Its great !!

Very responsive and good interface. Small bugs that will be fixed asap no doubt. Love to see where ti goes !
Hoping for some features like background audio, more tweakable cut points , more visually appealing and control surface for the waveform, bpm per sample etc.
Lot of unique things to be done and Alex has the right start !,
Having fun in the meanwhile !!

Amazing implementation of concept...

Crazy app for glitching breaks and vocals. Would request same features as Matt minus maybe midi sync as I only use iPod and don't connect devices up to it. Compliments iOS DAWs such as Nanostudio beautifully! Very minor bugs which are already about to be fixed in next update. Nice work Distraub. Given me some more creative ideas i'd normally reserve for big desktop DAWs that I can now apply to mobile instead and work on the fly.

Great for amatures

If you wish to use this app as an quality application, good luck. I tried audiopaste (there's no itunes easy import feature) and it just crashes and doesn't even allow me to properly set the bpm. I spent several hours working up some custom loops for use in a live show, but this wouldn't properly load it and kept crashing. Waste of time and money.

Great start

This app has lots of potential, I hope to see some better syncing up of loops and fx, sample offsets and ext midi sync would make this first class and I hope the dev brings these features soon.

Beat Glitching made easy(ish)

It's extremely fluid and absolutely amazing for anyone who enjoys cutting some insane breaks. I'm in love with the quantization divisions seemingly going endlessly into infinity. A few small problems. Glitchbreaks crashes a lot. About 95 percent of the time when importing via audio copy paste it crashes. Also when switching rapidly between editing the loop modulation and the glitch pads, the playback stops until I select a new cut. Not a major issue, I just have to be aware not to do that.

I am hoping for some effects with the same fluidity I'm finding in the glitch pad. Maybe decimate/lo-fi, distortion/overdrive, HP/LP... Basic effects with a smooth and generally awesome interface like what we have so far in glitchbreaks.

Between Beatshuffler, loopTwister, glitchBreaks, chippad (and a few other obscure apps), glitchBreaks has the best implementation of this general concept (beatslicing/beatdestroying/ect). Glitchbreaks has the best import and export of audio clips, as long as the clips are the specified length otherwise longer clips will create major stuttering issues. Between looptwister and glitchbreaks I'm having loads of fun destroying beats. I highly recommend it.
