  • it's saying it's not compatible.

    I assume it''s an amazing app, but I have an ipod touch 3rd generation, which it says samplewiz is compatible with, but when i go to install it on my ipod it says it's not compatible. Why isn't it working?
  • Refund please

    What a buggy and trashy iPad app. I agree with the first statement of the reviewer, and regretfully it does not work. It crashes all the time on the iPad so be warned don't waste your money on this app. The developer has cheated me out of money, so therefore I will contact the police, and the officer of fare trading. As theft is theft. Please be warned apple will also be informed of your criminal intent to defraud the public, and if I lived next door too you, I would give you a complete good telling off. What is your claim to fame serving at her majesties pleasure. As it won't be long before your collar is felt by the long arm of the law..
    Justice will prevail.

  • Great sound design tool

    I have been looking for a sampler use in a creative way. This is it. I like to find the hidden sound within a sound and this app excels in taking a found sound to an unexpected place. It is intuitive to use and sounds really good.

    The three sample playback types give you a lot of options. The regular option of changing pitch slower or faster playback is the one we are most familiar with. It works as you would expect. The granular option is great for taking a sound into nasty sounding territory. My favorite is the option called Modern. It preserves a great deal of the character of a sound for much more of the full keyboard range without turning it into a "chipmunk" sound.

    There are options for control volume with the position of your fingers on the keys. It makes for some expressive playing.

    The only complaints that I have is that the name sounds like it's some sort of urine testing kit and the wizard cartoon that looms up from the background is distracting while in use. There is no end to how annoying that cartoon becomes and I think it undermines the seriousness of this wonderful, creative app. I really wish there was a way to turn off this last feature.

    Over all it is Fab.

  • What a delight!

    Need I say more? This is yet another incredible app from Wisdom Music. What's so wonderful about the efforts Jordan, Kevin and team have put into this is that, like other apps Jordan has either made or sponsored, the fundamental control and performance ideas are truly revolutionary uses of the multi-touch interface.

    While replications of traditional synthesizers, DAWs and sequencers on iPad/iPhone are interesting, they really don't leverage the unique possibilities of this kind of interface.

    Morphwiz, and now Samplewiz, like Hexatone, do. In spades!

    But not at all at the expense of lovely sound quality, either. The musical and sonic possibilities of Samplewiz simply go beyond what's possible anywhere else.

    At a time when the big-corporation MI business seems to be getting increasingly conservative and unimaginative in their latest offerings, rehashing tech and interfaces they've been purveying for almost 20 years.... wow. What a refreshing and stunning inspiration this is!

    Thanks, peoplez! Keep on going! I hear Ipad3 is not far over the horizon. I'll be buying it for your apps above anything else.

  • Amazing

    Can master up some great sounds and recording is good fun! only gripe I have is that it is such a battery killer! 10 mins and it goes down like 15% apart from that it's solid!
  • Another home run

    Sample Wiz is proof that a good music app needs an expert to oversee all aspects of its production. Rudess seems to have found the right partners for these projects as they have channeled his expertise beautifully into not only practical but also fun apps.

    Also, like MorphWiz, SampleWiz is both for the novice as well as the expert. I personally may be a drummer, but I too am loving this app for its intuitive interface and great entertainment.

    The last preloaded sample was a very nice touch. Thanks Jordan!

  • Great sampler

    This thing is fantastic great for recording samples and synth effects it's a must have for dream theater fans
  • Love it!

    This app is seriously amazing. I loved bebot And never did buy Morphwiz so when I heard about your new app I HAD to have it. Started ripping out DT melodies and learned very quickly. Everything looks pretty, is functional and sounds great. I would add wave reverse and that's all. Jordan Rudess knows what else to add.

  • Wow

    This app will truly blow your mind. I bought it mainly to use jordan's sounds in my own music but this is capable of so much more. It's like morph wiz in keyboard/sampler form. Well worth the money. I can't see how they will be able to update it, there is nothing wrong with it and I see nothing that needs improvement. It's all awesome but I expect Jordan will find a way to make it even better and blow our minds past what they already are.
    Thanks for all the cool apps Jordan, we'll see YOU on the road!

    Top marks to Jordan and co. on making the future of music making even better and more enjoyable than it already is.
