    UPDATE this is driving me crazy!!!!
    I have never used “midi learn/clear” and don’t plan on using it. Why does this menu show up so quickly on long touching the iPad... and then it sticks making a few taps to get it to go away.... this really drags workflow... what can’t this be turned off to accommodate most users... that feature is no something called upon that we need it after a half second is up... its so annoying please add a preference. Please. I’m convinced the limited sounds and the quality in the drum machine are mirrored from Emu SP1200 or 12bit machine alike. The sequencer groove (swing) stands out as having the same behaviors of the older boxes (DMX, Drumtrax, Linn) it literally reminds me of programming back in the day... I appreciate the limit of just kick + snare + hat... what else do you really need at the time of sketching... It takes a little time before it happens, but when it does you will know you are there. Don’t know how else to explain it but this app is my new main tool for writing out ideas... I’d like to see some more filters added although the comb is perfection, no suggestions it’s made just right. Sugar Bytes is paid before the mortgage around here! Show more

    OMG, this is blowing my mind!
    Aparillo is insanely fun right out if the box, so to speak. The sound textures you can make with Aparillo is truly mind blowing with looking under the hood, but if you do, you are ‘down the rabbit hole.’ And what a hole it is! THANK YOU Sugerbytes for adding note hold. It was the only thing preventing my purchasing the app. Note hold is a key part of my sound tapestry creation technique. And thank you for making note hold persistent while sampling multiple presets. When I’m in my creation process, unnecessary mechanical interaction can break the musical idea I’m working on. Show more

    Very nice. Fun. Flexible.
    Good groovebox. Ableton Link works as long as you have External also selected. Love that it works as an AU. Will be lots of fun adding this to my collection of jam boxes! Show more

    Brilliant, creative, fun for hours
    Simple, intuitive and well thought out interface. Yet surprisingly powerful once you look under the hood. Within minutes of purchase, I was having great fun creating beats I never could have imagined. I’m looking forward to see how this killer music app evolves. I highly recommend it, there’s nothing like it. A lot of bang for the buck. However— I would give 5 stars if I could rely on my files staying the same way I left them. Opening previously saved works is inconsistent—sometimes the tempo is sped up, or some of my saved patterns simply disappear. Show more

    The drums aren’t working
    With this new au3 release, the drums aren’t working. Did you not know that before releasing it? Or worse, did you?
  • DaMacMaclure, 11.10.2017
    Check it devs
    Add another slicer track?!? Add ur own samples to drum and bass sections?!? Would make it unstoppable. Just throwing it out there. Design and layout makes me feel hip. Makes me wanna go to Starbucks and just leave the app open to look cool. Show more

    UNUSABLE ON IPAD PRO FOR OVER A YEAR
    My 2016 9.7 iPad Pro STILL cant run this app I love for over a year now, it worked great on my iPad Air 1 as well as Air 2. I’ve been waiting in vain for a fix to the laggy, sluggish, no fun performance of Egoist but it’s no use, I’ve even deleted and redownloaded a few times in hopes of it working again but nope, and Sugarbytes can’t seem to be bothered so I’m done now. :( Show more

    Barely Responsive
    I see I’m not the only one having issues on a iPad Pro 12.9. 2017 model. Slicer portion of app is very sluggish, animation showing slicer movement and output level moves ridiculously slow. Audio sounds fine but you can’t use any of the controls without serious bad latency. Egoist not usable in this state and that’s too bad cause I was excited to try it instead I threw money away. Take NOTE, I emailed support about this and gave a reasonable amount of time for some response. A Simple “we are working on it” or “we hear you” would have been suffice rather I was met with complete silence. Considering the asking price for this app,,,put your self in my shoes. Show more

    Ableton Link!
    This app was really great to start with, but it was a bummer there was no Link integration....new update has remedied that...making this app super duper excellent...this app allows you to mangle samples then add independent bass, and drums to the diced samples....allowing you to create unique sounding songs/textures very quickly and easily. Get it, you'll love it. Show more

    get it
    intuitive, fun, beautiful UI, easy to use but doesn't make your music for you. get it.

    Easy to drown in for hours...
    The guys at sugar bytes have made some of my favorite soft synths and effects that have been in my sound for years. Egoist is no exception as I haven't really put it down. It's certainly part beat and groove box. I've tried to make it lame and nope - even if I load some show tunes in here, soon they turn into twerkalicious disco house. You can't go wrong with the egoist and you'll be rocking to the beat of your own drums soon! Show more

    Fun To Use x Serious Results
    Egoist is special: every aspect leads to creativity and awesome results. The Slicer is an Endless source of fast fun and incredible chop + (re)arrange ability. The Bass / Beats page is an example of potent minimalism and the drum sounds are so So good. What can be done with 3 drum sounds and an awesome bass synth? A hell of a lot it turns out. Add the Slicer to the equation and the possibilities exponentially explode. Now add the Effects page to the equation: actually a Multi-effects monster that's incredibly easy to use and can be applied to any sound. One of my most-used and favorite apps of all time - Thank You Sugar Bytes! Show more

    Nothing but fun
    I've been using this app to create some funk jams. I'm more of a guitar player than anything else but as soon as I started using this I just couldn't stop. It was fun putting together rhythms that I can play along with. The tutorials that I found online are for the desktop version and, interestingly enough, they work exactly the same with this version. In other words, you're not getting a watered down version. You're getting all the fun on your iPad. I recommend this one very much. Show more

    Unique music app
    Has some great features & good slicing.. Graphically it lags a lot. SB claims an update is coming, but it has been months.
  • apollo1377, 27.12.2014
    This is awesome
    Watch the videos, buy this app put some headphones on and dig in. You will get lost for hours. It really is a great app. Go through the presets. Amazing.

    Electro House Chopper
    I love the Audio Unit version of this for the Mac in Logic Pro. Hoping that a future version will allow preset sharing between the two.

    Critical app for the iOS producer
    Naturally you're hesitant to spend more than $5 on any app without hands on experience. Do not hesitate with the fun, accessible, advanced and gorgeous Egoist.
