply with dumb answers. This is the internet. Get used to it.

Anyway, on a more helpful note, you wont find a wp7 dialer, you might find something that has some of the features, but not all. I use exDialer, which is exceptional seeing as its barely been in development for 2 months and is absolutely brilliant. You can ofcourse build your own theme which would mimick wp7 closer

Just install the wp7 phone app and delete the phone appear from the /system/app folder.
If you don't even know how to do this, DO NOT EVER TALK IN THAT MANNER.

Themes for Vista

Man I have been looking for themes for Vista and the only ones out there I can find want you to buy a third party app for $20 to install them on my laptop.
M$ site has zero themes for Vista even though you can change your theme where you personalize windows (right click desktop>personalize>themes)
I have googled enough to know that I need to patch Vista to allow third party themes but I am leary to do that when I know nothing about the sites I would be downloading from.
Just need a nudge in the right direction. Want to change the look of Winblows. Not just colors and background. Really kind of like to find an Android type theme.
Any help would be appreciated.
Running Vista Home Premium SP2
Considering going to 7 soon though and there appear to be a lot of themes for it out there but don't know if they need the third party app. M$ has like 4 themes.

Rainmeter (I think that's what it was called) my themeing days were 5 years ago, should've asked me then. Lol

In before teh lock?

Also, you can check on one of the boards on 4chan, I think it was wallpapers. There is usually a guide on how to theme desktops. That's where I learned my stuff from, and I had some crazy themes, and you couldn't tell it was any OS you know.
And before anyone says something, 4chan is a great site for many things. Its only looked down upon because of the /b/ board. And whatever you do, don't go to /b/, trust me, you won't be normal anymore. Not saying you are normal now, but you know what I mean.

Yes people still use it. It is a solid OS. And Windows 7 has been out long enough that it is getting near stable enough to switch over to so I will be migrating soon.
I hate that about the time Micro**** finally gets an OS working then they come out with a new one. Why not wait until the **** works right before releasing it?

Finally got around to playing with Rainmeter. Steep learning curve but fun to play with.
Here is my work in progress. This is a compilation of about 5 skins. Parts from here, from there. Then tailored in colors. The multi RSS feed was a PITA.
But it will evolve.
