I think there was a thread, or a tangent on a thread, but I can't find it, so..... What are the iPhone/iPad/iPod touch apps you have found useful for work? Not time killers, but actually useful. My phone is currently a Droid (till next iPhone is released), but I have an iPad too, so I might be missing some apps. Offhand the ones I know about, and find useful: LectroRM FreqFinder I'm dabbling with Sound Report Writer for run+gun bag work notes that I would otherwise scribble on paper. Specifically jobs that issue a 744T and I don't have my Fusion. On my iPad, I have the Denecke and Ambient TC apps. I have not gotten/made the cable yet, so I have not …

Check out this astounding summary of a guy's small-claims court case against Apple for failures in his MacBook Pro and Apple's response to his problem. "Rex earlier this week published a lengthy blog post outlining his experience facing off against two Apple lawyers last week and winning an unspecified sum sufficient to purchase a new computer."

Pen for iPad. Just found this on the app store today. I find myself with no time to type sound reports during a shoot. This looks handy to me for just making quick notes on the fly and later transfer to Sound Reporter. I also like that I can use a big fat red marker to tell someone on set something without making a sound or trying to use hand signals to convey a simple message. To me with the eraser and pen and type tools it works like a Etch a Sketch with pages. Will let you know how it works. Tom Maloney

Hi, I just got myself a used Ipod touch, mainly for CL-WIFI. I made myself a cable like the iTC-INX, just to find out, that the mic input contact on the Ipods TRRS sleeve is loose. Could I just input a TC signal line level via the dock connector to run Ambient's TC App?

I've been on Verizon for years, so an iPhone wasn't an option till recently. Now that it is... the only holdup I have is navigation. Right now I have a DroidX, and the built-in google turn by turn nav is pretty great. I do a lot of jobs where I am in a new location every day. I can enter the job in iCal, or in Google calendar, and it will sync with my phone. When in my car I drop my phone in the car mount, click the entry in the calendar and the address is a link to launch google maps directions, with one more click and I am getting turn by turn navigation (spoken "turn right on Lincoln Drive in 300 yards"). I have not powered up my Garmin since I got my Droid X in Summer…

If you enjoy listening to a good story, and I think you do, give a listen to the latest episode of "This American Life." Its a superb storytelling performance by Mike Daisey as he visits the Apple factory in China. Also as interesting is Mike's voice and nuanced delivery.

Mary Gruszka / 12.21.2011 12:00AM Audio Measurement Apps—Things to Be Aware Of With the growing number of audio measurement apps for smart devices becoming available, and for fairly reasonable prices, why should you keep your "old" test gear or consider buying new? Even though apps offer amazing capabilities already, and are getting better with regular updates and improvements, it's still early days yet for apps to replace other test gear. TESTING THE TEST GEAR With any test device, it's important to test the test equipment. Compare measurements obtained with apps with those tak…

How the iPod and Other Audio Devices Are Destroying Your Ears By Sara J. Martinez Damage from music is not always permanent, but some audiologists have seen mp3-inflicted issues so strong that hearing aids were needed Portable music players may be contributing to permanent hearing loss among many casual listeners, gradually leading to the inability to discern speech. An iPod's maximum volume is more than 10 times as loud as the recommended listening setting, audiologists say, and the sensory damage caused by prolonged listening is irreversible. Since the iPod was introduced in 2001, hearing loss has been an obvious problem among young patients of Brian Fli…

OK, so I know I read somewhere that there is a difference, but I don't remember what it is. I just put a USB plug into my soundcart and it can charge most things with a USB connection, except my Iphone. What's different about the Iphone USB connection ? Anyone know if it would be the same with the Iphone 4S ?

From the US public-radio show Marketplace comes this story: The story begins with a factory just outside of Shanghai. It's three football fields long; it's blue and gray; and it's owned by the Taiwanese company Kaedar Electronics. In August, environmental groups released a report saying Kaedar's factory was emitting toxic levels of pollution. The report also said the company was making products for Apple -- which is notorious for keeping its supply chain secret. The report said the pollution was so bad that it was making people in a nearby village sick. So, I went there. You can listen or read the story and see some pictures here: http://www.marketpla...…

How do I transfer audio files to a PC via USB port wire from iphone recorded with FiRe? FiRe is a better (free) recorder than the built in Voice Memo as it has a volume slider. You can also buy a $ 30 STEREO CHEPO MIKE THAT PLUGS CONVENIENTLY INTO THE iphone. Voice memo though has a emailer built in. In order to combat piracy Apple does not allow for iOS device -> computer transfers via the USB cable. Have you tired using Bonjour in Safari? To access your FiRe recordings with Bonjour in Safari: 1 Launch FiRe on your iPhone/iPod and turn on Browser Access. 2 Open Safari on the PC and click the book icon in the upper-left corner of the browser window (it…
