Luis Rivas has just released a playable iOS app designed for beat making, sample editing, playing and sequencing patterns.

Inheriting the best part of classic hardware samplers, Dawnbeat takes things further by adding features only possible on a multi-touch device.

Create more natural patterns by tapping and swiping pads. Focus on creativity, you don’t need to hit record before playing a pattern to get the right take. While you play and experiment, the Memorizer is always recording.

Dawnbeat features

  • Multi-touch pads: Play a single pad with two fingers at the same time, or re-trigger by dragging to get amazing fills with tone variations.
  • 4 pad modes: monophonic, polyphonic, MIDI OUT, and Audio Unit instrument. Import a piano-like sample and play chords with the polyphonic mode. Use MIDI mode to sequence hardware drum machines and synths from Dawnbeat.
  • Built-in mixer includeing 4 assignable busses and one main bus. Assign pads, internal effects and AUV3 effects to the busses.
  • Audio Units host, import your favorite plugins or play with the 12 built-in effects, Reverb, Delay, Compressor, Flutter, Gate, Tremolo, Noise, Filter, Chorus, Equalizer, Stutter and Tape Slow Motion.
  • AutoSlicer detects hit points and slices audio into individual files minimizing the need for manual editing. Chop up any audio file in a few seconds.
  • Sample libraries, variable recording sample rate, export audio and movies, advanced waveform edit and more.

The app is available to download for free at the App Store, with exclusive content available as an in-app purchase for $9.99 USD.
