Go-to app for recording

Would have got five stars if there was more flexibility on tempo for backing loops, and if there was some/any indication that the app is still supported and being developed. Ability to export to StudioMini on other devices would be a plus, so I could carry on working on a song. But this is being picky picky. Love this app.

Developer Response ,

Thank you for your feedback. We are still developing and supporting StudioMini. We're indie developers and not a large company, so updates can sometimes take a while. Thanks for your patience and support!

Does what you want

Problem with most sound recording equipment is it's too complex and the interface is too clunky. This program is simple but very elegant and tactile. Good results even with the internal mic but you can use external and headphone mics too (try dangling your iPhone headphones through the sound hole of your guitar!). A very straightforward and hassle-free export function lets you export to programs like Garage Band to add effects and edit carefully, but with this program alone the possibilities are endless. Also features some decent drum tracks that come recorded at various tempos to fit your needs.

A few features will hopefully be added along the way, for instance quick way to 'bounce down' and combine two tracks into one, but at the same time its simplicity is the main appeal.
