not very good… too many bugs, needs work!
the UI and the interaction is not very well done, also yesterday I tried to play a longer file, 21 min. and in the second half of the file it is glitching out with the high frequencies, all the other audio players and editors I have play the file just fine. IDK what is causing this but it makes it unusable, unfortunately, I wanted to like this app but it keeps disappointing.

Hunh? What just hap…
1) Stand alone app has no record capability, no icon to record input. No related facets in app section of iOS Settings.
2) App support sends me out to an unknown vendor with mega cookies and nothing related to the app nor a place to get help.
3. Online help in the app is outdated to solve the problem.
4. No recording for me today

Record button is gone
This is a weird audio editor, but I had decided to make it my main recording app for spoken recordings. It’s a bit difficult to use because it’s unconventional. However, it’s quite powerful with good features and appears to be worth learning.
But, I’m not sure what happened, but the record button seems to have disappeared and this is true on three different devices. I tried restarting my iPad, reinstalling, uninstalling followed by shutting down and reinstalling, but nothing worked. I tried looking to see if the microphone setting had been turned off, but the app doesn’t even show up in the list of apps that request it.
I went to the 4pockets website to message the dev and it’s down. Not sure what else to do except to leave this review to potentially get some help. If I can get this solved, I’ll rerate the app.

An issue with Neon while trying to play recorded files
I have always loved Neon from day 1. Today this is the first time this has happened to me. I was playing a song I had recorded and mastered from a folder. It wouldn't play, instead Neon opened and it said the song was sent to my 'Export' Folder. I wasn't using Neon and I'm certain Neon wasn't used anywhere in the recording process. I thought that was weird. Closed it out. Tried it on another song. Same thing. I tried it on a couple more. Same. So I uninstalled Neon. No problem. I haven't tried reinstalling it.

What about middle aged eyes?
I haven’t figured out a way to increase the font size. It’s rather difficult to read on an iPhone 12 Pro whether standalone or as an Auv3 . Please advise
Really like this!
I’ve been searching for a reliable audio editor for some time now, and as I already have several of Paul’s apps, I know they are top quality and extremely useful. Something that stood out to me was that audio could be saved as MP3 as an option, which seems to be a bit difficult to find on iOS apps.
Everything in this app is very easy to use (once you’ve read the manual, and had a few experimental tryouts). I’m impressed with the quality, forethought and skill that’s gone into this, and I’ll be using it a lot, probably with an assortment of Paul’s other apps included, because they all compliment each other in very useable ways. Great job!

$15 for what feels like a beta test
This app regularly crashes and has terrible UI, and is just straight up missing features that should be standard to any editor.
Almost perfect
I need an AUV3 app that allows for manually slicing up a sample then playing back the slices via midi keyboard. This app does all of that and much more. However, there is no option to have a slice play all the way through to the end of the sample once triggered. It will only play the short snippet of each slice between the slice markers.
To the dev Mr. Paul: Please consider adding this option! Thank you.

Unable to record audio when using standalone
I use this app with NanoStudio 2 and it’s a lifesaver. I’d love to be able to record audio standalone, but for some reason I am unable to. I’m not sure if it’s a bug or if I am doing something wrong. Other than that, this app is great.
Also to note, if you are using this with NanoStudio 2, make sure the export sample rate is 48k instead of 44k, otherwise, the audio won’t sync up.

Very good, but seems bit buggy at times…
I bought this so I can fix timing errors in my loopy pro doughnuts. Very full featured app, does so much. However I find the interface can be fiddly or inconsistent just to do simple operations like zooming, cutting out a section, inserting silence.
Sometimes features just don’t work at all, until i restart the app. I try to share a loopy pro doughnut and ask it to open neon, but neon does not open.
Think I will repurchase auditor as it is a breeze to quantise audio and everything works 100% of the time. I don’t need a clip launcher or recorder if I’m using AUM, as I have loopy pro and koala. Neon is fantastically featured and very powerful. One could do mastering with it, but I tend to do that with desktop anyway. I just find Zeon fiddly and inconsistent to use for my purposes.

Thaïs plugin is 5+5 stars
Good product tanks
Fantastic Editor!
I agree that Neon keeps getting better, and it’s approaching the point of being an indispensable iOS tool for processing audio. Well done!
Awesome audio editor
It’s packed full of features which I appreciate lots! But if I had to provide 1 constructive criticism it would be that the gui is often unintuitive with multiple ways to do some things and buttons in unexpected places (compared to other desktop equivalent experiences). I expect some of this, particularly the file management quirks are due to limitations of iOS though. Even Adobe would be proud! Get this app if you need a capable wave editor on iPad.

The ONLY ONE!
Been doing audio a long time - credited in 30+ game titles. AFAIK, this is the only editor on any platform that offers the ability to edit on a bars and beats timeline/grid with warping to boot! Neon is my new go-to editor, ‘nuff said.
Not really a good app
It’s really not intuitive. For me anyway. Also does not register gestures consistently, making zooming and placing markers extremely cumbersome. It also gives weird errors that I don’t understand and doesn’t let me move forward with certain operations. The error messages are in broken English so they’re not helpful. I use a DAW on a desktop regularly so I’m not really sure what I could be doing wrong.

Super Powerful
Best audio editor for iPad and iPhone. More features than you can learn in a day.
Convenient & powerful
One of the must haves in my audio toolbox. While it’s pretty easy to use, this is a deceptively simple tool, as it’s also really powerful, having features usually available in much more expensive apps.
Can’t recommend it highly enough! Awesome app!

A one stop shop for sample making/ editing
Neon is the app people have been waiting for, surpassing rivals Auditor and Twisted Wave. great functionality, getting more useful with each iteration. Record from FX slot in AUM (or any DAW that has AU3 compatibility) and/ or use it in the top slot as a clip launcher! In built FX, time stretching and other features. It even allows metadata editing, which is so useful for those involved in digital distribution of music. Bravo.

Great app!
Really useful audio editor and a whole lot more. The “Particle Engine” feature is great for creating interesting new sounds. Very happy with purchase.
Indispensable tool for working with audio in AUM
Fast becoming an invaluable too for working with audio in AUM. Diverse range of features. Use it as a sample library, editor, looper and slicer with drag and drop to other apps (even at the slice level).
Now with particle engine it is a granular instrument with even greater capability for making new samples, sounds and loops where you can add/bake in effects. Great work!
