What's New in Version 1.8.1 Import Audio from Video - Extract audio directly from videos in your Photos library. Perfect for sampling vocals, beats, or sounds from any video content. Trim to select exactly the portion you want. Universal Sample Rate Support - Import audio files at any sample rate (44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz, and beyond) with automatic high-quality conversion. Your samples always play back at the correct pitch and speed. Internal Resampling Engine - Resample to Pad. Record your master mix directly to a pad—loops, layers, and effects included. Bounce down your performance into a new playable sample. Velocity-Sensitive Sequencer - Three velocity layers control both volume and filter cutoff for more dynamic, expressive sequences. Tap to cycle through velocities—hold to reset a step to off. Smart Auto-Slice - Four sensitivity levels for transient detection let you dial in perfect slices for any material—from punchy drums to complex melodic phrases. Automation Improvements - Visual feedback shows which parameters are automated - Long-press any fader to delete its automation - Long-press a sequencer step to clear its automation data Undo Pad Delete - Accidentally cleared a pad? Instantly restore it with a single tap. Smoother Effects - Reverb and delay parameters now transition seamlessly without clicks or pops. Haptic Feedback - Tactile response throughout the interface for a more responsive, hands-on experience. Swipe Sequencer Input - Drag across steps to paint or erase patterns quickly. The first step you touch sets the mode—empty steps paint, active steps erase.

What's New in Version 1.9.0 Completely Redesigned Effects Engine The entire effects system has been rebuilt from the ground up with custom DSP. Every effect now sounds better, responds faster, and gives you more control. New Insert Effects (per-pad): - 3-Band EQ: RBJ biquad filters with Low/Mid/High faders, presets, automation, click-free preset switching - Transient Shaper: Differential envelope detection with Attack/Sustain control, automatic gain compensation, preset Rebuilt Insert Effects: - Drive: 1. Tape: Analog tape saturation. Adds smooth, warm compression that gets thicker as you push the drive. Subtle at low settings, fat and creamy when cranked. 2. Tube: Dual-stage tube overdrive modeled on a classic 12AX7 valve. Responds dynamically to your input — clean at low levels, rich harmonic breakup when driven hard. Asymmetric clipping gives it that real amp feel. 3. Fuzz: Gated transistor fuzz with octave-up overtones. Quiet signals get swallowed, loud signals explode — that classic velcro-rip fuzz character. Great on drums and one-shots. 4. Fold: A wavefolder inspired by Buchla synthesizers. Produces complex, metallic harmonics that evolve as you increase drive. The most experimental model — turns simple sounds into something alien. 5. Crush: Lo-fi bitcrusher. Drive reduces bit depth (from pristine 16-bit down to gnarly 1-bit), while Tone controls sample-rate reduction for that classic digital grit. Perfect for adding texture, lo-fi character, or total destruction. - Tone Filter: Custom SVF engine (migrated from Expanse) with per-sample parameter smoothing New Send Effects (Global) - Stereo Widener: Add width and dimension with micro-pitch detuning and Haas-effect delays. The Focus fader lets you keep your low end tight while widening everything above. Five presets including Subtle, Wide, Super, Chorus, and ADT. - Custom Delay Engine: Four distinct delay models: Digital (clean), Analog (warm saturation), Tape (wow and flutter), and Ping-Pong (stereo bounce). New Color and Feedback faders for deep sound design. Rebuilt Send Effects - Chorus: Reworked to authentic Juno-106 BBD topology. Presets I, II, and I+II recreate the classic modes. - Reverb: New Decay fader for precise control over reverb tail length (0.5s–10s exponential mapping). Redesigned FX Panel - Clean Insert/Sends tab layout puts all your effects within easy reach. In-App User Manual - Tap the Echo Beach logo to open a searchable, built-in user manual covering every feature in detail. iOS 26 Ready - Fully updated for iOS 26 with native @Observable architecture and custom navigation. Stability & Performance - Rebuilt audio scheduling with atomic buffer swapping for dropout-free playback - Fixed part transition timing for seamless arrangement playback - Comprehensive audio thread safety audit — zero main-thread blocking on the render path - bug fixes across DSP, MIDI, memory management, and UI - iPhone SE layout improvements

Echo Beach 5.5 — The FX Update NEW REVERBS • Room: a lush, modern per-pad reverb with adjustable size, decay, damping, and early reflections. Put a different space on every pad. • Plate: the send reverb, rebuilt from the ground up as a classic studio plate with shimmer, freeze, and gate. NEW EFFECTS • EB2A: a smooth opto-style leveler on the master chain, modeled on a legendary studio compressor. • Duck: per-pad sidechain ducking for that pumping, head-nodding groove. • Grain: granular freeze for textures, drones, and glitched-out tails. UPGRADED • EQ is now 5 bands per pad. • The Transient shaper is now a full Enveloper-style envelope shaper — sculpt attack and release independently, with threshold gating. UNDER THE HOOD • Heavy DSP rewritten in optimized C++ Run all 8 pads with reverbs and effects everywhere - smooth as butter. • MIDI Learn and P-Lock playback fixes for master FX. All effects work everywhere: standalone, AUv3, iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

No subscriptions, no 'pro-unlock', one purchase for the complete instrument with 26 hand built effects. The biggest sound upgrade yet. • Room — lush per-pad reverb. A different space on every pad. • Plate — the send reverb, rebuilt as a classic studio plate with shimmer, freeze, and gate. • EB2A — smooth opto-style leveling on the master bus. • Duck — per-pad sidechain pumping. • Grain — granular freeze for textures and glitched-out tails. • 5-band EQ and a new Enveloper — shape attack and release independently. • DSP rewritten in optimized C++ — stack effects on all 8 pads, butter smooth. Works everywhere: standalone, AUv3, iPhone, iPad, Mac.
