Sampledex press kit

Make the samples other producers build on.

Sampledex is a DAW made by sample makers, for sample makers, creating original loops, melodies, phrases, textures and stems. Robert Anthony of Robert Anthony Studios founded Sampledex to solve the lack of a DAW specifically for composing samples.

Available for macOS, Windows (testing) and iPad. The screenshots below show the native macOS workspace; features and project compatibility differ by platform.
