I just got a bunch of Hue lights and have had fun recording lightshows to go with my music. The integration with Apple Music is smooth and the app is easy to use! ### 5/5 — Best light shows *2022-03-19* A.+++ ### 5/5 — Deckt Grundbedürfnisse erwachsener Kinder *2021-12-12* Ich nutze die App nicht oft aber schon seit Jahren. Songs einen festen Lichtablauf zu geben ist das Smart-Home Profilevel. Allerdings habe ich schon dermaßen viel Zeit verplempert weil bei der unnötig aufwendigen Bedienung oft ein oder zwei oder drei Fehler passieren und man den kompletten Titel nochmal von neuem machen muss. Ich weiß auch nicht wieso man bei den "Wellen" "Feuerwerk" und diese Abläufe bei einem Farbwechsel, erst eine andere Farbe und dann nochmal einen der Abläufe wählen muss. Etwas umständlich. Und eine pro App ohne die Umstände würde sich der ein oder andere sicher richtig was kosten lassen. Mann bedenke Wir sind Freaks die für ne E27 LED Lampe knapp 50€pro Stück bezahlt haben. ### 5/5 — Love it *2021-05-01, version 2.3.5* Hope it keeps getting developed ### 1/5 — Crashes *2021-04-13* Crashes when you try to search a song on Apple Music. ### 3/5 — Im Ansatz gut, aber noch viel Potential nach oben! *2020-05-17* Ich suche schon seit Längerem nach einer solchen App, mit der man eine Lichtshow zu einem bestimmten Track aufnehmen kann. Grundlegend ist die App also gut, jedoch fehlt mir die Möglichkeit einzelne Lampen gezielt auszuwählen. Auch die Auswahl an Effekten ist noch ausbaufähig. Ich finde es gut, dass man die gespeicherten Sets mit der Community teilen kann. Bleibt abzuwarten, wie sich die App entwickelt. Ich könnte mir vorstellen, dass man irgendwann auch Lichtprogrammierungen zu einem kompletten Film erstellen, teilen und laden kann. ### 4/5 — Make it faster *2020-01-23, version 2.2* Love the idea. I’m a more EDM listener. Can I suggest even faster strobe lights? Or the option to choose which lights to control specifically ### 4/5 — All good *2019-10-04, version 2.1* Yeah not bad at all because so far haven’t had to pay anything so yeah happy ### 5/5 — Yes *2019-02-12* Great app but I wish share music and lights for other users had more ### 5/5 — Amazing!!!! *2019-02-04* The available music show library is limited for right now but as more and more people use the app it keeps growing and soon this will be the next big thing! ## Frequently asked questions about Light DJ Studio Recordings ### What does Light DJ Studio Recordings do?
