Today I released Capo 1.3 for iOS, and you can buy it now from the link at http://capoapp.com/iphone.html.
In this release, I added a much-requested feature. That is, you can now import MP3, WAV, AIFF, and MPEG-4 audio files from other applications...
I'm going to level with you: I'm drowning here on my own with four products on my plate and a fast-moving set of platforms to support. I'd rather be focusing on adding features, but lately I am spending too much time on playing catch-up.
So instead...
It might appear that I've not done much to the app in a while, but TapeDeck 1.5 represents months of technical debt repayment, plus a few new features.

The naïve implementation of my time display actually involved a...
Have you ever wished you could memset() with a stride parameter? Are you also using floating-point values?
OK, let me frame this a different way. Suppose you're drawing a waveform on the screen. You'll need to set a list of points, where the X values...
I wrote a guest post over at Mike Ash's blog about the Fast Fourier Transform. Check it out if you're interested in learning a bit more about how it works.
I have a lot of potential follow-up post ideas to continue this series on Fourier Transforms...
I don't ever want to see this in your layer-backed and/or layer-hosting view's code:
someLayer.contentsScale = [[NSScreen mainScreen] backingScaleFactor];
Because it makes the following assumptions:
Since early 2011, I have been planning a set of large-scale moves that would impact my work life greatly. My wife and I decided to build and move into a new home, and I needed to finally incorporate SuperMegaUltraGroovy.
