About
CRATE is a sampler you talk to.
Type or say a vibe — "dusty boom bap with rhodes", "NewJeans type beat", "dark plugg with bells" — and in a second the pads fill with drums, a chopped sample and a bass line, already playing. Then shape it the way producers do on an MPC or an SP-404, just faster.
MAKE A BEAT IN SECONDS
• Describe a beat and CRATE builds it from its sound library: drums, chops and bass in key.
• Ask for changes in plain words — "add a sax line", "more hats", "punchier snare", "clear the bank". Only that part changes.
• Drag a pad down and say what you want there. Swipe a pad left or right for another sound, up to remove it.
PLAY IT LIKE A SAMPLER
• 16 pads in four banks, a step sequencer and live recording that lands on the beat.
• KEEP JAM saves what you just played over the loop.
• Punch-in effects: hold FX and an effect pad, higher = more.
• Sample from the mic straight onto a pad, or import a song and chop it into 16 pads.
CHOP AND FLIP
• Auto-chops land on real attacks, on the grid.
• FLIP re-sequences the chops into something new while the drums keep playing.
• Per-pad level, filter, attack, release, reverse, key shift and time stretch.
FINISH THE SONG
• Arrange intro, verse, hook and outro from your patterns, or let ARRANGE do it in one tap.
• Change tempo, swing and key; export the song as audio to share.
MADE FOR IPHONE DUO
• On iPhone Duo the hinge is an effect: fold to build tension, snap open for the drop. The outer screen keeps the beat in view when it's folded.
• Works great on iPhone and iPad too.

What's New in CRATE
1.0.1
October 15, 2026
CRATE now feels like hardware. Pads thud, keys press like a real keybed, knobs and the hinge click through detents, and stops land with a dead knock. Plus voice and stability fixes.
