Tide turns voice memos into layered sound sketches. Takes stack onto one tape — hum a bassline, beatbox over it, sing the hook. The waveform paints itself as you record. Scrub like vinyl, loop the good part, send it to Choppa or your DAW. No subs, no cloud. Launch month — 50% off until the end of July!

Hey PH 👋 Tide started from a small irritation: every voice memo app treats an idea like it's finished — one take, one file, a list of gray rows. But ideas don't arrive finished. They arrive in layers. You hum the bass, then you hear the harmony, then there's a beat you have to tap out RIGHT NOW before it's gone. So Tide is one tape you keep layering onto. Press record, sing. Press record again, hum over it. Every pass adds to the last — destructively, on purpose. No undo. No track list. Commitment is the feature: it keeps you moving forward instead of mixing. While you record, the waveform paints itself — watercolor strokes, a grass meadow that sways in the wind, little ships that fly around your sound. The visual isn't decoration; it's how you find the moment again. Scrub it like vinyl. Drop loop points. Pin a take to a color. There's an XY pad that places your voice in space WHILE you record — distance and pan baked into the tape, like leaning away from the mic. When the sketch is real, ship it: WAV export, or straight into Choppa (our sampler) to chop it into something else. $12.99 once. No subscription, no account, no cloud — your audio never leaves the device. It's for the shower-singers, the steering-wheel drummers, the people with 400 voice memos named "New Recording 47." I'd love to know what you make with it — and what feels missing.

The “400 voice memos named New Recording 47” line is too real. Layering ideas onto one tape feels much closer to how music ideas actually happen. Curious if you plan to add a way to duplicate a tape before committing to a new layer?
