Today we released a minor update of our
Google Android application Tub Thumper.
Tub Thumper is a touch screen drum machine for the
Google Android platform and has proved immensely popular since its release last November.
This version is a minor release with a new hip-hop style drum kit, to wet people's apetites for our upcoming major release.
We've been hard at work developing Tub Thumper Pro, which will feature many new cool things. Notable assignable drum pads and the ability to sequence beats, similar to using a
Roland TR-909 drum machine.
As it's not yet ready I'm not saying much more, but here's a sneak preview of assigning some drum sounds:
We're aiming this release for the Cupcake build of Android, which will have hit everyone's phones by the time we release it.
At
SASS, we spend most of our time working on client projects; developing web and mobile applications for clients. It's nice to get a break from this to work on some of our own projects such as Tub Thumper and it gives us a great opportunity to try out new development ideas and increase our knowledge as developers. There does not seem to be a huge amount of
Android developers around Manchester and Cheshire so it often feels like we're out on our own, but we'll continue to experiment and release new Android apps to showcase our ideas.
You can grab Tub Thumper from the
Android Market. Just
search, or check out the most popular Multimedia apps.
