Hi everyone :) my name is Marcelo Mendez, and I appreciate you taking the time to look at my first ever macOS app!
RM2000 Tape Recorder primarily exists because I hate losing ideas. It was too cumbersome to get a sound snippet from my computer and get an audio file within seconds that won't get lost in my Downloads folder.
I’m also a huge datahoarder — I love tools like PureRef and Are.na that help me make sense of everything I collect. I always appreciated how simple it was to take an inspiring image and paste it into Are.na and have it on an organized board - why can't we have the same with music and audio files?
RM2000 Tape Recorder makes audio sampling effortless - just record the sound, give it a title and maybe some tags, and its saved - instantly available to be used on any DAW or production software.
It does all of this while also looking absolutely stunning. Skeuomorphism isn't dead!
RM2000 Tape Recorder sounds like a fantastic tool for quickly capturing and organizing audio ideas. How does the tagging system work in terms of searching and organizing your audio files?

@evgenii_zaitsev1 It all goes down to the filenaming of each sample. Every sample is saved in the format of title--tag1_tag2.mp3 , I did it this way so that I could not only sort it with the macOS Finder, but so that the samples are also sortable in programs such as Logic Pro X or Ableton with their internal File Browser. They all support "fuzzy search", so if i have a sample with the filename "anno--drumloop_edm_sounddesign_bass.mp3", all i need to do is put "Edm bass" in the Ableton search box and it pops up :) It's really portable to do it this way
