Holding the simplicity of eighties instruments and carrying their raw heritage to you, it turns your device into a pocket beat making companion. I believe that designing a pure interface, simply displaying your machine without any distraction, was the best way to reflect the spirit of the period it was born. Warning ! A CR-8k is actually very easy to operate and to play with but still tricky to program. Please refer to corresponding documentation or just take the challenge !

Can’t program drums
Wasted money. It won’t playback what I register to the track. It’s in basic mode too. I can hear the instrument when I hit register but nothing happens when I press play. Disappointed.
United StatesBetter than Buying a Real CR-8000
I chose this over the CR-5k because I like being able to program my own rhythms, even though CR-5k is less expensive. So far, I’m really enjoying the app, and I’ve figured out how to control CR-8k via my piano using my iPad, the Lightning Camera Connection Kit, and the Midimittr app as a proxy. I do, however, have a question: are there any plans for direct wired (USB) MIDI? If so, awesome! It would definitely open up more ways to control this already awesome app. 👍 If you don’t have plans to implement USB MIDI, no big deal. 🙂
United Stateswhy?
Why don't the buttons move?
United StatesFun! UPDATED YEP 😄
There are a lot of very sophisticated drum machines on iOS but this devs apps are just fun! Hoping for that AUv3 soon! I give him 5 stars just for the fun factor! I’m adding a star because dev is working on AUv3! Still looking for AUv3 though! I like this because it gives me the sound and feel of my first drum machines. I have plenty of others but this on (I think because of the workflow) gives me those whacky patterns I got back in the day! No update yet 😢 OK it’s here! 👍🏼 Dev gets an extra star for quick reply! 😄 Looking forward to update! Happy Holidays! Not showing up as IAA. ☹️ Need that AUv3 support! I love old drum machines!
United StatesGreat sounds
This is a fun drum machine app that takes me back to my youth. Can’t seem to get the effects to work tho. Other than that, I’m having a lot of fun with it.
United StatesCrashed my iPhone 10
I started working with it and then there was no way to get out of the app. Had to shut off my phone.
