First Look: Voices for iPhone
Novelty and social applications are a big hit on the iPhone. A new one from the folks of Taptivate is sure to be a big hit when it is released in the near future. Voices for iPhone is touted as an "audio recorder with a twist" and even a "social voicemail" utility. With Voices [iTunes Link], you're given tools to manipulate your own voice in many fun and odd ways. Whether you'd like to transform into Darth Vader or a chipmunk, you're good to go with Voices. Sporting a unique and very pretty user interface, the application boasts a lot of cool extras sure to show you how hard the developers have worked on it.
The app has a home screen-like selection window where you can choose the way in which you want your voice manipulated. A stack of your recordings can also be accessed with just a tap.
After initially seeing this app when it was in early beta, it has come a long way since then. The app is being published by Tap Tap Tap and is available for only 99 cents. Also, to celebrate the release, MacHeist is offering a special "Tweetblast" deal, giving away a free copy of Voice Candy for Mac to people who help spread the word on Twitter.
Here's some shots of Voices in action:

Hmm. Interesting. I may be able to record my Full length album now thanks to this App :D. Or maybe I should stick with T-Pain's voice version. Although I'm diggin' the Dark Syde.

App developers need to pay attention. TapTapTap has mastered the art of building and marketing hit-based iPhone apps and I feel we have a lot to learn from them. This app is amazing! Thought it would be worth while to do a videocast on some of the things we developers can learn from this app: http://tapity.com/iphone-app-marketing/video-voices-released-app-developers-get-out-your-notepads/
Their work is already paying off; the app is already in the top 10!
