This digital widget can really surprise you with fresh decimated sounds and it simply could not be easier to use. Just start hitting the buttons and dragging the slider and sound data window and BOOM you have a whole new bag. Some reviews have said you can’t use custom sounds with weird non-bar lengths…but I have NOT had that problem! The problem I DO HAVE is that the app no longer works…it just opens and then closes. I see it in apps-running but the screen doesn’t stick to the active window. I tried reinstalling but no dice. It’s been like this for a while…I would hold off buying until this is resolved.

I’m trying to find out how to record your own sound I’ll give it better rating if it works

I'm digging this already just with the presets, but can't wait to throw my own sounds in here. This does a cut up method that seems difficult to find - whenever you hit one pad or another it can immediately cut over to that other sample at the same point In playback as the original pad, if that makes any sense... Anyway that's extremely useful for people into glitchy music. I can wait to see what this may be able to do when I control it from my digitakt Show more

Hey, first off I want to say I really like this app, there’s currently nothing else i can find that’s fun and easy to use that allows for such expressive and fun looping and glitching. I’m having an impossible time trying to import my own audio though, anything I copy in through the pasteboard just ends up coming out as white noise. I even wound up additionally buying AudioShare hoping that would work, but still no avail. It’s great and fun with the presets, but I just can’t find any way to make my own audio work. Would be great if that could be fixed or updated, thanks Show more

Love thIs app and look forward to new one! Hit me up for beta testing my friend !

I absolutely LOVE this app, and have been using it for years, but I would like to suggest that a new user would take the time to READ THE MANUAL before leaving a negative review out of frustration. You can really create some AWESOME ear candy with this app, AND when you combine it with other AWESOME apps, the creative possibilities are just endless!!!! GO TEAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Show more

Really love this app and how quickly you can get a great break going. However, since it doesn’t receive transport controls, like start/stop, it’s really tough to fit it into my workflow. Would be great if it would start at the same time as Audiobus or whatever is hosting it, like AUM/BM3/Cubasis/etc. Show more

It glitches and then breaks... as in, it fails to function and then crashes. At least it's consistent.

This is a bad way to make music, frankly. Can it add "glitch" to audio? Yes. Is it a good tool? Not really.

This app has great ideas and is fun to play with - when it works. I have noticed several bugs which I will document here. Firstly, the app plays much better on my iPhone 6 than on the iPad mini 2. Both are running iOS 10. There is an issue when playing on the iPad mini 2 where the sample stops snapping back to real time upon releasing the glitch, cut or loop mod breaks. Workaround is to immediately press the target icon. It is frustrating when the sample suddenly starts continuing from the part you stopped breaking at instead of snapping back in time to where you would be if you hadn't breaked. Secondly, and I've noticed this only once or twice with the iPhone 6 but it's really bad on the iPad mini 2, the Cut 1/2/3/4 button should only be lit when the Cut break is active. Sometimes it gets mixed up and it is unlit when active, lit when inactive and so forth. Thirdly, and it seems like this would be the easiest thing to fix, the Cut editor!! It would be really cool if it worked! The manual says you can "swipe up or down" to change the 1/16th beat it cuts to on the step which is lit, but no swiping action can change the zero value (on iPad or iPhone). More frustrating: only on iPhone do I see a + or - button above and below each digit, so the first time I open the Cut Editor I can try changing the values, but once I save to a Cut or press back, the + and - buttons disappear, only reappearing after rebooting the app. Worse yet, the cuts aren't even saved properly. No matter what I change it to, it always goes back to zero. So the only cuts I can create have all zero values and go back to the first beat again & again. ?. I would easily give this app 5 stars if it functioned as it should, even with the occasional freezing audio (when doing Glitch 12/3/4 breaks on the iPad mini 2). It's just that cool and fun to play! If it was functional this app would be worth 5x its price tag. I'm really hoping the developer reads this and, at the very least, fixes the Cut Editor. There's no contact info on the GlitchBreaks website. Show more

Buggy app

This app is a dream for fans of breakcore/hardcore/trance etc. it's so much fun and really comes in handy in the studio!

yea, the micro glitching is out of control? best glitching app ever brah. u want 64 th note glitch quantize or whatever u dream. ace

Thank u so very much-the other day I was b#*ching and wishin --and PRESTO! Here it is, my imagination and dreams materialized. I haven't gotten deep into it yet but the simple fact that these functions have come together and been laid out like they are is magic to me. I mean humans must be intellectually interconnected by means yet to be even pondered apone much less explained.even if I find it doesn't work I will wait patiently for the developer to work it out- heck, I'll even get a 2nd job to help finance the time it might take to fix bugs if they should arise - haven't had any problems yet. I feel giddy and ridiculous. Peace Show more

I guess considering that I like to create trip hop (60-90bpm) I have come to this app for my rhythmic needs and FX. I haven't used all of the library of sounds, but what I can get this thing to produce through GarageBand makes for amazing dynamic contrast and awesome ambience. I highly recommend this app for random glitch making and ambient drum tracks. Show more

There's nothing "dangerously high" about the memory. Please fix the issue. I just loaded four sounds taking ten minutes. As soon as I'm done, there's the most frequent message from Glitchbreaks above. Yes, maybe three years ago on an iPad 1 maybe. On a iPad mini retina that frequently runs 12 to 15 apps and I'm only running 1 right now? Please fix the issue. Upsetting. It's a good app to do remixing on but if it gets under your skin then it's really frustrating. Unique performance app. Great features and functions. Automation is cool too. Only downside is that it kicks out the four current samples and reverts to original sounds when it thinks the iPad is running low on memory. I'm using retina with no other apps running so it's a bit frustrating sometimes. There's no other app that comes even close to Glitchbreaks for unique glitch performance. Big props but no props on the old message to. Please fix it. Show more

Only supports 16 bit waves so you are stuck in 1980s sound quality. While there are lots of options in this app there is no real control of anything. It basically randomly plays four different waves that you can select from the library. A one-trick pony that is worth $2.99. Show more

I picked up GlitchBreaks because it went on sale and other users had recommended it. I'm actually not heavy into glitch/dubstep types of music, though I'll play around with anything for fun if it's affordable and well designed. GlitchBreaks is defintely those two things. There's a great selection of on-board loops and the export options (AB and both AudioCopy and direct export to AudioShare) are top notch. For those unfamiliar with this genre, you can introduce all types of glitching and stuttering effects while the app keeps track of where your beat should have been if you left it clean. You can mess around with the rhythm and create variation in the beat without losing tempo. Pretty cool app that translates well to small-screen iPhone, as well. Show more

Well, you just cant do much in this app. I was hoping for something more alike a step sequencer, and cool drum samples to choose from, but this is just some fixed presets and a kaoss style filter and slice manipulation. It is just too locked down, for the price i was hoping an app that I can actually use to make music. This is not the case. Be warned, this is a curious toy, not a music making app. Show more

I make a lot Of iOS music and this really adds some flavor to my palette. It's a great addition to nanostudio and nanoloop. Lots of fun!
