Octopod

OctoPod is an amazing and fun to use mini recording studio for the iPhone and iPod touch that’s right in your pocket! It has a simple and intuitive interface that doesn’t require an engineering degree to figure out, and does it all without skimping on pro features.

OctoPod includes a collection of 72 amazing drum grooves spanning 12 styles. They are professionally produced and made just for OctoPod. No repetitive 1 bar loops that sound boring, dated or cheesy, but fresh and inspiring 4 to 8 bar patterns that sound real and “feel” right. There simply is no other iPhone app with better sounding drums!

Examples of what you can do with OctoPod:

– Use it for practicing: record yourself or someone else playing chords, then practice singing, scales, improvisation, a song you’re learning, whatever you want. Or just use the drum grooves as a drum machine to keep you in time.

– Record a song with your band: select *no drums* from the drum groove wheel, hook up your iPhone or iPod Touch to a mixer with a Camcorder AV cable and use mics, headphones, speakers, any audio gear you have to record your next big hit.

– Use OctoPod to record your ideas when you’re on the road. Or if you need some inspiration, pick a drum groove, start jamming and see where the music takes you.

– Record a cover song and show off your vocals: pick the drum groove that fits, have a friend play guitar (keys, synth etc.), add a bass line and then sing or rap over it. Wi-Fi Export to your computer, drag and drop into Garageband (or similar software) and add reverb, auto tune, delay or any other effects you want.
