  • Keeps getting better

    There have been some hiccups, but it’s updated frequently. It’s a great alternative to kontakt on iOS since many free piano-book libraries support ds, including Dan Keen’s orchestral swells.
  • So much potential

    I cannot WAIT for this to be a nice and stable sampler in the future! Currently, it’s pretty meh though.
  • No pitch bend?

    The pitch bend wheel on my keyboard has no function with these sounds. I see no option to get it to midi learn the function. This is such a massive oversight of such a basic thing. Other than pianos, all the sounds available to this app require pitch bending to sound good. How in the world can an app like this not allow that? If I’m missing something I will be happy to learn about it and give this app a better review.

    Hi Kevin! Thanks for your review. Support for the pitch-bend wheel just got added. I hope you'll give Decent Sampler another shot.  – Dave
  • Glitchy sounds

    Although the sounds were ok to start off with, if you HOLD some notes long enough on all instruments (that are provided free) including the default piano, you will hear glitching, clicking and some strange after (ghost) sounds. If this is any indication of what you would get from a purchased (at $10 a pop) sampled sound, then I can’t recommend it until at least all the free samples are cleaned up. And hopefully there are not any problems with the purchased samples.

    Also, the program crashes when sometimes selecting a different sample from the file menu.

    FYI, I am using an iPad Pro for primarily for music. I have no problems like this from other programs that use samples.

    Hi!  Thanks for your review. Almost all of the these issues have been addressed since version 0.7.1. I hope you'll give it another shot!  Cheers,  Dave
