Work on Caustic 2.0 is still progressing nicely in between holiday festivities and nasty illnesses but it's not ready yet.
I hinted I was working on another app in between coding sessions for Caustic, and that app is out now so I just want to give it a shout here in case you're interested. Please help spread the word or your blogs, twitter, facebook, Google+, whatever the kids are into this week.
The app is called LoopStack and it's a loop recorder for Android very similar to Everyday Looper on iOS, with a hint of Caustic's new UI and effects. My plan is to bring some of this tech back into Caustic to allow sample recoding and maybe even a looper "machine".
Here's the market link:
And here's a short video that shows what it does:
Happy new year!
Great stuff, love the program, bought it yesterday, been looking for something like this for ages. It would be great if you could record/export a longer track by manually punching tracks in and out. Also I would love it if Caustic and Loopstack were combined, so you could bring caustic machine patterns in and out. Just a little wish list, but I still love your work.
ReplyDeleteSo simple to use works perfectly on S2. Really useful and fun.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait until Caustic 2.0. Keep on rockin' the great software!!!!
ReplyDeleteREALLY NICE WORK ! So easy to use, and the reverb adds a whole new dimension to sounds. It is a blast. Thanks for such awesome software!
ReplyDeleteToo bad this app was of higher priority to you than the new version of Caustic, I bought it hoping for an update coming soon and I`m really not that into loop recording programs like ACID. Anyway good job, keep on rockin ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm a little disappointed. i bought caustic a little over a month ago because you said an update was coming in a weeks time. i honestly could understand being a week/week and 1/2 late on a promise like that given it was so close to xmas/newyears but its now 2 weeks after those holidays and still no sign of 2.0.
ReplyDeletenext time you wanna announce something early i would make sure you had all your ducks in a row before making it public.
Guys, I said "in a few weeks", not next week. I'm sorry if you feel cheated.
ReplyDeleteThe reality is this a PART TIME project. Until apps start paying the bills, that's what it will remain: Something I do for fun that I hope other get enjoyment out of. Being stressed about release dates is not fun so I guess that's the last time I give any previews of what's coming up. Live and learn.
If you want out, mail me your order number and I'll refund you.
Really don't understand posters writing such a nonsense regarding release of C2 and their disappointment, especially if they purchased C1 just a month ago.
ReplyDeleteI've got the first version for 3 months now and still being amazed what this app can do, lt might look simple but it isn't. So my advice is to learn and use the whole potential C1 has to offer. It'll def help to use C2 in the nearly future.
Re this looper, very user friendly and easy to work with. I had a great fun sampling my voice over and over like Ula Urbaniak does.
C2 is announced to have a unified pattern view (as well as everything else new) that's going to be so much better than anything else on Android market and so much like what many of us are used to in FL Studio etc. - Rej please do understand our whining :) Maybe Loopstack is the next step after mastering Caustic
ReplyDeleteOh wow. I just bought caustic a couple days ago because I thought it was amazing. And now I found out that there is a huge update in the works! I love this app and am hoping it gets even better with the update. This loopstack is also really cool!
ReplyDeleteLove loop stack great for anyone who plays the guitar like me and wants to jam stuff out to a particular beat, works great with caustic to. Don't listen to the whining about version 2 I'd rather wait and have something that works, anyhow I've had caustic for ages now and still love it, cheers mate, keep up the excellent work.
ReplyDeleteNice, very clever way of working within the constraints of latency. Minor point though - why make the waveforms disappear when they're muted (looks like that's what's happening in the demo). Why not grey them out or something?
ReplyDeleteAgree with others - give the man a break! These projects are clearly a labor of love and I'm pretty sure what you're paying him doesn't compete with minimum wage.
Great job! Keep these audio apps coming. I eagerly await your next release. Take your time on caustic 2.0. I can wait!
ReplyDeleteplease offer paypal purchasing option, credit cards are very uncommon for non-US
ReplyDeleteEvidently a couple of posters are still running Human 1.0
ReplyDeleteAwesome app - user-friendly, very polished and the price is just right.
ReplyDeleteSome more features I would like to see: track erase, import wave, re-generate clicktrack and more time signatures (like 7/8, 5/4).
This Caustic app is fantastic. The sooner it pays all your bills the better, you're doing a service to humanity for the love of pete!
ReplyDeleteA looper machine inside Caustic would be my number one request. I will wait patiently, your output on this project is truly heroic.
Sweet. I have no talent, but this is really fun nonetheless. I hope you start a gallery soon so users can share their Caustic creations. I'd love to hear what people are doing. This app could support a more community driver website.
ReplyDeleteCaustic 1 didn't pull me in yet.Was occupied with living & learning in other directions.
ReplyDeleteIt was a very big surprise to find out that 2.0 was out,which sucked me in.Enough options for me to learn & develop the art/passion of composing music.
Clearly you developed this with a lot of love & enthusiasm.Praise to thee & passionate developers like you!!!
I'm really curious about the future of caustic & other apps coming from you!All the best!
Well ecstatic to find something like loopstack on android. I am a beatboxer/singer/musician, works so well being able to play acguitar and beat over it. As far as i'm concernerned all the people bleating on here about late releases should zip it.. this is a studio in your pocket for £1. what does it take to make people happy nowadays. :D
