### 1/5 — First loop always fixed

*2025-08-22*

This looper is very rigid, as you always need to play with the built in metronome at a pre-fixed tempo. No possibility to record freely and close the loop out of time, whenever you like. No so called “first loop capacity”. Too bad!

### 5/5 — Working aok

*2025-01-24, version 1.42*

Tx

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2024-11-03, version 1.42*

if you are creative you can make a lot happen with this. i made a beautiful cover of just for now by imogen heap using just this app and my live monitor. amazing!

### 2/5 — No Seamless looping!

*2024-10-25, version 1.42*

The looping are absolutely not seamless!!!
The reverb is awfull, it sound more like a distorsion …?!?

### 4/5 — Fun app. Let me set measure number!

*2024-09-20, version 1.42*

Fun, works well for standard pop tunes. Would rate higher if I could set my own measure number. Can’t figure out how to loop a 12 measure blues lick.

### 4/5 — Ja so isset

*2024-06-21*

Vor Jahren gekauft immer noch nice.

### 1/5 — Crashes on iPad 6th gen and iPhone X

*2024-03-25, version 1.42*

I just downloaded it, I want this app to work so bad, it’s awesome until it crashes. I use VoiceJam Studio and Loopy HD during live performances and they work great, I just wanted to try something new, please fix this so I can show your app off on stage too! As soon as the crashes stop I can give it 4 stars. It’ll get 5 when I can record the session, and not just save the loops. Voice jam studio and loopy hd let you do that. Also add an in app record session!

### 5/5 — Molto bene

*2023-12-03, version 1.42*

Looper fantastico, lo uso con Aum.
Ho riscontrato però un problema con la funzione overdub, mentre registro sopra alla traccia esistente il suono reale è tutto distorto

### 3/5 — Good app but crashes in Logic Pro iPad

*2023-11-30*

Good pp, but crashes in Logic Pro IPad, cannot be used as Instrument Plugin either as AudioEffect Plugin.

### 3/5 — I ain’t smart

*2023-11-05, version 1.42*

But if I was this might be easier
