Needs import from iPhone library !!

Well , you got the more expensive 4track App beat because you can import Mp3s from a computer. But its still a pain in the ars. You Should be able to import directly from your Iphone library. Please update !!!

Fix this app please!

-Crashes -wifi import fails -buggy overall... Do not buy!!!

Bought for use with PRS GuitarBud

I bought GigDaddy after purchasing a PRS GuitarBud to use my electric guitar with on the road. PRSs promotional materials say that it works with Apples VoiceMemo, but only until you look closer does it say that you cant get live monitoring unless you use another third-party app. As such, GigDaddy was recommended as one of those apps. Sadly, the live monitoring, while allowing me the choice to set it to "stereo" (despite the text turning red--is that a warning or an indication of failure?), I still can only receive my guitar in mono (L). Id have rated this higher except that it doesnt make sense to me why, if during playback, the "mono" guitar will become stereo, why you cant at least give me the monitor in stereo as well. I feel like an old man with a walkman listening to baseball games with one headphone bud in his ear. Please please please please please make stereo live monitoring available even for mono devices (i.e., double-up/mirror the sound to the off-channel ear) in your next update. Other than that, for composing, GigDaddy is quite dandy! Thanks!

FINALLY

Many people, including myself, have been looking for a way to record while being able to monitor via the speaker on the iPod touch 2g. FINALLY this program does this. There is a button that activates the speaker even when you have a mic plugged in. It does other good things too, but that is the critical difference that makes this program so awesome.

Very cool app, accessible with VoiceOver screen reader

Does what it claims. Handy jamm recorder for musicians or those who like to play with loops. The latest update, v1.t, ads some cool interface touch as well as reverb and chorus add-ons.

Well worth the price

This was the cheapest functional multitrack recorder I found, and although you can only mix four tracks at a time, you can mix down and target another project, so you have the ability to do several four track sessions and mix down to one final project. Id have given five if I hadnt found a bug in the beats section.

Bounce tracks bug

When I bounce tracks. The bounced track plays too fast. Does anyone else have this problem? Or is it just me? Tech support does not give answers. Very frustrating. This is one of the reasons I bought this app.

Not the one

Doesnt function like a mulitrack mixer. Couldnt synch tracks to click, couldnt get the clicks to line up vocals......AAARRGGHHH. Also, very glitchy. During recording the track would skip ahead and put everything out of time. Needs a LOT of work. What should we expect for the price and its an APP for a phone. Lessoned learned, dont ask your iPhone to do what a multitrack recording studio can do.

To-totally dig this app

I use this app pretty nearly every day. Ive used a bunch of different multi-track recording tools on the iPhone, and this is the one I keep coming back to. There are a few bugs, some things that need to be cleaned up, and a few features that a missing. One feature I would really love to see added is the ability to do file transfer through iTunes. The web interface works fine, but I dont always have the phone on the network, so it is just a clunky process to get it done. But a $3.00 app that can do more than the $400 4-track cassette recorder I had back in 1990? How can you complain?

Decent

Been good to me for rough demo recording, has some problems such as tracks sometimes not recording right. Upgrading to multitrack DAW.

Really?

Just bought this. Is there anyone who can figure out how to work it? Anyone? Any tutorials on this anywhere?

No Bluetooth

Very good app, just wont playback through Bluetooth speakers, like the gig baby does.

Terrible and unintuitive

This couldnt be any more lame. Waste!

It works great until it stopped working!

I found this app to be very useful and user friendly! Its great to have such a simplistic mobile way to work out ideahs and concepts. But just recenty it crashed, and now every time i attempt to reopen it, its crashes immidiately! I have faith that they will patch it soon enough, but in the mean time..so much for me writing new ideahs...and I guess i just cant listen to any of my past work either.. Good App, just please fix the crash error! :)

Gigdaddy

For an APP ON A PHONE, it comes in handy so well... Just use a headset... Sure it crashes or skips ahead sometimes, but for $4... Can you really complain that much?

Quite Nice

Its a very nice set up, but my problem was that I dont use standard multitrack environments very much, so Im still getting used to it. Vets of things like Audacity and Reaper should have no prob. Enjoy!

Some bugs that need to be fixed

Great recording app. They need to fix the mixdown aspect of the app. You can only mixdown to track 1. Also, you should be able to start a new recording at any part of the original recording, but you cant. You have to start from the beginning.

tech support

Good app it needs bug fixes its hard to lay tracks when it freezes please update make this app better!!!!

Not happy

It crashes and gets stuck in different modes just deleted!!!

GigDaddy is fully accessible with Voice Over

As of version 1.7, the VoiceOver support is excellent! This is an amazing multi-track recording studio/mixer on your iDevice. It offers the user features that would cost hundreds of dollars if they were trying to do this kind of recording on a PC.
