Flip Sampler

1，为什么没有保存和放弃更改选项？？？？？？开发者真的会自己用这个软件吗？？？ 2，复制粘贴严重bug，长按粘贴的功能简直是愚蠢，把我的工程粘贴的到处是音符，当我打算长按选中它们时就会出来更多的音符，开发者真这个软件当回事了吗？？？ 因为以上bug我做了三天的工程变成了一堆垃圾，所以我不会再用这个软件了

期待更多功能更新

也是冲着Andrew Huang买的，在他的频道学习了很多东西，也算是投桃报李吧

Andrew Huang 做的软件所以就买了... 几乎是把所有专业的功能全放到那里了。但是还是很有限制性，比如说整个软件里没有压缩器，没有太多的自带音色等等。

Flip can definitely be used to make some great beats. It’s logically laid out, intuitive to learn, generally fun to use, and can do a lot, despite being limited to 9 sample pads (unlike the multiple banks of 16 pads each on an app like the IMPC). The help function is very useful and well-implemented. I love this thing overall, and it’s easier to use than the IMPC, but it does have some areas where operation can be frustrating and could be improved. I don’t know how feasible it’d be to have separate mixer settings, FX settings and samples for each pattern within a program, but it’d be highly useful and much appreciated. I can live without that, though. Limitations can breed creativity. More importantly, I’ve found the multitrack tape recorder and stem export functions to be buggy—which is frustrating, because they’re also incredibly useful for getting the sequences into a DAW as a multitrack session…when they work right. My stem tracks have randomly come out incomplete and different lengths (or with no sound) for no apparent reason; then when I try again with the same settings, everything renders perfectly and with matching lengths. Nasty clipping distortion also happens much more easily on rendered tracks than is audible when listening in the mixer; I’ve often had to re-render stems several times in a row, with elements of the mix turned down more and more, before I could get a clean result. The app also seems to have crashed on me a couple times, but it’s constantly autosaving, which is a fantastic feature that helps make crashes much less frustrating. Despite the sometimes annoying drawbacks, this app is fantastic value and I’d recommend it. Just be aware that it’s seemingly not perfect. Hopefully the stuff I describe will be fixed (or it’s all just the result of me doing something wrong). The app’s definitely still fun and useful overall.

I want to love this app. Typically it’s a great tool for improvising & sketching out melodies & percussion ideas. But there’s unfortunately too much inconsistency & bugs with sample recording. Half the time it works great - I hit the record button & hum a note or make some sort of drum sound with my mouth & flip automatically find the starting point. But more often it seems to just be latching onto a bit of noise (according to the waveform) or sometimes the waveform looks correct, but it just won’t play back my recording at all. Not sure if this is just a problem for me or if it’s a common occurrence. Other than that bug it’s usually a great & fun app.

I love making beats on this software and messing with it on my computer, this is a seamless process of recording samples, to recording session, to saving to my iCloud, to editing software it’s amazingly simple. I would give it 5 stars but have a simple grape with the app now won’t let me upload things to it to use not sure why but gives me an error, but other then that I love this app I like restarting sample pads so it wasn’t to much of an inconvenience. I do have a update idea, have the option to maybe edit names of the pads page and also maybe have the option to change the colors of them. That would be amazing to helping me decipher my pads lol. But thanks for making a great app!

TL;DR don't rely on any one DAW especially this one that's still new. An apple pen might come in handy more than not. It's about the sampler for quick ideas and fun not detail but it's still handy.------------------- Inspired by Andrew Huang and excited to hear of his new app I bought the latest iPad mini (not sure if it's as good as his phone he uses for the videos) and thought it was very innovative and still do. My problem is making mistakes on the daw is troublesome to fix when the playlist sequencer is the most difficult to use out of my others (beatmaker 3 and cubasis, even GB). The metronome isn't working for me either and sometimes you can lose samples if not saved correctly in flip. Itd be nice to handle your notes in sequence without richocheting a bunch of copy pasta and then having to tirelessly undo them individually. New criticism: I made a beat with a similar name to another project I did a while back ( I'm lucky I finished exporting that beat into a song or this would be a lot angrier) and when I tried to rename the beat i did a while back whilst still being on the newer beat I made, flip app overwrote what I made with my older beat with the new beats contents. This is something I couldn't undo with the undo arrow. This app is too old to have some crap like this happening but I'm grateful I was proactive about that beat or I'd have literally destroyed it from a simple mistake. Cmon guys.

So got a developer response to last review and the response was to delete a sample. Click click click click. Exactly my point it’s Not intuitive. I have to click down a bunch of menu diving to delete a sample. The developer didn’t listen to my review. They didn’t take anything to heart. They heard a criticism and shrugged it off. They should have listened to me and others saying we like the app it’s just not intuitive. Instead of blowing us off let’s make the app fun and useable. Below is my new updated review from 080123 I’ve had this app since day one. I keep up with all updates and truth is it’s just too complicated to get simple things done. Not a good app. Sounds good but UI is horrible. Such a waste. Also after new update tue pattern delete doesn’t work. And when I try to copy a pattern it won’t go to section I drag it but instead one Over from where I drag it. Can’t figure out basic things like piano roll. Sure re watch the tutorial videos everytime I try to like the app but I’m an experienced musician with every professional iOS music pro app and I can’t figure basic feature. This is Still not an intuitive app. Take more presses and time to get basic things done. And please for the sake of all that’s holy. Put labels on things. The ridiculous icons are a waste of space and energy. They aren’t intuitive. On a good note the app sounds good. Shame it’s useless compared to similar apps. Hey recently came across a new app that’s awesome and intuitive. Dreambeat or something lol. Dawnneat that’s it. I was making full tracks within 3 minutes with it. Compare that to an hit with this app and don’t even have a decent beat. I give up on this app. Deleting again.

It’s a great sampler app and does ever want it to do yet there is something not fun about it. I feel bad because it’s a good app. I can’t put my finger on it. Maybe it’s because we are forced into landscape view or maybe because I can’t figure out how to easily delete a sample. Like koala just drag sample to trash. This I’m not sure how. It really sounds great and has almost every feature I want. Maybe it’s the overall appearance of the UI which is nice but just not inviting to me. The menus on side always being there drive me crazy they distract me from what I’m trying to do. Got to be a way of hiding them! I open it and play with it and then close it and spend hours In koala. Im not sure why. I really feel bad because this is a good app. There is just something about it that keeps me from using it. I must have deleted it and reinstalled it 10x. Everytime I think wow this does everything. Then I find myself not wanting to use it and closing it. Andrew you’ve made a great app. Hopefully other users are articulating better than I. Hopefully updates keep coming and something changes so I want to use it.
