VocaLive CS for Negative User Reviews
✓ Idi nahuiVery bad interface, Very Bad Interface, VERY BAD INTERFACE Fix!.Version: 2.0.2
✓ 0 starsI've just really had it with these app dev companies that are negligent when it comes to (not) explicitly stating what the free version does and doesn't do. In this case, the free version does literally nothing but demand payment to unlock features. It does nothing. Nothing. It's really just unethical so while I very well might have purchased otherwise as I am a pro musician who dabbles in iOS on the road composing, IK MultiMedia has lost the prospect of my business for failing to be dutiful to detail the limitations of the free app. Transparency, IK MultiMedia, not BS games..Version: 2.0.3
✓ Doesn’t work with GarageBandI really like the app. The problem is: it is supposed to work with GarageBand, but it doesn’t!!! Every time that I try to record I lose all audio. It is buggy when you use it as an inter-app effect. I did pay for the upgrade, but it is not worth it. Not until the fix the compatibility issue. I am unable to use the app for the purpose that I paid for it. I want my money back!.Version: 3.0.1
✓ Not intuitiveThey make you sign up for an account to view the user manual, which is completely backwards. I ended up deleting the app..Version: 3.0.3
✓ It’s been over 3yrsUpdate VocaLive it’s a priority app also ridiculous it’s taking you this long.Version: 3.0.3
✓ App have cracking sound issue with iOS 16.2I am using this app with iOS 16.2 but there is a sound issue using effects. I don’t know how long they will take to fix this issue. Real-time sound effects have random voice issues..Version: 3.1.0
✓ LesDown loaded this app today....not user friendly Distortion on playback ....cannot get it function On all setting...tried to get into help won't accept my pass I'd ...quote the one I used to pay for the dam app...not happy..les.Version: 2.0.3
✓ PityCrashes constantly-was interested in full app but not now.Unusable as is.Version: 1.0
✓ ConfusedJust wish I could get it to record..Version: 1.6
✓ There are bad apps...and then thereIt's almost impossible to adequately describe how horrible this app is. Not only is it frustrating to pull recorded tracks off the iPod and into iTunes to possibly burn onto a CD, but the so-called user manual is of no assistance. And speaking of assistance, when you finally do reach someone at the company to help, they tell you that tech support is outsourced and can only be accessed by e-mail. The microphone works well, but what good does that do if you can't access what you've recorded..Version: 1.0
✓ Does not restore in-app purchasesI reinstalled and logged in with the same account and when I tried to restore my in-app purchases it CHARGED IT A SECOND TIME..Version: 1.0.1
✓ You have to register just to access the help.No idea how to use app and you have to register to view the help. No thanks now deleting..Version: 3.1.0
✓ Such a bad appWe can't add backing track and sing alone that track.. Disappointed ...! I just bought a irig mic. It's useless now..Version: 1.6.1
✓ Why won’t it work anymore!!! 😡For the last two weeks, when I go to open the app, it loads, then cuts itself out taking me back to my phone menu. Can some explain to me what in the haaaaam sandwich is going on?.Version: 3.0.3
✓ Zero starsThis app is impossible to use. It's difficult to figure out how to apply Fxs. And even when you've paid for extra effects - and spent 45 minutes trying to figure out how to apply them - a quick check of the record option confirms that they don't actually apply an effect to the vocal at all. You might as well record in the voice memo app. Oh and the "karaoke" option? Sure you can upload a song into the app but it doesn't take the vocals out. Bottom line? This app is complete crap. I want my money back..Version: 2.0.2
✓ This app was great...at first:(Now I’m really annoyed it won’t let me get back in,everytime i Open the app it closes😡it’s unreliable and I’m so disappointed I always have to reinstall the app for it to work again and end up losing all of my songs ,FIX IT please!!!!!.Version: 3.0.3
✓ New update made the app crashAfter the new update the app crashes as soon as you launch it..Version: 3.0.3
✓ Fail!It won't record !!! Should definitely come with some instructions....Version: 1.5
✓ RubbishI couldn't find how to play my recordings and it drained my battery :(.Version: 1.0.1
✓ Horrible, gave me a heart attack!Started the app, just made a horrid noise, sang into it but my voice drowned out the sound coming out of the speaker and then all sound stopped, for the whole iPhone! Only after cold reboot did I get my sound back, trashed it straight away..Version: 1.0
✓ Good app but very noisyI've used this on my iPhone 6S Plus and my iPad. The app functionality is great but sadly I find I get lots of noise/hiss. I'm using it with an iRig Stomp. As soon as I kick the pedal on, the hiss appears. If I close the app or kick the pedal off, the hiss goes away. Perhaps a free noise gate effect or option would help?.Version: 2.0.3
✓ Kool Kidz Icon!!!You get 5 stars when the icon changes. It looks like a bunch of 90s moms made this app icon to deter their children from smoking or something. It's a Chucky Cheese icon. It conjures imagery of Jazzy Jeff and denim vests. I hate this icon, it is a nightmare. Many celebrities have made mention that they think the app is good, but the icon is frightful. The president has signed a bill into law that you must make a better icon. The app is good, except the keyboard is super low-res. get it iOS8ier. I would like to see a more sophisticated noise filter. Otherwise, the app is a flash of human brilliance an amazing step forward in mobile musicianship. I love it. This icon is agony. Gigantic! Gigantic! Gigantic! A big, big love!.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Awesome APP but...To get rid of help bubbles i pressed "?"-worked for me. I have problem with recording after update with standard mic. Lost volume when recording. Now I have to set input as 11 and record volume on track at 1. Results are not that great. I have been using this app for over 1 yr and payed for 8 track in app purchase. I am disappointed after sending 2 emails to IK I got NO reply. Please fix and update again! I truly love the app the way it was before..Version: 2.0.1
✓ What happened??This app was really good but after the iphone update the mic has a terrible popping static noise going on and it gets worse when you turn on the fx, haven’t found any way to fix the issue, i’ve even swapped headphones and mics and it still there. pls fix this issue cuz this app was really good and its not fair to be paying $25 if it’s gonna make a horrid popping noise :(.Version: 3.1.0
✓ Engine is GREAT / User interface needs workFirst thing is first: CHANGE THE ICON. I passed this app over for months and months because I didn't want to download something that wouldn't help me as a songwriter. Whoever wrote the program's engine is the real hero. Ultra low latency, great lush effects and I love the ability to save your own presets. Possibly the beat engine out of all the other apps I've been downloading for the last 2 years. However, the interface needs some serious work in the navigation and chaining of effects. I can't figure out the relationship between the favorites and the presets. The screen I'm in doesnt tell me. Bottom line, the navigation needs work and maybe the entire interface needs a refresh to be taken more seriously. Its gotta start with that barbie doll / American idol wanna-be icon. Rip a page out of Sonoma wireworks 4 track app. It's nice and clean and at the end of the day, simplicity with a great engine wins, not just one or the other. Market this as an alternative to Sonoma's 4 track recorder and they'll finally have some competition..Version: 1.0
✓ Not 2 goodVery hard to use.Version: 1.0
✓ Amazing however soon disappointedThe whole concept of the app is fab! Amazing for first timers, I enjoyed experimenting with it so much that within an hour I had spent £1.99 on the extra overlays. However when I returned to work on my piece a bit more just a few hours later I was very disappointed to find that my bought extras we're no longer available. I am not aware why this is and I was not told this was the case. I would like to think maybe I am not using the app correctly as it can be confusing at first however I have looked at all possibilities and I have not received the extras that I have paid for..Version: 1.6.1
✓ UghhhhI just wish I can export what I recorded makes things so much easier -_-.Version: 1.6
✓ Not a great appI bought the irig mic . The first 2 days i was so excited; however, after that and after spending about 80$ I found out about 2 big problems. First, if you don't use headphones and plug in a stereo, there are lots of radio noises( like chinese or japanese radio fm). The other issue is the low quality of the recorded song, which is terrible. If the company care and fix these problems, I'll definitely go for 5 stars. But for now 1 star is the best rate i can give..Version: 1.0.1
✓ No effect?The free version claims to include one effect, reverb, but it doesn't work at all. How are we meant to sample this app if the only effect to sample doesn't work?.Version: 1.5
✓ Wont workUrrg wont record!!.Version: 1.0
✓ GrrrrrrrrrrrAfter purchasing the iRig mic I downloaded vocalive and after several weeks of working out how to use it and record my vocals over tracks, oh and paying for all the extra bits you have to buy to make it sound half decent, it has now decided to crash or not load everytime. This is a great app but needs improving which with all the add ons you have to pay for, you would think they would be on top of this. Please sort out issues so I can give the vocalive a proper review..Version: 1.0
✓ New update = failureKeeps crashing and them white boxes with writing in is annoying please fix this ASAP.Version: 2.0
✓ PeaceWhy is there static when I connect it to GarageBand? Lose the static..it could be a five star..Version: 3.0.3
✓ With iPhone 14pro pitch effects not workingCrashing and noisy.Version: 3.1.0
✓ Fix this Issue for me PleaseHello I’ve been using this app for some time now & I would like to give it 5 stars , but after switching from my iPhone 7 to an iPhone 12 the Pitch Correction doesn’t work at all can you fix this bug ASAP !! Thanks ..Version: 3.1.0
✓ Useful, but has issuesJust like to say I do like this app, it's very useful for trying out ideas and has plenty of effects (some you have to purchase) which other 4 tracks available on the app store don't. I don't find it crashes very often but my main issue is the way the effects freeze up so you can't get in to change the settings, leading to quitting the app, closing it properly like mentioned in other reviews and trying again, but this dosent even always work and I've had to restart my phone sometimes. If this was fixed I would be much happier with it - update please!.Version: 1.0
✓ AwfulReally clunky interface that is basically just a data mine. Won't export to iTunes which renders it useless and won't show the manual until you give them your email address so they can spam you. Disgusting business practise and a frustrating user experience. Wishing I hadn't bought their hardware and I'll certainly never spend another penny with these crooks..Version: 1.6.1
✓ Irec mic don't works !!!!I did have some reaction of the mic once, but now I'm having a hard time to make it work into the app. No that user friendly. Well from a father who wants his 9 years old daugther to sing..Version: 1.6.1
✓ Warning short reviewHorrible.Version: 1.0.1
✓ App is crapRecording doesn't record anything. Epic fail..Version: 1.0.1
✓ Pretty Good,but!(Warning,long review!)Well I finally downloaded App-I've been stuck without PC for ages & no wi-fi so I couldn't get it till a few days ago. I was quite excited,but wary,as I'd read reviews talking of "glitches"& "crashes". So..almost as soon as it loaded-it got stuck!-I couldn't access the 1effect(reverb)that comes with. I was fearing the worst,&didn't really think the "free effect on registration"would even arrive. Well,it did,&with a bit of fiddling about-turning phone on&off etc,etc-I'd sussed out most of the features&got them working. It sounds good-& will be much better with mic,and looks cool too-apart from icon,see below! The app though IS v glitchy-it doesn't shut itself down properly-The only time u know it's definitely going to work is when you see the (vile-Xfactor!)opening shot of ott female vocalist&you see the little wheel thing spinning on screen. THEN it works fine-until you exit app(there's no option to quit,y just have t press home screen button)BUT-when u quit &then go back to app you don't see the "horrid singer"you just land in the middle of the app with selection options frozen/stuck. This happens time&again until it crashes-Only THEN can you open it from beginning ! This is obviously infuriating&needs fixing-as does the overpricing of the "in app purchases"-£1.79 for a 3band graphic,seems a lot to me-&why are a couple of the effects £2.99?-they must have been much harder to make-I don't think! To make sure the app fully closes,I came across some USEFUL INFORMATION online-about ALL apps on iPhone When you exit an App,to make sure it's fully closed,double click Home Screen button to reveal Apps-in a line across bottom of screen. THEN,press &hold app icon until it "wiggles"-you will see a RED CIRCLE with a "-"in it. Touch this and the app disappears -DON'T WORRY!-it's not deleted,&you'll find it just where you left it on home screen. All it means is that the App is fully closed. Doing the above after using Vocalive will mean that next time you use,it'll open from start &it seems to fix the"freezing" -I've tried it a few times now& I'm now more confidant that app will work smoothly- As I've (lengthily!)said,any messing about is b***dy annoying,& needs fixing. I'd be even more annoyed if I'd forked out £11.99 for the(ahem!)"full" app. I like the app,but come on IK,you've been teasing us with adds for months about "V"-you've got to get these problems-&prices!-sorted. Oh yes, the emailing of mix works well-if anyone's still reading!! Phew,I've got that off my chest! .Version: 1.0
✓ IPad app pleaseSomething that can copy and paste to apples garage band for iPad.Version: 1.0
✓ FeedbackAuto-tune could be made a little bit better. App wont close when i click out of it, so i have to switch off my itouch. I see there has been new changes and updates to this app. I see it is still having truble with it. Please continue to update it! Thank u.Version: 2.0
✓ Giving me a hard time since Update with mixer last yearEver since the update with the new mixing system with this app, I have not been able to use vocalive free the way I use to.. It's been since the summer. This app would freeze and I would hear distortion while recording and playing back the track I've recorded.. Evening upgrading to a new device, I was still having problems. This app was updated recently, so, I thought this app would work better knowing it's now compatible with IOS 8. But, sadly, I still have the same problems.. Doing what Customer service told me as well didn't work either.. I am giving up on this app.. 😞.Version: 2.0.2
✓ Erm….Records…but can you export it to another device/cloud from your iPhone. NO!.Version: 1.6
✓ Rip off registrationRegistration process will fail when you make in app purchases or multiple device purchases. you will be ripped off by this greedy company. Support is nonexistent..Version: 3.0.1
✓ App crashesI would’ve given this app a higher rate if it weren’t for the fact that this app spontaneously crashes. It’s super annoying. especially when you have recordings that you like on it. you will lose them eventually..Version: 3.0.3
✓ Do not use if you're looking for simple work around.Downloaded this app to try out the reverb. Was not intuitive to use and the interface was a mash up of pop up speech bubbles directing you to select certain functions I didn't need. Extremely difficult to use and very confusing. Avoid..Version: 2.0.3
✓ Not the Vocalive app used to be after IOS 15That’s the honest truth, after the IOS15 update Vocalive app either for iphone or ipad it’s a mess… a lot of crashes, lagging, damaged files at downloading/uploading, unable to play songs downloaded on iphone because the songs are playing faster. Sadness.Version: 3.1.0
✓ HmmmCan't get rid of the damn help bubbles. Can't see the program and what I'm doing, even after I'm purchased effects etc..Version: 2.0.2
✓ This app and ongoing issues sucksI paid over $30 for the app plus for extra add ons. It stopped working and was very difficult to resolve. Now with Apple iOS 15 they say it is incompatible and are not responding to emails. I would suggest using another app. Mine will not even open and a lot of work is inaccessible..Version: 3.0.3
✓ Will this app gonna get an update?I like this app but it seems like it stopped working after the iOS 14 and iOS 15 upgrade..Version: 3.0.3
✓ Won’t ope on IPhone 13.Cannot open the app on iPhone 13..Version: 3.1.0
✓ Unstable, but still goodThree stars for now guys. The app is pretty good, and the sound quality with the iRig Mic is perfect for sample gathering and ad hoc songwriting, podcasting and so on. It's not very stable at the moment though. several times today it's dumped me out to the home page when I've tried to select and effect or a preset. Hopefully that's something simple to fix. It's annoying, but not the end of the world :).Version: 1.0
✓ Super jankyIt distorts and doesn't work well with any other apps outside of vocalive itself.. Literally useless. Beyond regretful I spent money on this app. Don't be like me..Version: 3.1.0
✓ HmmmSeemed good to start with, nice UI, sounds good - then started crashing. A bit flakey. Shame to be stuck with the "free" app name once you purchase effects; should offer discounted purchase of full app..Version: 1.0
✓ LolThe no voice button just muffles song.Version: 1.0
✓ One Big DisappointmentI wasn't expecting too much of this but since the iRig blurb suggested that the Choir feature was included that was disappointment number 1. Disappointment no 2 came when running the setup in my studio in order to write this review... after five minutes, the few features it does come with stopped working completely. No reverb, no double, no voice trainer, not even the demo. Its not my setup or cabling - Garage Band worked fine right after from the same iPad2. I suspect there are major flaws in this and advise anyone to wait awhile and let the tech develop some more. I'm hopeful that the iRig mic and cable will work with other, better, software - if not its headed back to the maker for a refund..Version: 1.0.1
✓ Demo problemsI really like this app, unfortunately the reverb stopped working for no reason. I would hope this would be a huge concern to a potential buyers like myself. I would have spent the 20$ as this is well worth it, but until something is done about the bugs, and glitches I cannot justify it. FYI the reverb would not work no matter what I did. I tried every setting in the app nothing. I closed and restarted the app several times nothing. Restarted my iphone4 nothing. The only thing to bring back the reverb was to delete, and reinstall the app..Version: 1.0
✓ Not working for ios 15Please update Because is not working,.Version: 3.0.3
✓ Pitch fix not workingI have my apple earphones plugged into my Iphone 8 plus. when pitch fix is on, it isn’t doing anything. how can i fix this? (i know it isn’t the earphones because i plugged it into my brothers phone and worked perfectly on the app) thanks.Version: 3.0.3
✓ Omg what did you do?!I have been using this app since 2011. This is the free app, but I had purchased all the add-ons after I tried out the free app. All effects except the autotune. And I've been using it successfully and I loved it. The update with the full studio in 2014 created a very big problem with singing on more than one track--like if you wanted to double your voice the real way--which is the only way that I ever do it. Some kind of random muting would happen on any track that was not the track that you had selected to arm with you armed it or not (on every device--I have used different models of ipod, iphone, and ipad). I tried to get you to fix it and instead you put out this update that is for guys with a sh&tload of engineering experience! Why? The only people that used your app were people like me who just wanted to get their voice on a track that was already mixed. And now I have no idea how to use it and no matter what I do it sounds like sh&t. It won't blend (which it did beautifully before), it feeds back very easily and so you have to pull the high-end off and turn it down, the drop off on the built-in mic is miniscule (it used to sound great). I have no idea why you think that somebody is going to use your app who would use GarageBand or some other thing like ProTools. Nobody is going to do that! Now you've lost all chances of having people use your app because the guys who need full recording abilities are going to find problems and limitations with your app and that it is just not good enough for them. And the people like me, who need to be able to just plug in and go, can't use it because we're not engineers and you've made it ridiculously complicated! Now I've got to find something else to use, and now I got to give you a really crappy rating. And on every place that I've ever posted any of my songs, I've always told people what I use and how great and easy it was. And now I will go back and tell them not to use it and how horrible it is. I'm the one that contacted you about the problem with the random muting on tracks when trying to add a harmony or to double my voice if you'd like to know who this is. You could've just put this out as a completely separate app and marketed it to people who are looking for something complex and semi pro. This is no longer for singers! Change the name, because it is no longer strictly a vocal app. SINGERS!! Do NOT use this. Do NOT download the free one. You won't have good results and you will find it very complicated and UNUSABLE unless you are a singer with a lot of engineering experience. And if someone leaves a good review, they are either lying, or they haven't actually tried it, or they're not just a singer--they have engineering experience. And they probably never used the original app. I, on the other hand, actually know what this app could do and I actually used it all the time and I actually used it for almost 5 years. So if you think for one second that I'm just being a whiner or complainer, I'm not, because this was the best thing that I had ever found. And now I have to find something else--and so should you..Version: 3.0.0
✓ In Laymen's Terms.....Saw it, got it, deleted it.....nuff sed really..Version: 1.0
✓ Update!!!ITS A SHAME YALL HAVE NOT UPDATED THIS APP IN YEARS!!!!! PLEASE UPDATE!!!!!!!.Version: 3.1.0
✓ ConfusingI put an iTunes song on then press record put when I press play all I heard was me!! No music! Am I doing something wrong?????.Version: 1.0.1
✓ Used to love thisBut I’m done now. Playback is hideously garbled - so it’s rendered this app useless..Version: 3.1.0
✓ Apps crash alwaysWhen I use this in free it work with limited functions. Then I bought 38 dollars for those effect and it work a bit unti my phone and ipad upgrade os ver. 15.1 then this app not work anymore. Its a waste of money..Version: 3.0.3
✓ In-app purchase warningThe app is prone to crash and have bugs but it functions in a useful way. I never had a problem until I purchased the recorder in-app purchase (as I didn't want the full app and only that one feature). The app loaded my purchase and it was fine, however, when I closed out of the app and opened it back up again, the recorder feature was gone and it was asking me to buy the feature again. Wow, thanks for that! All of the in-app purchases are starting to reek of scam. Be wary with this app..Version: 2.0
✓ Ok-ishCrashes too often!! Also, will only buy the full version when u fix the crashing, lower the price down to at least £9.99 (which includes the 4 track recorder) and being able to export your finished files. FULL STOP!!.Version: 1.0
✓ Where's iPad app?So OK, just bought the iRig mic to use with my iPad, but what a bummer - there's no iPad app. Sorry guys, but whats the point using this app on iPad (on your site you state that its compatible with iPad) just to have tiny user interface when there's all that available space. Bad, very bad. Specially knowing that it doesn't take a lot to redesign graphics for iPad..Version: 1.0
✓ Not working on iPhone 5Low quality a/d transducers resulting in a high hiss at least on my 3GS because on my iPhone 5 it's just not working. Need an update fast..Version: 1.0.1
✓ HmmApp keeps crashing and says unable to connect .. For it's own reasons. hope this app has a update ~ also would be cool to e-mail the songs that are made .. Oh and why not watch a short video to collect points to unlock effects hmm that's a good ideal yea?, well hope this app works soon! ;).Version: 1.0.1
