Tide
Layered voice notes that paint themselves
About Tide
Tide is an innovative audio tool designed for musicians, producers, and sound designers who want to experiment with layered voice recordings. It transforms simple voice memos into dynamic sound sketches by allowing users to stack recordings directly onto a single tape, creating rich, textured audio compositions. As recordings are made, the waveform visually paints itself, providing real-time feedback and a tactile experience akin to working with vinyl records. Users can scrub through recordings, loop sections, and export their layered soundscapes to Choppa or their DAW, making it a versatile tool for creative experimentation without the need for cloud storage or subscriptions. Its unique approach to visualizing and manipulating sound makes it ideal for both quick ideas and detailed sound design projects. With a launch promotion offering 50% off until the end of July, Tide positions itself as an accessible and powerful addition to any musician’s toolkit.
