// How it works

Load a sample.
Feel the vinyl.

Load any audio file using the file browser or by opening it from another app. The full waveform view with overview strip lets you navigate the track instantly. From there you control everything — playback, scratching, cues, loops, and cuts — through touch.

Scratching works by dragging on the waveform canvas. The vinyl physics engine models real platter inertia: the sound accelerates and decelerates the way a record actually does, including spin-down when you let go.

Everything you need to scratch

01

Vinyl Physics

Real platter inertia. The sound accelerates and decelerates the way a record actually does — spin-down, coast, and snap-back.

02

Scratch & Cut

Drag the waveform to scratch. Hold CUT to kill the signal like a crossfader. REV flips direction. Crossfader strip for blend control.
