Ratings and Reviews
Does what it says but slightly limited
This app is very good for playing backing tracks and I like the features it provides, however, I have two gripes:
1. The in-app purchases are on the nickel-and-diming side on things. Each upgrade is worth it, and they are well listed and described, however, I was surprised by the shear amount of them. I was expecting an unlock all features option. I get it though, the developers deserve compensation, and it is necessary to keep adding updates and features.
2. Only being able to output to channel 1 and 2 of an interface is a massive disadvantage. I was expecting to be able to select whichever outputs were necessary for a more complex setup. This limitation forces you to change your workflow to match what the app wants, instead of working the other way around. That’s a real downer and I hope it is addressed in the future.
Despite those two gripes, and some interface issues on modern iPhones (I’m looking at you performance mode’s close arrow), this is a pretty solid app that gets the job done.
Developer Response ,
Thank you for the thoughtful and helpful review! We appreciate both the praise and the criticism and will take both to heart. We agree that having more control over outputs when connected to an interface would be beneficial to many users. We’re currently in between developers but will be resuming updates as soon as we have the right person. Thanks for using ShowOne! :)
Update: Problem solved! 👍🏼Something happened and now...
UPDATE: After communicating with the team for several weeks they were able to fix this problem with the newest update to 1.5 and now integrated to the iPad. I love this app! I’ve been using it for 4 hrs now. Love that it runs in the background while being able to view charts or adjust my in ear mix. It does it seamlessly.
Highly recommend and is super easy and the workflow is fantastic!
This was a great workhorse app but now is failing. Whenever trying to create a “Set” the app closes/quits. Everything is updated and has been deleted and redownloaded several times and is still failing. I’ve done reboots, hard resets and closed all other apps. I’ve deleted all tracks and rebooted from “restore” and still fails whenever I push “Set” to create one on both the iPad and iPhone. Super bummed out.
Developer Response ,
EDIT: Glad we could get this resolved for you, and thanks for updating your review! Having good communication with our users is of paramount importance to us. Happy ShowOne-ing!
Original Response: We’ve been in communication with you via email to resolve this issue. We just sent instructions on how to send us that crash log data so we can get to the bottom of this. Sorry for your trouble - this is a problem that is unique to you so if we get it resolved please consider changing this review. Thank you.
Perfect for Running My Backing Tracks
I play guitar and play out in various band configurations. Sometimes full band but often with a keyboard player and solo. I use this live and for rehearsals to play backing tracks when I don't have live drums and bass or keys. I create backing tracks in BIAB. I pan drums left, bass right so I can adjust volume levels. Files import easily and quickly via Mac Finder. I previously used another app but it is no longer updated and ShowOne is easier to use. I regularly update just a few files and this app makes it easy to update the set lists. It lets me focus on playing music!
Developer Response ,
Thanks for the review! Our sole aim is to help musicians just like you get backing tracks in line for your gigs and rehearsals :))
