DJ SoundBox Pro App Reviews

Love it but

If we could record the tracks together would be 5 stars NEEDS MORE KITS

Awesome!

Does exactly what I wanted. To be able to quickly and easily load mp3 files to different pads. So many other programs would seem to do this but dont. Sweet! Well I just had the program not play any of my imported samples. Out of the blue. Tried resetting everything and would not work. Had the reinstall program and samples and then worked fine. Still though, a bit worrisome. Removed one star. I hope this wonderful program gets an update!

Lifesaver!

Got this app after trying to make Soundboard work for a live theater show. Works great, the buttons are MUCH more responsive, easy to make custom sound sets and rename them, seems stable so far. Best of all, I couldnt figure out a feature and emailed the developer, he got back to me within 15 minutes. Not the norm, Im sure but at least he does answer his email.

Pretty Much Worthless

iTunes files refuse to loop. Dropbox imported files work... as long as you never stop running the app. If you do, and you re-run the app... none of the files downloaded from dropbox will play... and worse... there is no way to fix it. Very upsetting. The author also makes it very difficult, if not impossible, to contact him. I tried. This version was far from ready. I now have a useless app.

Wont work

The new version wont even load up. Whats up with that?

Will NOT load

Bought the app and it transferred to iPod when synced with computer. iPod shows app but when you click on it it says "loading" but then goes back to home screen. WASTE OF MONEY!!!

we can use it

Good application, but it will be great if you will add pitch bend buttons - for sync with external mix. p.s. prev. design was much better.

Great for live gigs

Ive had this app for a few months now, and I use it live with my band to trigger samples for intros, bass drops (we do several Korn sings), etc. Linked to Dropbox, its indispensable. I run my iPad through a DI box and into the PA. This app is EVERYTHING I need. Awesome!!!!!!

Perfect app

Bought this a while ago thinking it would be a nice app for the AV tool box. Finally found a use for it for sound FX for our radio drama and its the perfect thing! Love it! Would love to see more SFX for purchase, but successfully using the Dropbox connection to import all my files.

Unusefull app...

UI is really sucks… Buttons are really really tiny not use full...

Great potential, needs to work kinks out

I purchased this to trigger live sound effects for theater productions. Ultimately I think it will be very helpful. A couple of kinks/suggestions for the developer: * the app crashes on me if I try to save after making more than one change of any kind. For example, if I rename a sound and then load another sound, and then save, it crashes. If I rename a sound, save, then load another sound, then save again, all good. Ive noticed its only when I make multiple changes within the same save if that makes sense to people. * the color coding is potentially cool, but the buttons only change colors when the sound is playing. It would be helpful to me if the colors could appear while the app is not playing anything. So say you have to trigger three different sounds in close succession, it would be great if you could see the colors _before_ triggering them. * Id like the ability to rearrange sounds after Ive loaded them. i.e. shift their positions. * Id like the ability to scrub forward or back when a sound is playing. * the Dropbox link feature is great!! Thanks! * the link pads and loop features are also great! * with the echo feature, it would be nice if you could save individual sounds to have echo, as opposed to having it be a global setting, where all sounds are either echoed or not. What if I wanted one sound 1/4 echo and then something else not echo? Would be nice to individually assign echo to the sounds. * its weird to me to have a menu marked preferences when the only options inside are record as audio or record as sequence. Doesnt seem to justify having a full preferences menu, Id recommend adding some other preferences people might want to switch around. * what does the export menu do? Couldnt figure it out. * and on that note, I couldnt find a FAQ or help/instructions anywhere, that would be nice to add perhaps in preferences. * the stock gun sounds are ok, I purchased the Rhodes pack and wasnt very impressed, it was a decent sound but really I dont think that (or any of the other instrumental packs) would be practical for most people. More of a novelty, Id say. The real value of this app I feel is the ability to load ones own sounds. Thanks and I hope some of this is helpful to other users as well as the developer. Overall opinion: worth the purchase and am hanging in there for a bit more stability and improvements to current features.

Superior application

Although I am not a dj, this app is very helpful where soundboards are needed. Love it! Well done development!

joke

keeps crashing! wether Im loading sounds or saving work it crashes everytime.

Crashes so much...

...that I cant tell if it works well or not. Moving on to something else.

Buggy, unusable

This app should do - in theory - exactly what I was looking for. In practice, a few minutes after loading a soundtrack it stops working. After fighting with it for days and reloading them again and again, I gave up. Other features are broken as well (e.g., alias).

Broken

This used to be a very useful app, until it was recently updated. Now it is very buggy. I can’t rename files, it randomly will not save work, and a lot of other functionality is lost. I hope there will be an update soon, as it was a great app for productions.

Graet for tracks

My band uses tracks. Works great, drummer hits the song he wants to start and off we go.

Can’t import your own sounds

The app features described dont actually appear in the app, and the screenshots don’t match the current version either. I could find no way to import any custom sounds or tracks. While the description and images show you can import from iTunes, that functionality no longer appears in the app.
