recent stars not readable yet: new ratings are a tiny share of the total
Review momentum
65/100
faster than 75% of Music apps
Review momentum (0-100) blends how fast the app collects ratings compared with other apps in its category (60%), whether that pace is speeding up (25%) and what recent raters give it (15%; recent stars well below lifetime pull it down). Ratings counts are read daily. A jump usually means a launch, a feature, ads or a new review prompt.
About GlitchBud 8x8 Realtime FX
GlitchBud is a live glitch effect for your whole rig. Put it across up to 8 stereo tracks and play rolls, stutters, shuffles, tape stops, reverses, gates and frozen textures
from one pad grid.
Hold a pad to glitch the music. Let go, and the dry audio returns. There is nothing to record or load first: GlitchBud always listens, so every pad is ready the moment you
touch it.
WHY GLITCHBUD
• 8 stereo inputs, 8 stereo outputs. Most glitch effects sit on one stereo track. GlitchBud passes 8 separate lanes, and you patch each pad to the lanes you choose. Glitch
every track at once, only the drums, or drums and bass together, locked in time.
• The rest of your mix plays on. A pad touches only its own inputs.
• Each glitch can have its own output. Send it to your own reverb, delay or filter.
• Made to be played. Pads can wait for the next beat or bar, catch a moment that just passed, and sound a little different each time.
16 EFFECTS
• Repeat: Roll, Stutter, Erode
• Rearrange: Shuffle, Sequence
• Speed: Tape (Stop and Rewind), Reverse
• Gate: Gater, with a 16-step pattern
• Texture: Freeze, Scan, Smear
• Stems: Scatter, Relay, Stagger, Loom, Crossfire
YOUR TRACKS PLAY EACH OTHER
The Stems effects do not glitch a mix: they make your tracks play each other. Relay lets the tracks take turns, step by step. Stagger plays them as a canon. Loom loops each
track at its own length, for a polyrhythm from your own parts. Scatter breaks them into a cloud of grains. Crossfire lets one track fire pieces of the others: each kick can
throw a chop of your lead or vocal.
PLAY
• 64 pads on 4 pages (A-D). All 64 are live: a latched pad plays on while you work on another page.
• Hold or Latch for each pad. Touch a pad with two fingers to latch it while you play.
• Pads layer: hold many at once, also on the same input. Mono plays one pad at a time.
• Sync: effect times in note values (straight, triplet, dotted) or in milliseconds.
• Grid: in a host, the pad starts on the next beat or bar.
• Lookback: start the effect on the audio from before your touch.
• Mutate: a random change on each hit, as much as you want.
• Speed: 0.25× to 4×. Pitch and time change together, as on a turntable.
ROUTING AND MIXER
• Each pad has one or more inputs, one output, Wet and Gain.
• The mixer has In, Dry and Out levels for each of the 8 buses, with meters.
• Set Dry to 0 to use a bus as a glitch return.
MIDI
• Each pad plays from its own MIDI note and channel.
• Give the same note to many pads, and one note fires a whole scene.
• Let a sequencer play the pads, for written or generative glitch parts.
AUv3 AND STANDALONE
• AUv3 audio effect with MIDI input, for AUM, Loopy Pro, Drambo and other hosts.
• In a host with multi-bus support, route up to 8 tracks in and 8 channels out. Other hosts use In 1 and Out 1.
• Synced times and Grid follow the host tempo. Bypass and Pattern are host parameters. Your setup is saved with the host project.
• The standalone app uses the microphone or an audio
from one pad grid.
