## What is SoundPad+ Soundboard?

Turn your own sound clips into a soundboard: tap to play, double-tap to loop, and trim and fade every pad.

SoundPad+ is a no-nonsense soundboard for your own audio. No meme packs, no bundled sound library: every pad holds your clip, with your name and your colour.

TAP, LOOP, STOP
• Tap a pad to play a sound once
• Double-tap to loop it, with no gap at the join
• Double-tap a sound that's already playing to keep it going as a loop
• Tap a playing pad to stop it
• Long-press a pad to rename it, swap the sound or pick a colour

TRIM & FADE EVERY PAD
• Drag the handles on the waveform to keep exactly the part of a clip you want
• Add fade-ins and fade-outs that rise from true silence and fall away smoothly
• Preview your edit before you save it, and your original file is never changed
• Works on long recordings as well as short sound effects

16 PADS PER PAGE
Build a page for each set (a gig, a stream, a lesson, a show) and swipe between them. Reorder pads and pages, rename them, or delete a page in a couple of taps.

MADE FOR LIVE USE
• Polyphonic mode layers several pads at once, or switch it off so a new pad stops the last
• Per-pad volume sliders balance your board without re-editing the files
• Colour-coded pads make the one you want easy to hit under pressure
• Playing and looping pads light up so you can see what's running
• The screen stays awake while sound is playing
• Works on iPhone and iPad

YOUR SOUNDS, YOUR DEVICE
Add audio from Files, iCloud Drive or your downloads: MP3, M4A/AAC, WAV and AIFF. Each sound is copied into the app, so your soundboard keeps working even after you tidy up.

SHARE A WHOLE BOARD
Export a page (sounds, names, colours, trims and fades) as a single file and send it by AirDrop, Messages or email. Your friend opens it straight into SoundPad+ on their iPhone or iPad. Importing a shared page is free.

FREE, WITH AN OPTIONAL ONE-TIME UPGRADE
Free to use with up to 4 pages. One payment, no subscription, unlocks Pro:
• Unlimited pages
• The trim & fade editor
• Export and share pages
• Playback that keeps going when your iPhone locks, with lock-screen controls to pause and resume

No ads, no accounts, no sign-up, no tracking. SoundPad+ works entirely offline.

GOOD FOR
Live music and theatre cues, streaming and podcasting, sound effects and drops, drum and percussion pads, DJ and sampler-style triggers, language and speech practice, classroom and therapy prompts, accessibility boards, or just keeping your favourite clips one tap away.
