There is no end to the wild and even beautiful sounds you can produce with this, by starting with your own voice or whatever else and altering it in many ways, and then playing it with a well laid out interface. Anything from retro science fiction to really meditative and ambient chops can be produced, saved and altered again. Looking forward to updates, but great as is. More advanced saving of compositions would be nice. Just download this. Blows away many of the iPhone synth apps. Show more

I'm a recording artist and this is great for making new sounds. I love it. this would be worth hundreds in a music program but its cheap. Its fun too.

This is EXACTLY the thing I have been looking for. I would have paid at least $10 for this without hesitation. The only thing that would make it absolutely perfect is the option to play the sample backwards. Other than that, one of the best (if not THE best) audio apps in the app store. Low app raters have no experience in the audio field. This is more of a tool than a toy, but yet it's still fun as heck! Show more

I will use this app with my home recorder to make Simmons Drum snare sounds... you can simply record yourself making a "Shhhh" noise with your mouth and by adjusting the sample with the easy-to-use controls, voila! Instant Simmons drums! Just what I needed! Suggestions for updates... Please make it so a sample can be edited by allowing a selection of the sample to be deleted, then combine the top and bottom sections to make one sample. Thanks for a great and useful app! P.S. The people who have reviewed this app as "useless" obviously aren't into recording and don't understand the applications a tool like this has. If you don't know what a sampler is and what it does, you may be dissapointed. But if you're curious about how they make a lot of the effects you hear in music since the 1980's, this app is a simple to use introduction to the world of sampling. If you're the creative type, this is a great app. If you aren't, you won't understand a need for this app. Show more

Oh, I can't believe there are some reviews calling this boring! Totally reflective of their own lack of creativity. Anyway, this thing is a fabulous compositional tool. Very intuitive and immediate. Not only can you record your own samples; you can also record your improvs/gestures and send them to yourself for further editing, processing, etc. in your main DAW. Use it on the iPad in 2x mode for more screen real estate! Can't wait for the iPad version and feature updates the developer is planning! Show more

I mean what do you do with it anyway? Boring and stupid waste of 2bucks don't buy it.... It's really freaking stupid

In 2 years, this might be the first time I've felt the desire to write a review. This app is fantastic. It does everything it claims and the sound quality is top notch. Those giving it a bad review probably had no idea of what it did before downloading it. Show more

Stupid, boreing.... And the sound is more like a freqency mixer...if ur a weird person ud like this app

This gets boring quickly.

SampleToy is good at what it dose and that is mangle sounds. I found it to be fun and easy to learn!!!

Easy, quick, and expansive. Very high quality. A no brainer at 2 bucks. Can't wait to see what updates may bring.

I am using this to create atmospheres in a home studio. Trent Rezor/Twiggy Ramirez caliber sampling on your iPhone. Finds it's way into every song. Can't wait to see what features updates bring. Show more

I love the app. However, can we see an update that allows the uploading of samples from a desktop? Also, I'd like to lock a selection, so that I can move a segment along a sample without resizing it. Show more

Sold me.. Thanks bro! This app is awesomely awesome, take thermos79's review and slap a ditto on it for me.. (although it's hard for me to pick a favorite app in this genre I love them all) I must say.. The delay.. The scales.. The multi-touch.. Perfect.. Definately a MUST buy for any audio geek. Show more

If bebot were a sampler and granular synthesizer, it would look something like this. This may turn out to be one of the more useable iphone instruments for me personally. 2 functional things: I can usually make a note stick in stepped mode if I move all the way from left to right. Also, personally I think the range function should work when you are in stepped mode as well, thus you could do away with bass mode altogether. Wish list: More mangling efx such as distortion (bit degrade?), etc. Possibly a more customizable scale choice a la bebot. Also, it would be great if you could select the direction of the sample being played by sliding your finger forward or backwards over the sample bar. Anyway, by far the most useful (to me) granular synth/sampler app I've tried. Show more

This is the most fun I've had with a sound/music app yet and I have about everyone that's hit the App Store!

Excellent and engrossing app. I've been looking for this kind of instrument since i got the iPhone. Thanks.
