StudioMini - Music Recorder App Reviews

If there was even a single tutorial on how to use this it would be sooooo awesome yummy

Great app to express music creativity so easy to work with

I downloaded this during covid when my flute ensemble couldn’t get together and would record three of the parts in our quartet pieces and then play along with that recording. It was the closest I could get to playing with my fellow flute players at the time. The app is so simple to use. I tried this with more complicated apps and got so lost in trying to figure out how to work them I gave up. But this little gem is perfect. I hope they keep it going. I’d be more than happy to pay for it.

My first purchased this app in 2017 and loved it. I've been trying to mix down some songs to upload to my computer and it no longer works. There is no way to get any help as their website isn't working at the time I wrote this. UPDATE: the company reached out to me to offer their assistance which is awesome.

No Bluetooth for playback. Too bad. Useful app but quickly becoming less so.

I have recorded great songs using this app

I’ve been using StudioMini for 10 years. It’s very easy to use. But something I just discovered: bums me out that the app won’t connect with my wireless Bluetooth headphones that I’ve paired with my iPhone; All my other audio apps do, Spotify, podcasts, etc. My iOS is up to date, what gives? Also, after 10 years, I’m still hoping for an update that would allow user to change tempos of the pre-recorded loops. Simplicity and ease of use makes it worthwhile, but it would be a GREAT app with a few

I have been using this app since day 1 and continue to use this more often than any for quick ideas. I’m from the portastudio cassette days and this is the digital version. Keep it simple. Faster and easier than GarageBand. I’m also always surprised by quality I get just using the iPhone mic. And add drum loops, for 5 or 10$?! I paid 1k for a multitrack tape deck years ago!

Doesn’t work with Bluetooth headphones. I’m guessing it hasn’t been updated in a while. Makes a near perfect app not really useable. Bummer

I have done a complete pre production on a CD with this app. Highly recommend it However, it sometimes does not send the email when I send it. May talks upto 2 days or longer to go through.

The app is off the hook if you have a Roland micro cube with its aux input jack to plug into and record to backing beats of every genre at your choice of BPM. I recorded some random chops on my guitar and recorded it with the app. Totally AWESOME!!

Fun to use but every time I try to email a recording it says set up email and it won’t let my from my phone. I was under the impression that this can all be done be phone

the audio quality is great and it is very user friendly but i wish that it had a way for you to line in your guitar or mic and maybe a couple effects on each channel.😀

I've used this app for years. The new update messes up your recording when it mixes the song and when you email it. There's no way for me to share my music. Garbage.

I've been using StudioMini to practice & rough draft for a decent amount of time now.

This was a very cost effective app that was perfect for my humble needs. The app developed a bug and while it did take 7 months to fix it, they did fix it. They were very responsive to messages. It works great again.

I usually don't rate stuff but I figured I'd throw the developers a bone because this app is really handy. No bells and whistles, just a good interface, and it runs well.

I’ve had this app on multiple iOS devices and have enjoyed using it. Simple interface, file system, and sound quality is good.

I was using this app. Recently lost my phone therefore losing all recordings. Would love a way to recover recordings. Also would like to be able to cut begins of full recordings so to start over you didn’t have to stop & erase/loose focus.

Great little app. I use it every day for ideas especially when I’m not in my studio.

You can’t punch in and you can’t really mix. But it gets it down.

I’ve used this app to capture ideas that have ended up on albums and singles and more importantly most often prompted even better ideas. Someday I’d like to release the things I’ve recorded with it.

I’ve tried a bunch of recording apps and this one is by far the best. It not only sounds the best but is very user-friendly. The mic sounds amazing!

This is the app I was looking for, simple and very easy to use. I think it’s a great app to layer some ideas or even practicing solos with the guitar, voice harmonies etc... I love it.

I was around when the Fostex 4-track tape deck was revolutionary. To think I can do it all with an iPhone now is mind blowing. This app is the perfect solution for comping song ideas anywhere or anytime.

I have used this for a year and don’t use my Tascam any more. I wish I could have 2 of them on my phone. I would like to be able to organize the songs in an order. Also I would like to be able to text songs to friends but you can not

Awesome! Easy to use and less cumbersome than Garage Band. Wish you could pan tracks- that’s the only thing

Needs panning feature please...

Thank you so much for taking care on this wonderful app. StudioMini has been with me for a long time and is very useful for my writing songs and even my musical projects.

I have done a complete pre production on a CD with this app. Highly recommend it

This thing is perfect!! Basic, great drum grooves, no bells or whistles to slow you down when capturing a fleeting idea! LOVE IT!!!!

Love it. Great app to record demos or just noodle around with sounds. File export could be better, and make sure you back up your jams. Recently upgraded a phone and lost everything! Still a very solid app though.

I love the app ive boughten it even for others. Do you think its worth making it play over blue tooth. Bands might buy it even more!
