Great app but need some features urgently!
Update: Thank you for your kind response. I didn’t realise that Hokusai is a different kind of editor. I will try Ferrite and share my thoughts there.

I purchased the Pro Pack hoping to use Hokusai as a mobile alternative to Adobe Audition for editing audio on the go. I've enjoyed using the app, but there are two limitations that have made it difficult for me to fully incorporate it into my workflow:
1. Audio clips cannot be freely dragged and repositioned on the timeline. The only workaround I've found is adding silence to create spacing, which is cumbersome and time-consuming.
2. It’s missing volume envelopes. For working on the go, I don’t care for advanced automation features. But volume envelopes is indispensable.
I would be very grateful if you could consider adding these features in a future update. Since I've already invested in the Pro Pack, I'd love to make Hokusai a bigger part of my audio-editing workflow.
Thank you.

Response from developer
Hello! It sounds like you’re looking for a very different kind of audio editor to Hokusai. Fortunately, we make one of those too! It’s called Ferrite Recording Studio, it supports moving clips around on a timeline and volume automation envelopes and many other features, and you can find it in the App Store. There’s also a comparison guide on our website, to help figure out which of Hokusai and Ferrite is right for you. Hope that helps!
bad interface
too many steps to start a recording. you need to make it
easy to immediately record audio and stop
without having so many prompts to click

Great software!
Needed to use an alternative for remote location podcast construction and editing and I have now been using this for nearly 8 years. Easy to use and does what it needs to with being complex. I keep checking for alternatives and keep on coming back to this software.
Furchtbar
Die App ist so ziemlich das Furchtbarste was ich in vielen Jahren als UX gesehen habe. Vollständig unbedienbar, selbst einfachste Dinge konnte man nicht verstehen. Keinerlei intuitive Oberfläche.
Best Phone Audio Editor!!!!
Best audio app ever! I’ve used since 2012 and have been using it to mix music for my dance studio since, I’ll never use another app! It gets better with every update
