Crashes on settings
I do like very much the layout, use, and sounds. However, crashes whenever I try to open settings. No response from tech support.
United StatesTook over my phone!
Sounded promising, but the app won’t close. I have to reboot every time I use it.
United StatesRippin
Love this app, recommend it often, and use all the time for writing and for break beats in tunes!
United StatesThe Best Drum Machine
This is an amazing Drum machine for 5.00. The only thing is I wish it had a randomizer for drum patterns.
United StatesLove this APP, you get out what you put In
Used this on a few of my tracks or just to get ideas. Make a loop and then bounce it to audio. Once in audio you can either leave “as-is” or convert that audio to midi in ableton and then fill in w samples from the same drum machine. It will keep the same groove or swing from the box but you can then compress, buss or effect each individual sound. Use it as a starter to get you somewhere else.
United StatesAbandoned ware?
This was a nifty app. Seems it’s become abandoned.
United StatesFavorite App of All Time
This app has literally stayed on my home screen for 4 consecutive iPhones. No exaggeration, it is to me the greatest app ever made.
