About Hohner G/C Button Accordion
Tradlessons delivers the absolute best sounding Accordion apps for Android!
Hohner announces the introduction of a series of revolutionary new apps for
Android: The Hohner Melodeon.
Modeled on the layout of Hohner's iconic Erica Double-Ray diatonic melodeons,
these intuitive virtual melodeon apps feature a super responsive, two-row
fingerboard that plays and sounds like the traditional instrument.
Reviewers, please read the HARDWARE LIMITATIONS below before posting.
The app is optimized for devices with a screen size of 7" or higher but is still quite playable on smaller screens. Your playing experience may vary on each device, especially concerning multitouch functionality and speed. Please take advantage of the Google Play Store 15-minute trial period to see if the app performs well on your specific device: : http://support.google.com/googleplay/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=134336.
The Hohner Melodeon apps allow musicians to practice scales and songs on-the-go
in five different key combinations and colors. Headphones can be used for
private practice, or the audio output of the virtual melodeon can be amplified
by plugging into computer speakers, or other sound enhancing devices.
Players may enable the note names to be displayed on the large white pearloid
buttons.
This app is ideal for the beginning student or professional musician who needs
a simple carry-on companion to compliment his or her actual melodeon. While not
meant to be a replacement for a real melodeon, the app is a convenient and easy
tool for practicing, learning, or teaching.
Download all five key combinations: Hohner-B/C, Hohner-C#/D, Hohner-D/G,
Hohner-G/C, and Hohner-C/F.
Hardware Limitations:
Please read before purchase of this app if you have a Samsung Galaxy S2 or S3 phone.
Due to the touchscreen hardware capabilities on some Android phones, specifically, but not limited to the Samsung Galaxy S2 and S3, it is not possible to touch two buttons directly next to each other at the same time along a row or between rows and have them both make sound at the same time.
Because the touchscreen hardware does not send us the touch events for adjacent buttons on the phones, this is not something we can fix in the software.
There is no problem on the phones for playing single note melody lines or chords not on directly adjacent buttons.
This limitation is not present for 7" or larger screen tablets.

For best performance, set rotation as fixed landscape and turn OFF "Accessibility > Text > Scaling" BEFORE starting the accordion apps. FYI, I wrote a previous 2-star review. The developer contacted me within hours to see what the problem was. Fantastic support! So I installed on my new Nexus 4 and it works much better than it was on my Nexus 7, until I determined the rotation settings issue noted above, which brought the Nexus 7 up to par. All is well now. Great way to learn the notes on a squeezbox!
