## What is Steve Roach Immersion I?

Immersion Station is an elegant interactive sound immersion tool. Create infinite mix combinations from five different loops of varied lengths for endless playback.

### 5/5 — wonderful I have had this on My iPhones for years

*2023-02-19, version 2.40.1*

Settimg up my new Apple Mac Studio. i am very happy. to the Immersion Station app for my Mac.

### 4/5 — Needs a sleep timer function.

*2018-05-11, version 2.30.2*

Would be much more useful if it could automatically end/fade out with a timer.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2016-08-27, version 2.20*

Press play and go to another world.

### 5/5 — Get these Apps and chill!

*2015-03-26, version 2.20*

I've been a huge fan of Steve Roach, a legend of trance-tribal ambient music for decades. These apps ingeniously design by Eric Freeman with Steve bring together visual Art design, on-the-go tech, and lush ambient loops in a seamless way. They are infinite as you can interact and create and store your own loops with titles you dream up! Beyond cool! Bravo!

### 5/5 — Genius Concept

*2015-03-16, version 2.20*

This is ear and eye candy

### 5/5 — Ambient Acid!

*2014-11-22, version 2.20*

A fun sound toy and excellent meditation tool.

### 4/5 — Cool app

*2014-03-21, version 2.20*

Very cool interface. Some of the mixes are fairly eerie Sounding! Works fine on the iPad too.

### 3/5 — Could be much better

*2014-01-27, version 2.20*

As mentioned previously, the my mixes scroll issue and pause on lock screen issue subtracts one star. 
I hope more loops will become available..or do I have to buy more stations for some variety?

### 4/5 — Brilliant App!

*2014-01-09, version 2.20*

Easy to use and lovely to listen to. Highly recommended.

### 5/5 — Incredible Concept & Usability

*2014-01-08, version 2.20*

Put simply, I'm a big SR fan, and as someone who doesn't mind listening to all his tracks looped while working... no brainer here.  Amazing, amazing!  Quick note to devs: the scroll on the loop selection page doesn't allow me to reach my mixes at the bottom.  Also, would love to be able to pause when on the lock screen.  Pressing pause does nothing, so I either have to level the volume down or unlock to close the app.
