About Pocket Sampler
Pocket Sampler is a low-latency application that lets you trigger and play audio samples with 20 different buttons. Buttons are organized inside of 6 pages and that gives you ability to load 120 different sounds at once. It’s mostly used by DJs live on stages to trigger the samples, but Pocket Sampler can be used in variety of different cases (for example triggering sounds in the film industry). It’s based on custom audio engine that provides the lag-free sample playback. This audio engine can be turned off in the settings if you have any problems with the playback. Every single button is customizable and has its own settings. For example, you can set the color, highlight color, title, and play mode for each button.
There are two different play modes:
- Click to Play (plays the sample when the button is clicked)
- Hold to Play (plays the sample while the button is being pressed)
Each button has its own gestures too, they can be customized and you can tweak the gesture sensibility.
Swiping the button up opens its settings, swiping down activates the loop, swiping left stops the playback and swiping right toggles the playback (play/pause).
To load a sample just hold the button for a second or two and it will open a list with all the available audio samples on your device. Note that you can use the folder explorer too.
Pocket Sampler supports MP3, WAV and AAC sound files.
You are also able to download free samples throughout the application using the download option.
Some of the features:
- Lag free playback using the custom audio engine
- Custom gestures for each button
- Custom settings for each sample player (volume, loop…)
- Six pages that give you ability to load 120 samples at once
- Different themes
- Sound recording using microphone
- Different play modes
- Full UI customizability
- Downloading samples from the online database
- Ability to switch between audio engines
- Unlimited projects

- Feedback option with the guaranteed response within 24 hours.

1. Being looking for this for awhile now, what if my device is down, how can i transfer to another device, or do i have to buy it again.. 2. After i install..... Can you give us an automatic update to add/fix: After i type the name in to view them on the button, it doesn't appear, and can u add a red button at the bottom to stop sample if you don't want it to play out... But i still love the software, just fix those 2 things

It works, but is very buggy. I can't get the titles to display. Full screen mode makes app unusable. I wasted my money.

Excellet! Exactly what I needed. My only suggestions would be to make the buttons easier to see, so I can see them in a lit room with light glare. Also, have a search dialog to help quickly find sounds I'm looking for in a list of thousands. Otherwise, perfect app! Good job!

This is what I needed. How do I get out of full screen mode once it's activated?

My band needs this to offer colored and labeled buttons so that they can be differentiated quickly on stage. Also it would cool if you can have different sets of 16 buttons. The app called Samply is almost perfect if not for annoying ads. I'd gladly pay more for an app if it had the features we needed,

I was looking for something to conveniently play prefabbed sounds for live performance. This does what it does well and keeps it simple. Very functional.

The sampler is simple and finds and plays sounds effectively and without noticeable delay. I plan to use it to trigger sound effects during live music performances. Naming each pad is a bit tedious and its annoying that it doesn't load up your samples on startup. I would love to see: * Automatically name sample pads using sample filename without extension. * Load saved samples on startup. * Being able to save and load multiple sets of samples with one as the default for loading on startup. * Save preference to show text on pads.

Hitting record will save a sample somewhere that does not appear to be used when assigning samples to the buttons. Since that was the reason I wanted this for I'm somewhat disappointed.

I must say this is a must get app.I am a mobile dj and I have been searching for a good sampler for the longest. So far this the best one on the market. 5 STARS.... And honestly I would have definitely paid more for this app.

I just want to say out of every app I've tried in this category this one is by far my favorite. It's just so simple and does exactly what it's supposed to without all the needed crap. If I wanted more features I go to my laptop but this is perfect for on the go experimenting with samples. Truly is a shame more people aren't as excited about this as I am. Maybe it just needs time.

I'm using this live on my phone to trigger drum tracks. The only problem I had was transferring mp3's via Google drive caused them to not work in this app but re-transferring them via usb fixed it. Would be nice to have an option to be able to set triggers to, one shot/loop & to be able to have each trigger playback it's sample while stopping any currently playing so I could use different beats for verse & chorus etc.
