Choppa

Live Audio Sampler

$4.99 · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Chop layers are here. Each pad count is its own independent layer — pitch, gain, reverse, loop mode all preserved. Live parameter control. Three-finger tap loop cycling. WaveLoop Choppa is a lightning-fast sampler and slicing instrument built for songwriters, live loopers, and sonic sketchers. Stop clicking notes into a piano roll and start performing your ideas. Whether you are capturing a quick vocal chop through your microphone or slicing up a synth loop inside your favorite mobile DAW, Choppa turns static audio into a playable, dynamic instrument instantly. ESCAPE THE GRID Designed for speed and musicality, Choppa lets you bounce loops into slices, trigger sections as one-shots, and remix ideas into fresh patterns without slowing down your creative flow. STANDALONE & AUV3 PLUGIN Use Choppa as a standalone instrument to jam and sketch ideas on the go using your device's microphone. When it's time to produce a full track, load Choppa as an AUv3 plugin inside GarageBand, Logic Pro for iPad, AUM, or any compatible host to integrate it directly into your mix. KEY FEATURES • Instant Chopping: Record audio and immediately map it across playable trigger pads. • Perform Your Loops: Trigger sections organically as one-shots to create new rhythms and call-and-response patterns. • Destructive Fun: Reverse, choke, and manipulate slices to discover happy accidents. • AUv3 Support: Full Audio Unit v3 support for seamless integration into iOS DAWs. • Export Anywhere: Part of the WaveLoop ecosystem—export your ideas and build them out in your desktop DAW. Catch the vibe, mangle your loops, and build your next track with WaveLoop Choppa.

Chop Layers — each pad count is its own layer now. Switch between 4, 8, 16 and everything stays where you left it. Pitch, gain, reverse, loop mode, region bounds — all preserved per layer. Live parameter control — change pitch, volume, reverse, or loop mode while voices are playing. Scrub region bounds mid-playback. Everything updates in real time. Three-finger tap cycles loop mode in the chop view. Off, loop, ping-pong. Recording pre-roll — captures audio from just before the trigger so you never lose the attack transient. Import controls — new settings panel with Safe Import (attenuates hot signals), Normalize (scales gain to unity), and Mash (soft-clip for lo-fi grit). Monitor Input lets you hear your mic through Choppa. Start marker fix — moving chop boundaries no longer glitches the playhead mid-playback.
