Love the app, here’s some suggestions…

Hi there I love the app and there are some wicked breaks in there. Can I suggest a few things. Maybe add some pads for slices so that the break runs continuous but you can interrupt whatever is playing with whatever slices you want. You could have quantise on so your pad taps hit on time. Maybe a couple of modes so that you can tap play once and it starts and once again don’t stops as it is right now and another mode where you tap and hold to play, then another where every tap starts the loop , but have 8 buttons so you can have cue points like in DJ kit and either auto chop or select what slices you want on the pads. I know all that is a lot but I’ve played with this kind of thing for years right back to Sony Acid and Recycle & Reason from their first versions and even earlier with Ataris and Amigas, even earlier still to mid 80s with pause button tape mixes! I love this app and would happily pay more for it and hope you can incorporate some of my suggestions in the app! Peace, love and unity!

Love it

Brilliant software, all though since it is paid would be nice if there were more features, such as adding in your own breaks. A good idea i had was if you could drag the reverse button to a segment and have that segment play in reverse for the break. Anyway to change the pitch would be greatly appreciated.

Im saying all this as someone who had the original app on my iphone 3GS and loved it.
So happy to have it back, just really hope it keeps updated.

Rhythm Heaven

Fantastic chopping tool for the 8 included breaks, FX selection is nice and high quality, with a unique sounding filter mod.

Minor complaints: the app is lacking is a slightly more user friendly way of changing the BPM that doesn’t involve tapping a very small button 20-40 times, and could be further improved by the ability to import user loops.

But all of this is very forgivable considering a development team of 1 person. Well worth the price.
