Leave a Review AudioLayer
The only real true multi layer sampler
The sampler can import logic sampler files. What more can you ask forissieid
ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT
It’s a sampler and it’s great!!!! It simple to use plus not to mention a genius idea!!!! Why keep loading and setting up samples in BM3, Cubasis, Roland Zenbeats etc….. It’s an AU load everything here and load multiple instances in your daw!!!! No brainer right?!?!?!?!?! In addition to that you can save everything so when you buy a new iPad you just re-download you don’t reload!!!!Show lessPumpte

Finally a full sampler for iOS
I am shocked that this isn’t rated 5. This is the only true sampler for iOS and it is amazing. Everything is laid out in an easy to understand way so even beginners can get right to making a multi sampled, well, anything. And the more you delve into it the better it gets. Just the fact that it has the ability to auto sample makes it great. If you’ve ever used any hardware sampler, Mirage, Ensoniq ASR-10, Akai S series etc… this is what you are looking for. Hopefully in the future I would like to see some basic additions. Maybe a bit crusher to emulate older samplers or such. A more extensive EQ. Minor things. If you’re serious about music and making your own sounds, buy this.Show lessMauiBuck
Please
Please please please add warping!
This is already a fantastic app, what you sacrifice in storage space you gain in performance (lifesaver on older iPads), but the true potential here is huge - you can add layers upon layers of samples per note and split the whole keyboard into as many zones as your keyboard has keys…
But if only it had warping like in Ableton sampler, this would be the best app hands down, since any sample could become its own instrument and you would only need a handful of samples per synth to simulate the whole keyboard.
Not a small ask by any stretch, but I’d be willing to pay if it were an add on.
Love this app !Show lessPBUH91
DIY Instruments
The updated manual which details support for SFZ instruments and importing them is a welcome addition as you can really dive in to create your own custom instruments or modify existing ones you discover. It provides links to other resources to take advantage of what’s possible with sample instruments.
The visual feedback in AudioLayer is excellent for troubleshooting your sample instruments to verify they’re working as you’ve intended. The disk streaming works well to allow you to use large detailed sample sets. These sample instruments allow you to create various timbres from the same sample set. Round robin functionality allows your playing to be more varied and rich rather than mechanical.
There’s a wide range of high quality sample instruments available online. You don’t have to settle for the same old ones and you can customize them to make them your own. It’s a very efficient app and won’t grind your iPad to a standstill when you run multiple instances of the app.
There are some very nice instruments and useful orchestral instruments you can download from within the app.Show lesspolarpaul
Careful with latest update
This app is my workhorse sampler and has been rock solid for a long stretch. No longer. The last update has caused several issues—some are feature bugs that I can deal with because there are workarounds. The DSP spikes as an AU are really troublesome however. Nothing else in my rig has changed (still on iOS 13.3) so the spikes have to be caused by AL; I wish I could revert to the last version. No response from the developer through the website.Show lessSlaphappygrandpappy
Needs more work.
A batch import function and better sample file management with a search feature would go a long way.
For example, multi-select n .sfx files in either the Files App or AudioLayer built-in browser, share to AudioLayer or ‘import’ depending on the first option chosen, select or create a folder and presto! The current feature works, but imports them all to the same place.
I look forward to your response.Show lessTrident157
This is one of the best samplers! Some feature requests!
- please oh please have a store or easy way to download sound packs. (Users could even contribute content)
- timestretching would really really be huge! I want to import a sample, lock the tempo and pitch it up and down. If it could legato slide, perfection.

Plugin used to crash a bit a long time ago...
This has always been a decent app, and nowadays it might even be very good. I’ll definitely update this review as I explore the updates that have passed since I stopped using it because of an issue I used to have sampling as AUV3 fx. It would crash after sampling/configuring more than 5-6 samples/layers. I do feel like this has been addressed but since I’m only going about this from what I remember from reading the update notes of the updates I missed (which I read as such updates came out but never actually explored since I’ve been kind of busy ever since).
If this has been fixed I will come back for a 5 star update, as otherwise this app was pretty good even with the issues it had.Show lessEnrique Raphaël Page Pérez
