FingerBeat vs ThermVoltGe

Turn any sound into a beat. FingerBeat is a pocket sampler, drum machine and tape recorder built for making music on the go, with your fingers and no music theory whatsoever. Record anything with the microphone, drop it on a pad and start playing. Capture a whole instrument phrase and FingerBeat slices it into separate hits automatically, so one recording becomes a playable kit. Draw patterns in the step sequencer, tweak the mix live, sing over the top, and share the result in seconds. FingerBeat is completely free. No ads, no subscriptions, no locked features. MAKE BEATS FROM ANYTHING ● 8 low-latency stereo pads, each with its own channel ● Sample straight from the microphone, the built-in sound library, or any audio file ● Auto-slicing turns one recording into a set of playable hits ● Import music from your library (DRM-free tracks) or from the Files app ● Paste audio from other apps with AudioCopy 3 SEQUENCE WITHOUT THE THEORY ● Step sequencer: tap and draw boxes to build patterns, one color per channel ● 24 pattern blocks with up to 256 steps each ● Keyboard and note editor: what you play appears instantly and can be redrawn with a finger ● Shake to undo, or shake to randomize your sounds for happy accidents TAPE RECORDER AND AUDIO EDITOR ● Record whole sessions, jams, ideas and meetings for later ● Use the reels to set precise in and out points and pull loops ● Scratch over your beats with the tape while the sequencer plays, and overdub the performance ● Cut, paste and drag clips straight into pads PERFORM AND MIX LIVE ● Multi-touch mixer with live effects, designed for hands-on performance ● Live input monitoring so you can sing or rap over your beat in real time ● Audiobus support and Korg WIST wireless sync-start with other music apps ● Everything is saved automatically, so you pick up exactly where you left off SHARE ● Export mixes, loops and samples by AirDrop, Messages, Mail, Files or any app on your device ● Send whole beat projects to friends who use FingerBeat ● Also available through Finder and iTunes file sharing GOOD TO KNOW For the tightest timing, use wired headphones or a wired speaker.

ThermVoltGe is a character-focused germanium distortion processor for iPhone and iPad. Use it as a standalone audio app or insert the included AUv3 effect in a compatible host such as GarageBand. Its nonlinear core is built around an OA91-style germanium-diode architecture. A low forward-voltage threshold, asymmetric conduction, temperature dependency, battery sag, and supply-voltage interaction create early compression and a soft, rounded clipping response. FEATURES - OA91-style germanium diode clipping - Temperature-dependent nonlinear response - Battery sag and supply-voltage control - Instrument and line input modes - Boost stage - Adjustable gain, high-pass filter, tone, drive, and output - 2x and 4x oversampling modes - Standalone iOS/iPadOS app - AUv3 audio effect for compatible hosts TRY BEFORE UNLOCKING The app provides 10 minutes of full-featured active use. Demo time advances only while the standalone app or AUv3 effect is actively being used. After the allowance is used, audio processing is disabled for 24 hours. A one-time, non-consumable In-App Purchase unlocks unlimited use in both the standalone app and AUv3 extension. Restore Purchases is available in the standalone app. Customers whose verified original app version is 1.0.2 or earlier retain full access automatically without an additional purchase. ThermVoltGe is designed for guitar, bass, synthesizers, keyboards, and other sources that benefit from compressed, harmonically rich germanium drive.
