I’ve been searching the App Store for a sampler on iOS that lets me sample my synth sounds created on my Mac DAW and this is it! Other samplers seem to just increase the sample rate to match pitch and it renders the sampler useless as an instrument, as it just plays back the sample slower of faster (even GarageBand for iOS AUSampler is guilty of this). The design is simple and yet compact. This is a very useful and needed app for my workflow on iOS. Great job to BLEASS and Jordan!

I don’t like to write reviews that have issues that should be handled by tech support, but since they don’t answer those reliably then this is the only option. The IOS app stores user presets on iCloud and it appears there is no other option to store user presets locally. I had built up a library of 360+ user presets and it was causing the app to crash upon loading in AUM. The icon turns red and it forces me to reload, sometimes in the middle of a song and when it reloads it goes back to the default preset so I loose whatever work I did on the song. Also, the more I added user presets the more the response slowed - screen and preset lists became slower to refresh. It does not support folders so I removed most of the user presets and while it became more responsive it still occasionally will not load. I have a newer iPAD Pro (3rd Gen) purchased in Jan 2022 and a cable internet connection so I don’t think hardware is the issue. I did get a response on 8/24 when I first wrote about the sluggish response (reboot, check your internet connection, etc.) but have not heard from them when I emailed again on 9/6. This app is the easiest sampler I have used and I had tons of useful results with it. It would easily rank 4 stars if it were reliable and the dev would reliably respond to inquiries.Update: I never received any correspondence from the developer - and yes I check the spam folder daily. Nothing in the dev response made a difference - on my iPad this app has issues when a large number of user pressers are stored.

I had trouble getting started with this as an AUv3 plugin and ran into some glitches. At first my audio clips were not getting time stretched when pitch shifted, but got that working. The main issue now is that if I use the randomized button of this plugin inside of Loopy Pro after about 3 - 4 uses it breaks and Bleass stops out putting sound. The stand alone version of the app does not have this problem.UPDATE: After spending some days tinkering with this app I realized what gem I almost missed out on due to a bad first impression. I still run into little issues like with the randomize button, but this app is AMAZING for creating unique instruments instantly with my microphone. It’s awesome inside of Loopy Pro. I was able to set up a button in Loopy that records my mic input to BLEASS with the press of a button and it is immediately playable on my keyboard. Pitch shifting with time stretching DOES work for me now and it’s fantastic. So many features I didn’t realize I needed or wanted! I love this app!

Where is modern mode?I feel like Samplewiz and Samplewiz 2 sound different where modern mode is engaged on samplewiz? Now on samplewiz 2 granular is selected instead….and cloud definitely isn’t modern mode, it’s like moving grains mode (a new mode). So while it is an update to many things, it feels like a downgrade on the modern engine. All my modern Samplewiz instrument sound way different when I try to recreate them in the new version? Modern used Dirac is this still in the app? Curious.
