Novation has announced that its Blocs Wave music making app for iPad and iPhone is now free to download.
Blocs Wave for iOS, the simple and beautifully designed app for making and recording new music, is now free to download on the Apple app store. Two extended features, ‘Slicer’ and ‘Audio Import’, are now available as In-App Purchases. These let you chop up and play with your sounds, and bring in your own samples.
For new and pro music makers alike, Blocs Wave offers unique ways to combine pro-sounds to build up original musical ideas. For performers, Blocs Wave can also be used as a real-time loop recording tool that can record and capture your ideas on the go.
The free option also lets you tweak and edit your sounds, and then build on your ideas to create more advanced musical sections. For advanced users, the tempo can be changed in real time. With Ableton Link and Ableton Export, Blocs Wave can be your go to music app on either iPad or iPhone.
