01 SAMPLE · SYNTH
Generate sounds with the Synth Engine
Describe a sound in plain words — 808 kick, glassy bell, acid 303 bass — and the on-device Synth Engine generates it. Audition, try again for a fresh take, or drop it on a pad.
POCKET SAMPLER · iPHONE An MPC in
An MPC in
your pocket.
Sample anything, generate sounds with the Synth Engine, and build beats on eight pads. Tactus MK1 is a pocket-sized sampler for iPhone.
iPhone only. Free during the TestFlight beta.
WHAT IT DOES
Everything you need to make a beat.
Eight pads, four screens, and a full mix — all on your iPhone.
02 SAMPLE · MIC
Record your own
Hold a pad to sample straight from the mic. Stack layers on top, or run your voice through the vocoder for a robotized synth.
03 PLAY
Eight pads, always the same
Tap the 4x2 grid to perform. The same eight sounds follow you across the Sample, Play, and Step screens.
04 PLAY · FX
Shape every pad
Per-pad filter cutoff and resonance on an XY pad, plus volume, delay, drive, reverb, and pitch. One-shot or sustain.
05 STEP
Program patterns
A 16-step sequencer with a moving playhead. Add bars, then build verse, chorus, and fill as separate patterns that switch cleanly at the loop.
06 MASTER
Mix it down
Master volume with an output meter, reverb presets, tempo-synced delay, and a limiter that keeps the output clean. Tap to set the tempo.
07 TRANSPORT
Capture a live take
Arm record and play — your pad hits and knob moves are captured and replay on the next loop. Quantize snaps them to the grid.
08 PROJECTS
Save, render, and share
Projects auto-save as you work. Render a pattern onto a pad, bounce it to audio, or export the whole project to back up or share.
THE IDEA
Eight pads. Four screens. A whole studio that fits in one hand.
