"Create your own beats on the go"

Reviewed by: Emmanuel Lund / Nov 14, 2011

Uloops Studio Lite is a digital audio workstation for making your own beats

First, we liked that you can try the app without signing up, although if you want to have full access, share your your songs and many other options, you will need to create an account.

Uloops Studio Lite is basically an digital audio workstation like Reason, FL Studio or other well-known software for computers. In this case, this is an app for Android mobile devices. Of course, it isn't as complete as the computer software. However, it amazed us the amount of options, instruments, features, patterns and many other resources available to compose really good vibes.

Uloops Studio is basically based on three mainstays. First, "compose": choose the instruments, change the pitch, the volumen, adjust the equalizer, create the beat, instruments mixing, scratching, modulation, importing loops... The amount of features is just insane. Second, "Publish": once your beat is done, share it on your Uloops profile and let your contacts enjoy it. Finally, "Community": check "Today's song", "Top song", edit your artist profile, add friends, ask doubts on Forums... among many other options. Uloops has been developed to create a whole community of Uloopers constantly creating and sharing beats.

Uloops Labs, the developers of this app and its pro version, have done a great job with it. High recommendable apps fro composers.

Developer's original description available here
Build high quality tracks as a sequence of loops, mixing synths, drums, audio recordings, analog modulators and arpeggiators. Apply Fx to channels and export to mp3 or ringtones. Also publish, play and collaborate in our community.

Cloud-based technology: performs the audio rendering process in a remote service.

    This is an excellent app! I wish one could plug a cable to the cellphone fron the amp and record a clean sound from it, but wither way, it's a good app! :)

    the app could be slightly more polished but its definitely been useful. as far as the people though, it seems to be a small community of mostly the same ppl producing and liking each others tracks. not a lot of polished work on there. lot of terrible rap
