Music Studio for Negative User Reviews

Close but no CigarPricey app could do with updates. Limited composition tool. Needs more time signature options. Really needs wave record/import/sampling functions. Wish I had waited until the updates were out..Version: 0

SINNER-MANTHIS IS JUST FL STUDIO WITH A MASK ON THANKS FOR NOTHING NOW I HAVE TWO MUSIC APPS THAT DO THE SAME THING.I THINK I SHOULD GET MY MONEY BACK.DONT BUY THIS APP GET FL STUDIO..Version: 2.2.1

STILL Unusable in iOS 13.1.2 on iPhone 7plus PLEASE FIX THIS!!!Please fix this so I can bring my rating up to 5 stars! Also provide inter app audio/au support please as this is normally a great app!.Version: 2.10

What happened?I used to love this app. Now it stutters like anything when recording, becomes non responsive, a bunch of instruments has disappeared that i used heavily to be replaced by synths that sound exactly the same, quantization doesn't work like it should, randomly spits out off beats, it constantly crashes while writing single instrument loops, what happened??? I'm going back to nanostudio i'm afraid you've lost me..Version: 2.0

Not good anymore want my money back!It was good -not great- before but then, here comes the updates. Before when o wanted to exit the app all I had to do was just press the home button in my phone and that was it. Now, with the last update I tried to do the same and the app stayed on working in the background, returned to the app and looked for the “exit” button and NOTHING! Look and look and look for it…….nothing!! Now I only have two options, switch to another app or another thing while the app is in the background consuming my battery and my memory or I have to turn off my phone and turn it on again. That really is annoying for me. 😡😡😡.Version: 2.11.1

Bluetooth headphones don’t workBluetooth headphones don’t work anymore on iOS 16.Version: 2.11.1

IvyЛажа непаше на iphone pro max ((((( Do not work on pro max(((( Can help ?.Version: 2.10

?Awesome but the update has caused the music I've already made to glitch out and to skip certain beats and it's not playing all of the parts together..Version: 2.4

User interface doesn’t workPlease up date I paid for this and now can’t use on my iPhone 7 . only iPhone 6 can use and iPad using iOS 10 or lower can use . Update for newer iOS please.Version: 2.10

This app needs work and it should have been done years agoNo ability to inject vibrato, sooooo important and what about tremelo? No Search capabilities. I have about 5000 song files and I cant locate what I am looking for by typing in a search word, have to scroll through the whole darn list of song projects. The program loses its settings. You select 1/8th quantitization and next you know it has switched to 1 quarter quantitization. You have to select your tracks using a finger press and hold. Why no have Selectable track option? And for all tracks a checkmark of All tracks - for select, copy, paste..Version: 2.11.1

RubbishHasn’t worked at all on iPhone in a year. I paid good money for this and it’s totally unusable. Useless. I’m going to get my money back (with in app purchases ) from Apple. Support link goes to a forum. Disgusting..Version: 2.10

Was Super!One of the best Music Making apps in iOS - sadly, now not working properly in iOS 13..Version: 2.10

IPhone XPlease update this for iPhone X. I have songs I made that I want and now they are gone forever unless you make this iPhone X compatible. Just do it already!!!!.Version: 2.10

Fix the app!!!Honestly this is the best music app with currently the most worst service no replies from the creators on fixing the app it’s pretty much unusable iv been using it for over 5 years and now because there’s a new iOS .13 my app does not work on my iPhone... So disappointed in this app I want my money back or I want it fixed please, this is effecting a lot of people..Version: 2.10

Great app, but needs a better mixerMusic Studio is a great music production software package. I’ve been using it for a couple years and have been pleased with the results. But it needs an update, more specifically it needs an updated mixer with automation. So, do I continue to wait the the update that has been promised for over a year, or do I migrate all my work to Cubasis? The limitations of mixer, especially for a final mix, is the biggest issue for an otherwise great app..Version: 2.8

HELLA NEEDS AN UPDATEIt was great while it worked... however it’s been difficult since it doesn’t work anymore. Everything is choppy and out of place like some sort of horrible abstract art and nothing works. This was my creative outlet for years, but it’s been MONTHS without an update fixing the problem. I understand these things don’t just fix up overnight, but it’s been a loooong time and I’m starting to lose hope. If possible, please at least give an estimate of when this is gonna be fixed....Version: 2.10

Fantastic, but no longer works with AirPods!!! Plz FixWith a wide selection of instruments, and what seems like an infinite amount of tools, this is easily one of my most used apps! It is fun to use, and it has almost LIMITLESS possibilities. Definitely deserves more recognition. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT! It would be nice to see a redesign for a simpler iOS 7-9 look, as well as some more instruments! The only thing it lacks is some natural sounding electric guitar sounds! It seems as of June 2023, the “bluetooth/airplay” feature is no longer working with AirPods or other wireless headphones. Upon selecting it, there is only silence, no matter what settings I change. Turning it off causes the audio to come through, but at a very grainy low quality... I know this is a very old app, but I really hope this issue is resolved as I use it a lot still! :).Version: 2.11.1

Crashes every time I try and save a sampleJust got this today. Instruments are nice. Editing notes in the piano roll is pretty ridiculous but maybe I haven’t figured it out yet that’s not my issue. The problem is every time I try and save a sample the app crashes and I’m not following the 50 step process described on the website to get a crash report. The app seems like it could be really great but not if it crashes all the time and not if I have to jump through hoops to report a problem or get help. I’m not trying to be one of those people that writes some review bashing everything about your app like I said I have high hopes for it just wish it wouldn’t crash every time I save a sample it’s pretty annoying.Version: 2.11.1

Quite goodThis is quite a nice app and I'm kind of in the process of moving over to it from Cubasis. The inbuilt instruments sound fairly good and it's easy to get ideas down quickly. The interface is a little confusing and it's not always obvious how to do things. One major issue though is that it's not possible to edit pitch bend automation. You either need to re-record - which may not be possible if you're away from your midi controller, or you may not want to if the performance was good, but you just want to have a pitch bend event start a little earlier or end a little later..Version: 2.6.5

Doesn’t support iPhone X screenPlease update your app, don’t be lazy , I paid a lot of money for this app.Version: 2.10

Broken on iOS 13As other reviewers said, this app is broken on the latest iOS on iPhone. The gui is all over the place and it’s impossible to access anything. Please fix ASAP..Version: 2.10

Effects and keyboardThe virtual keyboard is now weird when typing in file names in the project menu. Also, no way to to multiple different effects. You can either affect non-FX tracks or FX-tracks, no inbetween. Thats not good enough for real musicians who want to get in there and apply a different effect on say each track or more than 2 anyway..Version: 0

Broken since ios 13The app has been broken for a while now since ios13 released. Too bad since it was the best app for music in the app store! I would give it 5 stars again when it is fixed!!!.Version: 2.10

Virtual MIDI is a messJust upgraded and virtual MIDI is unusable. I was excited to see background audio in this release, but without reliable virtual/core MIDI it is useless. I'm trying to control it from Magellan, which works perfectly with other virtual MIDI apps like Sample Tank. C'mon guys, you have a great app which is being spoiled by a poor core MIDI implementation. Fix this and you'll get a 5 star rating..Version: 2.1

The WORST.This is the worst app I have ever used. Which is ironic because it's the most expensive. Unlike GarageBand which is intuitive and super easy to figure out I have had this app for three years and I still can figure out how to move a track! Which pretty much means you have to get it right in one take. It is not intuitive at all. Sometimes it won't let me save the song I have been working on and other times it will. There is no rhyme or reason with this app. It may have extra special bells and whistles but it fails on the most basic things! I hate it! Every time I am forced to use it by my phone not giving me the option to open a track in GarageBand I am reminded afresh how much I hate Music Studio. That's what prompted me to write this review actually. I had the misfortune of having to open it again today. I'm not a stupid person so maybe there are some clever shortcuts no one told me about but I figure if I struggle this much with this app then chances are other people will be too. I picked up GarageBand right away and can make it do anything I need it to through common sense. Music Studio is just not user friendly AT ALL. I'm hoping I can put no stars for this review but I imagine I'll have to put one to continue. Even that would be too generous..Version: 2.4.1

IPhone 11 pro max issue?!I spent money on the app and more money to get instruments and now i cant use it. It says its compatible until you open it up and all the buttons are in different places where I can’t use them and can only use the keyboard, that’s it. Hope there’s a new update for the newer phones because I really wanted to try it on my new phone. 5 stars once that happens..Version: 2.10

Update needed ios13!!!!Update please!!!.Version: 2.10

I have been waiting long enoughDear app developer, as you are not fixing the issue about the app is not working on ios 13, are you giving our money back?.Version: 2.10

Please sort issuesI used to use this every music lesson I taught in my school. Now it is completely useless.Version: 2.10

Possible glitchI love this app but it won’t open properly on my iPhone 7+, latest IOS August 28, 2020. Guess the $ I spent is down the toilet..Version: 2.10

Somehow started workingI’m not sure when it got fixed but it all opens on the iphoneXS again. Sorry to take so long to test it. It still needs some bigger touch targets on iPhone..Version: 2.11.1

Doesn’t workPaid a large amount of money for this app and now it doesn’t work at all on my iPhone and all my projects have been lost! 😡.Version: 2.10

Doesnt work on iPhoneDon’t wast your money. App no longer works on iPhone..Version: 2.10

DisappointedI’ve been using this app for 10 years. Well that was until September last year and it is now useless since iOS 13 was released. If it can be fixed, then fix it. If not, take it down from the App Store. Also a recommendation would be to make a transition option for people to use all their music studio files on Cubasis..Version: 2.10

Money wasted 😡😡😡😡I will report this app if you don’t fix or update! We have paid a lot of money for this app and my friends have the same problem! Please fix asp!!!.Version: 2.10

No update after latest IOS update!Up until the most recent update I would have left a great review, however if you have an iPhone plus it is completely unusable after the most recent update. Complaints appear to be falling on deaf ears - as there have been many others in the forum complaining trying to get answers and there is no response. No not waste your money!!! I have had this app for a couple of years but it is completely unusable now!!.Version: 2.10

Why?!?The app isn’t opening properly! Why??.Version: 2.10

Latest version now glitches during recording and playbackI’ve used music studio since it’s earliest versions, and have despaired the last few years as no real updates or the promised version 3 have materialised. Unfortunately it is now unusable as it glitches regularly during audio recording and playback too, even with all other apps stopped. This means audio recordings drop out during a glitch, and the playback skips or pauses. Do yourself a favour and get a different DAW as this one is now no longer viable..Version: 2.11

Music being Lost! Careers being Lost! Love is LostUpdate NEEDED! For the Culture! For MY CREATIVITY! This is a wonderful App! Gladly paid for it once I noticed years ago like 2010.. I enjoy making music.. help me transition my thoughts and feels.. this allowed me to do that within the comfort of my home.. My SoundCloud account is RandyDuce. I produced all my tracks for you guys app! I think it’s amazing.. give it a listen I think you will too! Inspirational!!!🎙🌏❤️.. Please give this some attention! We as artists give so much attention to our craft! Help us!!! HELP YOU! When you get the app fix.. Whoever produces there music from the app! And has great sounding music.. it a big marketing gain and exposure to other potential user! Please don’t wait to long!🙏🏾🤞🏾.Version: 2.10

Bionic14thI really love the app usually but at the moment I’m quite irritated. The app has glitched out and will not allow me to use it correctly as it opens stuck in a synthesizer. I’ve tried to find someone to contact as t about this and keep being redirected to forum sites with no contact information for me to get in touch with someone who can fix this. Very annoyed as I’ve paid for this and have done all I could to fix the issue on my end..Version: 2.10

RubbishEverything you might need has to be paid for on top of the initial payment. Absolute con..Version: 2.11

Broken App / Apathetic DeveloperThis WAS a great app for several years. The features were amazing for a mobile app and the interface was perfectly optimized for its compactness. I recorded many songs on the app, more than 300 tracks. Now I cannot even access my music. Not only has it been broken for the better part of a year, but there has been zero acknowledgement by the developers. I am rating this app 1 star, but I know they won’t care. They already have my money and have moved on to other ventures. May they burn..Version: 2.10

Good but...Very good,but crash every 10 minutes.Update change Noting..Version: 2.6.5

Seriously?Great app and all, but, I bought the full version, and I STILL have to pay for a lot of the instruments? On my old iPod, I paid for the full version and got everything right from the get-go. Now you're telling me that I still have to use money to buy things that should be in a FULL VERSION? Nice sounds and all, but that just made me mad..Version: 2.11.1

Just keeps getting better and betterUpdate: the interface is broken on my iPhone 11 pro Max :(. Hopefully an update at some point to fix it? This is the best traditional music sequencing app on the iphone, hands down. It's just like using GarageBand on the Mac. And the dev keeps adding more and more to it. The latest instruments, drum loops, and modulation control are AWESOME! I just wish I had more time to write music on it. Thank you dev for making such a great app!!.Version: 2.10

DOESNT WORK ON IPHONE!!!No updates for two years!!! Apple please remove this app!.Version: 2.10

Mixed feelings after the updateI really liked the versatility of this daw. Mostly I can connect the iPad to pc as a midi keyboard. However after the recent update, the app crashes way too often. Usually it would crash several times in a row before I can do anything, which is annoying. I hope the devs will at least fix that..Version: 2.11

IOS 13 brokenThis is a great app for music composition but sadly since the release of iOS 13 it is graphically broken and very close to unusable. Fix required! 5 star for sure when fixed..Version: 2.10

Not openingThis is great app but on iPhone 11 Pro Max its not opening g in full screen mode. The top bar is in the center and no able to use it. Please fix it..Version: 2.10

Music Library not workingHello. My son loves using this app, and he doesn’t stop using it. He creates songs on it, he records stuff, etc.. Anyways, a few years ago, he noticed that when he tried to import music from the Music Library option in the Audio area, in the latest versions, it crashed. Could you please fix this so he can import music from the Music Library folder anytime, without it crashing? Thank you, and have a good rest of your week..Version: 2.11.1

Glitched and brokenJust like all the other reviews, im having the same issue where i open the app and it just shows the keyboard and nothing else works. Please update and fix, tried redownloading it and it still doesn’t work. I’ll change the rating once the developers fix this issue, OR REFUND AND TAKE THE APP DOWN IF YOU’RE NOT GONNA LET US USE OR UPDATE IT OR LAWSUIT IS COMING YOUR WAY.Version: 2.10

IOs 13Does not work anymore after iOS update! The developer should be ahead of the game and not lagging behind. We paid money for the program and now it is useless!!.Version: 2.10

Don’t trade in your laptop just yetOf course it would be awesome to simply use my phone to create music so why not risk the $15 to see what these apps can do. It turns out that they don’t do much in my opinion and the sounds are essentially basic, closer to the old general midi sounds in outdated workstations. I’ll stick to using my SONY and REASON software but nothing ventured, nothing gained but realistically I’m out of $15 because I’ll probably never really find any use for this app or any other music creating apps offered because they simply lack in range and scope. Save your $15 for a pizza instead.Version: 2.10

Uncompatible.Why ? This app has not fixed the compatibility to newer iPhone about long long time, no any attempt to release update patches..Version: 2.10

If they ever update this I will change my reviewI’ve had this app since release. Was fabulous and now NO SUPPORT AT ALL! I paid for the app and all the in apps and now no support or anything. I will change review when the app is usable again. Was one of my faves but now not usable on iOS 13. Please update and don’t let all your supporters be left out in the cold..Version: 2.11.1

Great Virtual Library of Basic Instruments and SoundsI had the full version of this app already installed on my iPad 3 Although now a relic still did work flawlessly as I had it plugged in and connected up to my akai synth station especially designed for the iPad 3 which also worked flawlessly as well But after having refreshed as well as deleted a few apps that weren't being used to make my ageing iPad as effectively efficient as possible Upon reinstalling could only install the lite version and not the full version Having a pathetic notification telling me that my iPad were no longer compatible Even although there were already a download cloud icon saying that I were able too I'm getting sick of Apples greedy money grabbing tactile ways of software updates and new old hash remakes of what's already been around for generations in order to inevitably outdate there own pre existing iPhones ,iPads Mac,s or Mac books Next thing they'll be bringing back the all in ones same as when Samsung had the original contracts to manufacture such and labelling it as the best thing since Google or Tik Tok to all those whom literally wouldn't know any better and are still yet to learn.Version: 2.11.1

Needs to be updated to support new IOSI used to use this app all the time and I loved it. But now when I use it with my new iPhone XS, it barely works and you can’t go in and create your “master pieces”. At this point it is an over glorified piano app that says that advertises that you may create your own music, but you can’t. Please fix this problem so that we the people may enjoy your guys creation. Other than that, this is probably the best music app for mobile devices. Thanks for the effort you put into it..Version: 2.10

Unable to upload to soundcloudHave used this for years But now unable to upload to Soundcloud Any updates?.Version: 2.11.1

A date, an estimate, ANYTHINGThe app is amazing... when it works. As of iOS13, it does not. My main reason for writing this review is to get ANY sort of timeframe for when an update might come out. I believe I saw in another review that you do indeed have plans for "the future, but not the near future". PLEASE tell me what this means. If it means tomorrow, great! If it means in three months, great! If it means in two years, that's... not great, but the info would be appreciated! Any sort of time estimate would be great. This is the best piano/midi/music making app I've ever seen. It woudl be a shame to lose it..Version: 2.10
