User reviews

Simple and useful

I like using this to grab Sound’s quickly and throw it into a sampler. too many people whining about stupid things in the reviews. This is not supposed to be another DAW. It does its job just fine for me.

Boo

This app is so crippled where do I begin?OK, you get two tracks lol wow so I’m fine with that because I have other real DAWs but I thought I would try it with my audio box just because I’m not much of a vocalist and most of my music is electronic made by hardware, some software, and a heck of a lot of apps. So I’m thinking maybe I should upgrade to 32 tracks until I realized that you can’t do anything with the tracks you’ve recorded. I can’t send them to audio share. I can’t audio copy. I can’t copy from this App and paste into another app. Unless I decide to use their “wireless“ studio then I’m basically stuck with tracks that I don’t really have any thing to do with because it’s the most basic track recorder I’ve ever used in my life for the iPad. I mean memos gives you more options. So no I am not going to spend $10 on 32 tracks that I will be able to do nothing with except crop and then get more pre sound stuff on my computers to hopefully be able to do something with what I’ve recorded whether it be vocals or instruments. I have other personas boxes for that. This one was meant for portability and iPad only.

I am not new to iOS audio. I’ve beta tested probably 30 to 40 audio apps over the past 12 years and I own at least 100 audio apps. So, unless there’s some secret way to export a track into say garage band, Multi track, music studio, or any other DAW then I would sure love to know because I feel real stupid.

In accessibility

I am giving your app a 1 star rating today because I tried to download your app to use it only to realize I couldn't use it. As a blind musician in search of a good quality microphone I can record and make music with, I was excited to get this and try it out, but upon opening your app and trying to use it on my iPad and iPhone, I was utterly disappointed in the result. I use VoiceOver on the apple devices I have, and when I opened the app, it wouldn't talk at all, therefore making your app extremely inaccessible for blind users not only on the iPad but on every other apple device. When I read the features of the Audio Box Presonus Studio ITwo, I thought the microphone sounded like a really cool piece of equipment to use, however, blind musicians like me cannot use it due to the inaccessible app. With that being said, please consider how you make/develop your apps so they are accessible to everyone. Have a great day!
