You want punch and kick, get this!

This is one of my go-to apps for making drums, percussions, bass, synths sound like thunder and lightning. It’s got the right combination of features to make your music jump out your mix! Highly recommended!!!

Infinite stars!

I just don’t understand how did people miss o this gold mine of an app.
Excluding the transient shaper, the other functionality of this one is simply beyond my comprehension.

The thing that amazes me the most is how Paul keeps his apps compact yet flexible.
Someday, someday sensei Paul would stop creating these gems of apps, I just can’t accept it, no I can’t.

Now I do understand why he chose 4pockets, because, each and every music production tools necessary would inside be in the jeans of your pockets mate!

Sensei, I want you to outlive me, keep contributing,keep working hard, keep loving iOS!

Very cool app!

This is a great app for taking one or two drum sequences and manipulating them into many similar, but also different beats. Great take on transient detection and manipulation!
