Everyday Looper is a live-looping app for iPhone and iPad with synchronized video recording and echo cancellation for looping through the speaker without headphones. Try everything free for 7 days, then choose a one-time lifetime purchase or a subscription. You get 8 tracks that you control directly. Touch a track to record, mix, mute, merge or overdub. The first recording defines the base loop, and the other tracks stay synchronized with it. The app includes: • 8 audio tracks with live waveforms • Direct touch controls for recording, mixing, muting, merging and more • Adaptive track lengths from 2× to 16× the base loop • 10-level undo and redo on each track • Half-speed, double-speed and reverse controls for each track • A built-in metronome with a count-in to start recording hands-free • Support for wired and wireless headphones plus compatible USB audio interfaces • Sample-accurate latency compensation RECORD THE PERFORMANCE Everyday Looper can record synchronized video while you perform. The app captures the loop audio, animated tracks and camera together. After recording, you can choose from several video layouts and save or share the finished video. LOOP WITHOUT HEADPHONES Echo cancellation lets you record while the loop plays through the device’s speaker. You can use Everyday Looper without headphones and without recording the existing loop back into every new track. REBUILT FROM THE ORIGINAL The first Everyday Looper launched in 2009. Encouraged by singers, beatboxers and loop artists who still used it, I rebuilt it from the ground up for today’s iPhones and iPads. It preserves the original direct-touch track control while adding more tracks, improved audio handling, echo cancellation, per-track editing and synchronized video recording. TRY IT FREE, THEN CHOOSE YOUR PLAN Everyday Looper requires a one-time lifetime purchase or a Full Access subscription (monthly or yearly). Every plan includes all the features listed above. The yearly plan starts with a 7-day free trial, so you can try everything before paying. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Most tuners give every instrument the same screen. Tuner Master doesn't. Pick your instrument and you get a tuner built for it: a guitar headstock with the pegs where they actually are, an 88-key piano keyboard that scrolls to the note you just played, a guzheng board with all 21 strings and the bridges laid out on the diagonal, a kalimba with its tines in the real alternating order. ACCURATE WHERE IT MATTERS Tuner Master uses the McLeod pitch method with FFT-based autocorrelation — the same family of technique used in professional tuning software. It reads everything from the low B of a 5-string bass to the top C of a piano, and it doesn't jump an octave when your instrument has strong overtones. SEVEN INSTRUMENTS, SEVEN SCREENS • Guitar — 6 strings, pegs split left and right like the real headstock • Bass Guitar — 4 and 5 string, built for the deep low range • Piano — all 88 keys, A0 to C8, scrolling keyboard • Guzheng — 21 strings in D pentatonic with movable bridges • Pipa — 4 strings, A-D-E-A • Kalimba — 17 tines in C, laid out exactly as on the instrument • Bamboo Flute — check your intonation note by note as you play BUILT FOR HOW YOU ACTUALLY TUNE • Tap a string to hear its reference tone • Auto mode follows whichever string is closest, and holds steady instead of jumping between them • A moving pitch trail shows whether the note is settling or still drifting • A gentle buzz confirms the moment a string is right — and only after it has held for a full second, so a needle sweeping past the centre never fools you PREMIUM (one purchase, yours forever) • Alternate tunings: Drop D, DADGAD, Open G, Open D, half step down, 5-string bass, G pentatonic guzheng, G-C-D-G pipa, 21-key kalimba • Reference pitch from 415 to 466 Hz, plus transpose — for period instruments and ensemble work • Chromatic Pro: any note from A0 to C8, with your choice of how strict the in-tune range is • No ads, and a log of everything you have tuned Free includes all seven instruments at standard tuning. No account, no subscription, nothing to sign up for. Audio is processed on your device and never recorded or uploaded.
