The physical Music Boxes with the paper punch strips and are great fun - what was missing was an easy way to preview either transpositions or original creations. This aims to fill that gap but it's also a fun music creation tool in it's own right.

Rated as a Killer App by Apps4iDevice.

Note that there is a desktop version of MBC available from the Mac App Store, as well as desktop versions for other OS's from the Jellybiscuits site.
