Android 4.3 includes performance optimizations and great new features for users and developers. This document provides a glimpse of what's new for developers. See the Android 4.3 APIs document for a detailed look at the new developer APIs. Find out more about the new Jelly Bean features for users at www.android.com. Faster, Smoother, More Responsive Android 4.3 builds on the performance improvements already included in Jelly Bean — vsync timing, triple buffering, reduced touch latency, CPU input boost, and hardware-accelerated 2D rendering — and adds new optimizations that make Android even faster.
For a graphics performance boost, the hardware-accelerated 2D renderer now optimizes the stream of drawing commands, transforming it into a more efficient GPU format by rearranging and merging draw operations. The best Android music making apps in the world today. First the bad news: despite having a huge installed user base, when it comes to music making apps, Android remains very much the poor relation to Apple’s iOS.
This isn’t because developers don’t want to release apps for Google’s mobile OS, rather that various problems - notably high audio latency and the fact that there are numerous devices and different versions of Android in circulation - have prevented them from doing so. However, all is not lost. Sonoma Wire Works recently announced that it’s developed a low latency audio solution for Android (though time will tell if device manufacturers will implement this into their products) and more companies seem to be taking a second look at the platform.
What’s more, there are Android music making apps on the market right now: what follows is a guide to some of the best ones available (they’re listed in no particular order, by the way). If you’re got other favourites that you think deserve to be on this list, let us know about them. Android Musician - Android Audio MIDI Music Apps. FL Studio Mobile for Android: it works! We've known for a while that Image-Line has been working on an Android version of its FL Studio mobile app, but only now can we see proof that, in some respects at least, it actually works.
Synthesizer for Android with full VST integration. FL Studio on Android. Good Things for Android: Beautiful SphereTones, Low-Latency SPC Sketchpad. Beautiful music apps, high-performance music apps, both possible on Android.
Now, if Google could only turn “possible” into “practical.” Owners of Android phones and (if you’re out there) Android tablets have had a rough time of it as far as music apps. A lackluster market combined with inconsistent-to-awful audio performance have kept the bulk of mobile development on iOS. But if you do have an Android phone or tablet, we’ve got a beautiful app you can enjoy. And if you’re lucky enough to have one of a handful of specific Nexus devices, you can use the very-powerful SPC Sketchpad with low-latency support. In fact, these two apps represent a microcosm of what’s possible. Let’s talk about the app for everyone first. SphereTones is a beautiful, animated artwork, a “visual instrument” that is its developers say were inspired by perpetual-motion machines. SphereTones @ Google Play It’s all built in the cross-platform, free software library OpenFrameworks.
Andraudio Info Page. The andraudio mailing list is a community discussion list about Android audio development at both application and system level.
That means development using Android's Java audio API, native C/C++ bridged to Java, and Android's implementation of OpenSL ES as well as Android audio platform internals. We intend that the list will cut accross the strict separation between user space and system development adopted by the various official Android lists. We are here to discuss ideas and to help each other. Everyone is welcome. Please feel free to introduce yourself. We have a companion Wiki and source code repository at The wiki is meant to host various experiments and audio code examples related to audio on Android, as well as document high and low level aspects of the audio stack. This is not an official Google list. If you're interested in Audio software development in general you may want to visit the musicdsp mailing list, or the comp.dsp newsgroup (browse on the web here).
