    Love it.
    Great app. I used to use Launchpad, but I really like Hook more. Not sure how to "cleanup" my samples. No delete feature and while playing around I have a bunch of samples I want to delete. Can't seem to do that. An Undo would be nice. I accidentally dropped some sounds in wrong place on stage and overwrote all that I had done placing sounds. Had to start over. Would like more extensive sample and sound editing. It's supposed to be automatic, but it's not that intuitive. It's easy but to get it right and on beat takes some time. Works great though. I do love this app. I think some tweaks to the library and sound/sample storage and cleanup. Things like that and it's a 5 star app. Would like to be able to Hear the loops play while IN interapp app so while playing a synth I can hear the beats and keys ect. That said the inter app integration works well. Great job Retronyms. Show more

    Wow this rocks!
    I've been wanting a way to DJ my set off an iOS device in a way that lets me improv for some time now, and this one is big enough to let me do just that! The grid just keeps scrolling and scrolling so I can put down as many cells as I need, and I can organize and label them easily. It also will automatically beat slice them so I can transpose and play them at different tempos, and has a detailed sample editor as well. Super cool. And the seamless transitions and drops are the icing on the cake. Show more

    It's going to be great, once it's a bit more predictable
    I like their stuff, and I do buy and own quite a few of their Loopmasters-based sound packs to play with. If you've used them in iMPC Pro, or just used Launchpad, you might find "clips" that don't start on the bar as you'd expect, even though they're configured for that very behavior. I've had clips that launched a quarter beat too early, because I thought that the previous one of the same "type" (like a new bass line or kick rhythm to replace the currently playing one) would finish out its 4/4 bar before the newly selected one fires. Since all of them were configured for an entire bar of "resolution," it just seemed like it would work similar to other applications of this type. You can configure any given sample to have one bar, 1/2, 1/4, etc. timing points for the app's logic to know when to transition into another clip. But it just seemed like it would exit the currently playing clip by a 1/4 or 1/2 beat too early to start the next one, so I just wait until I'm within the last quarter of a given clip before I stop it or launch the replacement. But it's epic, and SO smooth. Very quick on my 6s Plus 128 GB, and I was making new projects and just importing packs I've already owned. On that note, I'm going to reserve my opinion on its behavior because, as shown with their iMPC Pro, it can paste entire libraries perfectly. I got kind of odd results, but I think I'm just doing something wrong. Show more
