A few weeks ago we told you about GlitchBreaks – the upcoming iOS Universal manipulation tool for “Glitching” breakbeats created by Alex Matheu. We can now tell you that the wait should be over soon as GlitchBreaks has recently been submitted to the AppStore! The price has been set at $4.99.
While you wait check out the latest video of GlitchBreaks v1.0 in action. We’ll let you know once it becomes available!
More information about GlitchBreaks…
Included in the factory sound set are 90 high quality loops hand crafted by Daniel Myer from Haujobb / Architect / Destroid / and more, Juan Espinosa from Cellmod, Isaac Glendening from Cesium 137, Alex Matheu from Negative Format / Distraub / Parallel Project and more, and Loopmasters: a high quality sample boutique.
Glitchbreaks can be used as a performance tool to juggle breaksbeats or destroy sounds at a granular level. You can make interesting effect like sounds by manipulating pitch, loop start, length, and cutting the beats with fluid responsive controls.
You can record your performance and bring it into iTunes through file sharing, or copy it out into another iOS application via Audio Copy and Paste. You pre determine the length of your recording by bars to easily make pieces to bring into a song without the need for further sample editing.
Auto-BPM detection will detect the tempo of a sample you copy into Glitchbreaks (you just need to specify the bars between 1-4). You can turn this feature off in order to manipulate audio that doesn’t have tempo, this is especially useful for manipulating voice samples.
Glitchbreaks contains a 4 channel mixer to adjust the levels of each sample, as you change the levels the sounds are combined into the mix, on the iPad version this is displayed graphically with a rendered waveform that is combined to give you an indication of what the entire sound looks like.
All of this is very easy to operate and even a beginner will be glitching and juggling breaks like a pro in minutes.

Yippee. I’m having fun with this – sounds great on vocals too.
Great!, also did you know that you can disable the Auto BPM detection for samples that are not cut to bars? Especially for voice samples. It is in the Options screen, the Gear.
