Greattt job!
Love the app!
Free trial only with valid payment info
I wanted to give this a try, but the free trial turns into a subscription that I’m not sure whether or not I want. If I did not want it then I would have to remember to come in and cancel the subscription.
One time Purchase, and now can’t use in GarageBand forcing subscription.
The app no longer works in or beatmaker3 and has a lot of issues when used as a standalone. For example you have to turn the volume knob up every time you switch presets. I have contacted the developers and they have not replied. Fix this issue and I will be willing to give the app the 5 stars it deserves.

Purchased as one time purchase, now it’s a subscription. Don’t support this developer
I purchased this app years ago as a one time purchase from AudioKit. It’s now owned by a new dev & completely useless because they decided to lock the app’s features unless you pay a subscription. This has ruined years of music projects. This is unfair, immoral, and should be considered criminal. I will not support AudioKit nor Audiobus ever again. Do not support this dev, resist against subscriptions!
EDIT in response to dev: unless your “help” is giving back access to the sounds you swindled, no thanks. Goodbye and good riddance.

Ruined years of music projects
I purchased this app years ago, now it’s completely broken. Do not support this dev.

When I bought this app it was owned by a different developer. Since it sold out it has gone downhill.
Now with an update the app I already paid for has removed features and essentially is useless without paying a subscription.
This is shady and seems like it should be illegal!
I hope they get kicked off the App Store

Trash now
Hope your subscription model fails you.
Needed for all things BROWN
In terms of simplicity for finding a clipped, over-distorted 808 bass tone for your single tracked kick, there is nothing as conveniently usable. Putting it on its own track in MPC PRO2 or in AUM makes it do wonders.
I can’t think of any down sides to it except for the common difficulty in monitoring the frequency and sustain across different devices. Speakers and amplifiers have different responses to these bass tones so it’s not going to give you the kind of frequency response from one to the next, which is just a thing with hard wet brown 808 bass.

Pulled the rug
I downloaded this app when it first came out. Have been using it and loving lots by the dev since…. Then all of a sudden it’s a weekly subscription?.. what a shame. If I had to buy it (thought I already did) I’d rather pay a one time price. This app is fantastic btw.
👎used to be great
Until it went subscription. Thanks Stu Pedassez at Audiokit
infinitely loads
never loads anything
Tracking
Deinstalliert wegen Datensammlung! Nogo! Lieder kann man sein Geld nicht nachträglich zurück verlangen. Bei einem Developer wechsel sollte dies möglich sein, dann würden sie wahrscheinlich mit mehr Vorsicht walten…
used to be "no data collected"
apps change ownership policies updated, you should checking out that terms of service
Pulling the rug
The app was great, so I purchased the one-time purchase, in oder to unlock the full functionality of the app. That was the agreement when I bought this software instrument. I even recall the description boasting this agreement "purchase once and own forever!" or something along those lines.
I don't take issue with the subscription agreement model for using software.
However.
I do see it as an issue when a software application is marketed as a one-time purchase, and I choose to purchase it, only then to have the developer switch the very same app that was sold as a one time purchase over to a subscription model, and revoke the functionality that was marketed as a one time purchase unless I now also purchase the subscription.
The developer could have made a duplicate application to this one, and marketed and distributed it under a subscription-model agreement, and left this app for legacy users of the old purchase agreement.
It does not seem right to double-dip after selling a the functionality of a piece of software as a one-time purchase.
The description for the application under the one-time purchase agreement did not say "on sale, only $x.xx this weekend only, to own forever!"
"...or until the developer decides that you no longer own the functionality that you purchased under the one-time purchase model. Then you either have to subscribe to continue using the app's functionality, or you're just out of luck!"
The reason I am writing this review isn't solely because the developer switched the distribution model on an existing application being marketed a certain way.
They are responding to the reviewers that are pointing this out with a message to contact them for assistance, portraying the image on these reviews that they are interested in "assisting" with the issue that they created by switching the payment model of the app and revoking the functionality that many people already purchased.
However, upon contacting the developer for assistance with this issue, (that they are replying to under reviews noting it, asking for reviewers to reach out) they simply respond that they indeed have locked you out of the application's full functionality unless you now sign up for the subscription. So they aren't doing anything for legacy users that purchased the app under the one time purchase agreement, like the review-responses suggest.
Simply confirming the switch and double-dip, and confirming that previous purchasers are indeed out of luck unless they begin paying for the subscription.
I don't support this, and have not stated anything other than what happened in my experience with an application that I have now deleted, and will not consider other offerings from this developer as a result of this experience.

what the actual heck just happened
Ok. The app is fine. 100+ sounds, used to be made by AudioKit, a few leads mixed in, the whole deal. Look, I get the point of the subscription. The app is free, but in order to have it in full, you need to buy it. Fair rule. The problem is when you make most of the sounds free, and then make all but the default being paid for. Maybe the most of the sounds free thing was a bug. Look, I’m fine with a subscription, but at least make a few more sounds free. Dynamic articulation isn’t the best either. At least we have modulation. Even then, I like what you did with the other older apps and subscriptions. Put some sounds in the default bank, make you pay for the other banks. You should’ve incorporated this in Bass 808. Cause now, it isn’t that amazing. Default GarageBand sounds might even be better, and they have trash dynamic articulation. Look, I’m just saying, MAKE SOME MORE SOUNDS FREE. I can’t rate it anything above what I’m rating it ONLY because of this.
With that being said, this is a 2-star app.
Edit:And now it’s not showing on my Audio Unit Extensions. Maybe the guy who said the Retro Piano/Bass 808 thing was true. It’s even worse than ever.

It’s gone subscription on us.
Neuer App Besitzer führt Abo Modell ein
Ob das aufgehen wird? Find ich jedenfalls einen schlechten Zug. Gibt genug Synths die kostenlos sind wie zB Nanostudio, King FM. Ein Spenden Button hätte es auch getan. Besser gleich in ein Synth investieren, dieser nach dem Kauf nicht noch einmal etwas kostet. Gibt genug klasse Synths hier im Store die mehr können und etliche Sounds mehr auf dem Kasten haben.
Nach der Übernahme heißt es für mich jedenfalls Bye & Deinstall.

Problem solver achievement unlocked
I left a comment when I was having issues I think it’s only right that I leave one when you guys do a great job. Less than 2 weeks after having issues it was fixed and I’m able to continue my work flow. All of the apps you guys make are really good but this is by far my fav. I use it on 98% of my beats and it just makes it easier to get the exact sound I’m looking for. Great job and keep up the good work
