Mimicking the layout of Hohner's iconic chromatic button accordions (CBA), both B-System (Bayan) and C-System, this intuitive virtual accordion is easy to play and sounds exactly like the real instrument.

New version 4.1.1
Old version 4.0.2
Release Notes Faster playing and audio quality improvements. New features: MIDI Control: The Treble sounds may be played via MIDI from a MIDI keyboard or other MIDI player or controller apps. Set the MIDI channel for the treble side using the "MIDI Channel" slider on the settings page. Lowest note is G3 (MIDI Note 55) Range is G3 through E6. Bass/Chord Shift: You can now transpose the bass and chords up or down by either zero or two semitones, effectively shifting the bass side up or down by two rows. This allows you to play songs that use chords not available in the basic layout, for example Em tunes that require Bm and F#m. For example, a shift of +2 means that the E bass and chord buttons now play F#, the A is a B, and D is an E. Note: When the bass side sound is transposed, the labels on the buttons do not change. This may be addressed in a future update. I added this feature after wanting to be able to play "Indifference" on the app, which required F#m. :-)

Celtic Sounds is a fully transposable MIDI sound module with five traditional Irish musical instruments.

New version 2.4
Old version 2.3
Release Notes Improved response speed and sound quality improvements. Added a "MIDI Transpose Semitones" control for use with MIDI hardware chanters and other controllers to shift the incoming MIDI stream to the required MIDI Note-On message range required by the app. The app may now be used as an Audiobus 2 source module and is compatible with Audiobus 3. Several audio quality related bug fixes related to pops/clicks on some devices when first playing. Celtic Sounds is now a Universal iPhone/iPad app! Improved visual interface on iPad and iPhone X, made the instrument and reverb selectors a bit taller. Improved audio engine sound and performance. Better handling of realtime volume control messages. Use the "Transpose Semitones" slider to shift the entire instrument up or down up to one octave in semitone increments. This setting shifts the pitch of the sounds but does not change the MIDI note numbers the app responds to. Touch the number to the right of the "Transpose Semitones" slider to reset the transposition to zero semitones. Now you can pick your reverb style from four options: Room, Hall1, Hall2, or Church. Added volume and reverb level indicators. If you have a MIDI "stuck note" touch the AppCordions logo to stop all sounds. Added support for Uilleann Pipes Drones and Baritone Regulator pairs. When playing the Uilleann instrument, the following special MIDI notes, starting starting on D2 (50) one octave below the lowest note on the chanter D3 (62), are used for the drone and regulator pair sounds: D2 (50) - Lynch Drones D#2(51) - Crowley Drones E2 (52) - D/F# Baritone/Tenor Regulator Pair F2 (53) - D/G Baritone/Tenor Regulator Pair F#2 (54) - F#/A Baritone/Tenor Regulator Pair G2 (55) - G/B Baritone/Tenor Regulator Pair G#2 (56) - G/C Baritone/Tenor Regulator Pair A2 (57) - A/C Baritone/Tenor Regulator Pair Uilleann pipes drones key triggers (D2 and D#2) are now "latching". The drones start on the first press of the trigger key, stop on the second. The chanter notes start at D3 (62) and go to D5 (86) When playing the Uilleann instrument, any pitch bend messages received only effect the chanter notes, not the drones or regulators.
