BeatCutter for Android

Setting/applying templates does nothing anymore.

The learning curve is steep, but there are numerous video tutorials to help you along the way. Be patient, and the reward is well worth the effort. This is an utterly unique audio mangling device that generates an infinity of soundscapes, textures, rhythmic beats, and melodies from audio files, audio inputs from synths, or a mixture of them. There are 4 live audio busses and 8 total busses. Triggers can listen to any combination of the busses. It really gets crazy when you incorporate the built-in feedback path, then disconnect the audio input and let it churn away. And there is a suite of built-in FX you can apply to the audio, which likewise can be fed-back into the system for unending audio concoctions. Hints: the grid you see is full of squares, each of which can hold a snippet of audio (called a “recording”), and you have control over the lengths of the audio clips as well as the progression of the recordings up and across the rows and columns; use AUM and the app’s multi-input buss feature to feed four synths into a single instance of it, combine with 4 more audio files (if you dare); use the internal feedback path; the VCS3 app, with its own internal feedback path is a great pairing for feedback insanity (try feeding 4 VCS3s into it); and lastly, using Igor’s amazing SoundScaper, SynthScaper, and FieldScaper apps as inputs will blow the doors off of what is possible (and may peel the paint off your walls in the process). And, track down the YouTube tutorials from several different sources, as there are multiple approaches to using this app. If you are an audio mad-scientist, sound designer, foley engineer, synthesist, recording engineer, or just naturally audio-curious, you will adore this app! 5 stars does not do it justice. 100-stars would be more appropriate!

This is other-dimensional. Stick with it...read the manual, play with it all, go back and read, play...you’ll likely get it fairly quickly and then you’ll thank your lucky stars that Igor is a such a freakin genius, and a dedicated one at that.

This app is beastly, I just want AudioShare support pretty please

That being said, it’s a pretty complex app!
