"As a professional producer always on the move, this app is a complete game-changer. The legendary MPC workflow is perfectly captured on the iPhone, and being able to record vocals and mix 64 tracks while on the train is insane. It's not just a toy; it's a legitimate studio in my pocket."

"I started with zero experience, but iMPC University made the learning curve so easy. The Spotify sampling and the Chop-shop editing are incredibly intuitive. I’ve already finished my first EP entirely on this app, and the sound quality of the built-in kits is top-tier industry standard."

Review Analysis

Insights from user reviews.

Sentiment Score

32%
Negative

Summary

The app receives predominantly negative feedback, primarily due to persistent issues with sample import, which users describe as frustrating and often broken with AudioCopy, iTunes, and inter-app sharing. Many users report frequent crashes, bugs, and a general lack of updates, with specific complaints about input lag on iPhone 15 and constant crashes on iPhone 14 Pro Max. While some appreciate its potential as a portable beat maker and its user-friendly interface, the lack of essential features like MPC swing, auto-chop, or 'FULL LEVEL' functionality, combined with poor developer support, leads many to feel the app is unusable or a 'money grab'.
