number one feature wish
By iona 6 (Pcmac user)
I enjoy working with this app, it really is great for generating ideas. If I could have one wish for a new feature it would be a record function that would work while "playing" scenes. I have made many chops that just do not play back exactly the same way when exported to either Launchpad or Ableton Live as they do when I'm switching between scenes in this app--this is because in this app you can essentially switch between two or more scenes that are running simultaneously rather than stopping and starting the scenes on the beat as in Launchpad or Live.
Would love to capture those grooves via audio inside the app and then export to DAW. A text-based manual PDF would also be helpful!

Powerful and stylish, still room for improvement
By magnusxelsv (Pcmac user)
As an iPhone Plus user who enjoys using portrait view music apps, this very attractive piece of software has become my main recorder of tracks from audiobus. The Iap sampling options make it easy to grab tracks off iCloud so I can chop a break over some of those recordings ,the ui just feels good to use and the focus on giving iPhone users a solid interface is much appreciated.
However there are some odd limitations, which mostly seem related to the resampling algorithms used to keep tune and timestretch. This includes being unable to play samples melodically or pitch them individually. This is somewhat made up for by the awesome little randomizer in the slicer plus I think limitations are a good thing, but if there's anyway even just individual samples could be transposed this would be amazing. Or maybe even just one more band on the Eq haha. A really nice product regardless!

An awesome creativity igniter
By I own the pc version (Pcmac user)
I have been using this app to assist in overcoming writers block and also to help spark new ideas. The samples are top notch and the UI is designed in such a way as to be intuitive and inspiring. All samples come pre-defined with tempo, key, type (melodic, percussive, bass, drums), and can be mixed and matched with ease.
The most valuable feature is the automatic time stretching allowing super experimental genre blending. It has your basic slip editing as well as EQ, and samples can be sliced to create different variations.
I do have some improvement suggestions for the devs. I’d like to see a 3rd export option: Export bank stems. You can currently sum a group and export that, but it would be nice to be able to get the individual stems without exporting the entire project with all 6 banks. Also, (and perhaps I missed it) but a solo feature would be nice. Who not flick down on a sample to mute it, and flick up on a sample to solo?
I have probably spent a good dozen or so hours in the app and I can confidently say this is an indispensable tool for any musician/producer at any level.
Note: when exporting sounds, always use WAV and make sure when importing into your DAW that your audio track is set to stereo, not mono. I saw a few noobs complaining it sounds bad when exporting and this is why.

Solid, Serious Music Creation App
By RashiHonser (Pcmac user)
The idea of making music on a phone or tablet seems like it would be just for play, but I am gotten real, great songs pieced together starting here with this app. The quality and diversity of their sound packs is amazing. Being an iPhone user you would think that you won’t get anything better than garage band-but trust me, get this app, maybe the companion apps also and some sweet in app purchases for two bucks each (not required but I have probably bought 30 of the sound packs because they are so good) and you will really expand your creativity and creation ability three times over. This is an amazing product and all of the stuff they put out has been stellar and I’m so happy it exists, and that I can get real songs down, not just tiny ideas.
