KONTROL is a drum machine/step sequencer made for Android phones. It allows sampling via it's music player and uses .wav files only. Works with 10:16, 16:9 and 19:9 aspect ratios. Using 3.5mm headphone jack is strongly recommended. You will also need an external micro SD card for sampling.
After installation place up to five .wav files in the following path on your device if you wish to sample:
SD card/
Android/
data/
com.Zillatronics.KONTROL/
files/
Sample a song by tapping the large button, on beat, in the sampler. Keep tapping until the counter turns red.
*EXITING APP CLEARS SAMPLES AND PATTERNS
The yellow button in sampler and power button on sequencer will clear samples and patterns.
You must exit the app if you're not happy with your samples/chops. Exiting will clear the samples and you can try again.
MP3 downloader and MP3 to WAV converter apps will be most helpful for sampling. Android's Screen Recorder can be used to record your work using media audio only, microphone or both.

Synth component a work in progress so check back for updates.
Remember to have fun!
Fun for noodling. Crashes on Pixel 3a when clicking sample button (I have no SD). Needs a save feature, it's frustrating to lose data! An app called Kontrol needs a stop/pause button and BPM select. Sequencer grid is unresponsive to taps sometimes. Is there a settings page? Need to turn off screen shake and animations! Buttons and sliders are too small! Bottom slider unselectable. It would be great if there was a play from set line on the Sequencer (though POs don't have it) Keep going dev!
