Very Cool Software‘s iStylophone (App Store link) is a new $5.99 virtual instrument for the iPhone that’s designed to be is a faithful reproduction of the original Stylophone electronic musical instrument.
It may be very cool software – but it would be even cooler if Iconic Apps hadn’t already introduced a $ .99 virtual Stylophone for the iPhone, RetroSynth (App Store link).
The Stylophone’s unique sound has featured on numerous hit records, by a diverse range of artists including: David Bowie, Brett Domino, Erasure, Hexstatic, Kraftwerk, Marilyn Manson, Orbital, Pulp, The Raconteurs and They Might Be Giants.
Dear Synthopia
Beware of cheap imitations!
FYI: Retro Synth is no longer a Stylophone App, there can be only one
iStylophone! – the Dübreq iStylophone by The Very Cool Software Company.

FYI – there is only one Retro Synth – as seen being played on the number one featured YouTube smash hit by The Mentalists covering MGMT Kid’s!

Come on The Mentalists!
Sehr schönes App. Schade nur dass beim starten mein ganzer iPod abstürtzt.
Bought it but it doesn’t work. Can’t get support from the website as that doesn’t work either
