SUS4 Recorder

Capture the idea before it disappears.

SUS4 Recorder captures ideas fast: open the app, tap record, play. When you stop, it analyses the take on your device and labels it with an estimated key, tempo and chord, so you can find the idea again later.

On Apple Watch, the Recorder app records straight from the Watch microphone, keeps going when you lower your wrist, and plays takes back on the Watch itself, so you can catch an idea without reaching for your phone.

On iPhone, iPad and Mac, search your library by name, key or chord, audition a take through reverb and EQ, and export it to share through the usual share sheet. SUS4 Recorder is not a DAW. It is a capture tool, designed to stay out of the way so the idea is what matters, not the tool.
