FourTracks Pro for Android
I have used this app for years. Now on Galaxy phone i cant get menu at all for previously recorded songs, name songs etc.....bummer. Great till now. I figured it out. Hold down back button dont just tap and menu appears.
The worst app experience I have had. Almost all the controls are hidden or invisible and there is literally nothing to help you. For a long time my app was not functioning properly and I didn't know simply because the menu or option could have been ANYWHERE. I'll happily change the review if you even include a help manual, but really it needs a complete UI overhaul. I gave it two stars because it actually functions fine, but took me the better half of an hour (and a paid add-on) to get it there. Edit: I take it back. Doesn't recognise headphone microphones so essentially useless because the speaker and mic are next to each other. Do not buy.
Seems some buttons have disappeared which no longer allows me to even access my menu. Also, maybe a way to adjust tones. Something simple like bass, mid and treble would be useful. Edit: looks like it may not be compatible with the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge. No menu buttons on these phones. Can't save or convert files anymore on this device. New edit: Figured it out! Changed the heading, back to great app!
This app is a piece of sh#%&!... Accept your payment then won't let you in shows on error message to go to support well where the hell is support go to their website opens on to some other page and wants donations can't get into email should refund this is garbage
I used this app for a long time and it was spectacular. I switched to the Galaxy s7 edge and since the update to the app, there is no option to save your work or open previous works. All I could do is record and nothing else. Was a great app but now to look elsewhere.
I've been using the lite version and just upgraded. Haven't tried anything out as far as the paid only but the program is great so far. Easy to understand. BTW if your only able to record 1 min try selecting new project(or new). 1st thing it does is ask what you want to name it and under that is a selection 1min 3min 5min. Also headphones work just fine with it which is good because I think they are a must for level managing. The only downfall is some tracks can lag behind which can make it a 3track...
Where's all the controls. All I get is one screen that shows the tracks. No controls. No screen for metronome controls. No buttons to name song or mix down or import. Same thing I got on your free one. Thought I'd I paid the 4 bucks it would work right..... Wrong..... I want my money back......
I am unable to export any of the files I created using this program. Disappointing buy plus their website is down. This is a total scam, do not buy!!
Sorry for the bad rating but the only thing I can do is record. I want to make music and can't. I'm not satisfied why pay 7 bucks Just to record?
Never had recording latency before on sgs2. After update it suddenly appeared. Please allow playback even when screen is locked thanks
It's stuck in my very 1st project. No option to save,export,or to start a new project. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG
bought four tracks pro when I had my Nexus 5. Now Ive got LG G 4 and have a problem with the app: there is no menu. I cannot do anything because the 3 dots on the right side do not exist. Please help
What's up with the HORRIBLE LAG/Latency problems I've been having since I returned back from a yr of not using the app...?!? I've bought ALL your converters (and APPS, actually) and I record with quality headphones, so could you PLEASE explain to me what I might be doing wrong? Thanks
I just payed 10 bucks for your two apps. I have always loved four tracking because i like all four music elements. Youd better fix the clipping in the pro on the next update or zero stars and a refund is in order... Otherwise great easy to use app
I like this app, it is great to use it allows me to do what I need to do and be prepared before my studio session. BUT, NOW THE APP WON'T LET ME VIEW OR OPEN MY PROJECTS AND IT WON'T ALLOW ME TO CREATE ANY NEW PROJECTS WHICH REALLY SUCKS! For that, low Rating! PRO VERSION SHOULD BE ON POINT :-(
Tracks sound great til you export them. Then quality drops drastically. Also, why a five minute limit? Could it not just be open ended or at least have longer options?
Use your device menu button to access the app menu; long tap / hold. It exports and mix's down to 2 track wav or ogg. A great tool for writing and learning, and nice for that. It's not intended to be a recording studio. For a few dollars it's an awsome deal and works great. I think those having trouble expect to much from a cell phone app, and have no concept of the limitations imposed as such. Manual latency correction is onboard and it works. 44100K is pro CD level at 16 bit. Recommended.
I have recorded a 4 track sequence on my Sony Xperia Z2 phone, just by inserting the headset mike into the soundhole on my Gretsch semi acoustic guitar. At 44Khz the quality is quite good with zero latency on any track. I did put the phone in Airplane mode to reduce the load on the processor. Have mixed it to a wave file OK. For me to consider this a serious recording studio app, it would need a pan option to enable mixdowns to a stereo track, and be capable of recording via USB-OTG. But at £2.41 it's fun.
This really sucks. There is no way to save one song and to record next one. Don't pay for this garbage. Fckn bastards.
I used the s*** out of this app with my galaxy S4, but when I upgraded to S5 the phone doesn't have the menu button anymore and all updated apps have those three little dots up in the corner to replace it, but this one doesn't so I'm unable to save/export/create new/switch projects...:-(
I was wondering if there is anyway you can allow me to download the app again and to the same phone. I had to actually reset my phone and I lost all of my apps there were several recording apps that I purchased and lost. It would be most appreciated if you would allow me to redownload your app cuz I would love to try thank you chris buchanan
I have been using it for a year I recomend it for use on my Samsung note which is a1 recording even extreme loud African drumming to quiet room guitar solos. Uninstalled and reinstalled no extra cost from google play ♥
It says to download a audio converter but no search results i just wanted to import my wave files please tell me u can fix it
Doesnt rekonise mp3 files downloaded from tube mate, says theres an error and wont let me import. Its the only way that i can get certain instrumentals that i want (tube mate). Whats wrong, please fix. Have not yet had the oppertunity to use the app properly. It imports other mp3 files downloaded from other mp3 downloader apps, but not ones through tube mate. Do not have any other way of getting hip hop instrumentals, do you?
I have the same problem as hector, I think that should be fixed, or update it so I can import
A good start! However, PLEASE add basic track editing, so we can manually fix the delay.
This app is very rad!! SO glad they allow you to manually adjust the time after you've recorded. Makes it cake to line up. A+++ app!!
It's a good app, but offers too little for the price, since there is another app that offers a lot of effects and less limitations for the same price
Excellent for rough demos. Easy to use and gets the job done. Ability to bounce tracks a real plus. Haven't found any better music recording app on Android. Not garageband but does what you need well.
Works great on several different android phones I've installed it on. I recorded a song solely on my android phone with this app. I added verb, compression, limiting on my pc. The song just got signed to a music library, so this app works!
There's definitely a delay on playback of additional tracks, after multiple times recording in perfect time with first track. Not a good thing for a recording app at all....
So far the best android recording app I've found though still has issues. Won't loop on MyTouch 4g and I was hoping they'd've fixed the issue where it won't record with any microphone headphones for the pro version. Still useful for remembering tunes
Its idea just have a good head set with mic
Is there a better way to fix the latency issues I'm having? More often than not (on playback), the more tracks I add, the worse it gets. I've used the manual adjustment setting, and I've even gone as far as restarting the app, and even my phone. Any ideas...?
I really don't have any complaints
I know exactly what I'm doing with it. Granted, it needs some add ons but as it is now it's awesome. Combined with Pocketband this app is amazing. Worth it!
Separate purchase is required to convert wave or mp3. Once purchased, converter crashes every time. Tried to get refund, but was unsuccessful.
If we were able to bring up another window so we could look at our lyrics would be 5 stars
Not worth it lite version is just add good. Only difference is you can't change sample rate in lite. Metronome and loop and cut and paste wouldn't work in full got a refund.
