Features & Capabilities

Retro Future

Inspired by the oil can delays of the 60s and our previous granular explorations, Curtis™ and Spunk™, Soup brings you a virtual magnetic fluid that you can record onto, slosh around, and play back from. You can use it as a unique delay effect or more like a granular synthesizer, concocting your own wholly novel sounds.

Quantum Sound

Soup breaks up recordings into individual sound quanta with which you can interact as if they made up an audio fluid. They can be played linearly or randomly, forward, backward, or even sideways. They can, moreover, be stirred together, giving a whole new meaning to mixing sound.

Sounds Touching

Not only is this an extremely visual audio experience, it’s terrifically tactile as well. With support for multi-touch, Soup lets you get in there and mangle the fluid in a way that’s simply not possible with knobs and faders.

Audio Palette

Soup will let you paint with sound. You can record external sounds through the microphone or import WAV files, slathering sound over the virtual fluid. Then your fingers can become play heads, reading back the sounds from any position, or multiple positions at once.

User Reviews

Just purchased this, knowing it is stand alone only, with no connectivity to other apps, because I’m granular addicted, lol. I think it is a really clever idea. But I was disappointed to find that it won’t send sound to my Bluetooth devices. Also am having regular crashes, when loading files, and pressing play. Sometimes it recovers, and starts playing, sometimes not. Would be nice if it had more than one playback head. Another feature I would like to see in an update, is the ability to apply modulation to some/all of the controls. Also midi learn, so midi from other apps, or external hardware, could control the app’s functions. As far as cpu usage goes, iPad hardware has come a long way, since this app was released. Is there no way to optimize the software performance, so it is less stress on system resources, and could connect to other music apps? I suspect that this app is now abandonedware, as there have been no updates for a few years. It’s a shame, as the idea has a lot of potential.

Rad sounds. Unfortunately, the app isn’t optimized to fit 11-in iPad. I can see a couple buttons cut off at the bottom of the screen. Perhaps there’s more missing that I can’t see. Please, please, please update to fix—I’d use this app all the time in that case.
