Description

Koala is the ultimate pocket-sized sampler. Record anything with your phone's mic instantly. Use Koala to create beats with those samples, add effects and create a track!

Koala’s super intuitive interface helps you make a tracks in a flash, there is no brake pedal. You can also resample the output of the app back into the input, through the effects, so the sonic possibilities are endless.

Koala's design focuses totally on making the music making progress instant, keeping you in the flow and keeping it fun, not getting bogged down by pages of parameters and micro-editing.

"Been putting that $4 koala sampler to good use lately. Undeniably great tool that puts some of these expensive beat boxes to shame. A must cop."

What’s New

Version 1.4092

- You can now save to iCloud drive
- Tempo tap could generate infinite tempos if the taps were generated fast
- Resample from individual buses
- fixed problems with dragging finger off buttons and then back onto them
- holding clear and tapping keyboard button when in keyboard mode will clear the notes for the current pad
- Can now open TOOLS menu just by dragging up or down on TOOLS rather than having to tap
- There is now a cog on the song info panel that opens a menu of song related options.
- If pad has a slash '/' in the label, it would crash "EXPORT ALL SAMPLES" because it incorporated it blindly into the
file name making a directory.
- Fixed swing midi mapping
- emoji are rendered monochromatically in text labels like song names, bus names and pad labels

A winner

Great great app. Period.
One thing really bothers me. If you buy an app and you like it a lot, it's cool to communicate that to others by rating it. If an update has bugs, you DONT RATE IT AGAIN WITH A BAD RATING TO THREATEN THE DEVELOPER. You email the guy or girl to let him know. You know the app is good so why screw up the apps sales because of a bug that will get fixed. Ratings are not there to communicate with the developer. The thing that really shows that the people who do that do not care about anyone but themselves, is that they never change their bad rating. So the promise of hanging thé rating if the bug is fixed is never honoured.
Koala is fantastic. Every app has bugs sometimes. If every time a bug appeared everyone would give a bad rating, every app would have lousy ratings. Most people realize this so it's not a big problem. It's only bad when one if those ignorant people buy a great app.

Fun, easy and portable

At first I didn’t use the app despite rave reviews from friends. I was on a plane ride with nothing to do opened up and made 3 ideas quickly learning how to use it.
I’ve played with my niece and nephew with it and everyone loves it’s simple and fun interface. Thank you

A new way of making music and creating sound

This app is simply brilliant. I am using it as a DAW to make music because, compared to transitional DAWs, it has a live-execution flavor to it. You can't record automations, but you can sample and resample everything. The sonic and composition possibility of this app are nearly limitless. I have been using it for 2 months and I keep rediscovering this app. Endless creative space in your pocket sized smartphone. That's simply the new way of making music. Embrace the future ;)
