Found Footage: Reggie Watts and his iPhone rock Sirius XM
Comedian/musician/mad genius Reggie Watts found himself sans equipment (seems to be going around) when he was being interviewed on Sirius XM radio, but that didn't slow him down one bit. He pulled out his iPhone 4, and using a looping app (possibly Everyday Looper, $5.99) he improvised a number that absolutely wowed host Ron Bennington and the rest of the folks in the studio. Be sure to listen for Bennington's final line.
Seeing this, you wonder: are the rest of us really getting the maximum utility out of these ridiculously powerful miniature computers disguised as phones?

"I love this app and have used it live a few times as a backup. Its easy to use responsive and sounds decent. I just wish there was stereo panning for each track, reverb and delay and the ability to adjust the loop length of the primary track. And while I'm wishing I'd love to find a way to get an adaptor to plug in an sm58!!!!!!! I have a feeling some of this will be addressed in the future:) Love Reggie Watts"
He gave it four stars.
What is the name of the app??? Looks very cool
