Great software!
I purchased Samurai Mode.
After reinstalling Koala Sampler, I tapped “Get Samurai” in Settings, but an error message appeared, and I was unable to restore my purchase.
Please fix this issue as soon as possible.

Good sampler, missing some mid mapping
Very good App to use in conjunction with MPK mini, just is missing midi map for Deckard turntable
Incredible creative production tool.
The new automation update is icing on the cake. Pro level stuff.

Love this jawn, as a sample producer mainly using an mpc and sp404 for what I do, this hits the spot for sure and I love how versatile it is. There’s not much limitation outside of what you can create yourself…
AUv3 transport sync needs improvement
Great sampler, but AUv3 transport sync needs improvement.
I’m using DM10 4.6.1 as an AUv3 inside Koala 2.0.12. DM10 follows Koala’s tempo correctly, but its sequencer does not reset to the beginning when Koala is stopped and restarted. Each time I press Play, DM10 starts from a different step. The shorter the time between Stop and Play, the closer the starting position is.
I tested the same DM10 AUv3 in Cubasis and it works correctly, so this appears to be a Koala host transport-sync issue.
Please add/fix proper AUv3 transport position and Start/Stop synchronization so AUv3 sequencers reliably start from the correct position when Koala starts playback.

Mit Abstand der beste
Ich habe mir diesen Sampler aus Spaß heruntergeladen. Seitdem verkaufe ich stetig meine komplette Hardware. So einen super Workflow hatte ich schon lange nicht mehr. Habe es auf dem iPad sowie auf dem Telefon einfach nur Mega besser geht nicht. Ich wünsch mir jetzt noch ein paar Software Synthesizer dann wäre es absolut perfekt. Danke dafür weitermachen.

v2.0 Very Good
User from v1.0 with samurai.
Koala is getting mature and solid.
Le problème récurrent de surchauffe et de surconsommation semble avoir été enfin réglé 👍🏻🙏🏻
L’arrivée des AUV3 et toutes les nouveautés montent l’expérience un bon cran au dessus.
Workflow et lisibilité, c’est le meilleur pocket sampler et de loin.
I still miss :
- automation per pads or bus (MAJOR request, a couple of assignable knobs as 404 style will do the job) not only on the master performance FX
- a transport bar in the sample section on iPhone (play stop at least)
- a button on busses and master to route, enable or disable the send to performance FX
- a song mode (an old fashioned playlist of sequences will be find to simply organize sequences)
Keep going my friends,
Koala sampler rocks 🙏🏻 …
55 years old timer, I used maaaany samplers in my life.
Koala is a dream sampler in the palm of your hand.

Response from developer
Koala sets the “0dB” point of its samples at -6dB to enable enough headroom for multiple samples - if it was louder you would quickly run into distortion - for comparison ableton’s is at -12dB - pls feel free to get in touch at koalasampler.com/contact to discuss further.
Probably my single favorite app of any kind, all time.
There are enough other detailed praises here and elsewhere for anyone to realize that this is a special app: for me, it returned some of the spontaneity and all of the fun that had been personally missing from iOS music production.
And in the face of a flood of absolutely awful “vibe coded” new apps by unknowns that are charging 4-8x what the app market had become accustomed to (and which I absolutely will not buy knowingly,) by contrast Koala keeps rolling out more new features and fun.
Thank you Koala Sampler. You’ve actually made the world a little better.

best ios sampler!!!
very intuitive, easy to use and just fun. A basic knowledge of sampling, ipad apps and just working with audio should be enough to get going. so much help online, a great community and tutorials if don’t have knowledge it would also be a great learning tool if you need to invest in hardware samplers or midi control sets for the ipad.

Превосходно
Круто! Сделайте midi auv3 чтобы arp играл по midi в Daw. Будет вообще бомба.
Wonderful Wonderful Wonderful
This is the best app ever. Thank you everyone involved in making this.
The best there is!
Proof that by being dedicated to learning a craft and providing resources and supporting a community that you can become the best in the game. No other music creation app on iphone even comes close, especially for the price. A program so good that Roland and Ableton have happily thrown their weight behind it with official cross-platform compatibility and control. Far and away the most powerful mobile DAW around. It rocks!
I will support elf audio in everything they do the same way they've supported a new generation of producers for years. It's a level of trust not easily gained but one they've proved time and time again that they're worthy of it. If anyone deserves it it's them. Thank you!!!

“Now Optimized For Older Phones”
In a day and age where many developers outright refuse to support older devices arbitrarily Koala Sampler not only keeps releasing updates to older devices but optimizing for them as well, after an already massively feature packed base app with outstanding add-ons for what is still an incredibly low overall total price that level of customer support can’t be given anything but five stars, bravo Koala, bravo.

Top tier music production app
This app is jam packed whit the best tools to create music. Found some to sample?? Open koala.. load video or audio in a pad and go crazy.
The real ting
Make beats in the shower, while driving, waiting in a waiting room, while your partner watches their shows on the couch, while cooking and doing the dishes…
add a bitcrusher level thingy like how you can do that with the filter
please add a bitcrusher level thingy like how you can do that with the filter
Awesome
Best app i ever downloaded
Pretty good
Really useful for music. Im a little disappointed that velocity doesn’t work in piano roll but its whatever tho
v2.0 Very Good, BUT !!!
User from v1.0
Koala is getting mature and solid.
WARNING : I notice the calibration threshold of the 0.0dB is wrong all over the app. It is under the real 0.0dB and sounds weaker compared to any other app or DAW. Export a sequence at 0.0dB dry without any effect and compare the level in any other software in a dry situation.
GOOD :

Phenomenal Music App
When I bought Koala I actually had no idea what it really did, but it kept coming up as a great music app, so I just got it to learn and see what it could do. From there it became my most used music app on my iPad. It does so much. It samples, it sequences, it loads AUV3, it can be loaded as an AUV3, it has effects that can be used in other apps via AUM, it works as a midi controller for other apps. I love it. Also, the developer is responsive and helpful. I recommend adding the samurai edition.
