Heaps of fun!
Best app I have purchased in ages. Big hit with my kids too!
Well done sir Sampleton!!!
Well done sir Sampleton!!!
Well done sir!
What a great little app! Ive only had it about half an hour but already had loads of fun :) Its really simple to use and the quality is great! If I could add anything it would be more sample slots, though im not sure how that would fit with the clean UI.
Nicely done!
It would be nice to see the following in future releases:
- Sample gain adjustment
- Option to pitch shift without changing playback rate
- Basic record & layering features

Brilliant!
Easy to use, functional and very effective!
Great app!
Great app!
A couple of suggestions...
There isn't a way, as far as I can see, to turn off the loop function. Not all samples sound good looped especially when there are no provisions to select the begin and end points of the sample. So, if you want to sample something like a human voice with fade out to silence, it won't work.
Also, the SK-1, 1985 technology, had the ability to detect the 'dead/no sound' space in front of and behind the sample. After sampling, you'd press the loop button and it would only loop the audible portion of the sample.
An example of the benefit of this function: Sample the snap of two coins between your fingers. Press the playback and you get a very short click. Loop this and you get a nice sawtooth wave that plays back like a nice analog synth. Sir Sampleton won't do this. Using the same technique you only get a 'click-click-click-click' on playback.
Offering only some pre-selected length control for your samples (as well as some trailing echo) leaves Sir Sampleton, I'm afraid, in it's novelty stage. Although it can sample faithfully and playback with minimal aliasing, the constant looping leaves little creative control and lends for more frustration than creation.
Simple enough for children? Sure.
Useful for musicians and producers? Not at this stage.

Totally Amazing
Okay: one, it's about as dead simple as it gets. BRAVO!
Two, the graphics are pitch perfect. Paul, you've done an amazing job with this. I cannot recommend this enough to anyone. So entertaining. I was instantly inspired to make a lot of fun little lines that sounded totally unique because it was all sampled from my world!
I've downloaded nearly every worthwhile music app in the iTunes store, and this is one of my top 3.
