#mangler effect

Recently there was an announcement by the scientific community, who had just discovered a new type of battery, or capacitor that could charge extremely quick and discharge very slow.  The best part about this material was that it was lightweight and organic, meaning batteries would no longer need to be made out of toxic materials such as lead and a similar sized battery would hold much more potential energy.  This is good news for everybody who is working to make technology lighter and faster, and it means that one day we can truly have both small and lightweight, while not sacrificing a large battery capacity. An iPad app would be this much more usable if the actual tablet was lightweight and did not need to be hooked into the wall the entire time.  Retronyms, which creates small beat making and effect apps has released three new type of devices for their program.  One of them is a sound mangler that uses an accelerometer and a stutter effect to filter the beat.  They have also included a sort of live remix board that allows you to basically juggle cue point and piece a song back together in a remixed state. http://www.synthtopia.com/content/2013/03/07/new-devices-for-tabletop/
