Overview

TouchBells is an easy and fun to use carillon music instrument (a.k.a. Glockenspiel) for the Apple iPad. You play the TouchBells instrument by touching the bells with your fingers. TouchBells has a range of approx. 1 1/2 octave – from C3 to Fis4. TouchBells is contrapuntal and can play up to 10 sounds simultaneously. However, a classic Glockenspiel instrument is played using two mallets, so normally a maximum of two sounds are played simultaneously.

TouchBells comes with 25 demo songs, to listen to or to start learning to play immedialtely. TouchBells inculdes three different instruments, a classic Glockenspiel, a Vibraphone and a Tubular Bells instrument. Each with different sounds and instrument design. TouchBells ist touch sensitive! The harder you hit the bells, the louder the instrument sounds.

What Users Say

„Great for a beginner – I love the tutor mode: you can turn it on or off, or just play and watch, and then teach yourself the tune. Adjustable tuning, vibes or bells, responsive volume depending on where you strike. It’s a very nice way to exercise your musical brain. Looks perfect for a real musician, too.“
Ghitle, Unites States
„Great – Very nicely done – 1 1/2 octaves, chromatics, record/playback facility. An excellent step-up from the basic children’s xylophone.“
