so fun! I play and record songs on a variety of formats and never really played with samplers because I found them complicated at least for me. koala is so easy to pick up and just experiment and have fun with. I doubt I could really have something in my head and make it exactly the way I intended, but I dont really think that's the point here. at least for me, it's more about working fast and exploring, which koala excels at.

this is a very good sampler. very detailed. but anytime I make adjustments, on the pitch, on the volume, release attack or tone, there is like a glitch, when the sample plays, there is like a crinkle sound that goes along with it like paper being crumpled up. this is with any song or with the basic sounds within the koala sample pack. it just ruins the whole production. edit: had to enable "Open SL (older devices)" my device is Samsung S25. this fixed the issue. I guess S25 is considered old.

Just stumbled on this app a couple weeks ago. Gotta say, it's the best sampler for android you'll ever find! I paid for the full version and paid for all the added features and if they release more features.....I'll be paying for those too! It's so intuitive I didn't even need a manual. It's so close to replacing my my entire DAW. Endless possibilities. Easy workflow. I can't get over how incredible it is. I've been creating source sounds on my PC and importing them to the app. 10X stars!!!!
