Features Music Box Composer
Create your own Music Box music, and easily share your compositions with others.Designed to aid composing and editing your own music prior to punching the paper strips for Music Boxes, MBC allows you to compose, edit, preview, play, save and share your creations via Twitter, Facebook, Email or local file transfer.- Built for Tablets and Phones- Supports 15, 20 and 30 note music boxes.- Share your compositions with others via Facebook, Twitter and Email.- Multiple undo- Disable Notes for temporary changes- Ripple edits- Save and Load (access the save location via iTunes File Sharing/Android local storage)- Sounds sampled from physical Music Boxes- Save strip to JPG/PDF file.- MIDI export and importThe physical Music Boxes with the punchable paper strips are great fun - what I found was missing was an easy way to preview either transpositions or original creations.
This aims to fill that gap but its also a fun music creation tool in its own right.
Compatible with the types of music box you can purchase from Grand Illusions or Kikkerland (the Sankyo 33 not box is not currently supported - but it is in the works).There is a growing library of strips that can be loaded into the app:http://www.jellybiscuits.com/?page_id=763For an example of a shared composition:http://www.jellybiscuits.com/mbc/mbp.php?lL5nDF79Demo of composing, printing, punching an playing:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jWxkoHcPbS0Rated as a Killer App by Apps4iDevice.Fix for the Midi file picker not allowing picking of midi files.

What Our Users Say
Don't just take our word for it. Here's what our users have to say about our Android app.
"Excellent. Love it."
Christi M
"Sometimes the music doesn't play in time, but "limps" in a weird swingy way. Otherwise I love the app and all the possibilities! Also saving tunes is a bit more confusing than it should be. Hoping for an update. Would happily pay for this beautiful app!"
Shirish Malhotra
"Frustrating. I was able to compose music, and that went very smoothly. However, I can't export the music in any form. I literally can't use it outside of the app, which makes the money I spent pointless."
Shanna Lynn
"Great, but can't seem to load midi files. Am I doing it wrong?"
Joan Maquinano
"Very nice app. I would make a suggestions though. To give an illusion of seperation of the octaves, either by spacing or coloring. It is tedious work to know which note is on which line as you are adding the dots. A seperation by space or color would help the composer know on which octave he or she is. (the paper strips do this by adding space) thanks."
Rolando Fingal
"Spiffingly Good. Exactly what i wanted, the pdf printing is spot on and everything."
Ken Ralph
"i feel as though it goes out of time, or speeds up whenever i record a song. is there anything in the settings to prevent that? and instead of having speed can we have a tempo setter."
Manny G
"I like it so far. A little bit of work on the gui will make it a 5 star app. Thanks to the developer's for a job well done."
William House
"Very well made, can be difficult initially to get the import/export working with larger midi files (forums are great, many thanks for the help). Glad I purchased it! Managed to get some insane compositions going (AoT intro etc)"
Ben Smith
"Worth every dollar. Makes it significantly easier to craft music and not waste paper testing how it all sounds. Thanks for this amazing app!"
