I was walking down the street when out the corner of my eyeI saw a pretty little thing approaching meShe said, "I never seen a man, who looks so all aloneAnd could you use a little company?If you can pay the right price, your evening will be niceBut you can go and send me on my way"I said, "You're such a sweet young thing, why you do this to yourself?"She looked at me and this is what she saidOh there ain't no rest for the wickedMoney don't grow on treesI got bills to pay, I got mouths to feedThere ain't nothing in this world for freeOh no, I can't slow down, I can't hold backThough you know, I wish I couldOh no there ain't no rest for the wickedUntil we close our eyes for goodNot even fifteen minutes later after walking down the streetWhen I saw the shadow of a man creep out out of sightAnd then he swept up from behind, he put a gun up to my headHe made it clear he wasn't looking for a fightHe said, "Give me all you've got, I want your money not your lifeBut if you try to make a move I won't think twice"I told him, "You can have my cash, but first you know I gotta askWhat made you want to live this kind of life?"He saidOh there ain't no rest for the wickedMoney don't grow on treesI got bills to pay, I got mouths to feedThere ain't nothing in this world for freeOh no, I can't slow down, I can't hold backThough you know, I wish I couldOh no there ain't no rest for the wickedUntil we close our eyes for goodWell now a couple hours past and I was sitting in my houseThe day was winding down and coming to an endAnd so I turned on the TV and flipped it over to the newsAnd what I saw I almost couldn't comprehendI saw a preacher man in cuffs, he'd taken money from the churchHe'd stuffed his bank account with righteous dollar billsBut even still I can't say much because I know we're all the sameOh yes we all seek out to satisfy those thrillsOh there ain't no rest for the wickedMoney don't grow on treesWe got bills to pay, we got mouths to feedThere ain't nothing in this world for freeOh no we can't slow down, we can't hold backThough you know we wish we couldOh no there ain't no rest for the wickedUntil we close our eyes for good

I guess, from what I gather from other reviews, you used to be able to record in mp4, directly to garage band with this thing, as and interapp audio instrument. What it needs to do is be an “audio unit extension,” instrument that records to garage band on your device, in midi, and if it was that way I’d pay $47 bucks to own this app, instead of the .47 cents a month they want. Without that function, it’s just a glorified toy. Who knows, maybe apple made them change it to where it couldn’t even record mp4 to GarageBand as an “inter app audio instrument,” (does sound only, not midi like the audio unit extension) on the device, and instead had to use the device mic, to record tinny, terrible, sound, cause they thought it was too good. If so, that’s a shame and not the developer’s fault. And if I just can’t figure out how to do what I’m describing, and it already does it, then I’m sorry, but I don’t think this is the case. If Apple doesn’t want other companies to make apps like I’m describing, then they ought to do it, as add ons. They could make a lot of money, selling digital instruments that record to GarageBand as “audio unit extensions,” in midi, that are upgrades to what the current program offers. Which this app would be, if it did what I described.

This app originally recorded directly to mp4, like most music apps. It was possibly the best guitar app on the market. After various updates, it now records through the device microphone, causing the expected large amount of distortion. Even with the full paid version, this renders it virtually useless for recording and sending tracks. It has become essentially a practice toy rather than the formidable recording tool it once was. On the good side, the developers have been pretty good about correcting errors to make the app usable. Perhaps they will correct this one.

I really wanted to like this app and I thought the qualities were nice. I just wish there was at least one left handed guitar to practice with. I tried flipping the iPad, but it forces the guitar to be in one direction. I couldn’t reverse the chord orders to at least hold the iPad upside down either. It’s quite tricky trying to teach myself upside down because I’ve got the proper left handed guidebook. Maybe if none of the guitars can be a left handed one make it possible to ‘reverse’ the chosen guitar so we don’t have to learn upside down. 😐
