Rockr looks cool. Is it your project? If so, you should do a Show HN. A blog post with a bunch of bullet points isn't interesting for a general audience.

Also, I think it would be cool if you record the mic in the app, so that you can directly loop things you play or sing or even random noises you hear.

Thank you! I didn't even knew that Show HN existed. It's exactly the right thing.

I'm currently comparing the latencies for recording (recording through a web browser vs recording through an android app) and seeing how much I can reduce the latencies. Rockr wants to be useful, and useful in audio engineering generally means "low-latency" (especially in a loopstation where audiotracks must align perfectly). So it's not sure at that point for me to either stay in the web browser or switch to a potential Rockr-app.

JQuery offers optimizations, but they are limited to the capabilities of web browsers of course.

Thanks for your input!
