Appmuse

but with some of the bugs it has, i can't. if you try to change or turn cuts on/off the timing gets muddled pretty quickly, or sometimes it'll leave the cut going when the pad indicates that the cut should be off. i could live with that, but then the cuts themselves aren't starting at the right time. for some reason the cut sequence i made starts at the 5th step on the cut sequencer when i start the drum break, instead of starting with the break. other little bugs, like how the 2nd pad overwrites the 4th pad when you load a preset, erode at my patience for it. i really, really want to use and enjoy this app, but these bugs make it frustrating to use and sap the enjoyment out of it for me. i hope the dev can fix these problems as he's been pretty good at community support, but i'm not going to hold my breath.

Crashes to background at start up since the new update.

Crashes on launch, iOS 5.1.1 w/ iPhone 4S

Awesome tool for glitching samples but needs an update to fix the crashing that sometimes occurs at startup after you have imported samples.

If there's a way to record or import my own sounds, I haven't found it in the first hour and a half of goofing off with it. I was hoping this could replace some Reaktor usage in my work, but so far it seems a bit locked. There should be a way to record incoming audio to use on a pad. All that said, this is pretty fun and works well. The "glitch" mode is unpredictable, but not in the good way. More like it does its thing every time, but its never really what you'd hope for. I have piano hands, but still have trouble getting the audio to track my finger accurately. I am hopeful for updates, because it is VERY WELL PUT TOGETHER. The interface is pro looking, and there are possibilities! At the very least its a great DJ tool for juggling live loops and the cut modes get grooves going pretty quick. If I get to record live audio, I'd like to use it as an auto-looper with some cut fx. Great idea, just not quite finished IMO! 5stars when it is! Show more

I love this app. Very intuitive, fun as hell to use, and it has sparked some nice creativity.

Addictively fun,high quality,glitch bliss that this app is.You bet it is

Took a few iterations before Glitchbreaks was on my must-use list of tools. Seems to run like a champ now and the new Midi Clock Snap works great synced to Ableton! Looking forward to the future of this app... updated frequently :) Show more

A very fun app that has been consistently updated. As the audio copy has become more common as a functionality in other apps, glitchbreaks is even more useful. It's awesome to load your beats from figure into the sample pads. Show more

Neat app. Surprisingly powerful. Effects, cuts, glitches, all work well. Love the audiobus and copy/paste support. You can make some great stutter beats and build-ups/dropouts when you learn what's going on with the x/y pads. I'm still a novice with it, but the potential is huge. If you're strictly into beats, and you already have your iwn samples, this app is all you need to get going on the mobile beat production highway. Have fun! Show more

I import everything into GB, Breakbeats, basslines, vocals, everything! With the addition of midi and Audiobus, this app should be in every iOS producers arsenal. I never had an issue with the app and the few questions that I emailed in we're answered promptly. Great app overall and a lot of fun to use. Show more

Don't believe the 1 star review. I have been running this app hard since my I purchased it, (both in audiobus and standalone mode) and have not had the first problem with it. Fantastic out of the box, and excellent for creating sound patterns with your own samples and found sounds. The effects are solid, and the possibilities are endless. A must have for those inclined to be creative with rhythm. Show more

What a waste of money. Keeps crashing, won't let me record or load presets without crashing.

Fantastic tool, with timely, vigorous refinements and innovations

I love this app SO MUCH. Yeah, Midi might be nice, but after Audiobus I feel greedy asking for anything more. Thank you so much, Alex.

I've heard rumors of MIDI implementation. When it happens, this will be a 5 star app. Very useful, but quite fun to just play around with, too!

Support for audiobus and we need to be able to upload up too 3:00 mins from iTunes library.

I'm updating my review. After all the updates, this app is now really mature, and very powerful, just like I imagined it. Buy it!

...it's an instrument. Something you will be happy to have with you on stage or in the studio, but also something you have to "play" and practice at to master. This app is obviously aimed at the jungle / breakbeat / IDM crowd (is that what the kids call it these days?) but I have been using it in more subtle ways with downtempo and triphop tracks with much success. The new playable / tweakable FX features in 1.1 are the icing on the cake, making this a feature complete instrument and one of the most powerful, interesting, and musical apps in the app store.

The glitch modulation seems much smoother and more nuanced, but the effects in the new update are simply fantasic. The number of control parameters is a dream, and the quality of the effects themselves is thoroughly impressive. This is a wonderful addition to a very fun app. Show more
