Turn your iPad into a sampling workstation
November 19, 2010 · Posted in Uncategorized
Sample Lab is a new app for the iPad that turns it into a sampling workstation.
Features:
- Pinch-zoom precision sample editor lets you select your audio and drag it right onto a track.
- 8 stereo tracks @ 44.1kHz with per-beat volume control.
- Pitch-shifting preserves time and gives you 2 full octaves from one sample; without chipmunking.
- Record your own samples, or import wav & mp3 files using iTunes.
- Trigger pads for tapping-in patterns or stand-alone performance.
- 4 real-time DSP FX: compressor, bit crusher, resonant cutoff, and phaser.
- Shuffle control for syncopation.
- Over 100 samples included to get you started.
- Audio Copy & Paste to share with other apps.
- Upload your mixdowns to SoundCloud to collaborate & share.
- Import new samples using iTunes.

Sample Pad is expected to be available in the app store as soon as iOS 4.2 is released to iPad. Pricing is to be announced. See the SampleLabApp site for details.
