### 5/5 — I keep coming back to this one

*2019-10-24, version 2.42*

And it makes me smile.

I’m a longtime 4Pockets fan, since the Windows Mobile apps, and will continue to be one

One slight bug, sometimes I press play and it doesn’t.  I know it’s an older app, and 4Pockets has produced a series of great apps since this one, but I am convinced Meteor is worth some bug-fix love...if not a full on update

The transport controls stop responding when the app is put into background then back to the foreground

The workaround is to reload the same project, but it would be very cool to not need the workaround.

### 2/5 — Don’t

*2019-04-01, version 2.39*

There’s literally no reason to buy this. It is a time capsule from the 90’s. The developer is currently producing some excellent AUv3 plug ins that are light years ahead of the technology in this DAW. If they were to bring this into the 21st Century based on their current batch of plug ins it would be a contender. But definitely not as it is. Look at MultiTrackStudio, Auria, or Cubasis.

### 1/5 — A powerful DAW with unique features

*2018-12-09, version 2.37*

Meteor does what all other IOS DAWs do, and some things that the others don’t.

The track markers are very useful for navigating around a project. Also, the fx implementation is very good.

### 4/5 — Nice!

*2018-08-27, version 2.31*

I own many DAWs on my Ipad, but this one I’ve settled on for my main DAW. I think the effects are Fantastic, and it's fairly easy to use. The appearance could be a bit better. It looks a little Cartoony.

### 1/5 — Waste of Money

*2017-06-22, version 2.22*

You can't import files into this app, nor can you "open in" another app, even though the option is clearly there.  When you tap the selected file, it doesn't give you a list of apps in which to open, it just closes.  The only thing you can do is plug in your iPad to your computer, and then download the file onto your desktop, then transfer it to the app you want, etc...takes away from the whole idea of having a portable DAW.  I'm might as well just use my computer,  it then I have a ton of other audio and video processing apps that I'd like to transfer my files. I'd give it five stars for all the other functions, but this is pretty big.  It's like saying I really like my new Porsche but if they could just give me a fourth wheel.  Otherwise, your Porsche sits in the garage and looks pretty.

### 1/5 — If I could give 0 stars, I would

*2017-05-18, version 2.22*

It's been 2 months, and still nothing. I emailed the devs, and they just told me to 'check my software and to make sure the Dropbox app is updated' which both are up to date. The devs haven't responded to me, since. I'm someone who invested money into this company, and they haven't helped me at all. Waste of time using this app. If errors occur, the devs won't help you, even though it's their job. Waste of money.

### 3/5 — MIDI doesn't function properly

*2017-05-10, version 2.22*

I really like the software. I have friends who use it and it works well for them. 
For some reason mine will not function properly. I even reinstalled it, but still it doesn't work properly.  It's when I try to use IAA mostly, iFretless apps and such, but it has been frustrating. I've been back and forth on this and can't overcome it. So, I'm stuck with GarageBand until I can resolve it.
Three stars for now, If it would start working I would rate it higher. 
Perhaps some better video tutorials that cover more issues?

### 1/5 — PLEASE FIX THIS!!!!

*2017-02-21, version 2.21*

This is (was) my favorite DAW and I recommended it to everyone. This is the DAW I learned on and would give it 10 stars if I could but the latest update makes it useless with the older versions of iPad’s. I have a hardware interface that uses the 30 pin connector on my 3rd generation iPad, I have purchased all the in app purchases and it works so well on the older versions on iPad’s. I can’t believe you took away the compatibility with these iPad’s. every penny I have spent on equipment for this DAW is useless and I guess I will be going over to Cubasis. I Loved this app so much but now I feel ripped off! If there is any way you can make this compatible with the older iPad’s again I will rewrite my review and continue recommending to all my musician friends. I know technology moves on but this software worked so well on the older versions of iPad’s I just don’t understand why you would cripple it for those pads. If Cubasis can support them I’m sure you can make this work with them again. I am begging you to please fix this flaw and make this the great app it used to be!

### 4/5 — Does Everything I need it to do

*2016-03-25, version 2.14*

I am a long time cubase desktop user. It was a breeze going from that to this. At does just about everything you would want to track record to do.

I use this with my rig pro duo with no problems. People are amazed at the sound quality of the recordings when I tell them my set up.

My only issue is that the dropbox integration seems not to work. If it did, this will be a five star review.

### 5/5 — Wonderful MIDI Recorder/Editor

*2015-09-05, version 2.14*

I have been looking for a solid, MIDI recorder that will record piano playing, including incremental pedal data. So many other MIDI records for iPad do not record incremental pedal data or even pedal data at all. This one does!

This app has a really nice interface. I love it!
