### 4/5 — Nice but no manual

*2022-02-16, version 1.4.6*

In a way, this app is clunky, the graphics are simple, but functional. The best thing, and the developer points this out, is that you can create your own sounds and that is huge. The best thing that the developer could do is to write up a simple owner's manual. His tutorials on YouTube are fair, and there is another video that is a bit better, but a written manual would answer all the questions any user might have.

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2016-12-23, version 1.4.6*

I love this app! It's perfect for beat making! I'm surprised no one else reviewed this awesome app!

### 5/5 — Problem with 6 plus

*2014-12-05, version 1.4.5*

UI doesn't fill the entire 6 plus screen.

### 2/5 — Continues to struggle with Audiobus after all this time

*2014-10-20, version 1.4.4*

This one has been with me for years and though it has a respectable drum synth engine and an excellent performance mode the continuing issues with Audiobus are tiresome. The latest update is said to address such issues- honestly I had not used the app for some time so I fired it up in Audiobus to see if there was indeed a problem and the all too familiar lack of sound had crept back in. I did the update and still nothing. Without Audiobus functionality this app goes from 4 to 2 stars; the sounds, while customizable still fall a little flat without the benefit of some additional FX and aside from the neat performance mode the user interface is rather clunky and not  ideal for jamming.

### 5/5 — Most Excellent!

*2014-06-02, version 1.4.3*

I was looking for a single app for live performance that could deliver a good e-drum and bass vibe, with built in sequencer that could play chromatic scales (any note), plus MIDI support and clock output. This was the only app I could find at a realistic price that would do it all. And it sounds great! And its well thought out and easy to learn!

Highly recommended

### 5/5 — Still a great drum machine

*2014-01-02, version 1.4.3*

I've come back to iOS after two years and was pleasantly surprised to see this is still being updated. It's definitely one of the best "analog style" drum machines on the App Store and has been since 2009. Great job dev!

### 5/5 — Changing 3 stars to 5.....

*2013-03-30, version 1.4.1*

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

For updating the parameter motion fix! And after reading the review I left almost a year ago I must apologize for its tone. I love this app and was very frustrated on spending so much time programming the motion only to hit another parameter wrong to have it reset to that particular parameter. 

Now it will prompt you to allow or disallow and my request has been answered! I'm sorry for leaving such a childish review but please understand how frustrating its been without this new update!

5 stars all the way!!!

### 5/5 — pure synth rhythm box

*2012-10-04, version 1.3.9*

since all sounds are synthesized directly from the device, the possibilities are endless with this app. the updates so far have been amazing, including song mode and export to wav, even saving and sharing of sounds and songs. well worth the cost. buy this app now!

### 5/5 — Fantastic app!

*2012-09-13, version 1.3.9*

bleep!BOX provides seemingly endless creative possibilities - I could compose for hours and never run out of ideas! It's a Pro app: it provides excellent sound quality, deep editing capabilities, a snappy and user friendly UI, as well as anything else you'd expect for professional music making. Excellent work!

### 5/5 — Really awesome! Love this app !! ( Nice Update)

*2012-05-03, version 1.3.8*

( updated review- Great Update Bleep Box !! Easier to use now , Thanks !! , still one of the most underated music apps , Love This Thing .!!)  Bleep box is one of the most underated  music making apps of all of'em you can get really sweat sounds with this and its pretty easy too figure , way bettdrthan a lot of apps for the same price or more , if your not great at programing and sequenceing like me id suggest u get this mass amounts of sounds that are really unique can be achieved and even the prerecordefnexamples sound great unlike most , go for the gold !! This rules! and no i dont work for'em , i just like to promote the cool apps as ive bought a lot that are crap, and this isnt one of'em ! Enjoy !   latest review after not using this for a while i just remebered how sweet it is !love this app ! blows away just about every drum app ive tried , probably everyone actually , and you can add sweet synth sounds on top of that! Its just really easy to come up with really original "sick" Sounds !  Unlike a lot of apps this one IS worth the money ! love it , hope the developers mske more cool apps thank!
