Developer Erik Sigth has introduced Nils, a real-time bitcrusher, sampler and looper for iOS.
Here’s what he has to say about Nils:
Nils is a real time sound effect machine with a minimalistic looper. It comes with bitcrush, delay and gain for distortion. As input you can use the internal microphone, your earpods or accessories like iRig. Can also be used as a sampler, by holding the delay buffer and changing its phase. Lo-fi looping for both beginners and professionals.
Features:
- Real time.
- Bitchrush.
- Sample rate (1 Hz – 44100 Hz).
- Delay.
- Hold delay buffer.
- Play delay buffer.
- Gain (goes up to 11).
- Limiter.
- Tape looper.
- Export (email, soundcloud, MAPI audio copy).
Nils is $1.99 in the App Store.

Love it! Checked it out on my train ride home yesterday, and it resulted in a trippy trip home! Also, love the UI and the design.

No video? Have to see it in action before I buy it. Too much crap on my ipad to risk another one…

Pushing the home button keeps it open…

Do you have anything intelligent to say about why you hate all apps?
Seems like a very strange comment, as important as software is nowadays!

I think they mean double click the home button and delete the app from there. It will stop it running

Is the sound bandlimited or does it just output aliasing noise like too many apps?
