CACHE vs Limn Audio Generator

CACHE is a fast and simple sample browser for iPhone, iPad, and AUv3 hosts. It lets you open your own sample folders, browse collections instantly, preview audio files, detect sample key, and drag sounds straight into compatible apps and hosts. Built for producers who work across iOS and iPadOS, CACHE solves a problem that has been strangely overlooked for years: some DAWs and AUv3 hosts still don’t include a proper sample browser. Until now, that often meant digging through Files, switching between apps, and dragging samples in from outside your music workflow. CACHE puts that missing browser exactly where you need it. Use CACHE to: Browse your own sample folders and subfolders Preview one-shots and loops quickly Detect likely sample key for one-shots Drag samples directly into compatible DAWs, hosts, and apps Access collections from local storage, cloud locations, or external drives CACHE does not include any samples and does not make sound on its own beyond sample preview. You must supply your own sample folders. CACHE also does not copy or store your samples internally. It simply bookmarks and browses the folders you choose, so it won’t take up extra storage space with duplicate sample libraries. That makes it especially useful if your sounds live on external storage or outside the app itself.

Limn is a touch-first iOS groovebox built for speed, expression, and flow. Sketch ideas quickly, shape patterns in multiple sequencer styles, perform live with hands-on controls, sync with your setup over MIDI, and export stereo WAV files without leaving the app. Whether you are building loops, jamming transitions, or capturing full ideas for your DAW, Limn keeps the process immediate and musical. Core Features Multiple sequencing approaches in one app Fast pattern creation designed for real-time experimentation Expressive performance controls for live play Global effects and mix shaping BLE MIDI and virtual MIDI routing MIDI clock and transport sync workflows Stereo WAV export with in-app share support Landscape-focused interface for performance clarity Built For Fast Creative Workflow Limn is designed to reduce friction between inspiration and output. Use quick controls to move from initial rhythm and melody ideas to evolving patterns and performance-ready scenes. Morph and variation workflows help keep patterns alive without breaking momentum. MIDI + External Workflow Friendly Connect Limn to compatible DAWs and hardware via Bluetooth MIDI or virtual routes, then integrate it into your existing setup. Use sync tools to keep timing aligned and move between standalone creation and external production smoothly. Export and Share When a sketch becomes a keeper, bounce a stereo WAV directly from Limn and share it instantly. Great for idea capture, collaboration, arrangement handoff, or quick posting.
