Apple Introduces Layered Voice Memos Feature

Apple has introduced a new feature in the Voice Memos app for iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max users with the release of iOS 18.2, allowing for dual-layer recordings. This feature enables users to record vocal tracks over existing instrumental tracks without the need for headphones, using the device's built-in microphone and speaker. The A18 Pro chip provides advanced processing and machine learning capabilities to isolate vocals and create separate tracks for mixing. Notably, artists like Michael Bublé and Carly Pearce showcased this feature in a holiday track titled 'Maybe This Christmas.' Layered recordings can be easily exported to Logic Pro for further editing and are synced across Apple devices. This upgrade aims to enhance the utility of Voice Memos for musicians and creators alike.
