How It Works — Screen by Screen Projects Your studio home and project overview. Projects store everything tied to a song: your vibe “seed,” your progress, and where you left off. Open an existing draft to continue, or tap + to start a new one and set your vibe again. You can: Create, rename, and delete drafts Adjust genre, mood, energy, tempo, and lyric direction Jump into the rest of the workflow from a single place Best for: managing projects and making high-level decisions (not building audio/lyrics). Sample Library Browse and choose the building blocks of your instrumental. Preview tempo-matched loops, search by name/vibe/tag/instrument, and add loops to your project. You can reuse loops for hooks and callbacks — the app tracks how often you’ve used each one. You can: Preview loops Add loops to your project (including re-adding) Search and explore by tags, vibe, or instruments Tip: shorter arrangements perform best — you’ll see a warning as your loop count grows. Producer Build and refine your instrumental arrangement. This is where your track takes shape. Arrange loops by section, preview parts, play your full song, and experiment with structure. You can also capture quick ideas with voice notes and text notes while you listen. You can: Arrange and preview loops Repeat loops (up to 4×) Play your full arrangement (or a section) Record voice notes and write notes while building Note: Producer Coach may warn you as the arrangement gets long to keep playback and rendering smooth. Lyrics Write, generate, and refine lyrics — your way. Write section-by-section (Intro, Verse, Chorus, Bridge, Outro) or view everything at once. Use writing lenses to guide structure and phrasing. You can blend up to two lenses per project and change them anytime. You can: Write lyrics manually Generate lyrics by section Improve, replace, or continue what you’ve written View full lyrics and edit anytime Track Record vocals, sync, mix, and export. Render your instrumental, record one or more vocal takes while viewing lyrics full-screen, then fine-tune timing with sync controls. When it’s ready, export and share using iOS sharing. You can: Render your instrumental Record multiple vocal takes Adjust vocal sync timing Preview playback Create and share a final mix

Bounce is a full music studio in your pocket — start from a prompt, a sample, a song you want to flip, or a blank session, and every piece stays yours to edit. SHARE IT — NEW Turn any project into a link anyone can open and play — no app required. They tap to listen, then "Open in Bounce to remix" drops the whole editable project on their timeline. Export a vertical video for TikTok/Reels in one tap, with a reactive visualizer. Invite a friend and you both get credits. START BY TYPING A VIBE — NEW First launch: describe what you want — "dark drill in F minor," "sunny afrobeats" — and a full, editable project is waiting for you. FLIP IT — NOW IN TEMPO Pick any song and Bounce pulls it apart: vocals, drums, bass, and the rest, each an editable track. New in 2.9: Bounce detects the song's tempo, so the stems land in time and follow the project's BPM. (Flip music you have the rights to use.) PLAY & CHOP — NEW SAMPLER The Perform pads got a redesign: a waveform strip shows your sample, drag the chop points wherever the hits are, and each pad lights its slice as you play. SPARK — FROM PROMPT TO PROJECT Type what you want and Spark builds a full, editable project in seconds. Re-roll any part and it stays in key and in harmony — even after you close the app. TALK TO YOUR PROJECT "Make it darker." "Re-roll the drums." "More reverb on the melody." Every change undoable in one tap. BOOTH — RECORD VOCALS Lyrics on screen, takes, comping, punch-in, vocal tune, one-tap vocal chains. PLUS THE FULL STUDIO • Multi-track recording, tempo-synced loops, cycle playback • A real mixer with honest meters + auto-mix that listens • AUv3 instruments and effects, Bounce Sampler • Generate a Sound & Sing a Hook (editable AI clips, credits) • Export a finished mix, stems, a social video, or a shareable link What you make is yours.
