Mbira is an ancient musical instrument that has been played by the Shona people of Zimbabwe. Its most important function is as a tool to communicate with the ancestor spirits at religious ceremonies and social events. MbiraSS recreates the original beautiful and clear sound by removing the bottle caps and shells that are often affixed to the soundboard to make a buzzing sound. Enjoy playing the mystical music instrument on your iPhone, iPod touch or iPad!

Added the recording function!
It picks the surrounding sounds as well, and you can use it in many different ways such as recording your vocals or creating a voice memo. You can also send the recorded data via email. Note that the maximum attachment size of an email depends on the iOS device you are using. Please contact your cell phone service provider for further information. * A 10 seconds recording is around 450 kB.

* Support iTunes file sharing(http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4094?viewlocale=en_US)

Added the play with other music app button on the right side of the record button (however, this disables the recording). For example, you can play along with your favorite songs on Music app.

Now you can select the audio file format when recording.
If you want to send a file via email, record at "22kHz / 8 bit" to reduce the file size.

* Users who have a problem with the musical instrument app that doesn't make any sound. (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5137?viewlocale=en_US)
