Everyday Looper

Open iTunes to buy and download apps.
Description
A video is worth a thousand words. Check out this new demo / tutorial of Everyday Looper : http://tinyurl.com/ELTuto2
Everyday Looper allows you to record 4 musical phrases - 6 on an iPad - and loop them right away. You can then mix and merge them on the fly.
Thanks to the metronome (click track) and the auto start/stop of recording (quantized recording), reachable in the tools and options menu, it's suited for two-handed instruments too.
- As seen on CNN -

"A superb combination of GarageBand and Electroplankton" MacLife.de (4/5)
"This app really enables musicians to jot down an idea or create a masterpiece right from their devices" AppVee.com (5/5)

Customer Reviews
As brilliant as an app can be
Love everything about it. Every new feature release has been nothing short of creativity. They really listen to users' request and implement it in the most interesting way.
For example, "Split stereo" that's pretty ingenious!
I know one need to get used to all the hand gestures but once you get the hang of it, I'm sure ANYONE will have fun with it :)
Ps. For those who say you can't send the files through email, not sure if it's possible since wav files are pretty large in size. Maybe the Raphael can put out a (de)feature to compress the files to fit the tracks into a 10-20mb range. But I think it might just get a bit hairy as one mail service would have a different limit in how much size can be attached in a mail.. I hope all that nonsense made sense. Lol
Best app ever
Simply the coolest app I have ever used
Amazing app.
$6 is a pretty low price for a looper. This app can be used professionally if need be. Novice or expert, this app is fun.
