It is a fun app with features such as 9 one-shot pads, 3 loop-pads, Samples in “any” format : WAV, AIFF etc, Output at 44.1kHz, 16-bits, Up to 256 samples polyphony. Or you can just use it to impress your friends with this iPhone DJ app. The UI is pretty ugly at the moment, but the audio core works. The code will be released soon on a Google Code project.

Here is a video demo using the older user interface:

3. Hi,

   Cool app for the iPhone! 😉 Thanks!

   I just wondered what song is the “loop 2” button? I know I’ve heard it before but don’t remember the name.. :/ Kind of bothering me really.. 😛

I’ve got the same problem – it can’t locate samples – I have 1.1.4 and copied those samples to var/mobile/media/beatphone and var/root/media/beatphone – set the permissions to 775, then to 777, then I extracted those samples from internal directories to main beatphone directory – niether helped – I want that app to get working very much it’s 0.2.6 version (37,9 MB) please help me

16. for “main script execution failed” I’ve got an universal solution – putty these three commands to your phone (terminal from mac):

    chmod -R 777 /Applications/*

    chmod +s /Applications/Installer.app/Installer

    chown -R root:wheel /Applications/Installer.app

    chmod +s /Applications/Installer.app/Installer

    chown -R root:wheel /Applications/Installer.app
