## What is Async Sampler?

Async Sampler, a powerful musical instrument designed to bring your soundscapes to life. This flexible tool is dedicated to crafting captivating sound collages, dynamic asynchronous textures, rhythmic patterns, and rich sound designs. It opens up a world of creative possibilities, making it the perfect companion for music producers, sound designers, ambient, and noise enthusiasts. Whether you're a seasoned musician or a curious explorer, Async Sampler is here to inspire and elevate your musical journey. App comes with a rich library of unique samples, and you can easily upload and use your own sounds.

Async Sampler fundamentally consists of three samplers that can reproduce sound asynchronously, meaning they can operate without being tied to a specific BPM, or synchronously, using an external MIDI clock source or the tempo of your project if you're using Async Sampler as an AUv3 plugin. The instrument features a versatile LFO that allows you to control any parameter. Async includes an effects processor and a master bus section. Also, you have the option to use external MIDI controllers, save and load your custom presets and samples, among other features.

— Standalone and AUv3 versions

— Extensive sample library out of the box
— Ability to upload your own samples
— Asynchronous and synchronous playback modes for each sample

### 5/5 — Excellent sampler

*2025-03-30*

This is pretty fun to use, and would be very useful for a lot of different styles of music making as well as sound design.

### 5/5 — It’s aliiiiiiive!!!!

*2025-02-15*

This thing takes 3 samples and syncs them up at different speeds if wanted , has built in LFOs to put on every parameter and spits out something original and ridiculously cool. I put 3 samples of raw high voltage electricity through it and the result was an industrial track that was bone chillingly cool, timed perfectly to anything else I added like drums, synths on top. Awesome. Would love multiout, this app rules

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2025-01-18*

Wish it had more sampler spots that will make it tops 
Otherwise I love the minimalist design 
Really easy to use

### 5/5 — Didn’t know I needed this

*2024-10-05*

This is an amazing app… it has helped me out of a creative block and I’ve been able to literally create an entire album using just this app.  Really hoping for an update soon that will allow resampling!!  Please keep working in this app dev!  It’s worth it!

### 5/5 — Useful and powerful app

*2024-09-07*

This is already a great app!  It’s useful and powerful.

### 5/5 — Dope app - lots of fun tons of potential

*2024-04-27*

Really great app w fun new ways to get after sound design. Hope app gets steady updates and feature adds so it keeps evolving as well.

### 2/5 — This doesn’t sync properly in AUM

*2024-04-16*

I don’t know why, but when I tried to use this in AUM, all samples play at ridiculously fast speeds when synced. I think I’ll stick to file player as this is unreliable and almost unusable.

**Developer response:** You can adjust the speed of the samples in sync mode by slowing them down or speeding them up by 2, 4, 8, etc. times.

### 5/5 — Absolutely love it!

*2024-04-16*

This is by far my favourite iOS music making app. I love working with samples and this fits perfectly with my intentions. I’m not entirely sure what I’m doing yet but what I do know for sure is that this manages to capture the balance of ‘do’ / ‘happening’ perfectly. Believe me I’ve been searching for a long, long time for this balance - at last, I feel a sense of utter relief. All that remains to be said is thank you, thank you so very much indeed. Excellent stuff! Please keep this thing going, you’ve created something very special here. If I had one request it would to add the ability to actually sample inside the app as an audio effect. Unfortunately this feature is very much overlooked within iOS apps in general -  I find it quite odd.

### 1/5 — What happened to the Mac support?

*2024-04-05*

I bought this and was using it on my iPad and my Mac. But the new version is not compatible with my Mac. What gives?
