Meow | Audio Editor vs WaveCloud Usage & Stats

Meow is a fast and efficient audio and sample editor for quickly and easily getting general everyday audio and sample editing duties done. It does not have a huge amount of features, but instead focuses on a fast, effective workflow and user interface. IMPORTANT: Meow is free to try so you can see if the app suits your needs. However, to enable saving or sharing edited audio, a one-time In-App Purchase (IAP) is required. KEY FEATURES: - Fast, smart and efficient navigation and selection with optional snapping to zero crossings - Undo and Redo (number of steps depends on file size) - Automatic Crossfades (adjustable length) for most editing operations - Interactive adjustable fade-in / fade-out points with various curve shapes - Interactive loop cross-fade for creating seamless loops - Nudging and manual entry of selection start / end or playhead for fine control - Touch and mouse input fully supported - Extensive hardware keyboard support with keyboard shortcuts including in-app reference - Smart AutoZoom to reduce the need for manual panning / zooming - Clipboard with automatic resampling and rechanneling - Tempo and time signature support for editing and snapping to bars or beats, with automatic calculation from selection - Resampling between any two supported sample rates (see below) - In-App Recording from the device microphone with optional auto-normalize. Recording from external audio interfaces and in stereo is currently not guaranteed to work with all interfaces. Compatibility will be vastly improved in a future update. - Sample-accurate editing and playback exactly according to selection - Seamless and sample-accurate looping playback of selection SAMPLE PROCESSING: - Editing: Trim, Cut, Copy, Paste (Insert / Mix / Replace) - Processing: Gain, Normalize, Silence, Reverse, Invert - Filters (with live preview): Lowpass, Highpass, Bandpass, Notch - EQ (with live preview): Peaking, Low Shelf, High Shelf, 10-Band Graphic EQ - Channels: Make Mono / Make Stereo / Swap - 3-Band Noise Reduction - Supported sample rates: 96000, 48000, 44100, 22050, 11025, and 8000 Hz - All processing done in 32-bit floating point IMPORT: - Supported formats: WAV, MP3, AIFF, MP4, AAC, ALAC (Apple Lossless). Note that very long audio files (> 20 minutes) are not supported. - Import via Files, Drag & Drop, or "Open In" - Dropped files can be merged into existing audio (Insert / Mix / Replace) EXPORT: - Export to Files or Share directly from the app - Supported formats: WAV (16-bit / 24-bit / 32-bit float), MP3 (adjustable bitrate) LIMITATIONS: - Editing very long audio files (> 20 minutes) may cause instability and limited Undo functionality, as all processing happens in memory (RAM). - Editing very large files can result in slowdowns.

WaveCloud

WaveCloud is an innovative granular synthesizer that offers powerful tools for manipulating and playing sounds. Granular synthesis divides an audio sample into tiny fragments, called grains, each typically a few milliseconds in length. These grains are then manipulated independently in terms of pitch, duration, position in time, and amplitude. Unlike traditional synthesis, the capability to manipulate tiny grains of audio offers enormous precision of sound control, transformation, and compositional possibilities. WaveCloud offers a wide range of tools for experimentation – oscillator, LFOs, filters, envelopes, routing matrix, innovative WaveGlide and Orbit modules for grain movement, effects, MPE support, extensive waveform editing, customizable themes, MIDI CC control, aftertouch, audio pool manager, and 200+ presets to get you started. Granular synthesis is extremely versatile and can produce a vast range of sounds and textures, from subtle, atmospheric sounds to complex, dynamic ones. WaveCloud offers dozens of parameters, enabling you to sculpt the sound grains in any way you wish – textural pads and atmospheres, time-stretched effects, glitchy and stutter effects, vocal and instrumental manipulations, granular synthesis percussive sounds, experimental effects, as well as microtonal and harmonic soundscapes. WaveCloud features a drag and drop system for importing and exporting of audio files and presets. It has its own built-in Preset and Audio Managers to help keep everything in order. WaveCloud even features a fully-fledged zoomable audio editor along with a suite of tools to crop, fade, cut, copy, paste, and normalise your samples. We include a morphing 3-state Oscillator to support the granular engine. The granular engine allows up to 50 grains per second per note, with grain lengths up to a second in length. Grains can be sculpted with our morphing envelope generator, manipulated with our LFOs, FEGs and VCFs, and passed through lots of randomisation to keep things continually evolving. WaveCloud also features two unique features for adding movement to audio grains. Orbit mode allows you to play sweeping patterns tied to the physical host tempo of your DAW, and WaveGlide is a sequencer with glides and fades from one location to another. To top it all off, we include 7 built-in effects, delay, reverb, chorus, overdrive, phaser, resonator, and 8-band EQ. The resonator controls per-note feedback and dispersion for amazing MPE effects. WaveCloud is not only a deep and powerful granular synth but also a fun way to create many incredible sounds.
