What Soundtrap is for

Soundtrap is a studio for making music and recording podcasts, and it runs both in a web browser and as a mobile app. The developer describes it as aimed at creators who want to start a recording on one device and finish it on another.

It suits people writing songs, singers laying down vocal ideas, and anyone producing a podcast with more than one voice. The mobile app is for capturing ideas away from a computer, and the browser version is for fuller mixing sessions.

Recording vocals and podcasts

You can record vocals and podcast audio in the studio, and the developer lists real-time monitoring, which lets you hear effects on your voice while you record. A singer can hear the reverb or other processing as they perform, rather than adding it afterward.

Podcast recordings can be made together with other people in the same session. Recordings from several contributors sit in one project.

Building tracks from loops and instruments

The studio includes thousands of loops, which the developer says are professionally recorded and cover a range of genres. These can be dropped into a song to build a beat or backing without recording every part yourself.

For playing your own parts, there are built-in sampled instruments, including piano, organ, synths and drums. You can play these alongside recorded vocals in the same project.

Mixing, effects and Vocal Tuner

The listing mentions a large library of effects for shaping the sound of a track or a voice during mixing. Effects are the same ones you can monitor live while recording, so the mix you hear while tracking is the one you can refine later.

Vocal Tuner is a separate tool for editing recorded vocals. It requires a subscription, so it is only available to users who pay for one.

Working with others and sharing finished songs

A chat built into the studio lets invited collaborators work on the same recordings from different places, with conversation kept inside the project. Everyone in a session can see the same tracks as they change.

When a recording is finished, you can download it or share it by email, WhatsApp, Messenger, Facebook or SoundCloud. All projects are stored in the cloud, so the same work is available from a phone, a tablet or a computer.
