propellerhead-record-logoI got my email today stating that I’m an official beta tester for Propellerheads Software’s new product “Record.” This is really exciting (at least for me). I can’t wait to get home and install this.

Propellerheads are the champions of some great music composition software for both the Mac and PC. I’ve been an avid follower of their tools for years. Starting way back in college using Rebirth. This is by far my favorite tool to use in my studio for softsynth sounds. I’ve waited a long time for Propellerhead to develop a multitrack recording software that integrates with Reason. Especially since all of their apps have played nicely with the Line6 products. I’ll post my findings as I play.

So I’ve had my new iPhone for a few weeks now as an upgrade from my first Generation iPhone. I must say this thing is lightning fast compared to my old model. I was afraid I wouldn’t really notice any real speed boost between the Edge and 3G network but man I was wrong.

So far my favorite applications are:
Apple provided apps: Calendar, Camera, Maps, Weather, App Store, Mail, Safari, Contacts, & iPod

Downloaded apps I run: TweetDeck, Ping.fm, Facebook, WordPress, AIM, Bible, Craigsphone, eBay, Evernote, Google, Google Earth, FourTrack, iShred, iTick, OmniTuner, Checkers, Cro-Mag, Remote, MouthOff, myLite, Skype, VNC, keynote Remote, AT&T myWireless, WiFi HD lite

Believe it or not ,I do use them all. What’s your favorite apps?
