SoundPad Pro Max is a sound player application that allows you to assign up to 150 sound sources to 10 pads and easily play sound source data in iCloudDrive or Dropbox with simple operations. It is a higher version of SoundPad Pro with various playback functions such as fade-in, fade-out, cross-fade, one-shot playback, multi-trigger, loop playback, sequential playback and simultaneous playback for each pad. Also equipped with the "WirelessSpeaker Connection KeepAlive" function that prevents "sound cutout" when playing wireless speakers! Each of the 10 pads can be played individually, so it is possible to play sound effects while playing background music or loop sound sources*1. About loop playback For gapless loop playback, please use wav format sound sources, not compressed sound sources (e.g. mp). Since the music in the device is used, you can use free sound sources available on the Internet by importing them into the library. You can also download sound sources from iCloud Drive or Dropbox and assign them. A Wi-Fi environment is recommended because a high-speed network connection is required for downloading. If you are using a mobile connection, please be sure to subscribe to a subscription before using the service. Also, when downloading a large number of uncompressed audio files, please be careful of the available space on your device. When using the service at events, we recommend that you turn off Wi-Fi or set the device to Airplane mode to prevent unexpected ring tones. Please note that music downloaded from AppleMusic, etc. may not be available due to copyright protection DRM. Various functions operate in various ways depending on the combination of each setting. Even when multiple functions are enabled at the same time, all functions may not operate at the same time due to exclusion control or function conflicts. Recommended devices iPad Pro (4th generation) or later iPad Air (4th generation) or later iPad (8th generation) or later

Transform harmonics and frequencies independently with this multi-curve spectral pitch and frequency shifter. Multi-Curve Spectral Pitching MagicPitch is a multi-curve spectral pitch and frequency shifter designed for detailed control of harmonic and inharmonic motion. Apply independent pitch or frequency shifts per frequency or frequency range to de-tune harmonics, reshape drum transients, or craft otherworldly vocal textures. Pitch vs Frequency Shifting Pitch Shifting scales all frequencies by a common factor, preserving harmonic relationships for musically coherent transpositions. Frequency Shifting adds a fixed frequency amount to all components, changing their harmonic structure for more experimental or inharmonic results. MagicPitch can operate in either mode — or combine both at once — giving you precise control over how harmonic or unstructured the outcome becomes. Detailed Spectral Control Use the Curve Editor to shape thousands of pitch and frequency shifters simultaneously, allowing detailed sculpting across the entire spectrum. Global parameters such as Pitch Offset, Frequency Offset, Balance, and FX Amount provide quick, broad adjustments. MagicPitch is an AUv3 audio effect plugin compatible with Logic Pro, AUM, Cubasis, GarageBand and many more. A Desktop version is also available for Windows and macOS (VST3 / AU / AAX).
