Vibe Tapes
Utilities
$0.99 · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Plug in a synth, press record, and layer four tracks on one tape. Just a recorder you work by hand.
Vibe Tapes is a four-track tape recorder for iPhone and iPad. It is one screen with no menus, built like a piece of hardware: every control does one thing and shows its own state.
USE IT TO
• Jam with a synth or drum machine. Plug it into the USB-C port and record it directly. When you stop, the tape plays back through the speaker, so there is nothing to unplug.
• Catch an idea before it goes. Open the app, press record, and sing or play into the microphone.
• Build a song in layers. Record a part, pick the next track, and play over what you already have.
• Practise a hard section. Mark it with cues, switch the loop on, and slow the tape down.
HOW IT WORKS
• Four tracks on a six-minute tape, each with level, pan, mute and solo.
• A reel you turn by hand to move through the tape, with a tick you can feel at every second.
• Tape speed from quarter to four times. Pitch follows speed, as it does on real tape.
• A click with tempo from 40 to 240 bpm.
• Cues and a loop that repeats the section you are in.
• Export mixes the four tracks into one audio file you can share or save.
IN THE BACKGROUND
Recording carries on when you leave the app or lock the screen. A Live Activity shows the take running on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island.
THREE FINISHES
Light, dark or green. On iPad the mixer sits beside the reel, with a full-length fader for each track.
PRIVATE
No account, no ads, no tracking. The app never connects to the internet. Your tapes stay on your device, and you can reach them in the Files app.
