Reel Audio Release Reel: 4-Track Recorder

Reel Audio have released Reel, available at the intro price of $9.99. The first 500 buyers receive lifetime Founder status with FREE access to all future premium add-ons, plus early beta access to new updates. If you miss out on the free Lifetime Founder Unlock, it’s available as an in-app purchase for $9.99.

Reel is a tape-style multitrack field recorder for iPhone, built for musicians, DJs, songwriters, podcasters and field recordists who want the tactile feel of hardware in their pocket.

Every control is designed for muscle memory. A large jog wheel lets you scrub through takes at variable speed. Transport controls mirror a traditional tape machine: record, play, stop, fast forward, rewind. Just like tape.

Capture up to four tracks at 32-bit float / up to 96 kHz for archive-quality recordings with no clipping worries. Layer overdubs, punch in and out, loop any section. Connect any class-compliant USB-C audio interface with auto-routing on first connect. A natural fit for hardware jams, DJ sets, digitising a vinyl collection or tracking live instruments on the go.

Recordings save locally for privacy, with optional iCloud Drive sync. Export as WAV or AIFF, live in the Files app.

One-time purchase. No subscription. No ads. No account required. The first 500 buyers become Founders with lifetime access to every future premium add-on and early beta access to updates. Built by 24bit Studio.
