| 2024-11-30 |  | | I love this app. It's simple yet elegant and is an excellent resources for making the content that I make. One thing though- recently I've noticed that some of the tracks I've made have audio issues. Namely, there will be a fluctuation from loud to quiet almost constantly in the track. Is there a way to fix this? |
| 2024-11-29 |  | | Generally pretty good. Sometimes it glitches and you can't see the track you're making. Other times there are problems with saving and publishing, but it's usually safe. Ads have started to pop up everywhere, which is annoying. It's beginning to feel like a pay to create app. If you're fine with that, then welcome! |
| 2024-11-26 |  | | Geniunely the best free DAW on any platform. The amount of stuff you get and can do for free is without a doubt mind boggling. You can create entire albums, produce them, and distrube them all through this one app. I normally hate writing reviews because it can come across as phoney and fake, but I mean this with every fiber of my being, GET THIS APP. The only issue is crashes, which is only a problem with overly complex tracks. Even then, you can still save during a crash. |
| 2024-11-24 |  | | I've reinstalled this app more than three times, thinking that my memory of how horrible this app is must be wrong and yet this is the final time Ill uninstall it. This app. Sucks! It's free but that's all it has going for it! You can't always move sounds around freely, it's fidgety and very bare bones when it comes to presets the app provides you and worst of all..? Little to no Rock/Puck options to play around with. If you like rock this app ain't for u |
| 2024-11-24 |  | | The best music/beat maker around so far by far!!! Easy navigation and quality sounds for any genre. BandLab is a music creator/lovers fantasy. I get bored about 10 mins in on other apps, but let me tell you BandLab has its own universe of sounds and loops and other features ive never tried. One could lose track of time if they enter this app unaware. So theres your heads up. If you love making music and messing around w sounds then this app is for you. |
| 2024-11-24 |  | | So far I'm not real happy with it. It's extremely confusing the way it's laid out. Trying to navigate thru the app to get what i want to get done is difficult and frustrating. The studio board should be laid out a lot simpler. To me, everything about this app is just caos and confusion. Also, the reason I tried it was because I saw an ad that said you could hum a tune into a mic and change it into whatever instrument you want. I still haven't found any mention of that feature. |
| 2024-11-23 |  | | I been using this app for almost 5 years now. It's good asf but I don't like the fact how it has "New changes", "new options" just to make you force and pay for your own given talent "membership" 🤷🏾. I gave it 1 star because you have to pay for "auto select key" on your vocals and autotune and this used to not be a feature. Everything that was once free and given to you for years is now being forced by the protagonist to pay for it. Ads are also increasing and tracks are delayed when recording |
| 2024-11-21 |  | | Best believe!!! If u are one of simplicity, creative, and with brevity, you will be the only, first, and or the best at any wave... Old or new, your interpretation coupled with the perfect contrast of true expression, would most likely and definitely unlock portals conducive to your journey as an artist or viewer. Watch me!!! |
| 2024-11-19 |  | | I Love this app so much that I hate calling it an app. It has countless loop packages you can mix together, if playing live instruments is your thing you can mic or plug in and record, the creative possibilities are endless. Not to mention the whole social media platform and contacts and everything.. I could go on and on. As a drummer in a band I had a lot of fun making my own projects during covid, if only to have something cool to show my friends, who knows you may be the next solo star. |
| 2024-11-18 |  | | Great UI and great patches/samples to work with. It's also very easy to write, edit, and even move notes around. But I hate that it doesn't have a LFO as an effect, or even a synth as an instrument. There is so much more that I can't do without those things, especially a stand-alone LFO that I can apply to an instrument track as FX. Overall a decent app though. |
