IK Multimedia is bringing their popular audio recording and editing app, the iRig Recorder, into the Android platform.

This new app is designed to turn your Android smartphones and tablets into a powerful mobile recorder and sound editor.

Many of the world's top music production software designers now have their products available on the iOS platform. When it comes to music production apps, they have the obvious advantage. Thankfully, developers and manufacturers are now beginning to see the growing number of Android users and are now eyeing the platform as a good place to market their product. The iRig Recorder is a good example of this, aiming to help equalize the gap of music app quality between iOS and Android.

With the iRig Recorder, you can easily capture a new song that popped up in your head, record band rehearsals or even document live performances. And it comes with a nifty editing tool so you can easily manage and organize your recordings directly on your device. iRig Recorder automatically stores your recordings by date and automatically adds geolocation information so you can easily find them.

More than just a basic recording app, it has audio production and polishing tools for creating quality audio. You get a waveform editor for cropping and and trimming tracks, you can normalize volume levels, remove background noise and you can also adjust dynamics. It assists you from recording all the way to sharing your finished track.

Aside from its obvious musical applications, iRig Recorder can also be a powerful tool for capturing interviews, lectures, podcasts and other audio snippets.
