Hokusai Audio Editor

Classic wave editing for iPhone, iPad and Apple Silicon Mac

With Hokusai it’s easy to record or import audio, and make it sound awesome. Whether you just want to trim the ends, or apply a suite of filters and special effects, reach for Hokusai on your iPhone, iPad — or now, for the first time, Apple Silicon Mac.

Projects can now be saved and synced in iCloud Drive. Make recordings on the go with your iPhone, then edit on the larger screen of iPad or Mac. Or pull out whichever device you have with you while you’re travelling, and pick up a project right where you left off.

Edit up to 32 tracks side-by-side, mix them together, export to Wave, MP3 or M4A/AAC format, and save the finished audio to your device, a cloud service, or (iOS) open in another app.

Simple, uncluttered interface.

Focus on your tracks.

On the record.

Up to 8 channels at a time.

Listen to your existing tracks or live audio through headphones while you record.

Select audience.

Drag to select, and hear the audio under your finger or pointer, with live scrubbing. Sadly, this can’t be shown in a screenshot :)

Cut, copy & paste, delete, silence or trim selections. Apply effects, or pick up audio to move it around.

Fast, smooth response.

Standard gestures to zoom and scroll.

View the whole length of your track or dive in to see every detail.

Panorama. And volumearama.

Non-destructive volume and panning for each track.

Solo or mute tracks when you need focus.

Take a peak.

Per-track and final mix level meters — with peaks, precise values and clipping warnings.

Percentage or decibels, you choose.

Sliding into your projects.

Enhanced sliders can vary over time. Apply curves for creative effects. Zoom in for fine control.

Or just a regular slider, when that’s all you need.

Pitch perfect.

Use mini keyboards to easily set frequencies to a standard pitch.

Or type in a number if you need ultimate precision.

On the mark.

Add markers to your timeline. Give them notes, colours, and quickly select from one marker to the next, or jump back later.

Markers can also be imported from/exported to Wave and MP3 files.

Edit with confidence.

Full support for undo and redo – even after closing your project, or the app.

And so much more…
