Pretake

Capture Audio Before Recording

Free · In-App Purchases · Designed for iPad

Never miss the moment again. Your best ideas, sounds, and spontaneous performances often happen before you hit record. Pretake captures them anyway. Designed for musicians and anyone who works with audio, Pretake continuously listens in the background and lets you save audio from moments that have already passed. Whether it's a sudden musical idea, the perfect line delivery, or unexpected audio worth keeping - you'll have it. KEY FEATURES Capture Audio After It Happens Pretake continuously maintains a rolling audio buffer. When something worth saving occurs, simply tap "Capture" to retrieve the audio from the past seconds or minutes. Adjustable Buffer Length Choose the window that suits your workflow: • 30 seconds • 2 minutes • 5 minutes • 10 minutes • 15 minutes Trim & Edit Refine your capture with easy, precise trimming tools.
