Launchpad - Music & Beat Maker for Positive User Reviews

Launch padHas been a while since it first released and the updates and sounds are exactly how I remembered the classic hip hop melodies and catchy drm beats this app has the packs and the right configuration and the overall quality of making music is a very user friendly and easily the overall usability is second to none effective and the best app for this type of producing and always links to your abelton live 10..Version: 7.14.1

Serious FunLaunchpad has such completely intuitive controls that you’re able to start creating awesome sounding material before you know it. As well as being easy and fun to use, the ability to record, download new sound packs and connect with other devices via Ableton make this app a serious music-making instrument..Version: 7.7.2

CoolSo good at at making beats😍.Version: 11.13.2

Awesome appEasy to use for people that don’t know anything about music.Version: 11.8

The app is Awesome, but this might or might not be goodIt is awesome but I think it might be better if their was a piano roll because then the music can become more unique and also plugins like fl studio. Unless it is meant to be more for beginners and not too complex so the loops are still really awesome though. Please may you also maybe be able to make a connection available to connect to ableton live and continue your song on their please because that might make the song that you recorded more advanced when it is edited in the piano roll, when it has had some filtering, some plugins, and automation and more things like that the song could sound even more awesome but then you also still might be able to buy and get free sound packs that you can download. Thank you 😀 this would be awesome I think, but I am not sure if you will like it though Thank you for your time 😀 if you look at this review..Version: 7.0.2

Massive!I have had this on my iPad for quite a while and it has been just brilliant. An absolute breeze to use and I have used it for live performances which went down a storm. Lots of add ons for pennies and a very generous amount of free packs. There are also some very usable effects and add ins etc that are all a breeze to use and none of it breaks the bank. I have created some very listenable and momentous songs that I can listen to over and over and now I can do it on my phone. I am running an old 2016 iPhone SE with 4 inch screen and I have not been dissapointed! It works just as beautifully as on the IPad and the small screen really doesn’t make a lot of difference. There are so many features to tweak, add, share and create, for me it is enough and my party friends just love it. You, the creators of this app should be congratulated, it’s a masterpiece and I have had so much from it for paper round money! Awesome! I have a few Novation hardware/ software gadgets and they are all exceptional and I didn’t have to risk being a bank robber to get them. There aren’t enough stars to do justice to a review. You rank amongst most used and enjoyed app. Apple should give you pedestal!.Version: 8.6.1

EasyEasy to make your own beats. Recommend it to everyone.Version: 1.6.1

The best app everOMG! This is the best music app ever! So many samples, so many features, so much fun. I could lose my social life from playing this app, it’s so hard to stop playing it! Definitely the best music app out there to create your own songs..Version: 7.6

Sounds the bestYou can make the best Music.Version: 11.11.1

Another immediate and inspiring app from AmpifyThis is one of the musical apps that I use everyday in my line of work because of the great loops on offer and most importantly, the ability to mix and match with your own loops within the app. Some suggested improvements for the developers: 1- in the editing mode, the ability to easily move the pads to reorganise them within the grid, 2- the ability to transfer a project from one iPad to another in the same way you can with GarageBand with Airdrop, 3- the ability to duplicate a project on the same iPad as you can with GB again. At the moment, if you edit an existing Soundpack, when saved it will erase the original and there no easy way to restore the original afterwards. It would also be nice to increase the range of effects on offer and to be able to apply effects to specific pads and not simply on the main mix..Version: 11.1.6

CoolCool.Version: 6.3

Fantastic app but...Unless I’m missing something, there’s still no way to move projects between different iOS devices. In other words, there’s no way to start working on my iPhone and then pick up on my iPad. This app desperately needs iCloud syncing. I can bounce a project from Wave to Launchpad but somehow can’t go from Launchpad to Launchpad. Also, the store navigation experiences are completely different among Launchpad, Wave, and Groovebox. Things like the menu and store should be unified across all three apps. Also, there needs to be integration between Groovebox and Launchpad and Wave. Currently, my work is siloed in Groovebox. Lastly, for playing back recordings in Launchpad, it desperately needs background audio playback and precise standardized playback controls - pause, fast forward, rewind, etc. Right now, if I close the screen or move to another app during playback of my recordings, it completely stops the song and I have to restart it from the beginning. It’s extremely frustrating when I’m trying to listen to what I just did and have to constantly restart from the beginning of the track..Version: 7.6.7

Lunch PadIs a great app to make new instrumental music for the song I'm currently working on, I just finished the recording I’m gonna use for it and it sounds great, I’m actually impressed with how it turned out and I’m sure it has huge potential for a new single to hit the charts.

Launchpad, It’s good but has problems.The software works ok on the ipad or iPhone but downloading soundpacks is a problem. I recently purchased a sound pack but then found it would not download onto my iPhone. This problem stops me buying any further sound packs. Very disappointing..Version: 11.11.1

Best beats to vibe tooAs an artist I love the simplicity that this app brings it gives you a way to stay ahead of your creative flow and allows you to grow and learn from other talented amazing creative minds ❤️❤️.Version: 11.1.6

This is amazing I just love how you can create different beatDownload now to be even cooler and popular.Version: 11.11.4

BEST APP EVA!This is the most professional app for djing I've ever used. It's so good, I use it to make all my professional songs! Thank you so much novation, it's the best! If only launchkey was as good.... (add a recording button for it!).Version: 1.17.1

BEST APP EVER😜😜 (in my opinion)Hiiii your probs trying to find some advice on this app this is helping me bc I want to be a track writer and a song writer and this is helping me find a beat to use😄😺I suggest this to people who love music (me) and love to explore different beats in music😛😛 I hope you agree with what I have said and this will help with your desision🙂GOOOOOD BYYYYYE P.S:You can record the tracks of music you make to your welcome 🐶🐱🐭🐹🐰🦊🐻🐼🐨🐯🦁🐮🐷🐸🐵🐔🐧🐦🐤🐴🐗🐺.Version: 7.17.2

I want to see my sounds I usedLove the app, I have one problem. Once I stop playing a sound, I forget which sounds I used. Could you make it so that when you click on a recording, you can see which sounds you used. Thanks.Version: 7.8.2

InsaneThis app is really cool if you want to be a dj at parties or just having fun by yourself but one downside is that ampify removed all of the older packs from 2012 and i really wish they were back cause i really miss them but apart from that everything is great even the blocs wave to launchpad export feature is really cool but please bring back the older packs..Version: 11.13.3

GreatUpdate: Upgrade Banner appears to have been removed - thanks. Great app, works really well - but can you please give me an option to remove the Really Annoying Upgrade to Premium Banner on the home page! You make it quite clear elsewhere within the app that there is an Upgrade to Premium option, I don’t need a bright yellow banner on the home page as a constant reminder. Looking forward to seeing a remove option soon..Version: 10.7.3

How to improve an app that is already amazingSo, as you can gather from this review’s title and rating, I think that this app is great. However, it’s got one rather big flaw which in my opinion hold it back. Why can you not delete unnecessary recordings? My hand almost never presses on the iPad screen in the right place, and I must have upwards of 50MB worth of these unneeded 30sec samples, and I downloaded this app less than a week ago. Edit: I apologise for my stupidity. I have got rid of all my unnecessary samples, except for one. I have recently encountered a glitch which is preventing me from being able to delete any of my in-app recordings. Every time I swipe left, the ‘delete’ button appears, but then it goes back off-screen to the right and the app freezes.Version: 11.11.4

Love itLove love love this app, and looks even better now it has had a complete refresh. As a complete non musician this is just great fun way to play with tools that pro's use and make some amazing sound come out of your speakers...and a great way to spend some time on a plane.Version: 7.0

Great toy to play withBy no means am I a composer, but I love beats. What a diverse app to express your inner music abilities. Top notch!.Version: 1.10

Just friggin love itLaunchpad embodies exactly what iPads and software were meant to be: a way to abstract complexity and give total beginners super powers with almost an instantaneous sense of accomplishment / further encouragement. And yet at the same time this is not simply a beginners tool, after just barely scratching the surface of what it can do, you can get up and running quickly and build up as far as you desire from there. Basically the first time I’ve written a review.. it’s that good!.Version: 7.16

It’s goodIt’s super fun to use and even when your first starting out with it it’s not like those other fancy apps where there’s buttons over and over there that do this and that, it’s super simple and easy to figure out with hardly any effort.Version: 7.14.1

It Just Keep's Getting BetterThis Is the only music creation software app you need for your iPad/iPhone. It’s been around for a few years now but with new sound packs being released almost weekly it never gets stale. There’s a few apps on the apple store that are clones of Launchpad but don’t waste your money they are pale imitations..Version: 8.0.1

Amazing but just one thingThis app is amazing but I wish there was a search feature so you can find soundpacks easier, as it is quite hard to locate some specific packs. But overall this app is amazing and has nothing else I need to say..Version: 11.5

Amazingly creative!!!I just did a long haul flight and ran my ipad battery down playing launchpad. Absolutely amazing app. 1 feature request. When pressing the tempo button, can it also display the key please? When using the ableton live function I keep having to go into the sound pack store to determine the key of the sound pack to key match with other apps..Version: 6.3.7

Brilliant & PolishedThis is so well made all the features are smooth as hell, it is just so easy and fun to use! My one criticism is that I really wish I could get more out of this app. It is the best DJ soundboard app I’ve ever found, and as a kid I can’t just spend money on apps whenever I want so I really wish that not every other music genre is locked behind a paywall. Other than that, really good..Version: 11.12

Amazing but a few suggestions…With launch pad you only get 1 kit if you don’t want to spend money, with a lot of apps they make it trashy so you spend money but not launch pad. The kit that they give you is very good, it has many options that you can use. Although the kit is good it’s not good enough to produce music. I got this originally to play around with but there’s not every instrument. In the first kit you get it has about 2-4 sound effects, maybe 4 instruments total. Bass, drums, something, something. I would recommend this to play around with for fun but not to produce music. But I guess this is what you get for a free app..Version: 11.0.1

Pretty fine :)This is an edit of my last review. Another song got deleted, but I understand that you might not be able to fix this, and anyway, I feel like this app is more for DJ live mixes and stuff then for releasing as music. This app is great and I recommend it to you :D.Version: 9.5

Would RecommendThis app is overall a great concept for scratchers and beatmakers to start out with, although there are a few things that I think should be changed, improved and added; -More free pad themes -An option to add your own sounds to add to pads (authorized sounds) -Change colors and background themes (white background theme, category colours) Thank you for reading this review :).Version: 9.7

Creativity in a boxThis app helps you to create and gives you ideas with a touch of a button please take a look.Version: 7.15.1

Clever stuffIt’s a very clever way of pitch and time shifting while mixing any sounds stored together seamlessly. I have mad a bunch of tracks using Launchpad as a template and finishing it all off in a DAW. I genuinely can’t fault this app and the sound packs (if you want to use them) are added regularly. Not only that but you can add your own and they will be pitch and time shifted perfectly too when you change tempo or key and it can all be done live. It’s very clever stuff..Version: 9.7

Five-star customer serviceI found that I had a small issue accessing previously purchased packs on one tablet, so left an otherwise glowing review with just the four stars. Within days the devs had got back to me with a workaround- and it worked! Here then are the five stars due, not least for an app that, while clearly aimed at people less than half my age, unfailingly comes up with just the backbeat I need for some homemade instrument nonsense of my own....Version: 7.7.2

Awesome but help!I accidentally clicked sign out now I cannot upload to YouTube! Please make a sign in button!.Version: 6.1

OMG THIS SHOULD GET APP OF THE DECADENever has been travelling to school been so much fun for my Kids. Each child has an absolute hoot making music to groove whilst being stuck in traffic. Also so good for my love of music making now I can music for my drone videos. I love it Can we please have a COUNTER at the top of the screen so I can see how long my music is playing for AND or recording for. A lot of my time is spent making music and having a ball and then realising that I’ve been going for 6 minutes to long on a track. Thanks for an amazing APP guys.Version: 7.5

AmazingIn my opinion one of the best music making apps ever.Version: 7.15.1

Launch pad launching with excitement#THIS GAME IS THE BEST !!!!!!! Here is my story so i got a new ipad from my dad and when he gave it to me he had already downloaded a bunch of cool apps one of these apps were launch pad and i was like “what on earth is this” so i clicked on it and when i clicked on it my little mind was blown. There are so many cool things to do on it and before i tell you what you can do on this app i just want to tell you incase you don’t know just to clear this out this is a music app anyways you can chose what sort of music you want then click on the different sounds and finally you record your music plus, plus, plus your music will keep on playing even if you go on a different app This review was written by mrs. App critic.Version: 7.16

Perfect but...Why is there no Ableton Live Set export? Bloc Wave has it, which is great. Would be perfect if I was able to export Launchpad straight to Ableton exactly like you can do with Blocs Wave..Version: 7.6.8

👌It works well and it is easy to use. Doesn’t take up too much space and it doesn’t crash..Version: 7.6.7

GeniusI’ve been using this app for 6 years. The sound packs are so unique and creative that you get so much more than just what your looking for. Customizing your own pack using different samples is a breeze. The sound packs are way ahead of their time and you can literally generate song ideas from the first bar of these riffs. Worth every single penny and very inexpensive. No problems with syncing right into garageband. No ads no bugs. Honestly my favorite app. Extremely user friendly, I’ve made so much music with this app I could go on all day and I literally hate just about every music app out there..Version: 7.16

So goodThis is so cool.Version: 11.11.1

One Thing MissingLaunchpad is a great app, one of my personal favorites. There is no better app that I’ve ever seen for playing back existing tracks broken down into loops and remixing them with effects. I love the fact that we can import our own loops that’s what makes it the most usable app. It is an app of endless possibilities and satisfying results. The one thing missing however came with the update today which is the labels on each pad. Unless there is a way to turn the labels back on in which I am missing, I see this is a step backwards, although I do like the design. I cannot remember which sample is on every pad and without the labels it makes it difficult especially when playing unfamiliar kits..Version: 7.0

Inspiration for making musicI Absolutely love launchpad it my go to App when I want to start any track and it usually evolves into a full blown live set that gets exported to Ableton live using the export Ableton live session function that loads straight into live exactly the same as it appears on the launchpad App, I also use the Novation Launchkey mini connected to the iPad and works seamlessly I also use the Akai APC 40 mkii when using Ableton. If you are going to purchase Launchpad then do yourself a favour and get yourself BLOCS WAVE & GROOVEBOX and unlock all the features coz you will want to use them I spend a lot of time sampling in blocs wave and love it it’s a constant evolving creative space, only advice would be to have folders to organise your own samples and loops and the ability to over dub on the same sample but other that this very small wish I LOVE AMPIFY 😁🙏👍🤟.Version: 7.16

Great but What is Launchpad PremiumI love the app but I'm curious what Launchpad Premium is and how do I get it. Each update refers to it but I cannot find any other reference to it, anywhere..Version: 9.0.1

GreatFew minor things could be added like being able to record save also instruments, drums, piano Ect so its possible to make something more professional rather then just presets.Version: 1.1

Favorite Dj AppKeep it up LAUNCHPAD I truly love this app. I use it almost every day and it has calmed many of my storms. I recommend it to anyone wanting to learn edm mixing at your own speed. It is intuitive and easy to use. I am getting pretty good and may end up using my mixes for open mic nights here locally. I love the electro mind bending sounds and overall the whole experience. This app is very intuitive and easy to use. I love it personally and have been using it and watching it evolve over the last 7 years. I cant wait for more sound packs to upload on the server because new sounds make me smile! Thank you LaunchPad and the makers of this application, it has truly sparked my dream to pursue music and a career in that department. Much love! I am excited to see what else you produce, maybe some collaboration with mainstream dubstep and bass artists. More premium sound packs per month I love love love this app! More sound flangers pleaaase!!!.Version: 11.11.4

Must Have App For Beginners & ProsI have been using this for a long time. It’s the first app I started to use to make some basic tracks and with it I started learning to use other apps and hardware that linked and synced with it as I progressed with my little bit of musical fun. The simplicity is a good way to get into making music but as you learn the app can become more complicated as you start to use midi controllers and Ableton Link. The app is great for triggering samples while looping live and with AUM it is the perfect app for mixing with synths and drum machines and with a hardware launchpad or launch control the app is totally controlled without touching the iPad. The iPhone version is a more limited version but I can’t complain about it with the 3D Touch being an interesting function. The only thing missing is anything that can export the project files to use with Ableton or use the samples in another app. If it had the export of the other apps like Groovebox it would be 5 stars and the greatest app ever. The midi control is self explanatory with the launchpad and launch control being hardware versions of what you see on screen but it could be more customisable when running multiple apps linked together although I only recently started linking midi devices. So it is the main app that I always use when linking apps and it’s a good way to learn the basics of music production. Just add the export and then it is complete!.Version: 7.6.3

Wonderful app😎👏🏻.Version: 10.7.4

Good but needs a updateOk let’s start with that the app is really fun, cool and awesome at the same time but could have more features like having music you can get the beat from or make it a bit easyer for kids but I would give this game a thumbs up make sure to check it out their game is so much fun to play about with music I will give it a 🙌👏🏼 well done who ever made this game PS . My brother plays this to he’s 31 !.Version: 7.6.1

Great app but can have a bit of a headacheI love this app and the loops it’s great to make your own tracks by putting different loops together to make a song fairly simple. The only thing I have found even though this app if for anyone to use legally I seem to keep getting copyright claims made against me for my tracks I make. Novation need to sort this out. Other than having to constantly reject and explain yourself to copyright claimants the app is awesome..Version: 7.6.6

Love it but please consider these featuresLike the title says, I love this app so much. The only thing I want to see is the ability to edit after a track is recorded, adjusting levels/adding effects and whatnot. Also… PLEASE add a pause button. I have so many distractions in my day to day and sometimes don’t have a full song length before getting interrupted but would love to be able to pause. *back to the after editing part — I like to just feel it out but occasionally you’ll be into a mix and mess up a little part. It’d be great to be able to correct those for recordings. Even without the changes… love this app.Version: 11.13.1

BEST GAME EVER 💋❤️This is the best music app unlike some games you should all get this app once you try it you will want to play 24 7 but don't actually that's bad for i sight.Version: 7.7.2

Amazing app!Fun and Great!.Version: 11.13.2

AmazingThe controls are sooooo easy to use and the experience is amazing you can even listen to your jams made by you even when your not on the app e.g. you can play that music while your playing your favourite game.Version: 7.1.1

Super Cool!I love Launchpad! It has so many different soundtracks and you can record them too! Getting Premium Mode is HIGHLY recommended. The one thing I wish this game actually had is a voice recorder where you can sing to the song too. Otherwise—WAY FUN!.Version: 11.7

This is an amazing appThis app is so good because all the sound packs are so diverse and unique! I really enjoy making recordings. So far I have around 60 recordings. This is an app worthy of ten stars!.Version: 11.12.1

Pretty goodThe only thing you could change is sharing to spotify and other music apps.Version: 11.1.3

GreatFun to play with recomend.Version: 1.0.2

It’s greatLove the sound packs , easy to be creative.Version: 11.11.1

WHY?! Loved launchpad used it all the time-BUT- Hate new versionYou guys had a great thing and then you had to go and mess jt up! The new interphase blows, you are taking the ability to customize away! Are you trying to move to a more game oriented app? I used this app all the time when not in studio, with live. You ruined a good thing- very disappointed. Why is there no way to go to the old user layout? Why cant I set up my grid how I want to easily anymore. Who's great idea was this. The app was so intuitive, easy to use, with depth and flexibility. So sad novation. You guys make great hardware. Amplify you guys s ck..Version: 7.0.2

Enter the masterminds of Ampify.I’ve made two albums with this now (one was made with MUSIC MAKER JAM) and is essentially what you would find with a Launchpad. Like in Ableton with a real Launchpad, you’d load a project and press the buttons to launch a sound. That’s what you do with this app. I’ve used this app since late 2016, and I must say, I’ve never been more amazed. All the sounds (including ones you buy) are royalty free so you can make revenue with your creations. This app also implements Ableton Link (there’s a tutorial of that on Ableton’s site) and AudioCopy. You can also link this app with other apps developed by Novation. If you’re on iPad, you can turn on MIDI sync and sync with any other music app. My verdict: 5/5. A must-have for beginners..Version: 7.6.8

Simply BrilliantI was hooked the first time l downloaded it and l have not wavered regarding those initial feelings ever since. The updates and tweaks over the years were introduced to us “end users” of this app, with a seamless integration which meant the benefits these updates brought with them, were able to be enjoyed and used to enhance something we were already doing on the previous platform and the effect was immediate. Simply put, l never felt the need nor was l required, to spend hours or even days re-training myself on how to use the app. No such drama with this one..! Wish l could rate it higher than just five stars. I have mixed samples from years ago on this app and play them every now and then. It stills feel great to see people genuinely yet pleasantly surprised, when they learn it was one of my creations. Now that’s kicking a goal.....to the creators off this app, all l can say is, keep creating guys, cause these sort of achievements are only spawned by and with, passion. Christos Giorgio.Version: 7.5

From bucket headIt’s so great I’ve made a great career out of this.Version: 10.8.5

Must have!One of the apps you absolutely have to have if you’re a musically challenged musician....Version: 7.6.6

AWESOMEAWESOME!!! But should have more free sound tracks.Version: 7.13

LaunchpadLaunched is good but I had one problem when I brough the import audio for $4 I had a go at it (I imported files and stuff). And then when I updated launchpad I was going to import a new file then it came up with the purchase screen and I am not paying for it agin Launchpad DEV please help me.Version: 8.9.3

The Annoying audio importI’m unable to import files, even though I already have audio import unlocked, I’m running the latest version and iOS, I rebooted, done a hard reset, offloaded app but no luck. I tried importing from Dropbox which I’ve been doing all along as well as VLC-no luck, just get prompted with a ‘audio import not purchased, I click open store, it then tells me it’s already unlocked 🤷🏽‍♂️yet I cannot import, any suggestions please?.Version: 9.8

Not a music makerThe app is misleading and as much as I love to use it, it’s not a music maker, it’s a music mixer been as it has prerecorded sounds that you simply turn on and off, whilst adding effects. You can’t create your own beats, melody or percussions. There is another app you can use that is much like this one only it is a music creator and gives you more freedom to create your own music, but I won’t mention it here as I don’t see it very fair to the Devs of this cool app. Still love the app and remixing sounds with the effects, it’s certainly a lot better on the iPad rather than the iPhone as it gives better usage of features all on one screen rather than trying to flick to different screens for effects and the launchpad..Version: 11.11.1

I love this game but I have some update ideasHello I have some update ideas. These really don’t matter I think but who knows if you read this or not. So really about the music packs I have Idea for it when you get it so I feel like me and some people would like it if it would tell us what sounds you used like what we heard in the sound pack. And my last idea for the lines. So here it is could we titles ares like work music and others and like there is a alert 🚨 if it notices we are changing it and like there is answers like go on or leave it the same cause one time I changed my that was my relaxing to hard time rock. So those are my ideas thanks for listening If you are reading this.Version: 7.16

OMG I though this would be like one the Ames where there is adds every secondI take a back. I was wrong so good amazing not one criticism to make not one that’s a first for me.Version: 11.11.4

Needs list of everything about like everythingThis game might need a fix on deleting things I recording because when I touch delete on the side my screen is just frozen like all the time I’ve tried 7 times today and still it may be because I’m not using delete right or it needs a fix also when I deleted the app and got it back did not work but the game is still a great work on and it has made me get into good beats and anything with it goes good with the buttons. 😀This game also needs a way that people can send songs to other people like in music the app.Version: 7.17.1

We need more pages!Recently I have used samples for BeatPad PC and I was wondering if pages could be a feature. It would be a great feature to have in the app as users can perform launchpad covers on iOS. Thank you!.Version: 7.0.2

I'm madIve been using this app since 2021 and have bought over 20-40$ of packs. and now i cant use any because its hidden behind a subscription???? the only reason this app was worth it is because it was mostly free and didn't push a subscription on you. now all that money spent over the years means nothing?? so I'm being forced to spend 50$ a year now??? i understand if the company isn't making enough money so you have to do a subscription. but if not then why?????.Version: 11.13.1

Great app but missing export features (Ableton)Update: love the new update but missing a “pro” version. Honestly love the look and feel of the new app and love how it works with blockswave & Groovebox. I just wish there was a “pro” version where you could dive a little deeper into midi editing or song arrangement / recoding. Please do this. Great app and even better along with the other notation apps, which are total gems! Deducted one star because it seems to have very limited export options, don’t see an Ableton export option. Would love to see a few more pro features like that added, but it’s def a keeper in the iPad arsenal..Version: 7.0

Still blown away…..!I’m a semi-professional musician with a music degree and a studio room with a full DAW, etc. I started using Launchpad a couple of years ago as a way to unwind and import Splice loops, and avoid the hassle of booting everything up in my music room. I’m STILL blown away by the ease of this app and decided it was time to mention it in a review! Everything is top notch in this app, and the algorithms to transpose and change tempo on loops is unsurpassed. The app is powerful, smooth, easy to use, and well supported. SO much fun! Small ask: ability to duplicate a current song? I like to use similar loops when I’m experimenting, and would be nice to start from a familiar template of loops in my library. Large ask: I know it’s been mentioned, but would be nice to have a sequencer to use drum hits. I appreciate though that this app isn’t supposed to be a literal DAW though and has to draw the line somewhere. Thanks!!.Version: 11.12

Freaking amazingI love the iPad version of this application I am a aspiring DJ/Producer myself so the app for the phone is really good for me because I can bring my music with me everywhere I go because I have ideas going through my head constantly so if I'm on the road I can make something up real quick and I can post it to my Soundcloud right then and there which is really good because I'm signed to a record label and if they want something done right away I can do that and email it to them right then and there so this is really really good.Version: 6.3.1

Key change is awesome!Wow, the second last piece of the puzzle has been completed for Launchpad! Lifting this flexible piece of live software to a new level! The final piece would be the ability to load another project without a break in sonic output..Version: 7.6

Really like this!So THIS is how some performers manage those impressive sets! I downloaded the “upload your own sounds” feature but I’d recommend spending the small extra amount for the full package of features - you may well find them useful later. Great fun for having a personal jam, or for “dj-ing” at a pal’s party or on stage with some live instruments. Also brilliant for creating original backing tracks for video. I’ve not yet found a way to share my projects with other people, and nearly all the projects available are rather dance-centric (which is great, but I’ve just created a uke-and-glockenspiel hipster project!).Version: 10.6

OutstandingThis beat making app is literally the best thing I’ve used in along time.Version: 10.8.4

Actually Incredible.This Beat maker is amazing! I came into this thinking of making just an ordinary beat to share with my friends. But NOPE I’m just sat here now making beats all because it just blends so well!.Version: 10.0

Such great fun.Fun..Version: 11.11.4

This app is AMAZING!!!So I downloaded the app just to try it out and make music. At the start I was a trash so I left the app and here I am coming back to the app this week and with the updates they are putting out with the free music pack is amazing and I have made at least 5 new bangers with the new free packs..Version: 10.7.3

Fat sounds and a slick interfaceDesigned for the armchair warrior, can't tell if it's advanced enough to use for an actual gig but i could definitely take my way through a home party with just the free sound packs alone for a couple hours..Version: 11.11.1

Free sound packsThis is a really good app. I would really really really like to see some more cool, epic, free sound packs please. I love the free packs that you guys have..Version: 11.1.6

Absolutely amazingI never write reviews, that alone should be testament to the fact that I love this app so much. I have so much respect for the creators, it seems like every app nowadays wants to shove an ad down your throat every five seconds. In the good hour I was messing around with it, I didn't see a single one. Several sound packs are free and the ones that aren't are very reasonably priced. It's high quality audio, there's a very handy "tips" page to help you get started, and it's extremely fun making a beat of your own. Five stars, you guys are awesome..Version: 6.3.3

BonLe jeux et plus bon.Version: 10.7.4

IncredibleIncredible.Version: 10.2.1

Been here since day 1I’ve been using launchpad since the early days when I got my first iPad, I have to say it’s the best music app on the App Store. Initially I was able to put it down just due to the lack of features I felt that kept me engaged, but now with the addition of audio import and it working with blocs wave as well as their incredible, and extensive library of handcrafted loop packs...it’s a clear cut above the rest. I do wish there was a bigger board outside of a 6x6, as well as the limitation of having to play a specific loop for each row or it will turn off the other in that row, but maybe someday soon, it’s not a big enough pain for me to mark it down. Must have for any music enthusiast..Version: 7.6.7

AMAZING!This app is simple easy to use. But there are tons of fun fun sounds to put into your music. And it would be hard for me to pick a favorite sound pack. Maybe drum and bass. there are so many sound packs that cost money, why not make some of those free? Now I do completely understand that you are a company and a company does need to get paid, but just a few of those to be free would be nice. I have lots of music apps, and this one is my favorite. And I have checked out your other apps. I really liked groove box, but I wasn’t a big of blocs wave. But really do love you company and would like to see you make more amazing things!.Version: 7.6.3

AmazingThis app really helps you get in touch with your inner musician! My only complaint would be I wish all of the songs were free instead of having to buy the premium version. Great app otherwise!!.Version: 11.11.2

Love it butI love this app. I am not a successful producer, at all, but this app is awesome. The loops and synths are great. I only would like it if you made it free to import sounds. I work with GarageBand to make some of my songs, and I would love to be able to import things I’ve made. I understand you have to make money somehow, but just giving you some feedback. Otherwise, great music app. I’ve made 2 songs using this, and from peoples responses to them, they’re way better than my GarageBand songs, so you beat apple, and that’s an achievement! 👍.Version: 7.1.1

Thank you launch padThis is so easy to use, no adds and retro funk sound pack is beautiful.Version: 11.2.1

Best Music App At Your Finger-Tip"sI have used this amazing ios -App for a long-time,now on the iphone-7 just out the box i removed Garage Band due to being nowhere near as fast and very quick capabilitys as this App is 100% totally outstanding clever piece of fine work by Developers that just simply " Get It " especially in todays loony charts of sorts. The range of loops to backbeats are to perfection and one reliable very good Music App ...2018 and still my number one App ..... Many,many Thanks ... WoW.Version: 7.2

Something very wrongI am having a hell of a time getting the app to load at all. I select it and try to open only to have it go to the icon over and over. it just won't open and after many tries it works. Only to have it not open next time I visit the app. I think this all started after an the most current update and/or after buying the new flanger fx. I don't want to rate it down because I love this app and use it all the time but right now something is very wrong. Same problem for me as soon as I loaded latest update. App won’t open on iPad or iPhone.Version: 7.1

Genius App for the modern ‘composer/musician/DJ’Love it. Can compose music on the fly, as ideas for bigger projects, or individualised soundtracks for your party/backing tracks for your vocal/rap. Needs musical ‘timing’ skills to work, and I’ve played in bands for over 40 years, so that was an easy step. Just loaded the pro pack, as I’ve got some home-studio recorded stuff on Logic that Id like to explore. With Pro you can import your own music. But just a brilliant app. You pay for a lot of huge quality sample sets for just pennies, and it’s all ‘royalty free’ from a usage perspective, because you are the creator. The only app I’ve owned that has made me regularly engage in in-app purchases, because they are just so good. Best creative music app on the planet..Version: 7.9

I might now know what to be when I grow up!I. LOVE. this. Game!!!!!!!!! So I’m young and all my life I wondered what to be when I grew up, like most kids my age, I never tried being D. J but i got this game today because my friend told me about it and I am obsessed I have so many recordings. I forgot to charge my headphones so it kinda annoys my dad because he’s working at home now so like, yeah. But I like it and my dad doesn’t complain because he knows I’m having a good time trying out knew rythems. Bye music class! Hello D.J’s. AND ALL THE PARENTS OUT THERE SAYING “ BEING A DJ IS A WASTE. GET A REAL JOB!” JUST HE HAPPY YOUR KIDS ARE HAPPY AND WEALTHY AND NOT DRUG DEALERS!!!!!!!!!!!! Please no one be a drug dealer. I’m over reacting again. Just great game!.Version: 7.16

AmazingIt’s really good I love making songs on it.Version: 11.11.1

Great game🤩I can even play with my friends! Well on FaceTime if they have the game too. I can make the same beat as someone else! Its a amazing game 🥰.Version: 10.7.4

AmazingI get lost in sound for hours. One of the best apps out there..Version: 11.13.1

Need more Tech House!!Update: 4s This app is fantastic! I personally can’t fault the Creators for anything other than the store needs a better selection within certain genres. I’d love to see more really filthy Tech House/Deep House samples that are inspired by songs from artists such as CLOONEE - Lose Control, CLOONEE - Sneakers Original Review: 5s Love the app! So much freedom, more than enough FX however nowhere near enough variety in genre!.Version: 7.12

I love itBecause I can change the sounds on the button.Version: 11.0.1

Literally the best music making app ever!This app is literally the best app for making music! It comes with so many soundpacks and if you don’t want to use them you can buy soundpacks from the launchpad store! There is only one thing, please add more free soundpacks! Other than that it is literally the best music making app ever! 😄.Version: 8.8.1

Rates 10 out of 10!I love this app, there are no ads, professional performance and tons of pallets to choose from. The one bad thing about it is that you have to get a membership for most of the pallet’s. although they are good deals, you still have to pay. It also has automatic transfers so whenever you press on a different tab on the pallet in the same line it times it so that it sounds professional. And to the developers, you should make it so that two people on different devices can make music you should also make it possible upload the music or beat’s that people make..Version: 11.0

Best music making app availableI’ve tried every music making app around (from free to expensive) and this is by far the best one on the market. I’m not super hi-tech so I really appreciate how easy it is to use, but it also has the best sound samples anywhere, so it’s a win all around. I’ve created songs on here that I listen to all the time. I absolutely love this app, thank you for making it! Currently my favorite hobby and is what keeps me going during these difficult times..Version: 10.9

Pretty goodI like it. Free. Simple. Awesome.Version: 10.2.1

PokwerGood staff only a bit slow on ipad2.Version: 1.4.0

Be a DJ super easyOk so I’m not great at sitting down at a computer with a digital audio program and develop a grand idea while following through on it. I just know what sounds good. This app let’s you just mess with the premade packs. Don’t worry about wondering if someone will hear them and call you out; they won’t. And if they do, they’re also a music maker as no one cares about paid assets like that except those using them themselves. So grab it on a phone, have fun, get good with it, and just bring your phone. You’ll be able to jump in and create something for a party that is made live right there..Version: 11.13.1

Amazing app, can’t import...I love this app. It’s so much fun to mess around with but a while ago I purchased the audio import and was very pleased that I could import sounds from other apps. I recently got a new iPad for Christmas and stopped using my parents Apple ID and got my own. I have family sharing so that I get all my old purchases but when I re-downloaded launchpad it didn’t have audio import, so I logged back into my mum’s account and deleted and downloaded launchpad again and the import was unlocked. So I went to sign back into my account and it was still there, so far so good. I later went to buy a soundpack I really liked and it asked me to sign in to the App Store. So after I did that I couldn’t use audio import any more. I don’t want to have to pay $10 again so is there any way to fix this? Thanks, Charlie.Version: 7.6.6

GENIUSCleverly designed and planned beautifully. This app is a true work of craftsmanship and Art combined. It compensates for its limitations (all music apps have them, no matter how sophisticated) by compensating for what it cannot do by absolutely empowering the end user with what it can do in a beautifully well executed and genius level crafted app that is an absolute joy to use. Take a bow people. Super impressed and loving what’s happening every time I enter this music application. I can simply and easily say there has never been anything better cross my path on an application that can be used on a handheld device. Instant favourite! 10 stars out of 10 stars! AMAZING.Version: 10.7.4

Brilliant appSuch an easy way to make really tasteful music with very little experience. Highly recommend for anyone with an interest in music and creating their own! Would love to see the addition of a global metronome to keep track of your position in the bar, and which bar you’re in. The ‘Organic Soundtrack’ pack is perfect for chilled, relaxing music with washy vibes but sometimes makes for keeping track of the beat difficult. The opportunity for expanding into different and new genres is vast. There are loads of packs to choose from and it’s definitely an app that’s staying on my phone. There are so many features available and I’ve only just begun to scratch the surface..Version: 7.6.5

Very Super CoolI love this music board apps and I like all music beats and all the music buttons are totally super cool and very Awesome looking and like how you can mix the music up with different music beats and different drumming music beats and I totally like all the colored graphics and also all the other music sounds and the different music voices and different drumming music beats and I like and enjoy the whole music board apps and I hope you guys and your company can create and make more music boards for the musical professionals that are out there making and creating more music.Version: 8.9.2

Update fixed export bug from Blocs WaveGreat fix, adjusting to the new layout but all in all this is easily one of the best initially free apps for sketching out sound/song ideas. The in app purchases are typically a good buy and you can preview much of the sounds in the packs. The effects are very good, some are brilliantly realized. I applaud Novation and Ampify for creating such a deep, immersive app for everyone.....Free! The response to my inquiry into a bug with the update was addressed very quickly and within a a few days they had fixed the bug, so kudos to the app support team for their acknowledgement of the bug and their response time! Indispensable as a tool in my studio and the audio import feature is beautifully streamlined, useful and awesome! Great job!.Version: 7.0.1

MehNot bad. Would’ve been better if there was a built in keyboard or something like in GarageBand.Version: 10.4

Best app of it’s kind by milesThere are a few of these beat-making apps available at the moment, but this one stands out with a crisp professional interface and extensive library of sounds set up for modern genres. It also gives you a lot to play with without making any in app purchases. It is also compatible with launchpad hardware, which is amazing - Love it!.Version: 7.14.1

Nice!It would be even nicer if you can change the key of the project like you do in Blockwave. I know this is all about marketing, what you get in one you don't in the other, you have to get both so you purchase more. Isn't that right?. What about showing the original key in the Project for every pack, like Remixlive does? I know that you are going to tell me that you can see the key of the pack in the Store but that's not good enough. Am I missing something here?.Version: 7.0

So coolIt is so cool because you get to make your own music and kids would also love it because they get to experience there own music and there are different sounds in launch pad that you can have fun with! So thank you so much launch pad, I don't know what I would do without this app! 👍.Version: 7.16

AwesomeAwesome already love it.Version: 10.2.1

It’s pretty goodHi there, I recently got into Launch Pad a day ago and I can say I’m already having real good fun just experimenting with all the different tunes and sounds in it. It’s been a real beautiful experience just getting into it and making my songs with the different few genres that have already been put out there. Really have been enjoying the House and just downloaded EDM Haze, which is one of my favorites- along dubstep. The only thing I have to say about it though is, I wish there were more free sound packs as it’s a shame to have to pay for ones that I found and liked but couldn’t download them. But it’s been a good alternative to GarageBand, but at the same time, I think it would be nice if there were more free sound packs available. Yours sincerely CitronRobot.Version: 8.2

Great app!Amazing app, used it for nearly 5 years, very good for making music. I wish I could use beats horizontally at the same time though.Version: 7.16

Love the App (minor suggestions)I've been using Launchpad for years and it's become my secret weapon. So much that I hardly tell people I'm using it to make full tracks. However, my only wish is that some time in the nearest future it becomes possible to edit each pad. Things like being able to switch the note of an individual melody or drum, or even the tempo of some of the instruments. I think this fine tuning capability would really kick Launchpad up another notch. Will continue to use Launchpad regardless but as a person without full access to a DAW setup and program, I'd love to be able to get as close as possible in the meantime. Keep it up!!!.Version: 7.11

AUV3 support would be a game changerSupport for AUV3 would make this app beyond amazing imagine being able to load several instances into a hosts like AUM, Loopypro, Cubasis3, Logic Pro or GarageBand so you can add further effects, record the session data and use several launch pads instead of just one, I’m sure many would welcome this feature, Inter-app audio only allows one instance of this and that feels limiting on creativity..Version: 11.13.1

LaunchpadLaunchpad is easily the best music creation app. The sound packs are reasonable priced and worth the money. Every week I look forward to the next sound pack. Great tools, easy to use and share mixes. I’ve tried all the apps and launchpad is the only one with longevity..Version: 7.6.7

Loop needExcellent app I make a lot of music through need more loops to attach.Version: 10.4.1

This is fun and has better options than garage band!I reallyyyyy like this so far and it doesn’t seem expensive to buy the super cool fx.Version: 11.11.4

AMAZiNGBest Launchpad app ever all my other Launchpad apps I’ve had of you’ve had to pay 199 per month but I didn’t pay that because it is stupid money but this one if you want to do good thanks so this is why I am giving it a five star review it might not make sense because I am writing this with my voice record so I hope you read this and I really enjoy your app and I go on it every day.Version: 11.13.2

GlitchyI have paid for the import app where you can record then import it and It keeps saying that I have not paid for it. I am very annoyed that this is not going to be fixed. I used to love this app but now it useless..Version: 9.8

Fun App, All I Gotta SayThis app is really fun and easy, I love it. The only problem is though, I want to delete some of my recordings of my mess - ups when I was trying to record a song, and I don’t have enough space for me to record the full song and I want to see if deleting my recordings would work, but I can’t find a delete button. I held things, double tapped things, I even looked up on how to delete recordings off of Launchpad, but I have to figure out how to hook my phone onto my computer and I don’t want to go through all that trouble. I even looked in the tips, settings and I even tried to restart the app! But, I can’t delete my recordings. So, pretty fun app, but guys, the one thing that you forgot was a delete button for the recordings. EDIT: Nevermind, I am just an idiot all I had to do was just swipe. Yeah, so there was a delete button. This app is amazing umm...yeah check it out..Version: 10.7.4

Has EverythingI’ve been looking for an app like this forever that is legit and worth the premium price, heck I loved the free version and after just a few hours of using it I wanted to expand to other genres and these full songs are absolutely incredible, has given me such a valuable songwriting tool, I will recommend to my musician friends who can’t always have a full band around when they want to write, awesome app guys or gals keep up the good work !! Signed, a very happy John C from Kentucky.Version: 11.13.2

Give more music 🎶I like the game but it gets boring after a while and sometimes gives you and others a headache 🤕 it used to be my favorite game but sorry my favorite game is now among us go check it out on the App Store. If you guys (or girls) give more music 🎵 i will play it but for now I don’t want to see it on my iPad again. I wanted the makers of the game to please make more free music and add so people can sing 🎤 on it but you don’t have to do the singing one this is an update on the review. P.S. thank you for the update on the game! So I’m back and I liked the update it’s nice 👍🏻 good job this is the last time I’m going to be on my review so thank you bye 😃😺 👁👄👁.Version: 9.0.1

Hell yesJust superb.Version: 10.7.4

Brilliant.Pick up & go, lots of fun..Version: 1.0.1

Omg 😱I love this game it’s just so much fun 🤩.Version: 11.11.2

Wonderful!This app is amazing! It’s fun, easy to use, and has a multitude of sound packs for users to purchase; many of which I have bought myself. Now, I recently got an iPad and re-downloaded the app and previously purchased sound packs, everything working smoothly. Then comes my one and only issue with this app. There is no way to transfer previously made songs to new devices. In my opinion, an email account system would be nice to allow the transfer of all app data, including songs, to new devices. Other than that, I have absolutely no issues with this fantastic launchpad app, which has allowed me and many others to explore the magic of music! 🎶.Version: 7.8.1

I am so grateful for this game❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ this is the most awesome music game ever I was like mom you you like this game don’t you? And she said “this is no game this is a DJ app!” My mom likes this up too I was searching for music games I am obsessed with music all of the music apps were stupid but this game😱😱😱😱😱😱❤️❤️❤️❤️😎😎😎👑👑👑 oh my goodness I make the craziest beats ever thank you so much for this game. I gave this game five stars even though I should give it 10 stars but it doesn’t give me the option to do that that’s how much I love this game launchpad is the best DJ app ever!!!!! This game should be famous! Super duper famous pls make more awesome music games like this I was just on your DJ app! Again thank you so much for this DJ app.Version: 9.7

Love the app! However it comes at a price, literallyI’ve been on this app for a while now and made some music with it. However it’s limited to a couple of sound packs when you start off. Yes, there are free packs in the store, but there are only three currently as of writing this review. In my opinion I think in order to enjoy this app fully you have to purchase sound packs or additional add-ons. However this issue can be resolved by having free sound packs every month or so because 1. Some people on this app are young and probably don’t have any iTunes or money to spend on this app. 2. It’ll be cool for people who make music regularly and may want to spice things up with a new and free sound pack. Other than that, I love this app!.Version: 7.6.8

REALLY GREAT!This is really good, it's the best musicmaker I've found on Appstore, you can pick different style (electro, trap, hip-hop, and others). It make you feel really creative and there's a tone of different sound, you can mix them, and there is also effect you can had to the beat to make it sound like a really song. For free, you can make an infinity of different music, download now!!.Version: 7.7.2

The Launchpad iOSThank you for your consideration I’ve been a “silent”Ambassador for Novation and there products. My first purchase was The Orginal Launchpad with an Impulse 49 with a LIVE 7 Suite . I’ve continued to Support the Novation Family Software and Hardware adding twos Launchpad X’s, Launchkey 25 MK3, Circuit Trax, Bass Satiation , Max for Live, All the IOS Applications buying the Pro Features And Live Set For each Application when I purchased the Subscription I knew Have to shell out more Cash for renewal however I was extremely taking for A loop when the Subscription came to a End I would not be able to access anything past the point of me being subscribe this seem like completely wrong for many reasons . Not being able to have and option to revisit the projects That we developed seems like comprehensive way to drain the pockets of Consumers. How is this a fair practice. We have Subscription base programs for clothing, Food….. I once had a T-shirt Subscription That was completely awesome for how exclusive it was however when the service Ended They didn’t take my shirts off my backs. The disappointment was definitely a shock for the first time in my long history of my loyalty to the Novation family of Brands . Your Product provides Superior experience in learning the craft and I personally feel that if I buy a subscription I committed myself to all the packages for that year. Looking forward to a response from the team!.Version: 11.1.3

So funSo funky.Version: 7.0.2

EthanGreat for making music and also you can do it you can do it whenever you can and also you can choose whatever you music you what ever you want from you have to do you download some for money no my mum said and also say it’s really easy because you don’t have to go by an instrument and also it’s super cool and I think it’s great when you have it or not iPad or TV we are having.Version: 8.5

The best there is!I believe it been a year since I started using Launchpad. The learning curve was almost non existent as this app is so user friendly, the sound packs are cheap and there is always a new one every week or two. You can interchange any sound from any pack, and u get a 7x7 board to build whatever song u want, it amazing! On top of the fact you can change the key of all tones, or speed up and lower the speed of the beats. Plus there is a hot bar with a flanger etc. The options are endless just like the sounds and if your hobbie is music or your trying to start out as a musician this app WILL get you there. 5 out of 5 worth every cent!.Version: 10.7.4

LaunchPad Is AWESOMEThis App Has Kept My Intrest For 3 Years and I would just love to say a big thank you for making my time using the app worth it, I would love it more if you could make up your own loops or record your voice for them but I hope this will stay my favourite app for many years to come! XOXO kai.Version: 11.0

Recommend !!!I recommend this app to anyone who likes things to do with making music and songs and anyone (like me) who struggles with playing instruments but still likes things to do with music. This really does help with songwriting and music. There are many projects to choose from but I and I think a lot of people would like a project that is a little more gentile and light for softer songs or music. Apart from that I think this is a great app and completely recommend it. Thumbs up from me 👍!.Version: 7.6.2

I love this app so muchTitle says it all. I’ve tried but ever been able to create before - not like I can create with this app. Love the samples and there’s new packs added all the time. Worth every cent IMO..Version: 11.11.3

This thing is great I love itThis is cool😳.Version: 7.6.7

Great app good jobThis app is the closest thing most people have to an actual launchpad brilliant job though i have a suggestion since this app ties into blocs wave could you add a feature to blocs wave where you can copy actual launchpad projects made by people like MDK or KASKOBI into blocs wave so people who don’t have enough money to buy a launchpad or the equipment to import the sounds they used can play the projects they have created gonna say once again great job novation hope it’s possible to add the feature that I mentioned keep up the good work.Version: 7.6.6

Crashes while workingDon’t bother adding favourites or trying to create a track from an empty sound pack. After hours of work the app will crash and all that effort becomes pointless. It’s happened several times to me. Pretty disappointing. If you choose to use this app, take the time to write down the pads your using in a note pad so when it crashes (and it will) you’ll be able to start all over again. Yay.Version: 7.6.4

Love itI absolutely love this ap. give me the confidence to start making my own music and sharing. I did notice that after the update exporting tracks from bloc wave to launchpad an error happens. After the exporting and the launchpad app start the song exported isn’t there. Pleas pleas fix as no other way to upload to soundcloud.Version: 7.0

Amazing. Just SO Amazing.It is so good you can make your own music with this. I am so speechless and all the DJ themes are just shocking. 10/10, love it.Version: 11.13.3

Crashes on my projectsAll of a sudden just crashes on my projects paid for.... very annoying.Version: 7.1.1

A seriously amazing appThis app out performs all others that I have come across. The sound packs are highly creative, easy to use beautifully presented. The apps ability to sync with other music programs is just one of the many bonuses that are provided. If you can’t make music using this app then you are in the wrong profession..Version: 7.7.2

THIS GAME IS FAB BUT........Ok so this game is awesome 👍🏻 but just make sure you have good storage 😑so I downloaded this app and it was great and I saved my song to photos and it was all fine until....😣 I went back on the app and I. couldn’t even listen to anything on the app 😭 I checked my sound on music and it was fine 🤔so it was the app 😣so I deleted it and have now been waiting 30mins for it to download 😬.Version: 7.18

🤩 wowAt first I thought it was gonna be a launch pad with adds everywhere and paying membership for better stuff but this app is so cool and good and the fact you can make the beat drop sound so good with any of the sounds created is the best. -Santiago.Version: 7.10

Excellent appSound is good quality. Tempo and key can be easily changed and recording feature is very straightforward. It’s just what I was looking for as an easy wag to create backing tracks for funky bass guitar lines. It would be even better if it was possible to select Major keys as well as minor but I love it and highly recommended this app over many others that try to do the same thing..Version: 9.6.2

LaunchpadHi everyone I am a BIG BIG fan of all of novation/ampify Apps as I have them all. But I’m here to talk about the launchpad app, the one and only thing I could fault on the iPhone version is that there is no option to controll volume of individual sections like you can on the iPad version. But apart from man I love it I use it everyday no joke, I use it to make all of my music so far along side blocks wave which is a another winning app. I would recommended this to anyone for sure. I wish they had a Mac version too but no doubt that’s in the works. Anyway this is one longgggg review GREAT PRODCUT.Version: 7.7.2

Lost audio importI’ve been using this app for years and it’s brilliant but yesterday my old iPad decided I no longer have audio import , I still have it on my phone but not iPad :-: no reply from support and I notice that you are now doing a subscription for premium and is this how you think you’ll get me to pay for something I already own ? I know it’s an old iPad but I paid for audio import and having to buy a new iPad may not sort it :-/ if no response I’ll have to look at other solutions Still no response , am going to have to find another solution as this no response is indicative of their attitude to old customers and they are not the only company to introduce monthly payments for premium features whilst disabling those features for those who bought them a while ago and they “think” it’s about time to get more money from them ? That’s how it feels and I’m not into supporting a company who does this no matter how good the product is.Version: 11.13.1

Crashes when opening!This app, like bloc wave, are both outstanding in every way, I’ve enjoyed jamming away in the past, until now... After updating to iOS 11.1.2 it seems, like many other apps now Launchpad crashes on opening and Just won’t work. I can’t even open it to take advantage of Black Friday offers😫😫.Version: 6.3.9

There is none better on the App Store than Novation!I have purchased every loop based app on the App Store and find that Launchpad coupled with Blocks Wave is the best bargain, bar none. I am an accredited music producer, who feels the ability to modify, then export entire songs worth of phrases is a tremendous advantage. Especially considering most packs are only a dollar or two. I wish I could share my most recent production using these products in this post to showcase the professional quality achieved with an iPad, an app and a few hours of my time. Keep nailing it Novation! You have a fan for life!.Version: 7.6.7

The Most Amazing App Ever....Until it crashesLaunchpad is a very important part of my production workflow but the crashing during recording is starting to frustrate me. I have a high end 2 gen iPad Pro 12.9”. I can handle multiple hardcore apps at the same time with no issue but Launchpad crashes every other session while recording. I have lost multiple perfect sessions due to this. You all need to do one of two things, preferably both. Add a saving option so you can come back to the same point in your project or, better yet, add a timeline that we can record directly to with a save option. And before anyone yells at me about how “that’s not the point of Launchpad”, why not. I love this app, please fix this. One more thing, the entire app does not crash, just sound output. Once it crashes the app is still running but sound is no longer present. Meters move, everything works, just no sound and that is where the recording ends..Version: 7.7.2

NovationLaunchpad reviewI Say get LAUNCHPAD APP for your iphone and you won’t look back , I love it. It’s so flexible and mind numbing and expansive beyond your imagination. Iv been using this app for more than few years now. The app is Excellent. It’s a forever evolving platform The app is great for someone with a good imagination Make your own genre if you want It’s the Launchpad Evolution, I highly recommend Launchpad the app and notation and all the related products keyboards , pads, list just goes on... and to think how clever the sound engineer who designed this platform . 👍.Version: 9.4

CornerstoneFirst, thanks to the developers and loop makers, you make a composers life so much easier. It is easy to not only generate ideas, but build compositions that are deep and theatrical. Second, my biggest wish is for more environmental and subtle orchestral loops. Other than that, you will not find a better or more versatile loop music creation app anywhere. The ability to move loops between sets you have onboard or have created (yup...you can do that) means I can customize any set anytime. I have scored both TV shows and movies with this app and it constantly exceeds my expectations as a creator, composer, and musician. Build off this app with a decent keyboard, guitar, or other instruments and you will be amazed at what you can accomplish in production..Version: 7.8.1

WonderfullIf you dont like the sounds given you can adjust them to faster slower turn some down and some up. All in all it amazing.Version: 7.3

I love this game it’s AMAZING if you don’t like it.... I will get depression!🤣😭This game is the most amazing idea someone has ever had! There are different ones that you can do to have a nice variety of tunes. I would like to admit that there are SOME ads but it’s only so they can earn a li’l money so I don’t care and there are BARELY any which is a nice change! I hope anyone else who downloads this app sees how amazing it is!.Version: 7.17.2

Won’t open after updateWon’t open after update Please fix this, I want to be famous how can I if won’t open But other wise it’s a great app, one of the best apps Works great with bloc waves.Version: 7.1

Really coolThat you can take videos and change the title of the Recording and when you swipe up it does that thing and make a update That you can do all of the beats.Version: 7.6.5

Love it, but suggestionI’ve been using this app since it was was first released and I absolutely love the whole thing so much! That being said, I do have an idea for an improvement, I think you should add a button to switch projects during live play, the launchpad has the capability if the software supports it. If I could change from one set to another with the push of a button it would help a lot with fading into the next track during live performances using the app. Just an idea, I love the program, and I’m a big fan of your instruments as well!.Version: 7.14.1

Wow!I didn’t think this app was gonna be this amazing!!!! Along with blocs wave and Groovebox and a couple other apps along with my launchpad using a focusrite itrack dock for my audio interface and the possibilities are endless. I can design almost any sound I want now, sorry not much need to buy your sound packs anymore even tho I still get em sometimes for a few newer sounds. I’m really just starting to touch the surface of what it does. Tomorrow I have a volca sample coming in that I’m hoping I can integrate into this setup. It has midi sync so we’ll see. Buy the pro versions of their apps and a little hardware and almost no use for a DAW anymore. Super impressed!!!! Oh yeah. So a way to automate key changes would be awesome too and more than just the minor scale. Every time I update a sound from Blocs Wave to launchpad, Launchpad stops responding..Version: 8.6.1

FunI wish I could do a bit more without paying but still great.Version: 11.13.2

It’s a Great song and great remix butI like the idea of Mixing it and music as well but does these old once be turned into download whenever this doesn’t gets used on it, I mean if the Other album never been used or it has a sale on it can you make some of them downloadable for some of it becuase some of them are old and some of them are new but half good ones we try then we buy and half is old which we can use them! Thank you for reading this!.Version: 10.7.4

All Novation apps are ill......and I can't wait to try out your hardware next. Shot out to Dibia$e. I really only have one request: Please, (please, please), allow all of 'em, esp. Launchpad & Blocs Wave, to sync projects across all my iOS devices, (via wifi, bluetooth, LTE whatever)—in the background. Spending gobs of time setting up my joints on my iPhone while running around the city... and then having it all show up on my iPad when I perform that night, would be theeeee' killer feature. Better than the next 10 sound packs combined ;) Thanks Novation.. now back to the beats! PS. A Launchpad trigger system for stage vocalist on the Apple Watch would be crazy ✨🔓👀.Version: 6.3.1

Super cool !Kind of cool for a music lover like me.Version: 11.0.1

Best Music App in Store Hands Down!I really don’t know why this app isn’t #1 on the Apple store. Loops that can be altered and moved onto another sound loop with key adjusting and recording with publishing is definitely worth the download trust me and everyone else on this! I’ve ran into ZERO bugs and and created amazing songs that I jam out to! All the sounds in every pack comes with something unique and I love it. I love how you can mash sounds together in different sounds and slap some reverb on it too! You also have the option to input your own audio! Comes with a small price but it’s totally worth it! You have my 5 star review and now go write yours!!!.Version: 8.0.1

LaunchpadLove this app so much and have made (in my own head at least) some unbelievable tracks but one thing I would love even more is a fade out in the end when you’ve finished recording, it’s too abrupt at the end of the song is there a way to end a track more smoothly?.Version: 10.0

Highly rate this app!So as someone who is not a hard out muso or music producer. This is a genuinely fun and relatively easy app to use to understand some of the basic in terms of timing and pitch etc Wide range of packs and sounds, definitely a plus Only thing I wish we could do is mix and match loops from different sound packs to build our own packs, bonus points if you make this happen. Even then I’ve enjoyed making some cool stuff 💯.Version: 8.9.2

WowBest app ever.Version: 11.11.1

Jason Rose, Umm I might be stupid?So launchpad is amazing and is getting frequent updates, sound packs, and is always open for review. The free sound packs are amazing and the ones you buy could be better or worse depending on perspective. The one thing I don’t like about it is that once you’ve purchased something then exit out of the soundtrack you can’t restore your purchase so I might be missing something or I’m just stupid. I would really like if one of the developers could help me out here. I just read some of the reviews and saw that 2yrs ago someone had the same problem I did so where is the restore purchases page and by restore I mean get rid of the sound packs and get my money back because I bought one and realized it was the wrong one. If you could reply pls do ASAP. But this is still an amazing app and I would recommend people to download it. 20/10. Other than my bug it’s amazing so much appreciated developers for all you’ve done for this app..Version: 9.3.1

The Amazing LaunchpadI struggle with a TBI and Launchpad allows me to be creative and express a feeling, even a sensation. I love it so much I’ve paid for premium the last few years!.Version: 11.2.1

The apps greatYou’re pretty good at making lots of great apps. I really love those apps, especially this one. Launchpad is one of the best apps in the world. and you can make whatever music you want in the genre thing. but it would be excellent if you put an EDM and dubstep in there as well. after all, I love dubstep. although I’m not critical, so you don’t need to worry. anyways, I like the app, it’s so good..Version: 11.12.1

Very niceI love this app and I can just sit for hours while mashing very nice sounds that work together wonderfully. I’m curious on one thing, what can I do with the Ableton link feature? I have linked my iPod and phone together both via this app and I’m just curious what I can do with it..Version: 7.5

BOOM!!!💥Novation have smashed it with this app’ I’m a Dj/Music Producer and would recommend this app to anyone’ it’s easy to use mixing and making beats at home or on the go with helpful tips to guide you’ my 6 year old son loves this app and he’s constructing his own tracks which is great to see and helps me educate him into the world of music production’ the design is top draw’ it looks cool’ the sample packs in the store are 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 and when linked up with the Novation Launchpad you can really get something going!!! #housemusicallnightlong.Version: 7.0.2

Good app but needs a way to export music to filesI love launchpad but there needs to be a way to export recordings to files so I could use the music for stuff.Version: 11.2.1

Please add feature that exports separate stemsOk, it’s a great app, can’t really argue with how much it does for free, but I would gladly pay for all the iap features like I did for Blocs Wave and Groovebox, if Lauchpad could export the performances to separate audio files for each track, so I can mix it in a Daw either on my IPad or MacBook Pro to polish it and get it sounding as good as possible. I know this app isn’t really aimed at pro users as far a audio production goes but exporting stem would attract more users, and also the same level of interaction with Groovebox that exist with Blocs Wave would be great. I would love to simply import my projects from Groovebox, or send them from Groovebox to Launchpad, either way would be great..Version: 8.3

Latest update - free sound packs?No sign of the free sound packs listed as available with latest update. I have received a reply to this from the developer. This then got more confusing. The developer replied to my original review saying there are two not three free sound packs in the latest update despite what it says in the update information. The confusion was then removed when I found there were indeed three new projects in the Projects menu. It would have been helpful if the update information had indicated that there were three new free projects in the Projects menu. As was logical, I had looked in the Shop where sound packs are usually to be found. However, the developer is to be applauded for a quick response to my review..Version: 7.0.2

Held back just that bit...It would be great if hardware launchpad or at least if launchpad mini would work in the iPhone with the app, like it dies on the iPad version. Would be good for a more compact live setup for gigs.Version: 7.6.7

Launch ur soundThis is by far one of the best apps I have come across and is the first music app I have found that fits me. I'm not a cheap person but I would not of purchased anything from an app until I found launchpad, thank you all who put this together I can't wait to see what your next mods will be. One suggestion we'll more fin a hopeful question, a touchpad box for the effects so that your moving inside the box changes the x and y parimter and one or multi tap on a section to hold/release/ set depth or speed.? That would rock as an all in one app with featuring basically a split screen chaos pad,.Version: 7.2

AceYeah it's proper good. I'm using it on 2 iPads synced. Spend hours messing stuff up & mixing from one genre to another. Could do with the ability to save each soundpack into a folder (or record bag) so it's easier to find the tracks you want. Also when a track is loaded I need to see the title of that pack as I'm playing it, just so when I'm loading another on the 2nd iPad I don't load the same pack. Little gripes though for what is a fantastic app. Even the sound packs you think you're not gonna like (Trap,techno & so on) can be mixed with house beats & pitched down so you get an altogether different sound. I'd advise anyone to pinch there siblings iPad, sync it to yours & start mashing up some genres. Yes. Excellent fun. Edit. Since the update you can now mix between sound packs which is absolutely amazing. Seriously good stuff. I’m considering doing a DJ set out live now just with this app. Love playing multi genre sets & its now possible to do this with launchpad & not have a silent gap going from one pack to the next. Bravo. 11 out of 10..Version: 11.0.1

Very goodLove this app, when its ‘fully loaded’ it becomes an intuitive and infinitely flexible tool in a musicians arsenal for creating great tracks. You don’t even ‘need’ the hardware launchpad to get the best out of it, as a stand-alone iPad app it is very easy to use and enjoy. Edit:-Just had to come back & add to my previous review, this app has now evolved from a really useful tool to something really special. The improvements with the FX have made a huge difference, they are incredibly flexible. You can combine them, tune them and map them as you see fit. They are very intuitive & probably the best implimentation of 'on the fly' performance FX I have yet seen on IOS. Best function imho, though, is the import tool, so you can use your own samples and loops. Great app, snag it now. You wont be disappointed. Edit 2:-Removed one star...the midi synch... doesn’t synch... It’s consistently one half-beat out when using launchpad on two identical iPad Pro’s on the same network. The offset (in milliseconds) does exactly nothing. Fix that and you’ll get the star back..Version: 7.13

Great new look! Absolutely best inspirational composer. Period!Amazing new update! Always a go to on the iPad. Great sound libraries too. Integrates super with blocs. Hope bloc gets a fresh new look too..Version: 11.0

Pre updated version back pls!?I've been using this app for awhile now.. I've been disappointed with the latest updates tho... it's not random enough with pre selected sounds anymore.. Any change would be appreciated....Version: 7.2

ConfusedAfter updating such an exciting update ,it now doesn’t load at all...please help me fix this issue as iv spend over$200 on this app and to have this bug sure is disappointing.Version: 7.1

Despite update, still greatI deducted a star for the new update as it’s a step backwards, but still a very good app. Please listen to feedback from ma y and return to the old design. You tried the new one but it didn’t work as well. Also, try responding to Facebook messages..Version: 7.0.2
