Process live audio from nearly any input source, including Audiobus compatible apps, the built in mic, or a professional audio interface such as the Apogee Jam, Apogee MIC, iRig, and more.

Record and automate your effect parameter movements using the Motion Looper. Use the sound on sound looper to create layered soundscapes, capture samples, process and resample for creative sound design, and more. Use the “scratch loopers” to record or import an audio file and scratch it by manipulating the playback speed/direction by dragging. Export and share loops using AudioCopy/Paste, or share them directly to the AudioShare file management app. Connect your device to iTunes on your Mac/PC to access your recordings and loops in iTunes File Sharing.
