MIDI Tape Recorder User Reviews

Auf dem iPad gut, aber…..

Auf dem iPad sehr gutes Tool. Aber auf dem Mac läuft der MIDI Tape Recorder nicht. Jedenfalls nicht bei mir unter Cubase und auch nicht in Gig Performer.

Wow

This app is nuts! Love it.

Simply Brilliant

I have some really great midi recorders / editors on my device and I love them but I wanted a really simple way to just record midi exactly how it’s played and then export it. It may seem a daft workflow as the exported file often ends up being imported in to a app that can record midi and do everything this app can do (and more) but the simplicity of this app that just records midi streams is just what I was looking for.
Midi has also been adopted by other professions like lighting and video control and can see this being very useful in environments where midi isn’t just triggering instruments.

Don’t Buy!

This is the only app I’ve ever been refused a refund on. Even after an appeal. So unless you are prepared to keep this app if it disappoints you (as it did me) don’t buy! Personally I lost some good work on this app by accidentally hitting the destructive undo. There is no redo. That alone made me unwilling to ever use it again. An inexcusable oversight in design. The way markers are adjusted on long projects is also unnecessarily fiddly. And there is no written documentation for the product, only one YouTube video which doesn’t demonstrate some of the features claimed in the app description.

Takes a little fiddling around, but…

…a utility like this is so obviously useful for almost any musician who uses midi-enabled stuff that it worth it.

Would love to see a built-in editor.

Uncomfortable

The cropping is useless. No fast workflow for setting start and end of the loop

Wow. Best MIDI dev in the world? And this is open source. So clean, elegant. I'm learning just from studying the source code. You go!

Expresss;)sesh

All the stars for this one!

Excellent

Works flawlessly with AUM on the iPad! I wonder if this is the answer to recording midi using Mainstage on the Mac. Mainstage only records audio if you want to record a performance. This may work if you want to record midi for archival reasons inside of Mainstage.

Brilliant and essential

A staple of my toolset for recording MIDI on iOS. I’ve been using it for years and it has never let me down, and in my experience is the most faithful and reliable method of recording MIDI. Excellent support from the developer too.

Excellent little midi recorder

Does exactly what it promises and is super handy. No problems in AUM or Drambo. Negative reviewers should read the documentation and perhaps study up a bit more on how to work with MIDI and AUv3 plugins in their preferred host app.

Also, if you get really bizarre recordings that sound like some invisible, recently used IAA midi source app hasn’t closed properly - restart your device. 🙃

BEST EVER Ergonomic real time midi Recorder

With AUM you NEED this sequencer universal in and out thru AUM visual touch Matrix Cannot DREAM better REAL sequencer let you record midi real time synchro to audio recorded LATER

it is so powerful you can record 16 midi channels AT ONCE into ONE single track without the need to create travk per channel (ableton!) neither hassle to ADD an AUDIO track per channel (Cubase)
Midi (including CC ) can replay without latency nor trigger bugs (fantom)
AUM wizzard matrix OR audio channels will route or filter freely which sound/channels are needed/transposed/layered or split …

reason YOU can ADD any combi layersounds to previous audio waves.It's MOST easy creative keyboard player Audio composer's Tool:ANY keyboard with ridiculous midi sequencer or DAW NEEDS it . so you CAN later export midi files if needed to edit it (piano roll) then bring it back
the GENIUS programmer should SELL it What a pity not to support his talent that AUM completes to HEAVEN....

Ummmm

Hey Devs re, what do you think of maybe letting people know how to use this and what programs would be best used with this? Because I don’t believe any of the reviews… they don’t say a thing about any DAWs and I’m pretty sure that you guys wrote those reviews.

Indispensable

Sert à tous

Zero

Zero function on Garage Bang. No Sound.

I am confused.

I don’t know how to use it. I been trying to find out how to use it but can’t. And also I am trying to use it on garageband.

Brilliant idea, difficult to use without a manual

At first I was lost. There is no recorder here, it seems to be an extra to things I do not understand. It does record on iphone garageband but is tricky. I usea Yamaha P-115 piano with a special musical cable that looks like an old style USB Printer one end and new iPhone other end.

1. Install. 2. Power off wait power on. 3. Open Garage band. 4. Create Song; Tracks; External; Audio Unit Extensions; click on Midi T...order; 5.
Click on the Top right volume knob.

6. Use common sense to record freestyle piano to a green midi track.

7. + new track eg. KEYBOARD, more sounds, subtle piano

8. move the green midi track to the piano lane and play. Hopefully no quantise, no volume change, all as you played

9. How to get this midi file out of garageband? Export project gives an empty file. Export phone ring creates a midi but stuck in your phone... ???

My first app review ever…

This app is so outstanding and excellent and all the good things that the other reviewers have already mentioned. Thank you for making this app, and should you decide to start charging for it you won’t get any complaints from me. BUT there is just one thing that doesn’t seem to be working correctly for me, and that’s the midi import function. Pressing the import MIDI file button shows me a list of “Locations”, fine. I wish to import a MIDI file from AudioShare, so I press on that icon and nothing happens. I presume correct behavior would then show me a column with all the AudioShare folders displayed. Is that correct? Similarly nothing also happens when I press any of the other “Locations” shown. Other than this one bug, this app is quite a dream come true.
