Saw this come out a few days ago, gave it a try. I really like what he's done so far (via his dev team based out of Berlin). This is the sort of thing Propellerhead/RS should have done with Reason Compact - just a fantastic mobile sampler. It's a 9 channel sampler to start:

I agree it needs external MIDI control support, but Android? We'll see. He said he's considering it but there's tons of issues.

Looks good. Well thought out. They've done a good job on it for sure.

Can Reason Studios hire them to fix up Reason Compact?! :roll:

Yeah it seems a bit buggy right now. But it’s getting frequent updates - several in the past week. I’m sure they’ll work it out.

The problem with phone apps is that the input bandwidth is incredibly low. It's already low enough using a mouse and keyboard on a computer. You've got two fingers and a tiny little screen to finesse. Even on a tablet it's annoying for me, I feel so restricted that I've given up using any kind of app for music making within 5-10 minutes and just opened up Reason.



I think more efforts should be made to increase the input bandwidth rather than decreasing it.

Just had an update from Andrew. They're aware of the crashing and are working on fixes, but they encourage those experiencing the issues to report the details (such as phone model) to them at: https://www.flipsampler.com/contact

He also said they are working on MIDI keyboard controller support, but that will come after they squash all of the bugs.

Compact seems to have been left out in the cold ....... Not the first time for a Propellerhead/Reason Studios mobile App. Glad I didn't buy any IAP's now. It's a shame because it had a lot of potential and was really good. But I always thought they dropped the ball going the IAP route. Water under the bridge now by the looks of it :(
