Omar Quddusi has released Ohms Sample, available for $29.99.
If you’re a sound designer, electronic music producer, or ambient enthusiast looking to slice, warp, and weave raw audio into rich, evolving sonic textures, Ohms Sample by Omar Quddusi is an exciting addition to the mobile sound creation ecosystem.
Designed for iOS, Ohms Sample combines granular synthesis with a unique “loom” workflow, allowing you to turn static audio clips into dynamic, multi-layered atmospheric pads, rhythmic textures, and experimental soundscapes.
Traditional samplers play audio back linearly or across pitch ranges, but Ohms Sample deconstructs your audio into micro-fragments—grains—and reweaves them into entirely new timbres. Whether you are feeding it field recordings, synth stabs, or vocal clips, the app gives you hands-on control over granular parameters, movement, and sequencing.
Despite its powerful audio manipulation engine, the app maintains an incredibly lightweight footprint (around 5.7 MB), ensuring snappy performance and seamless integration into modern mobile production workflows.
Who’s it for?

- Live Electronic Performers: Manipulate live sound inputs or stored audio samples on stage with expressive touch controls.
Features include:
- Advanced Granular Synthesis Engine: Micro-sample any audio clip and adjust grain size, density, pitch, scatter, and playback direction in real time for lush, evolving textures.
- Innovative “Loom” Audio Weaving: Layer and interlace multiple sound grains into complex, evolving soundscapes that shift dynamically over time.
- Tactile Play & Performance Interface: Designed with mobile touchscreens in mind, offering responsive controls for live sound manipulation and expressive playback.
- Integrated Step & Sequencing Controls: Rhythmically trigger, pulse, or modulate grain parameters using intuitive step sequencing to create organic, moving patterns.
- Compact & Ultra-Lightweight (5.7 MB): Zero bloatware—delivering maximum digital signal processing (DSP) power while preserving your device’s memory and storage.
- Universal iOS / iPadOS Compatibility: Designed to run smoothly across iPhone and iPad, making mobile music production effortless wherever inspiration strikes.
- Standalone & AUv3 Plugin Support: Play standalone on the go or load it directly into your favorite iOS Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) like GarageBand, AUM, or Cubasis for full project integration.
