Description of Hook

"Hook is exactly what the doctor ordered. Many apps came close but you nailed it." —DJ puzzle "Hook is definitely the most fun I've had making music on iOS.  The sampling options are vast and the editing is intuitive.  It's connectivity and versatility makes it a powerful performance tool and production sketchbook." — Starkey 5 STARS "Most impressive DJ mashup & sampler / editor I've seen on iOS so far! It's like the best of all other apps combined in one and all of the latest developments integrated like recording or importing ur own music and inter-app audio." — App Store Review Hook is a new music performance, mashup, and DJ app for iPhone and iPad. Arrange and trigger loops on a grid and create dynamic, expressive transitions with the Flux Fader — a multitouch "smart crossfader" that allows you to expressively make transitions between any combination of tracks/cells on the fly. The Flux Fader includes a two-axis control with 9 riser synths, glitch and gate effects, tempo-synced filter sweeps, an EQ, beat drop, tape stop, and filter drop. Combining all these to make transitions is the heart of playing live with Hook. Hook includes a full editor complete with auto transient slicing and waveform editing. Tight integration with AudioCopy makes it easy to drop in your own loops and sounds from other apps. Real creative power can be found in the integrated sampler — record from mic/line, other apps via inter-app audio, and grab hooks from iTunes and Spotify. Change tempo in real time, and keep all your hooks in sync. Hook is a killer mashup tool with a full mixer, tons of tracks, integrated FX bus, per-cell fx, transpose, time stretching, tuning, timing and trigger settings, and more. Imagine the clip launching capabilities of Ableton Live in a futuristic multitouch environment. ==== Extend Hook with Wej! Wej is an iOS music hub that combines a non-skid performance base with integrated lightshow and wireless MIDI for up to two controllers — all while keeping your iOS device charged.

  • Hard to recommend

    The main reason I bought this app was for the Spotify sampling feature, which works but not how it looks like it should. Playlists don’t seem to load, so the only music I can get is via directly searching for it, and then it only gives a limited section of the song to clip from.

    This would be fine if the app didn’t crash randomly while working on getting the perfect clip from a song. If i’d seen it hadn’t been updated in 4 years I would probably have given it a miss.

  • High Quality Application

    Update- Had a chance to rediscover Hook recently and it remains one of the best performance/Dj remix tools on iOS! Using the mixer to incorporate internal and IAA effects on specific loops and one shots makes Hook unique and a stand out as compared to other similar apps. Being able to tune and apply individual effects on each sample (in real time) while tracks are playing allows spontaneous creativity that is also quite special. I hope this app continues to be supported and the developers incorporate AUv3!-

    Hook is a high quality app right out of the gate. It is a terrific beat mashing machine ideal for creating original remixes. Sound quality of the app is first rate. In the right hands, Hook could easily help to generate some income. With the app running on two separate devices synchronized with Ableton Link you could have a formidable DJ rig going. Wish list- ability to sample live and load samples while music continues to play. This would make it a true all in one DJ application in my opinion.

    Hook works really well within the growing Retronym ecosystem! Combined with Tabletop or iMPC Pro, Hook becomes a serious creative reservoir of fresh new musical ideas. Spotify is a nice feature for the remix crowd. Inter app audio makes Hook useful for all genres of music. Kudos to the development team as it is evident a lot of thought went into this fun and useful app.
