Hi,
so when did this new crop of Android stuff come out? Now this:
https://market.android.com/details?id=z ... _installed
very cool! Haven't tried it yet, but it looks good, and besides the usual "uh...how can I make it sound like Gaga? this sux," kind of stuff, the reviews seem positive.

let us know, 'cause I'm curious.
Honestly I hate using the marketplace, I don't like using CC online (call me paranoid) so I try to get everything via AndroidPit w/ Paypal. But I'll give in if it's good enough :D

I've checked it out and editting for example works quite well, surely easier then "Reloop". It's like a real DAW basicly ( FL style ).
The FX sounds fine, but when you put in several ( Reverb + delay + dist for example ) it takes a while to process it.
It renders the changes, then starts playing the pattern.
I didn't put it lots of notes, so am not sure howlong the program would take to process that ( will test that soon ).

There are 16 tracks to use, with option per track to set which FX mixerchannel to use. Haven't found a loopfunction, it now plays on.
There is a small scope, which i find useless so i hope the dev will add an option to disable it ( maybe save some CPU power ).
What is strange is that the program only uses about 48MB RAM max, when i start the program 17MB of those 48MB are already in use. Seems not a lot left, but i haven't pushed it to the max (yet!). Only made a short pattern, with a few FX.
The program does appear to get slow fast.

The program instruments are wav files mapped with C0-7 octave prefixes, I suppose endusers can add their own but I haven't tried yet.
There are only a couple of instruments atm, and 2 drumkits ( notes of the drumkits are listed at the bottom of the octave range..C0 )

Tested on my Asus Transformer TF101 16GB.

Cheers!

thanx for that.
Too bad it has to render... but then again, we are talking about cell phones here :P
seems Caustic is still the best one of this type. Way to go, Singlecell!

Well, i tested it on my Android Tablet not my phone. ;)
Caustic overall is better, but this app has the better pianoroll editor.

Fair enough, I'll have a look :D

It's sad that it can't do its effects real-time, that's the easy part!

Still they've got a nice look overall, it's time to go buy a copy of the competition again...

I bought it - and tried it just for a few minutes.

Very nice look and feel on my tablet. Very responsive. It could use a better zoom function (pinch would be best) and needs to zoom in more for us old people with bad eyesight, especially on the piano roll editor - it's WAY too small for me.

Otherwise, very nice. I look forward to fixes and additions.

Mike
