User reviews

Was great but stopped working

I enjoyed using this app, however now whenever I open it there is no sound. I can see the app is working but nothing can get the sound to work.

Response from developer

Hi! From time to time, after opening the loop browser view, you might accidentally switch the factory bank to the user bank. The user bank is initially empty, so you’ll hear silence. Check whether the loop selection buttons are labeled A, B, C, … or 1, 2, 3… You can switch banks using the button in the top-right corner of the browser. If you need additional support, feel free to contact me directly through support. Best regards!

No good as auv3

Good when playing standalone but doesn’t save recordings in files to load into garage band

Also doesn’t load properly auv3 either

In other words, it’s a toy but not a tool for production

Deleted and refund on its way

This is Fun

It’s a machine that works as intended

App doesn’t work as advertised

I’ve reached out to the developers multiple times about the recordings not saving to my device (like they advertised) and was met with a big nothing burger, no solution was offered but my messages were read. I’ve taken a break from using the app hoping that maybe an update would come out and fix the issue…I was wrong do not waste your money.

The most addictive app, straight gunfinger break crack!

Love this app, just been loving the new loop feature, really adds to the performance aspect, it’s a shame it replaced the reverse button, reverse samples are integral part of choppage, if we could have that back I would add the extra star in the review. Thanksfor the app anyhow, it’s amazing. It would also be amazing to have a midi mappable dj style hi/lo pass filter for performance, and perhaps in the future it would be nice to have banks of saved midi loops so they can be chained together to make 16 and 32 song mode style so I can focus on other parts of my arrangement . Perhaps other effects and break change selections could be baked into the sequences as well. I’d happily pay for in app upgrades and I’m sure others would , just like koala does. This could be the most amazing live break composer ever. It already is up there as the best on iOS. 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

Hey, We may have temporarily sent the Reverse button on a scenic tour, but we hear you loud and backwards! We’re already plotting its heroic return :) Also… noted on the “take my money” in-app upgrades — we appreciate both the support and the ambition! Much appreciated. Peace 🙌🏼
