Free companion to Quota Voice on your Mac or Windows. Pair it once, then run your whole beat setup by talking — from the couch, the kitchen, the car — while your computer does the heavy lifting. You're scrolling and a track's got a break in it. Say "stem California Reaper by LoFi Charlie" and by the time you're back at the desk there's a warped Ableton set with the parts split out, waiting. Say "build a song kit out of this track" and the whole thing's a playable kit — pads in Live and on the Force. Pull a line out of a video and make it a pad. It all happens on the computer. The phone just tells it what to do. WHAT YOU CAN SAY - Stems — 4, 6, or 10 parts, with warped Ableton and Akai projects cued up - Grab one thing — just the vocals, just the drums, one clean WAV - Kits — song kits, drum racks, Selector Pads at 16, 64, or 128 samples - Chops — pull a line out of any video and turn it into a kit - Your own files — "stem Made You Look from my music folder," or batch a whole folder into one set THE CRATE Hear a break while you're deep in TikTok, IG, or YouTube? Share it to Quota Voice without leaving the app. Fire a shortcut right there, or drop it in the Crate for later. SHORTCUTS Build your own one-tap buttons — a name, an icon, a stack of actions. Stack more than one and it runs as a chain: one tap, one Face ID, everything runs in order. DICTATE Turn the phone into a mic for your computer. One Face ID arms a session and everything you say types live at your cursor — or files itself as a note in your synced folder. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your voice never leaves this phone. Speech is transcribed on-device — only text is ever sent. Everything travels sealed, end to end; the keys live only on your phone and your computer, made the moment you scanned the pairing code. The relay in the middle is blind. No accounts. No third-party SDKs. No analytics. And nothing runs until your Face ID signs that exact command. WHAT YOU NEED Quota Voice on your Mac or Windows machine (getquota.app) — it pairs with this app and runs everything you ask for. Add Quota Stems, Quota Kits, or Quota DS for the job at hand. Pair more than one computer and switch between them anytime. Rare Data — getquota.app
