### 2/5 — I’ve had this app since it came out and it’s always worked pretty well for me, but now I’ve lost all

*2024-12-17*

I’ve had this app since it came out but now I have no accessibility using voiceover. Bummed because I have a bunch of songs in here. Please fix.

### 4/5 — Great App, not worth the $$$ though

*2022-05-03*

Crashes the majority of the time it’s used, making it very difficult to import/export.

If it had a file conversion, might not crash. The files are too big and take up a lot of data.

### 2/5 — Very Frustrating, as it freezes!

*2021-01-03*

I was using the free version and every time I try to merge the tracks, it freezes and does not mix and send anywhere! I tried to record 5 times and merge, but with no success! I am trying now the pro version. If this does not work, I will let the developers know!

### 2/5 — Poor sound on 2nd track

*2020-05-16*

Uploaded backing track from own library, good sound but 2nd track hardly any sound, not sure if I’m just not ‘getting it’!

### 2/5 — no bluetooth

*2020-01-23*

i bought this, there are no I/O options. cant monitor thru wireless headphones

### 3/5 — Good start

*2019-07-05*

I like the simple design for getting rhythm and lead ideas down for guitar, but there are two issues that are no good:

Sometimes it lags, so it’s not recording in sync with the other tracks, which basically defeats the entire purpose of the app.

Would like it 10x better if you could pan the tracks left and right.

### 2/5 — I need help!

*2019-03-01, version 2.1.6*

Is there a costumer service number for this app? Question number one, how can I record for full length song ? I turned loop off , but at track 4# I wanted to use for vamp of song, but it wouldn’t play that long. Question two, once I compress , and merge tracks how can I email, text etc? Is there a way the app can adjust bmp on its own, by just playing music?Lastly, how do you get out of app without having to turn phone off?  My contact is 2142830792, I paid to get pro thinking it would be more self explanatory, but it isn’t.

### 3/5 — Layout

*2019-01-03*

I find it irritating when the description omits to mention if landscape or portrait. Portrait is no good to me .  Hb

### 2/5 — Metronome It’s completely irregular

*2018-11-17*

The metronome is comically uneven… 
Are you kidding me… ?

### 3/5 — OK Voice Memos replacement

*2018-10-06*

As Apple continues to make Voice Memos less useful by making it more confusing to use and harder to sync, this simple app makes a decent replacement.

Couple of issues for me:
Metronome noticeably stumbles. Also, a strobing spot would be better as seeing the arm graphic from even a short distance or at an angle isn’t easy.
App does not tag exported audio with artist, year, etc. Would be useful for smart playlists in iTunes or file searches.

### 3/5 — Does what it says on the tin...

*2018-08-11*

But when it’s crucial to rely on a click track to sync your multiple recordings then finding out it’s twitchy really let’s the side down...

### 4/5 — Good but could be better

*2018-02-10*

Good app and the best I can find but the only bad thing is the more tracks you merge, the Poorer the quality gets. (Doesn’t sound nice with drums)

### 3/5 — Input Gain?

*2017-08-09*

Did this disappear in current version?

### 2/5 — Both are the same

*2017-05-27*

Buy the pro & you get the same app as the free version, not nice to give the same app when paying

### 1/5 — Completely pointless

*2016-11-25*

I've just payed for this app and it doesn't work at all !!! I would like a refund please.......
I've had enough of paying for apps that don't work!!! Refund refund

### 1/5 — Scam

*2016-07-20, version 2.0.5*

Horrible horrible horrible , import feature doesn't work. Won't let you bring music files from other places like it used to , feature was removed. Total scam want my money back. Pro version IS THE SAME EXACT THING! Scam artist . Need refund please and thank you

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Don't bother

*2022-01-12*

Doesn't record in time

### 1/5 — I bought pro for 1 reason....

*2021-02-25*

I upgraded to pro for 1 reason, to merge the tracks and export them. So I try to merge the tracks and it gets to 100% then freezes. Every time. You guys need to fix this, should be an easy fix. 

If you plan on merging tracks and exporting them, don’t use this app.

### 1/5 — Can’t import own beats.

*2020-07-28*

This is either a rip off or an app that seems simple but is complicated to operate. How do you import my own beat?!

### 1/5 — Give me my 99p back

*2020-02-26*

I want my £0.99 back!! Very bad latency, not ideal for a multi track at all! And it doesn’t save tour tracks properly! Waist of a £1 that could go towards a double cheese burger instead! ...

### 1/5 — Can’t get it to work

*2018-06-18*

This program does not work correctly.  I am not a professional musician, but I cannot understand it.

### 1/5 — DON'T BUY - Tracks won't sync, useless

*2017-12-11*

I'm a professional drummer and record for a living, this isn't an input thing... The tracks are often a 16th note off. And the metronome doesn't keep anything close to time -- it's useless. I love the app idea and the free version used to work, so I thought "maybe pro will actually sync up" and purchased. NOPE. Unfortunately, I have to recommend against this one. Without tracks syncing, a MULTI TRACK recorder is a useless.

### 1/5 — ほとんど使えない

*2017-07-11*

フリーバージョンで課金してアップデートしたら、今までirigで問題無く使えてたのに、タイムラグが出だして使い物にならなくなりました。
バージョンアップでproになるのかと思ったら別物で結局新たに購入になってしまいました。
しかし何も変わらずどういうわけか、メトロノームのみ聞いてマルチで録音しても、考えられないほどずれます。
録音後データをずらせるのならまだ使えますが、求めているのは、細かいエディットではなく、手軽なマルチレコーダーなので、それでは本末転倒です。
さらにメトロノーム自体正確ではなく、合わせて演奏するとリズム乱れます。

### 1/5 — Time lag issues. Effectively unusable.

*2017-04-10*

This app doesn't compensate for time lag when monitoring. Listening to one track through headphones while laying down another track results in tracks that are slightly out of sync. The app's entire purpose as a multi-track recorder is therefore unsuccessful. Don't waste your money.

**Developer response:** Hello, sorry the track sync issues, please update to 2.1.2 all these bugs have been fixed. Feel free to email feedback@mtsr-app.com for any questions. Thanks for your support!

### 1/5 — Update please!

*2017-04-09, version 2.1.0*

Tracks are STILL out of sync!!!

### 1/5 — This is not a joke I want my money back…

*2016-12-28*

I don't know what MTSR stands for but the only pro thing that you've shown me is how you (this company) must be pros at stealing peoples money with an app that is truly unusable at best... I am most serious in the statement that this is by far the most worthless piece of garbage I've ever spent money on & I want my money back, pretty please with lack of recording on top... For any of you out there who are considering purchasing this app you may as well take that five dollar bill & give it to your worst enemy because it'll bring you far less frustration than purchasing this app ever will… I wish there was a negative star rating because I'd give you a galaxy of them… PS I want my money back…

**Developer response:** Hello, sorry the track sync issues, please update to 2.1.2 all these bugs have been fixed. Feel free to email feedback@mtsr-app.com for any questions. Thanks for your support!

### 5/5 — Excellent app, needs to be more accessible

*2019-01-25*

This is an excellent app. However, it needs to be more accessible. VoiceOver support needs to be added, and it could be nice to add the magic tap for playback of all tracks. The magic tap is the 2 finger dubble tap. It’s used to play/pause audio, and other actions. Overall, not bad.

### 5/5 — Nice app

*2018-01-27*

It’s easy to use. Allows me to import an mp3, play it back on headphones, add a vocal and merge the 2 tracks flawlessly. Good quality.

### 5/5 — Very Good

*2016-09-18*

Simple Proffessional Good Job

### 5/5 — Does not work- Update, it does now.

*2016-08-08*

I've paid for this app. It does not record anything. What's going on people? Help please

Upon adjusting the gain input, the app works well. Good customer service.

*2016-03-18*

*2015-11-09, version 2.0.3*

This app is very easy to use and makes capturing ideas very neat and easy

### 5/5 — Play Background on SoundCloud

*2015-09-23, version 2.0.3*

I would like to play music on background while SoundCloud is open. It would be excellent!

### 5/5 — Perfect for Me!
