Hello,
We are IT-Engineers with higher educations, having more than 15 years of experience, developing sophisticated Web and Mobile solutions from scratch.
During the consultation with you regarding the use-cases we will in parallel work on the Functional Description. Our task will be to research all the implementation options chosen by you for the technological implement-ability and to create the professional base for the engineering design. We will ensure the flexibility and readiness to possible requirements changes based on the market best practices and our 15 years of development experience.
The answers to your questions:
1. We would suggest prototyping the initial versions of the software on the available devices, such as iPhone / iPad.
2. An audio file will anyways inevitably be created in the process of recording, then processed and the original file will be deleted if required.
3. The milestones and effort estimation can be performed only after the initial Product Design Engineering process has taken place. This is the next stage of the process.
4. We've been working with mobile / server side projects for more than 15 years. In the Audio branch we've been producing electronic music for various purposes, using sound synthesis and sound engineering / sound design technologies.
Best Regards,
Andrei Costenco
