SPULE

SPULE is a reel-to-reel recorder that turns your iPhone into a classic tape machine. Capture audio snippets, organize them onto virtual cassettes, and relive the tactile charm of vintage recording, with the power and convenience of your iPhone. SPULE records high-quality audio on the fly and groups your takes onto virtual "cassettes," just like old-school tapes. Each cassette is a collection of your recordings, and its paper label shows the cassette's name. Everything happens on one screen: functional transport buttons, spinning reels you can touch and turn, and a live level meter and waveform, and an effects section with tactile faders and tiles. >> FEATURES - Record high-quality audio instantly - Organize recordings onto virtual cassettes - A single-screen reel-to-reel deck with transport buttons and animated reels - Touch a reel to stop the tape and turn it to scrub: clockwise plays forward, counter-clockwise plays backward - Double-tap Play for reverse playback - Hold a reel during playback to pause, release to resume - Repeat a sample without a gap - Six effects, set separately for every sample and saved with it: - Pitch: up to 12 semitones up or down - Level: evens out quiet and loud passages, great for voice recordings - Echo: a tape echo with mix, time, feedback, tone, wobble and drive - Reverb: mix, decay, pre-delay, size and tone - Lo-fi: bit crushing and sample-rate reduction, plus low and high cut, for the sound of an old sampler or a cheap radio - Tape: the sound of a worn cassette, with wow, flutter, saturation and hiss - Lock the effects to avoid accidental fader changes during playback - Record tape loops of 0.5 to 30 seconds and shape them live with feedback, wobble and tone - See a waveform of every take - Stereo LED level meters with peak hold - Customize cassette labels and colors - Share recordings with other apps - Pick your input: built-in mic, wired or Bluetooth headset, USB or Lightning microphone - Choose recording quality (Low / Medium / High) and format (M4A/AAC, ALAC, WAV, AIFF) - Optionally tag recordings with where they were made - Optionally sync your cassettes, recordings and effect settings across your devices with iCloud Drive - Everything stays on your device unless you turn on iCloud Drive. SPULE has no accounts and no tracking >> WHAT YOU CAN DO AND WHAT YOU CANNOT - You can capture audio and play it back with authentic tape-deck controls - You can scrub through a take by turning the reels like a real machine - You can create, name, and color your own cassettes to build mixtape-style collections - You can shape every sample with pitch, level, echo, reverb, lo-fi and tape effects - You can record tape loops with feedback, wobble and tone - You can share your recordings with other apps - You can keep your library in iCloud Drive and use it on all your devices - You cannot edit in multitrack: SPULE is a tape recorder, not a DAW
