LyricGo is an app that can be used to view and visualize Lyrics in fun ways. The app morphs from word to word to word in the order that you enter the words. You control the morphing speed, colors, drawing icons, size, spin, twist, etc. You can paste one song of lyrics, or combine ten or more song lyrics together. But actually, LyricGo is multi-purpose and can be used for any message you want to display in a fun way. The message could be Lyrics, or an Advertisement, a special greeting for someone on their Birthday, for Valentines messages, for holidays, for Halloween, etc. The app can be used in any social setting such as a school function, a party, a concert or band performance, an office meeting, in booths at conferences, job fairs, art fairs, etc. The morphing words are very eye catching, and people will notice your message at a quick glance and be very curious. LyricGo could even be used in any store or sales location to let customers know about special deals or offers.
Rock bands or other musicians could use LyricGo to display their lyrics to the audience. Or they could display to the audience any combinations of words they desire in order to give their performance interesting visual effects, stage presence, and enhance their light show. Currently, there is no syncing of Lyrics to music. But there is the potential of adding syncing and that could be developed for a future version of LyricGo. The most simple way to do that could be to allow someone to tap the iPad screen with the timing of the sung lyrics. If interested in that feature, please contact Logic Engine Designs through its website to consider possibilities. It could be interesting to try to sync the morphing effects of LyricGo with some streamed musics lyrics. If you have ideas in this area, please contact us.
Clubs could use LyricGo to display artistic special effects to get their patrons in the mood, and even show them advertising about upcoming events that would catch their eye and enhance their curiosity.
LyricGo is flexible and will handle any number of words. Once two words are in the text buffer, it starts to continuously morph word to word to word. For many social settings, you will want to keep your messages short in length with just a few sentences. You can use thousands of words if desired, such as all of the Lyrics to your favorite bands songs as a special effect at parties.
The morphings are very artistic since each character is drawn with a particle engine. As words and letters morphs, you will see artistic effects. A fun telescoping effect occurs when the length of two words being morphed differs in the number of characters. As the letters morph from word to word, an interesting sliding effect of the particles occur. Sometimes banks of particles slide from their old locations in the previous letter to new locations in the next letter. Sometimes particles slide between adjacent characters (1st and 2nd, 2nd and 3rd, etc). The effect is very unique and it is likely that you have never seen these aesthetic effects before since the app is based on a unique and proprietary logic engine that can morph particles from any specified shape or letter to any other.
LyricGo allows users to select from dozens of colorful icons and background colors to display their messages with.
You can enter text into LyricGo by copy and paste, or by using the keyboard, or by using the microphone option on the keyboard if you are connected to WiFi. You can easily copy and paste the contents of an email, a file, or any Notes file that you have on your iPad. Copy and Paste is the recommended method for entering text, as you will get the same effect every time.
