EP-PatchStudio builds sample kits and multisamples for Teenage Engineering's EP-series hardware, then sends them to your device over USB. Now on iPhone and iPad. If you own an EP-133 K.O. II, EP-1320 or EP-40 Riddim, you know the squeeze: great sounds, a tiny screen and a slow road from a sample on your computer to a pad on your sampler. This app is the shortcut. Import audio, trim it, build a kit and load it onto the hardware. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Import WAV and AIFF from Files, iCloud Drive or straight from another app via the share sheet - Trim, fade and set the start and end of every sample by touch - Build full kits, lay out pads and tune each one (max 8 samples - EP device limitation) - Create multisamples for the EP-40 Riddim, mapped across the keyboard - Send finished kits to your device over USB MIDI - Export kits and backups to Files, AirDrop or your DAW WORKS WITH - EP-133 K.O. II - EP-1320 Medieval - EP-40 Riddim Multisamples are EP-40 Riddim only. No hardware to hand? You can still build and edit everything, then export it for later. Plug in over USB when you are ready to send. FREE AND PRO The Sample Editor is free. Building kits, trimming samples and exporting all work without paying anything. Pro unlocks sending kits straight to your device, as a one-off in-app purchase. Buy once, no subscription. Already bought EP-PatchStudio on Mac or Windows? Enter your licence key to unlock the same here. A NOTE FROM ME I am a solo developer and a sampler nerd. I built EP-PatchStudio because I wanted grown-up software for these little machines, and I keep improving it based on what the community asks for. If something is missing or broken, tell me.

Wavelength Pro Audio Editor
Read full descriptionHide full description
Wavelength is a classic waveform audio editor for people who record, edit, and send audio every day - journalists in the field, clinicians, podcasters, anyone who lives on a waveform. Record a take, trim it on the wave, clean it up, mark the quotes, and export at the right level. It works the way desktop wave editors always have - a big waveform, menu-driven editing, and the keyboard habits your hands already know - rebuilt as a fast, native app for iPhone and iPad. RECORD - Record straight from the microphone with live meters and a scrolling waveform. - Every take autosaves to a Vault - nothing is ever lost, and you can reopen any recording from Open Recent. EDIT ON THE WAVEFORM - Cut, copy, paste, mix, crossfade, and trim directly on the wave. - Deep undo, so you can experiment without fear of losing the take. A FULL PROCESSING MENU - Normalize, fade in/out, time stretch (pitch-preserving), pitch shift, reverse, and DC-offset removal. - Loudness normalize toward broadcast levels for delivery. MARKERS, REGIONS & DELIVERY - Drop markers and define regions to mark the moments that matter. - Export regions, or the whole file, to WAV, MP3, or AAC - at the level the other end expects. MORE - A separate multitrack view (four lanes, clip blocks, volume envelopes, mixdown) for assembling packages. - Eight interface themes, from dark slate to porcelain. - Keyboard-first: J/K/L shuttle, space transport, the classic key habits. Wavelength has no account and no sign-in. Your recordings stay on your device - nothing is uploaded, no analytics, no tracking.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Wavelength Pro Audio Editor at none against EP's 1. Wavelength Pro Audio Editor also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs monthly). EP's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
