Okaynokay, a new IOS developer released today Seaquence a new music sequencer app with a very special design. Seaquence gives the musicians the possibility to create music with animated creatures. For direct music creations, a polyphonic Synthesizer is included. This new app is available for free but there is an in-app purchase for 6.99 $ / €. I don’t test it yet but the apps looks very interesting in my eyes. Also very cool is the business model of this company. 10% of all profits go towards supporting the community of Gray Area Foundation for the Artts, a San Francisco non-profit arts organisation.
