Nice. Would be extra nice touch if long press would produce muted sound (cut out early) as the cat keeps its paw on the bongo drum / cowbell.

Deeply sad that this makes no sound on my iPhone cos my kids would find this hilarious.

You have to take it out of silent mode.

Ah, I am so used to video on the web not being muted that this didn't occur to me. Thanks!

It's fun and game, but there is too much latency between my keyboard and the output sound. It is impossible to overdub something.

No latency at all for me. Was able to play pretty complicated stuff and I'm used to the Launchpad X.

Although it then remutes if I lock and unlock, or switch away. iOS is fun.

The last time I checked, we didn't have a whole lot of songs that feature a cat playing the cowbell and therefore I would be doing myself a disservice, and every member of the HN if I didn't perform the hell out of this.

The sounds don't seem well balanced. The cow bell is very loud and when I turn down overall volume I can't even hear the bongos. I bet they are normalised rather than balanced for perceived loudness.

This is exactly how it should be. Cowbells are loud!
