## What is WBTRK?

WBTRK is a complete music studio in your pocket: a fast tracker grid, 21 sound engines, a library of over 450 ready-made sounds, drum kits, a sampler, per-note effects, a twelve-channel mixer, a live performance mode, plug-in hosting and MIDI. One purchase for iPhone, iPad and Mac.

WRITE
  • PHRASES of 16 steps hold notes, chords, instrument, velocity and effects; they stack into CHAINS, and chains arrange into a twelve-channel SONG
  • Hold a cell and slide to set a note or a value — it plays as you go
  • Select, copy and paste cell by cell, transpose whole sections, and end a note exactly where you want with OFF
  • Every channel loops on its own and can run at its own tempo, locked to one clock
  • A hardware keyboard on iPad and Mac, a MIDI keyboard, or any Bluetooth game controller drives the whole tracker

SOUND
  • Over 450 ready-made sounds sorted by what they are — drums, bass, keys, bells, plucked, strings, winds, voice, leads, pads, fx — each one a tap away from playing, all balanced to the same loudness. Save your own for any engine
  • DRUM KIT: ten drum slots in one instrument — eight built-in kits, or build your own from any sound or sample
  • Classic synths: pulse, saw, triangle, FM, noise, supersaw pad, sub, pluck, wavetable and the dual-oscillator MODX, plus DRUM, an analog drum voice
  • WOVEN, a macro-oscillator with 24 models and 96 classic DX7 patches; ROUND, a resonator for strings, bars and bells; MODAL for struck percussion
  • SAMPLER: record or import, chop at transients, stretch to the tempo, loop, reverse, round-robin                                             
  • SPEECH sings your lyrics in English and Japanese; GRAIN turns any recording into clouds; DRONE, RESONATOR and TEXTURE build ambient beds
  • AUv3 hosting: play your instrument plug-ins and insert effect plug-ins on any channel

SHAPE
  • 32 effects on any note: delays, reverbs up to thirty seconds, tempo-synced gate and autopan, retrigger, chorus, flanger, ring mod, wavefold, bitcrush, slides, vibrato, arps, FOGGY granular clouds and more
  • AUT automation morphs an instrument and its effect across the rows
  • RANDOM dice, tables for instant arpeggios, a groove editor per instrument, scale lock
  • A twelve-channel mixer with volume, pan, mute, solo and plug-in inserts

PERFORM
  • LIVE MODE: launch phrases from six scenes on pads, quantized to the beat or the bar, and punch in delay and filters — or latch them                    

CONNECT
  • MIDI in with step and live recording, MIDI out to hardware, MIDI clock and Ableton Link
  
KEEP                                                    
  • Render to WAV (16 or 24 bit), stems and MIDI; share songs as files; your session autosaves
  • A lock-screen player with cover art in your theme
  • 28 themes — the studio look comes in dark and light and can follow your device — a theme editor, seven typefaces, hex numbers if you like
  • English and Japanese, and a demo song to start from
                                                          
  Everything runs on your device. No account, no ads, no subscription, nothing collected.

### 5/5 — Best Tracker on iOS, can confirm

*2026-10-02*

THIS is the iOS tracker that finally takes advantage of the whole music app ecosystem. FINALLY you can use your AUV3 instruments and effects in a tracker. That isn’t the only thing that sets it apart from other trackers. It has a true touch menu focus, where you can interact with directly with the screen elements, and not just to a means to move a cursor around, like on the M8. The app really highlights the positives of using a tracker, where the ease of navigating around the songs, chains, and phrases shows off just how fast the tracker workflow can be. I’ve always been frustrated with drawing in notes on a piano roll, particularly on the iPad, where a note block can be easy to bump by accident. There is a workflow to learn, but it doesn’t have to feel like programming, as here you can play in notes right to the phrase. It just makes so much more sense to represent notes this way, where they can be seen all at once, and not spread across multiple different piano rolls. But even if you like getting MIDI put together in that format, you can still do that, and bring in your MIDI into the project. Just a fantastic app, and one that can be the centerpiece of your work.

### 5/5 — Best Audio Tracker on the App Store

*2026-09-15*

This app beats the M8 for three reasons: polyphony, Auv3 support and 12 tracks. Not to mention price!!! It also has a unique selection ring input method that provides fast workflow. If it adds game controller support it will be unstoppable! It is worth the price just for the crazy voice synth!!!

**Developer response:** Thank you for the kind words! Game controller support is on the TODO list, you can expect it soon!

### 5/5 — iOS Tracker? Yes, please.

*2026-09-15*

This is the best tracker for iPad I’ve found. I have a Dirtywave M8 (hardware) and Renoise (Mac). The M8 app on iPad is lacking in features. WBTRK hits the sweet spot. Love it! Note to developer:  please add arrow key keyboard input for changing notes in record/edit mode for ease of quick changes. Also, please add Braids and Plaits engines. I respect the work you put into the current engine, but I do love Mutable when I can get it ;p)

**Developer response:** Thank you! Game controller support is coming, so at the same time it will be an easy add to enable it for the arrow keys as well. For now you can use your keyboard as piano keys for fast input, similar as in Renoise. I hear you with Mutable Instruments! I have done a quick check and it's definitely possible, so it's going on my TODO list as well.

### 5/5 — Amazing Tool!

*2026-07-29*

Wow, what an amazing tool, almost like the M8! So cool! 
Would be super awesome if it could not only host AUv3 Instruments, but AUv3 FX as well. Especially since Eventide FX/FabFilter Plugins are a thing on mobile these days!

**Developer response:** Thank you for the great feedback! I will look into the Auv3 FX, hopefully it can come to the app in the next release!

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2026-07-26*

Trackers Forever. Extraordinarily well thought out, moves the trad workflow into a fluid touch app future. Radial menus, AUv3, sample chopping etc etc. Top of the platform.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the kind words, happy that you like it!
