what a great app! Very intuitive and straightforward, wow, you can literally make a song in minutes using just your phone, and a quality one. One thing that restricted me giving 5 stars was that you can record only while pressing the record button. If I could leave the recording on, and record a guitar track and sample it, then it would be perfect! (And I know that you can import an audio, but it’s too much of a hussle recording it elsewhere and the importing, getting timing right etc)
So so soooo much fun
Now if this would work as an AUv3 plugin, it would be the best sampler ever!
Perfect sampler for your phone or tablet
This app is a dream come true. Very intuitive and simple to use. Please consider adding a zoom function to the waveform edit window. Also a choke/mute group function would be awesome.
5/5 app, I recommend it to everyone.
Great app with one little fix needed
I love using this app! It is very easy to use and use it on a good bit of my music projects. The one thing that I hope gets fixed is under the sequence part of the app. After you double tap one of your sequences to expand it to view each individual clip being used in the track you can move to anywhere in the track to listen align your clips up for smooth transition from one clip to another, buuuut when you do that the current clip that is playing you will lose sound on and then when the next clip kicks in the sound comes back and this makes it very tricky to get your transitions to align seamlessly and if your clips are long then you have to keep going back to the beginning and listen to almost the entire track again to hear if you aligned your clips correctly. Hope I explained that w/o it sounding tooo confusing haha. Again Love this app but please fix this if possible. Thanks again for developing a fun app!
honestly a bad music sampler for 6 bucks
this is a great sampler if you want to record your own samples, but if you want to chop songs together you are getting the wrong sampler. it dosnt have any bpm editing, and the samples play over themselves. not even adding how hard it is to edit the song in to the sample you like. it seems this is a app for sound sampling like for a movie not for music sampling.
Underrated
This app is by far the most intuitive best making/sampling app I’ve used so far. Can’t even compare to the others because that would be unfair.
LOVE THE APP BUT………
I want to start off by saying.. I LOVE this App!! But… A list of things I would like to make this app even better.
1.) this one gets all caps MAKE THE RECORD/PLAY BUTTON BIGGER PLEASEEE!!
( I gotta try and use the tip of my pinky and it’s still to big for this button) lol
and put it in every section meaning: Mixing area, including effects area of the mixer. Sample area etc.
2.) Allow a hold button for note repeat while in the grid or keyboard section.
3.) This one is not that big of a deal but..,
It would be nice for send availability for any sound; of already made effects.
Meaning: Let’s say Bus ABCD have effects,
I could create a send for any sound and use those effects as well, without putting them on the bus.
In closing.. I’m finding myself using this more then my DAW’S GREAT WORK!!
Thanks,

5 Stars upon fixing the record button.
Because it stresses me out trying to hit that button, while being creative/finding a sound I’m trying not lose in the process of trying to hit the tiniest record button with my pinky and trying not to hit the play/stop button right next to it.
Works good
No problems just learning how to use it.
This app rules so so hard
That’s the review!
Enhancing User Experience: The Value of Undo and Redo Features in the Sampler Overlay
The Sampler overlay is user-friendly and offers seamless navigation through its tools. Including an undo and redo feature would be a valuable addition to the app.
