.... and hands down the best music production, remixing, live looping, sample triggering, et al, app in all of android is the fact that u cannot hook up a simple pad controller like my vestax pad one or even an akai lpd8 to use with the app. if you all could add that functionality, it would be the high water mark, no doubt imo. that said, i still use it more than any other app on mobile platforms, but really there is no reason to not allow for midi pad controller mapping/integration....

I have been using it for a year and a half now, and it still astounds me. I have it on lower latency so the samples play a little out of tune which means you have to manually tune them by ear. Musicians and producers who can play or arrange by ear this is a tool that would be a mistake not to own. I've loaded serious samples into this app and can get super clean recordings from within the app itself and into a external recorder via 1/4 to dual rca to tape in on a mixer. It's simple to understand and can get to working immediately as a studio tool or a live performance tool.

I <3 This thing. Paired with other apps, loops, wav files, this thing is a little beast. Very basic effects processor but effective none the less. I use this on a tablet so the work flow is easy i wouldn't reccomend this for a phone. No Midi which is ok because it makes you work within limitations and makes the production process more fun and less like a DAW. For an app this thing lets your track and samples breathe like a old school groove box or mpc.

This is an amazing app for the price. I think the main issue for negative feedback is some want a full fledge studio on a small device. Not going to happen. I mix digital and analog together to open up limits for great apps like this. Is there any sound packs or patches out there for this?

X70%
by X####:

I've come across a few apps both on iOS and Android that claim a lot but deliver little! This however does exactly what it says. Little bit of a trick to get my own samples in - bit of an RTFM moment! Would be nice to have a dedicated mixer page with sixteen slide faders and also mute and solo buttons.
