DoomLoop vs Audio Object

DOOM LOOP is a stem-based loop machine built from the Doom Cougar catalog. Seven channels — kick, bass, snare, hats, acid, perc, and FX — each loaded with eight loops pulled from real Doom Cougar tracks. Tap a pad to bring that loop in. Tap another to swap it out on the next bar. Everything stays at 138 BPM. Everything stays in time. There is no beat-matching, no syncing, no waveforms to wrestle with. The tempo is fixed. The bars are fixed. The loops swap clean. WHAT'S IN IT - 56 loops from the Doom Cougar catalog — Crease, Creature, Hematoma, Mothers Milk, Parlor Floor, Savage Wit, Shag Chain, Yule, and more - 7 channels — one loop at a time per channel, plus a one-shot FX channel for stabs and vocal hits - 138 BPM master tempo with every stem pitched to match - 3-band EQ on every channel — low, mid, high - Independent volume on every channel - Per-channel lock — protect a loop you like before randomizing - Random — roll the dice on every unlocked channel, queued to the next bar - Bar / beat indicator with 4-LED beat readout HOW IT WORKS Tap a pad to load that loop. If a channel is already playing, the new pick is queued — it swaps in clean on the next downbeat. No bumps. No dropouts. No drift. Lock the channels you want to keep. Randomize the rest. Walk a track from a stripped-down kick-and-acid groove into a full mix and back without touching the play button. This is Doom Cougar's catalog, taken apart and handed back to you. Build new tracks. Wreck old ones. Nothing here gets out of time. 138 BPM. 7 channels. 56 stems. One bar at a time.

Audio Object is a pocket-sized music instrument for iPhone. It looks and works like a small piece of hardware — a wooden body with an instrument panel on each face. Pull the wood edge and the body rotates to the next face. WHAT IT DOES - Four-track looper with bar-quantized recording and per-loop trim - Three-voice drum machine as the click track — kick, snare, hi-hat with a per-step accent grid - Eight-pad sampler with grid, auto, and tap chopping, two switchable banks, three-band EQ, varispeed tuning - Project save, load, and WAV stem export with tempo map - Streams audio to any Mac DAW over USB (Inter-Device Audio & MIDI) - Sends MIDI clock over USB — Ableton, Logic, and Bitwig lock transport to the phone - Records stereo from any Core Audio interface (iRig, Focusrite, MOTU, and others) HOW IT WORKS Six faces. Perform pads on one, sampler on another, click and time signature on a third, projects on the back, I/O on top, master on the bottom. No menus, no tabs. Every control lives on the body. The click track is not a metronome. It is a three-voice drum machine with per-step accents, subdivisions from quarter notes to swing, and time signatures from 3/4 to 12/8. Set up a kick-snare-hat pattern, press record, loop on the beat. The sampler holds eight pads across two banks. Record from the mic or load from Files. Chop by grid, by transient, or by tapping markers. Each pad carries a three-band EQ, varispeed pitch, and an amplitude envelope. All eight play polyphonically. Recording quantizes to the bar, the beat, or runs free. A dedicated loop-adjust face trims each loop to the sample — drag the region brackets, snap to the grid, hear the result while the brackets move. Plug the phone into a Mac over USB. Audio Object appears as an audio input and MIDI clock source. The DAW locks transport to the phone's tempo. No drivers, no setup. Plug a USB audio interface into the phone. Audio Object names the device on screen and records through its preamps at up to 48 kHz stereo. WHAT IS NEXT A synthesizer — bass, chord, and lead modes — is in development for the next major release.
