Elijah Lucian has updated Choppa, available for $4.99. The update is FREE to existing users.
What’s new in version 1.6.1:
The 1.6 engine release – everything since 1.5.1 in one update,
- INPUT FX – host AUv3 effects on your live input. Chain up to 4 effects (any installed AUv3 plus Apple’s built-ins) that run before record and monitor: what you capture is what you hear. Lives in the transmissions drawer.
- Near-instant monitoring – The whole input path moved into a single low-latency render callback — monitoring your mic now feels immediate instead of noticeably behind your voice.
- Pre-record on the mic – Set PRE-RECORD (1- 30s) and REC reaches back to before vou pressed it – and starts instantly, no waiting for the input threshold. The tape always keeps 5 seconds free for live audio, and the setting shows its true reach-back (includina under Low Power Mode).
- The library grew up – Three tabs: CHOPS yours), WAVELOOP (sounds shared by other WaveLoop apps), and FOLDERS (browse your own folders and import straight from them). Preview any entry in place with a play button and moving cursor, swipe left to delete, and the drawer opens fast
- Recording keeps your work safe – Takes that fill the tape now finalize and save instead of wiping. Normalize no longer distorts hot takes. Files opened from other apps respect your NORMALIZE / SAFE import settings Your mic and capsule selection survives phone calls. route chanaes. and RESET AUDIO; picking a capsule mid-set no longer interrupts playing loops; pulling your headphones mid-take saves the take and mutes the monitor instead of squealing. The input LEVEL slider now works on mics.
- Also – bipolar effect controls (like delay feedback) mark their neutral point and double-tap to reset, banks are labelled A-D in the share picker, a new BACKGROUND MIC setting (off by default – backgrounding releases the mic), and a cleaner fixed-height chop editor.
