2025-01-05 | Not worth a subscription fee. A one time payment would be perfect. I already got too many subscriptions I cannot track | ||
2024-10-31 | Really wanted to like this app. Opened and ads. Uninstall. Plus a person month fee for a drum machine. Never | ||
2024-10-09 | Importing own sample doesn't work, it can see the folders but not the sample files. EDIT: Contacted the dev and no response in 4 days. | ||
2024-03-06 | Could not figure out how to use it on my own so searched for tutorials and the tutorials on your own YouTube channel Don't seem to match this app. Looks like it could be a great app, but when I hit the record button for a sequence it doesn't record anything I hit. Most buttons I'm hitting aren't bringing up the same menus shown in your video explanations. | ||
2023-10-18 | This app is pretty good, but the free version just isn't practical for serious music making. To make the song longer, you have to pay. It's not a ridiculous price but I'm not going to pay for something I can just do on a computer. It's user friendly if you know what to expect, but it was all very overwhelming and confusing at first and a tutorial of some sort would have really helped. Overall, it has a wide variety of sounds and I would love this app if I could use it to make full-length songs. | ||
2023-04-30 | I have had this since 2020...found it outside Google play. Excellent sequencer / drum machine. Simple, easy to use with portable device/small screen. Now on Google play. The free version works well, some functions off. (But, really cool stuff like voice echo, reverb, and other mods are in free version!)... Full version unlocks all features...I haven't been able to try full version. Adds are not bad & it works offline. I do recommend this app...excellent...and have had no problems with it. | ||
2023-04-05 | It's hard to get the hang of but once you do it has variety but I'm still not fully got the hang of it tho. And I love the way it can keep up with my fingers and I'm not that fast but every tap is matched with a Beats sound I love that Developer keep up the good work & thank you. I hope it gets easier to learn how to use in future updates or use Thanks Again. | ||
2022-11-04 | I've been using the paid version of this app since 2020, but its only been very recently that it began crashing immediately after I tried creating and adding a 4th track into a new session file. Frustrating as ever because I know the kind of high quality work I can get out of this program and suddenly now I'm not getting it. | ||
2022-07-20 | I have to give this 5 stars! After searching for 9 years, I finally found a music making app that delivered! Easy to use with an intuitive design. There are so many features that are actually! This is the best app of this type that I've found so far! The only and very small issue I've had was that the ad at the bottom of the screen occasionally covers up some buttons. Even if you never fixed that, I'd still give you 5 stars! Don't change! | ||
2022-03-25 | Would love to renew my subscription, but not until I can export the midi data to use on my DAW. Fun tool for sure, it would be heaven sent if I could use the midis in my hundreds of dollars worth of VSTs and make proper music with. But it isn't worth a subscription for canned effects with no midi export. |
