Launchpad - Music & Beat Maker for Negative User Reviews
✓ Overall useful and nice sounding but not without issuesV.7 has a nice interface and some nice new features. Still, the glaring omission of a reverb effect and ifx per clip keep this from being an iOS production staple. There are still some issues with sample import like difficulty getting loops to sync and stuff as well. Seems V.7 was mostly a UI update. I still don’t understand the effect IAP’s as they should come standard and free. Novation certainly makes enough income off their “launch packs”....Version: 7.0
✓ Total Rubbish!I purchased the “audio import” feature thinking it would do what it claims – I was sorely mistaken. The app continually locks up when trying to import any of my sounds which essentially makes it useless. It’s also very disappointing that upon submitting a support ticket to Novation I only receive a canned response with irrelevant faq links two days later. Apparently I’ll have to contact Apple in order to get the money back I paid for this complete piece of crap! EDIT: In regards to the developer response; It was too much trouble going through all the hoops and confusing support process so Apple refunded my money. Honestly I don’t like apps with fake reviews and inflated five star ratings. Judging by the real ones this app would barely be 3/5. Maybe instead of paying for bogus reviews work on the product that customers are deceived into paying for and not getting..Version: 7.0.2
✓ Free sound packsI got all the free sound packs authorized then I dont receive them. I try pressing it again and it does nothing.Version: 7.6.7
✓ App constantly close when importing stuffA re review Originally I gave this 4 stars and I thought it was worth it. Personally not many of the sound packs are to my taste. So I usually import all my own stuff into the app. It was a decent app and pretty simple to import your own drums, riffs and samples and jam away. Now whenever I try importing my own stuff from AudioShare it closes the app. It’s exactly the same on both my iPads. As soon as you put in the bpm/key and press import the app closes. When it did work it was an ok app. Now it’s pointless as I am unable to import my own stuff and tbh the sound packs ain’t all that great (personal preference). Fix this bug and I will put my score back up. I can’t even import from blocs wave. It’s pretty useless for how I use it.Version: 7.8.2
✓ Maudit abonnements !Pas question d’abonnement ! J’aimerais payer une fois tout simplement sans contrat de mariage !!!.Version: 10.4.1
✓ Unfulfilled potentialThis app has a lot going for it, but can’t be controlled by midi, which severely limits its professional use. This seems to be so that Novation can sell more of their launchkey controllers, which is fine, except for the fact that these controllers will only control the app whilst the app is in the foreground. Switch apps and you lose control- a major showstopper. This shortcoming has stopped me from making in-app purchases in launchpad- have faith in your software and allow midi control novation!.Version: 7.17.1
✓ Needs bluetooth MIDI desperatelyWith all the great feature updates launchpad has had, it is becoming a strong contender for center spot in my live rig, however poor MIDI outboard control options when coupled with the loss of digital audio (it's one or the other with Apple IOS) are holding this app back from live greatness. Everyone including the developers know that getting Live digital audio out of a iPad cannot be done if you want to plug a MIDI controller into the iPad. So if like me you plug a launchpad MIDI controller into the iPad to bring the Launchpad app outboard in a fantastic way, the big sacrifice is audio quality, as you are forced by Apple to use the headphone socket as your audio source for integrating the live output of Launchpad into a mix with other instruments. Now this developer already provides Bluetooth MIDI for one of their other apps, so it's not as if they don't know how to do it! My dream is to connect my Launchpad MIDI controller to the iPad via Bluetooth, use it to play the Launchpad app and get back the digital audio output the iPad offers. There are 3rd party Bluetooth dongles on the market that could make this connection tomorrow if this developer brings Bluetooth Midi support into Launchpad. I want to use this app a lot more as it continuously evolves in good ways but the lack of bluetooth is a show stopper as i won't sacrifice audio quality live..Version: 7.0.2
✓ Battery usageLove the app. Absolutely kills my iPhone battery though. 50% usage from 25mins of on screen use..Version: 3.0
✓ Worst gameYou have to Pay to play it I’m sick of apps doing that.Version: 11.0
✓ Why change apps that actually workHi I have been using launchpad since I got my first iPad , however this is not about launchpad but it is about remix live . Why the hell would you take what class was the best app going and turn it into something which is now as bad as launchpad? Please put remix back to how it was , 1 easy to navigate, 2 had a lot of excellent features that were extremely useful , 3 take away the mixing features that made remix live the successful and best music app I have ever used . Please rectify this error I am sure I am not the only person that feels this way . Many thanks Jay.Version: 7.11
✓ Needs more starting genresI believe that there should be a wider range of genres to start out with instead of just a bunch of house ones I wish that the chip tune genre could be one of the starters..Version: 11.8.1
✓ Great appOnly reason I dont rate it 5* is because I’m a broke boy and no premium plan for me. If it was entirely free it would be 6/5*.Version: 11.1.5
✓ WtfOn iOS 13 and when using the wh1000xm3 when using the fX it stops and makes this horrible screeching noise and I’m scared to use the app DO NOT USE WITH WIRELESS HEADPHONES!! Edit: I have found another bug when using the app with no headphones only half of the loops have sound. Edit 2: can’t change sound packs otherwise it crashes This app needs a lot of work.Version: 7.11.1
✓ My soundcloud can’t connect even though I put the correct password and emailOk so I’ve used this app for years and I love it but I started soundcloud last year and I wanted to put some songs onto soundcloud But when I put my information in it said authorisation failed try again and I tryed again with my Facebook but it said the exact same thing could you help me figure out what’s going on because I’ve ran out of ideas..Version: 7.7.2
✓ I can't access to in-app storeNice app, very easy but I can't access the in-app in my new iPad mini 2..Version: 1.13
✓ Please WE NEED MAJOR KEYSThis app and it’s sister apps are truly amazing, is there anyway to change them from minor to major, or are we stuck with sad minor keys. Believe you me, I LOVE minor scales I have all my musical life, but there comes a time where the major sets a completely different tone. I would give this app 5 stars, but without major keys or the many variants that exist in the world of music. I cannot give complete support to them anymore. I love making music with your apps, and yes there are many time where the keys don’t really matter as far as making high energy “happy music”. Please maybe see if you fantastic men and women can give it a shot!!! I love you work and it’s made me a better musician even when I thought music was over and done in my life. I’ve given up a lot for my musical dreams, foolishly at times, so would you make it happen for all of us who enjoy your app.... Or if I’m that air headed could you please redirect me to what I should be doing? Maybe there’s something I over looked. I’ll try my own methods of changing the keys for now, but having that power within your app would give me the JUICE I’ve been looking for. I think the people who listen to my music would appreciate it too. Right now my work sounds like Mozart just before he di3d....not too fun eh?.Version: 7.9
✓ Since Novation took overFrom Ampify, i’d have to say i’m extremely disappointed. ive used launchpad for several years now. but so far, since novation took over, i’ve noticed the packs are sub par in comparison to when Ampify owned Launchpad. i’m not sure why, maybe there’s a different team? idk. also to edit a pad takes way too long to load. i used to use this app with one other app, now i find myself using 4 and back in the app store looking for a replacement altogether. after being happy with this app until recently, i’m kind of sad about it. the genres of the latest packs… what? the packs sound childish. they sound awful, just awful. i’m not making ringtones… i’m trying to make actual tracks. paying $10 a month for this, idk anymore..Version: 11.0.1
✓ Launchpad has always been brilliant. But now they want to send you broke.The company that makes Launchpad have introduced a subscription model, a “Launchpad Pro” level of membership in which you get access to their entire catalogue of soundpack, plus new ones each week. But it's not cheap. Obviously, you are not *compelled* to sign up for this higher level of access, but if you already have, eg, an account on Loopcloud or Splice, or similar, then this new thing will seem like a very big ask..Version: 9.4
✓ Overdoing it on the updating the GUI.It was much better before, it was already minimal. The latest updates have made the GUI look more kindergarten. Improve it under the hood, each iteration gets less responsive. Also, can you unlock it so the cheesy sound packs it comes with can be deleted? Haven't yet found a way to do this..Version: 7.6.5
✓ Bug found, I hate the bugHi! Something has been really bothering and it’s this bug that makes this happen: When I set the bpm of a project say 162bpm to 93bpm, I noticed that if I then increase that new bpm (like 93 to 94) by 1 then decrease it by 1bpm (increasing and decreasing quickly and having the increasing and decreasing of the bpm start before the sounds on that will load to become a new sound) the sounds will never load! This is a way to help it: closing the app and reopening it. That way is the ONE and ONLY way to help it but if I do the thing that CAUSED the bug last time AGAIN, the sounds STILL don’t load! STILL the bug happens if I delete the app from my device and redownload the app again if I do the thing that CAUSES the bug! NANI?!??!?!?!?!.Version: 11.13.3
✓ Great sound pack(s) meh effectsOverall Some cool sounds, but really too simple and the effects are just some Gates and loops. Great for playing around with I guess not much else. However the free cataclysm sound pack was pretty awesome, most apps like this don’t go as hard as that did. Felt like I was making a Soundtrack for the game doom or something. That alone was worth the download and 3 stars. Some of the features that they are charging for should probably be free if they want people to invest in a sound pack. Was hoping for some kind of integration with GarageBand or fruity loops but I guess it only does ableton live apps? This is so basic that if your using ableton live I don’t see the need for it..Version: 7.15.1
✓ Latest update ruined thisThe decision to completely "overhaul" the graphics to fit ios 8 has ruined the feel of the application. The worst of it was the change to the timing bar on each node. Previously it was a horizontal bar that filled up as it played which was easy to use for your timings. However now it's a circular pattern that's hard to tell when it's finished. Until this is changed I do not recommend this application..Version: 1.8
✓ Bad update!! Please roll backLatest update is so impractical guessing game now for what your playing.. why take away labeling or the grids.. bad move enjoyed a lot before it.Version: 7.0
✓ Cool gameCool beats.Version: 10.7.2
✓ Where did my packs go?So I bought a new iPad, did the transfer of data and apps using the approved apple method. Then I tried to launch a Blocs Wave project that used packs from Launchpad. I was invited to tap and launch to restore the missing packs… only to find that Launchpad insists there are no packs to restore. Both BW and Launchpad apps could be about so much more. But there is not the will to develop them to the max. After finding that my project is now basically unusable, it’s the LAST time I buy anything from these guys..Version: 11.13.3
✓ Very badAll the good songs are payed for so I went to import my own and boom also pay for that and theres only 5 free songs.Version: 11.12
✓ Makes me sign in every time I want to browse the storeThis never used to happen in Launchpad and does not happen with the other Ampify iOS apps. Love all these apps, have a Launchkey Mini Mk2, and we even bought a Focusrite USB audio interface. So, loyal customer--but sign in to look at the store is annoying. (Frankly I preferred the old project browser, too and feel it was easier to use and keep track of my projects separate from the loop packs.) ETA With all the (constant) redesigns and updates to this app, which killed many of my saved projects, WHY is it impossible to see the NAME of the SOUNDPACK to which a LOOP belongs, using the less-than helpful search function? WHY is this information apparently not available to the user? If this function exists, WHERE IS IT?!? Do I really have to examine the bass or drum section of EVERY SINGLE SOUNDPACK IN MY LIBRARY to find the name and thus identify the origin of a loop I am looking for?!?! (YES) Can't search by loop name in the store, either. The next time you're updating, FIX. THIS. AND: why do the pad selections DISAPPEAR when you hit stop? How are you supposed to make considered selections when the app wipes the work as you go along. (SCREEN SHOTS!).Version: 11.11.4
✓ It’s pretty goodNot much you can do without paying, but still pretty fun. Even though 90% of the entire game restricts you unless you pay 3 dollars..Version: 11.13.3
✓ More dubstepI like dubstepSo I need more.Version: 11.11.1
