See your music in motion. MusicEcho turns sound into terrain, light and lightning that react in real time. Bass shapes the landscape, high frequencies illuminate the details, and each change in your music takes a visible form. • Terrain and lightning: switch between two visual effects from the home screen preview cards. • Color themes: choose a palette or let colors follow the artwork of a recognized song. • Song recognition: see the identified song and its artwork, with alternative cover editions when available. • Your viewpoint: drag to orbit and pinch to zoom into the scene. • Every screen: enjoy layouts for iPhone, iPad and Mac, in portrait or landscape. On iPhone and iPad, allow microphone access to react to music playing around you. On Mac, allow system audio capture to visualize your computer's sound. MusicEcho is a music visualizer; it does not provide music streaming or song playback. Bring a moving backdrop to your music at a party, on your desk or during a quiet evening. Questions or ideas?

Wavepocket is a pocket studio: a synthesizer, drum kit, sampler and 4-track tape recorder that fit in your hand. Play it with your fingers: multi-touch chords, glissando slides across the keys, drum pads, and four color-coded encoders that always control what you're looking at. MAKE A SOUND: Analog (saw–square with sub), FM, and Cluster Engines • A sampler engine: play any recording chromatically across the keys • Slice samples on the waveform, name each slice, and flip between them • ADSR envelope, resonant filter, env→cutoff, LFO • Presets by category (bass, keys, strings, brass, lead, pad, pluck, bell). MAKE A BEAT: Synthesized 8-pad drum kit: kick, snare, hats, clap, tom, rim, bell • Kit-wide tune, decay, tone and level • Arpeggiator (up / down / up-down / random) and metronome MAKE A TRACK: 4-track tape with a clip timeline: record in any mode, then drag clips between lanes, trim their edges, and cut at the playhead • Everything shares one loop boundary, so your layers always line up • Mixer with per-track level, pan and mute • Filtered delay and spring-style reverb sends. KEEP EVERYTHING: Every tweak is versioned: undo, redo, or scrub the timeline of your session and annotate the versions worth keeping • Recordings and imports persist on your device between sessions • Save the whole project with settings, history, presets and audio as a single file, and render your mix to MP3 NO STRINGS: No account, no ads, no tracking • Works completely offline • Nothing leaves your device
