USE IT LIVE ON STAGE!
Just to update from my last review ... I use SampleTank live on stage. I use a nord electro 3HP which doesn't layer so I use the Sample Tank app for pad sounds (via the Alesis IO DOCK) and all is good in the on stage world :)

Hopes for New version of sampletank in the future
Hello developers my name is Jonavin I thank you guys for updating sampletank for the ipad on iOS. I have been a yearly user of it and I really liike it but on the other hand I have a question would there be any possibility of you guys making another version of sampletank for the iPad in the future if there is any plans for a sampletank 5? Thanks
Wish it was AUV3
This is a high end app with some of the best sounds. Wish devs would invest more time in updates this year and make it Auv3. Would be nice to have all the sounds like i have with the desktop version. Desktop accounts should be allowed to have all the sounds on the mobile version since we invest so much money in this product. Its time to be able to use these sounds in Cubasis and Logic Pro for ipad. Dont throw away this awesome apps updates and expansions. Please!
It needs more sounds
Why can’t I use ALL of the sound packs for free? Why do I have to pay so much money if I want to purchase other sound packs? Also, it needs more sounds!
Crashes constantly with iOS 18.2.1
This used to work quite well. Does not seem to support latest iOS at all
Important App! Please update!
I love this app and even have the MAX version on my PC. Please update!
Lost Money
Downloaded the Sampletank Pro for $65.. and I didnt get any new sounds added in my app. All the sounds are still greyed out. The company is terrible with support, you can’t even reach anyone to get this issue resolved.
Not usable anymore - abandonware!
IAA(inter-app-audio) has been phased out. You can’t use the sounds in Logic Pro.
Had high hopes. 🤷♂️ Good but needs work.
I had high hopes for this app when I purchased it years ago. I’ve used it live a few times but always felt a little limited on the polyphony. It has pretty good sounds. I recently purchased more in app sounds. The app is good for using one sound at a time and maybe the drum samples but it will drop notes when you play. I had some issues in live mode with stuck notes when enabling and disabling sounds from a set. Over the years I’ve tried to in corporate it with other apps but I think it’s better to choose it for a drum track or an instrument and not both. Overall it is more stable than some of the other apps I’ve used. Going forward I’ve decided to try to spend money on auv3 apps from reputable developers. It can be a challenge trying to go back and forth between apps running in the background. I have the IK Total studio on my laptop. Seeing this app has not really been updated in a long time it’s hard to suggest investing a lot of money in it. I kind of thought it would be a big difference when I purchased the other sounds recently but think it was not a good idea after spending more time with it lately I wish I had put that towards more gear or other auv3.
Switch
Have you considered revisiting and making this AUv compatible? Would love to use it.
