Yamaha Develops TNR-i App: Offers Increased Accessibility to the Pioneering Tenori-On Music Sequencer

Buena Park, CA (PRWEB) August 24, 2011

Yamaha announces the introduction of a new iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch app that emulates the unique and addictive Tenori-on music sequencer, which lets anyone make interesting music instantly. Easy to use and mesmerizing to look at, the TNR-i app is a faithful duplication of the design, interface and capabilities of the pioneering Tenori-on W and the Tenori-on O that have been used in live performances and the studios of Peter Gabriel, Bjork and Little Boots, among others.

Now, the famous Tenori-On functionality fits into your pocket, said Athan Billias, Director of Marketing, Pro Audio & Combo Division. The new app makes it easier than ever for anyone to compose music that is visually and aurally stimulating.

The new app, available in the iTunes store, costs $ 19.99 and features a 16×16 grid of buttons, with the horizontal direction indicating time and the vertical representing pitch. The TNR-i can produce 16 types of sound simultaneously and can store up to 16 song patterns in its memory.

Switching between song patterns in real time allows for the creation of complex, distinctive musical compositions. In Random mode, melodies and rhythms constantly change as the user manipulates the interface. In Draw mode, tracing fingers across the grid is the primary method for shaping sounds. The app also makes it possible to network with other users and become friends with a feature that allows up to four players to connect at a time.

Apple does not sponsor or participate in this promotion.

Answer by MotoMan
The R1 has alloy wheels so the whole wheel must be chromed, not just the “rim”. There are a couple of alternatives. Polish the rim portion of the wheels, then paint the spokes whatever color you’d like, or have the wheels chromed, then sand blast and paint the spokes. I don’t think you’re going to find the wheels that you are looking for on the shelf at a shop.
