Update doesnt work

Im really excited that the audio editing DAW feature is being added to the vocalive app, but it isnt working. When I click on the studio section, the app freezes right away and crashes eventually. Then I have to restore purchases again every time it happens, and it happens every time. Please fix this. I dont want to accidentally make an in-app purchase that I already have on accident by forgetting to restore my in-app purchases. Please fix this problem!

App freeze

I update my vocalive and when I open the application its freeze I cant do any thing !:(

Keep losing purchases

Nice update with the studio but I keep losing my purchase like my 4 track recorder!!!

Please fix!!!

I paid for studio but when I click the studio bar the whole app freezes :/

Yet another grab for your money

New "studio" button is in the way. Not only is this unwanted, but it takes up valuable space on the menu bar, hoping you will tap it to spend $10. Otherwise, once you get past the very annoying popup advertisements (and you thought that paying for the app meant no ads!) the vocal effects work very well. I have used this successfully with audiobus and usb interfaces.

Used to be better

App kept crashing and lost recordings. Update seems to have fixed this but in app purchases have to be restored every time. Finished products are not playing back the way they sounded before exporting. Very very frustrating. $20 for the app, $60 for a mic and nothings working like it used to. Please fix this app!!!!

Very Annoying Problems with Update!!

I love this app and use it practically everyday but as of the last update with the new studio button when the app opens there is only one track available and it makes me repurchase full 4-track every single time. It seems others are having this problem too. I have to go through buying it and then when it asks if Im sure I want to purchase I cancel and the 4 tracks appear and I can continue working. I hope its fixed soon because I have to go through this process 2-3 dozen times a day. The other alarming thing is every single recording is cut up, stuttering and distorted. Nothing plays cleanly anymore. Nothing has changed in my workflow or how I record so I dont believe its an input problem although I do notice while Im recording the app is stuttering the signal in some way. Something is obviously and I hope its fixed soon because it makes working on the app almost unmanageable. Also Ive noticed that when arming a track with the record function that it idles for quite some time saying that its optimizing. It takes way too long to optimize. I hope you guys sort this out. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but I really do love this app and have used it since day one and its kind of like a best friend that I can rely on to catch any idea with. Its always with me and I love that I can take a pretty incredible recording device anywhere. Anyone who has had issues with previous versions I dont think took enough time to figure out best ways to use and record with the app. Its not complicated to figure out for anyone use to working with 4 tracks, logic, Protools. I use it as a sketch pad not a full fledged daw but I can tell you that the quality of some recordings Im really impressed with especially with a little compression, eq and reverb. So just frustrated at the moment and trying to make you guys aware. One more thing: Bare with me but one of my main gripes with this app is theres no undo/redo function for recordings. Because of the little buttons its so so easy to hit record when you dont mean to and record over something. Im a pretty careful dude and I cant tell you how many times Ive accidentally hit record when I didnt mean to and Im definitely a veteran on this thing. Lots of times you just forget which track is armed and other times its a slip of the finger. It can be really demoralizing at times and with all the other stuff you have going on in the app I feel it should be pretty doable to add. I know you only have so much screen space but I know you can find some someplace ;)! Please please please consider an undo/redo function. It would make a lot of sense!

A complete wonder!

Im not a professional singer but this app has certainly made my dream of recording myself a reality. The recording quality is great. Thanks for this app, my soul appreciates very much!!!!!!!

Tested for 2 weeks

Tracks do not align properly. When you switch from track to track, the recordings get all messed up and dont play like they should. Theres new loading time whenever youve freshly exported a song to the preset screen. This only happens the first time. That wasnt in the previous version of the app. But basically its mostly just the aligning part, you cant put together a song if the vocals dont align. Sometimes songs SKIP as if it were on a CD player. How is that even possible? This wasnt a problem before.

Nope

For the cost, this should be easier to figure out. Too complicated !!!!! Sad I wasted my bucks on this.

Amazing app

Recording my own stuff and singing lead over other recordings, this app rocks. Easy to use great effects.

Fantastic product

Cant believe how many hours I spent singing away in the garage with this app!! I honestly feel like a rockstar in my own right! I want to thank the makers of this app and for doing a fantastic job!

Great if theyd consistently update

Ive had this app for about a year and used it almost daily with my other music apps. Problem is since the first iOS 8 update they havent updated Vocalive and it no longer communicates with audiobus. Vocalive is great for creating effects combos to use with other apps but audiobus is THE MAIN AUDIO ROUTING PROGRAM AVAILABLE. Vocalive no longer being compatible due to lack of updates has completely removed it from my set up and now its just money wasted until they update :/

Release an audio is update already!!!

Title speaks for itself. Release an audio is update!!!!!!!!

Horrible Update!

Simply a mess! 1. Doesnt allow me to save effects on a track 2. Doesnt include Audiobus SDK 2.1b1(This makes Vocalive not compatible with the current version of Audiobus) 3. Studio section of Vocalive is really annoying and needs to be either removed or have a hidden option for studio section in settings. Good Luck to all aspiring musicians out there!

Why

I paid $ my money for it and you guys asking me to pay again and remove everything on it I cant get no fx and more What the ..., This is illegal I want my money back

Not for serious musicians.

The effects all sound decent for fooling around but theres occasional popping and skipping (on my iphone 5c even) and a lot of the effects sound low-fi and tinny. If I could get rid of the skipping it could be a four star app but even then the effects, take chorus for example, are still pretty shabby compared to quality of even a cheap app like singaling. Add the fact its $19.99 and youll realize IK multimedia are greedy and make low quality apps at high prices for people who dont know any better.

Dont buy this app!

They keep wanting more money for effects that you expect to be included. I want my money back. They are refusing to post negative reviews about their scam of a app. I will be very surprised if this is able to be viewed.

Fun app,

ITS A GREAT APP BUT I CANT FIGURE OUT WHY WHEN I EXPORT MY SONG IT HAS NO SOUND! IT CAN ONLY BE LISTENED TO THROUGH EARPHONES! S.O.S
