Layered Recordings Revolutionize Music Creation on iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max
A groundbreaking update to Voice Memos lets users layer vocals on top of instrumentals directly from iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max, revolutionizing the way musicians create.

Voice Memos Update for iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max
Key Features: Layered Recordings with Vocal Overlays
- Layered Recordings: The latest update to Voice Memos introduces a new feature that allows users to layer vocal tracks over existing instrumental recordings on the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max, without the need for headphones.
- Advanced Technology: Powered by the A18 Pro chip, this feature uses advanced processing and machine learning to isolate vocal recordings, creating two individual tracks. These tracks can be further mixed and produced in professional apps like Logic Pro.
- Sync Across Devices: Layered Recordings are synced across devices, including Macs, where they can be easily dragged and dropped into a Logic session.
- Creative Freedom: Musicians can use various background instrumentals as the first layer and record vocals over them. The instrumental mix can be sent directly to Voice Memos from Logic Pro, making it convenient for on-the-go recording.
Artists' Experience
- GRAMMY Award Winners Collaboration: Michael Bublé, Carly Pearce, and Greg Wells collaborated to create the track “Maybe This Christmas” using the new Layered Recordings feature on iPhone 16 Pro. They share their experience in a behind-the-scenes video, highlighting how Voice Memos has become an essential tool for capturing moments of inspiration.
- Michael Bublé’s Testimonial: Bublé praises the flexibility and convenience of the new feature, emphasizing that it allows artists to record high-quality vocals without the constraints of traditional studio equipment.
Availability
- The Layered Recordings capability is available on iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max for users running iOS 18.2. It can also be shared and imported into Logic Pro for Mac (version 11.1 with macOS Sequoia 15.2) and Logic Pro for iPad (version 2.1 with iPadOS 18.2).
