I have several of their apps and they are all great! ### 1/5 — Most misleading App!!!! *2017-11-15* The creators of this APP, describe the contents of this APP, As having a vast library with hundreds of loops and samples...!!!!!!!! I have LOOKED THRU this App And I cannot find any of what they advertised.!!!!!!!! The creator or creator should look up the meaning of loops and samples, they do differ. I would like my money back.!!!!!!!!! I would have never brought this App, I was tricked by the misleading description of the contents of this app. ### 5/5 — Great app *2017-09-24* Sound is great, very useful for any type of musicians. As a classical pro musician I use it for metronome; I only wish you woukd add some 6/8 (nothing between 66 and 80 and especially 80-100!) and 3/4 bars grooves... ### 5/5 — Exactly what I needed *2017-03-14* This is perfect for adding percussion sauce to GarageBand productions. Many thanks. ### 1/5 — Useless *2016-12-07* The loops are single instrument only. They cannot be layered, that is they are basically Unusable unless you export them into an external DAW application. 10 Ponds thrown in the toilet. ### 4/5 — You get what you pay *2016-06-19* The app it's functional and it have several samples (really basics) it can be used for simple looping and although it didn't have that many options or sounds I founded functional for simple projects. I'd love to see some improvement in the variety of samples because it lacks of rhythms diversity. Overall all limitations as I mentioned they would give you exactly what you've payed, no more no less lol. ### 5/5 — Super appli *2016-02-13, version 1.2.1* Très bonne application, de quoi s'amuser un moment. Personnellement je suis sur cajon et l accompagnement via les différents instruments est vraiment appréciable, relançant l'intérêt surtout en solo. Top! ### 5/5 — Excellent quality real recordings *2015-10-05* Thanks for the hi quality recordings. May I suggest you expand the library to oriental percussionis with darbuka. There is a big demand for beats like maqsum, baladi, malfuf and many others. ### 5/5 — Excellente appli *2015-10-04, version 1.2.1* Parfaite pour corser les créations sur GB, remplace avantageusement une boîte à rythmes, en plus crédible, le côté "live" en plus. Belle réalisation comme toujours chez cet éditeur, j'ai la total en rythme et c'est parfait. ### 4/5 — Tempo change *2015-07-25* We should be able to change the tempo to any speed we want please update and i will give it a 5***** ## Frequently asked questions about Percussion Loops HD ### What is Percussion Loops HD?
