Goboland Releases Black Steel Gobo iPhone App

goboland_iphone_appLooks like another Gobo manufacturer has gotten on the iPhone App bandwagon. Goboland has just announced the release of their very own iPhone app that includes their entire Black Steel Gobo catalog.

From iTunes:

GOBOLAND is an independent, specialized manufacture of high quality glass and steel gobos for all lighting fixtures.  Easily browse the award winning Black Steel Collection gobos.  The app doesn’t require an internet connection while you browse the 1200+ gobo patterns available in high quality Black steel or glass.

The app requires iPhone OS 2.2.1 or later and runs about 41.9mb.  Not the smallest file size, but when you think about it, that is over 1200+ images and one less gobo catalog to print or carry around.

The Black Steel Gobo Catalog is a free app through iTunes, linky linky.  We are a little annoyed that this is yet another gobo catalog app running on the iPhone.  Can’t we just add all of these into one place?

    I really appreciate that Goboland is providing this catalog to us free of charge… and I appreciate what Rosco is doing and Wybron has done. But c’mon. switching between apps to compare gobos is ridiculous.

    Wybron’s app is smooth, streamlined, feature rich, and has tons of libraries. I’ve already made some purchasing decisions based on the TwinSpin feature, and without Rosco gobos in there they are just losing sales.

    So, to Rosco and Goboland: Embrace Wybron’s app! We’ll all appreciate it your willingness to give us another catalog option, but help us purchase from you! Besides, Goboland’s app is just clunky. Having to flip pages to scroll through 1200+ gobos is time consuming and unnecessary.

    To Wybron: Keep up the great work. Moire is a invaluable part of my toolkit, even if Rosco is MIA. Add in the ability to simulate a TwinSpin with a stationary gobo in the gate and variable focus on effects and I’ll gladly pay for the functionality.
