Ohms Sample vs ScopeNode

Ohms Sample turns any sound into a touch instrument and a generative loom. It is native on macOS and iPadOS, with all audio kept on your device. ONE PLAYABLE SURFACE * Orbit, Pulse steps, Mutation gestures, trigger pads, and a collapsible snapshot bank share one large instrument view; only Take opens a separate workspace. * Reweave sits beside transport and redraws the visible routes as it changes them. * Choose System, Light, or Dark appearance. PLAY AND EDIT * Slicer taps the waveform; Looper compresses a two-finger loop into grain; Tape scrubs speed and direction; Keyboard plays one slice chromatically. * Scroll and zoom the PCM-derived Sample Canvas from 1× to 8×. * Select a range, cut it or keep only it, reverse it, and apply pitch-preserving stretch from 50% to 200%. * Restore the untouched source at any time. * Detect and drag up to 16 transient-aware slices, with tune, volume, pan, attack, release, reverse, and loop per slice. WEAVE THE ORBIT * Draw weighted routes between the sample's circular slice arcs. * A seeded engine walks those weights while the live playhead makes every choice visible. * Run a 1–64 step Pulse lane, each step with its own openness. * Arm four weighted Mutation gestures per slice: stutter, reverse, speed, and scratch. * Morph across a 3×4 snapshot bank and punch in with four manual trigger pads. GRAIN AND EFFECTS * A preallocated native Swift engine renders up to 128 grain voices with position, size, density, pitch, jitter, reverse probability, and stereo spread. * Add resonant low-pass or high-pass filtering, feedback delay, and reverb. KEYBOARD AND MIDI * On Mac, A–P play the sixteen pads unless Sample Brain search is explicitly focused. * Generic MIDI controllers can use notes 36–51 or 60–75 for pads and 52–55 for triggers. * Learn CCs for grain, FX, and morph controls; receive and send MIDI clock; use virtual ports; and echo Orbit decisions as notes. LAUNCHPAD HARDWARE * Launchpad Mini MK3, X, and Pro MK3 get sixteen large 2×2 color blocks on Pads, plus focused Weave, Pulse, and Memory pages. * The on-screen mirror and hardware LEDs use the same direct visual language. CAPTURE SAFELY AND SEARCH LOCALLY * File and folder controls open system pickers. Sample Brain indexes any number of chosen folders for local search. * Microphone capture is armed only in Take. Finished audio stays staged beside the loaded sample until you choose Use Recording or Keep Current. * On macOS, Sample Anything can freeze the last 60 seconds of system audio from an in-memory buffer — audio only, never screen frames — with the same staged decision. EXPORT, SESSIONS, AND AUv3 * Export the edited audio as WAV, or save sample, slices, weave, mutations, snapshots, FX, and grain as a session. * The full generative engine and insert FX run sample-accurately in a macOS and iPadOS AUv3 instrument with 23 automatable parameters and host-saved state. Each instance keeps its own sample and can follow host tempo. * The AUv3 requests no microphone, file, screen-capture, or network access. PRIVATE BY CONSTRUCTION * No account, analytics, telemetry, advertising, cloud, or network calls. * No subscription or in-app purchase. $29.99 once for macOS and iPadOS as a universal purchase. REQUIREMENTS * macOS 14 or later, or iPadOS 17 or later. Sample Anything is macOS-only; microphone recording works on both.

ScopeNode is a multi-input oscilloscope, capable of visualizing multiple tracks layered on top of each other. The plugin features a suite of phase alignment tools built around an interactive visual workflow tailored specifically for the low end. These can help eliminate low-frequency clashes at the source so your tracks layer perfectly without heavy reliance on aggressive sidechain dips. The result is a much smoother, more fluid bass response. Beyond phase alignment, ScopeNode is perfect for visualizing how individual components line up, checking delays between signal points, or analyzing precise pre and post waveform differences across third-party plugins or subchains. FEATURES: - Free-Running & Beat-Synced Modes - 4-Layer Scope Matrix + Live Summing: Layer up to four audio tracks simultaneously with a real-time composite summing view for instant clash detection - Separate controls for visualization and sum inclusion to accommodate special use cases (optional) - Phase shifter with configurable center frequency and Q factor (one per track) - Sample grid delay, phase invert, gain control also available for each track - Multi-instance workflow: Drop plugin instances ("probes") anywhere in your signal paths to capture and compare tracks instantly TECHNICAL NOTES: - When enabled, it's recommended to verify that Plug-in Latency Compensation is not affecting synchronization in unexpected ways with the given set of active third-party plugins - Manual phase alignment is an advanced, hands-on process that requires time and active engineering effort, depending on the complexity of the tracks involved - Workflows could be greatly impacted by specific features of your DAW, e.g. ease of automation envelope editing, ways of laying out multiple viewports, etc. PLEASE NOTE: • An AUv3-compatible host is required to use this app (true interoperability can vary across different apps) • Please check our support page for a list of compatible host applications • Officially supported sampling rates: 44.1, 48, 96 kHz
