Facebook Collab Experimental Music-Making App Has Been Launched On Apple's App Store

Facebook Collab experimental music-making app has been launched on Apple's App Store. Facebook's NPE team said that they had worked closely with the beta test community to make updates to the creation, sharing, and discovery of new collabs. Audio syncing is one of the improvements that will help users adjust their recordings to be aligned with others in the collab. Collab automates the complexity of audio and video syncing so you can easily produce a final composition you love, the Facebook NPE team said

The social media giant also said that no musical training or experience is required to use the app. To create a collab, you're required to swipe on any row to bring in a new video clip that could sound good with your composition. Facebook said that it had optimised the experience for loads of setups after testing with dozens of headsets and hardware configurations since May. Users can now even use external audio interfaces to bring music from electronic instruments such as keyboards, guitars, and drum kits into their recordings. The collaborative iOS app was launched as an invite-only beta back in May by Facebook's New Product Experimentation  team and is now available for all iOS users in the US

The team has also made updates to the app, based on inputs from the beta test community. Collab allows users to create, watch, and mix and match original videos with a focus on music. A ‘collab' features three 15-second independent videos playing in sync. The app is designed to help users make music together even when they're not physically together.
