The F/X menu - where you can edit and tweak your recording. Although the buttons tend to be a little hard to press, the functionality of the app is still great. |
The sound sequencer - where you put the song together. Simply tap a block to enter a loop, and tap it again to remove it. |
|
The sampler - the 16 multitouch pads allow you to creatively put a loop together, and easily show off to your friends. |
The pattern sequencer - an easy to use (and pretty) menu in which you can manually edit loops. |
|
Cut and chop your loops with your fingers. |
