### 1/5 — What & where

*2025-08-03*

I’m lost… don’t know how to import MIDI files

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-03-20*

There doesn’t seem to be a way to add files to the app. Maybe include some instructions?

### 1/5 — Won’t work

*2020-03-05*

I have been unable to import more than one file into the player. Useless unless I can figure out how it’s supposed to work

### 1/5 — Broken

*2020-02-08*

It says select a file but there is non appearing deleting app as soon as possible DO NOT DOWNLOAD

### 1/5 — No good

*2020-02-03, version 1.2*

Followed the instructions to load wav files. Programme found the files but would not load, and then froze on a loading screen. Does not work.

### 1/5 — Fail

*2019-10-05*

Had high hopes for this app, after following the instructions to load my wav tracks via iTunes nothing showed up in the app even after multiple attempts with no luck Really disappointing

### 3/5 — It's getting there. Great app but lacks a few key features.

*2017-05-20*

I was so exited about this app. It pretty much has all the features I want that other apps do not have, but... it only limits you to 5 tracks!!! Makes it useless to me unfortunately. It also needs to allow test play on the phone speaker for when you want to work on your songs and don't have your headphones with you. Setlist management is another key feature that it's very needed and seems to be missing. It also seems that you can only load and manage up to 20 songs. User interface is intuitive enough but the design could be greatly improved, and the advertising... I understand devs need to monetize but a premium ad-free version would be very worth it for those who can work with 5 tracks.

The pros: The app that I'm currently using (Prime from Loopcommunity) makes you upload your stems to their site before you can download them to the app itself which is a hassle, and I know most of the big players do it like this because they sell backing tracks and want to sync your account to the app. This app actually allows you upload your stems directly from your computer which is faster, convenient and ideal for us who produce our own tracks. It also lets you have full control on how to pan all your tacks which is great considering that Prime only pans 2 (the click and cues) to the left. Another feature I like is that the interface actually uses the name of your file/steam... Prime forces you to use from a list of their generic names like "Guitar1" "Guitar2" etc.

Again, it's going on the right track, but it's not there yet.

### 1/5 — Can't get it to load any tracks

*2017-04-28, version 1.0*

Tried WAV files of various sorts, and the App lists them, but will not actually load any.
Oh well - at least it was free.
