Boum Boum. Super !!!

Nice

Havent put it though a PA yet, but the headphone test is great. One minor gripe: I only wish the 16th notes would blink when active. Other than that, we have a winner.

Does what it says it would

Its pretty basic

Pretty good!

Very nice app! Additions I would like to see include the ability to export and landscape mode. Blinking LEDs like the original 808 would be sweet as well

Sounds great!

Cool ap, but I would like to be able to save more than just 6 patterns. Also, sound stops when the screen goes to sleep. Otherwise its a good start.

Stagnant

Will never evolve from a basic retro drum machine. Do not buy.

Quietness

It should not be a paid app it should be free for what you get very bad quality & sounds

Should be free

There a plenty of better free apps out there. Dont waste your money. Probably should have read the description better, but there are only 11 preset, tinny sounding drum sounds. Very limited. Not happy.

Not bad but Id like to see some updates.

Its a respectable app for what it does, hoping for some updates and/or innovations to keep it competitive with other drum machine apps out there. Swing would be nice, maybe an effect or two..

Silent

Couldnt get a single note to play. No audio. Waste of 2 dollars.

Finally!

Exactly what Ive been waiting and hoping for! Now I can delete all the other drum apps. Thank you for making a drum machine that does what I want a drum app to do on my iPhone. Great quality sounds, easy to use with a great interface .... the only thing missing is export to wav.

Banging beats!!

Very good sound, responsive and stable. Cant edit the sounds deeply, but its a tremendous steal at $1.99. Easily the best x0x-style beatbox app yet.

Omg!!

This app rocks the airy foundations of any music lovers soul. So easy to use and so many possibilities with this impressive beatbox, best one ive found so far. Thanks i808!!!

Awesome, sweet app

Its funny how much time I spend using this app. I even hooked it up to my computer to record my beats, lol. Great stuff.

Almost perfect but

This is a great little app but it could be perfect the sounfd are good but u can tume the drums u do have some conyrol in how they sound but not tuning i created beats fast and easy im very happy with it and it does remember what you created after you close the app but herr is my wish list for updates: Wishlist: 1) The ability to save and load your patterns with the tempo 2)the ability to have accents per instrument not just global accents 3) indepenfent volumes of the instruments per pattern 4) auto fill button 5) Ability to load your own samples 6) some of the instruments are either or, (clave or rim shot) ( maracas or handclap) I would like the option to have thwm all available 7) the ability to have 3 or 4 levels of accents per instrument 8) more patterns available im the screen at least 16 Now this is only a wish list to make it a full drum machine ready to use live and i would not mind paying 20 for an app like that i have beat maker and is great but not as easy as i808 In all i love i 808 and i recomend it!!! it be perfect if it could save and load the patterns with the assigned tempo, and maybe a few more samples or the ability to load your own. But remember youre im a phone!

Nearly Perfect

This is a fun app. Very easy to use. This is the easiest music app I have used. Here are the thing I hope for. 1. The ability to recorded and save. I know Blackout Labs are working on this feature so it WILL be here. 2. Needs more than 6 settings. I wish it had at least 10. 3. Some things are either or. And I wish you could do both. 4. The ability to change tone, tempo cct from setting setting. Add these and 5 stars no problem

Could be better

I like the sounds and you can save presets - but - it always defaults back to 150bpm. Maybe I havent found what it is good for yet. Right now its just a toy.

Just like the real thing!

If youve ever seen a real Roland 808, youll know that this is pretty much EXACTLY like the real thing, but it fits in your pocket, and it only costs 2 bucks! Great sounds, great interface.

Excellent

So much fun. Samples sound good. Well worth the price.

Great for users of all levels

I just started learning drums as a hobby from a friend and this tool really helps me. I use it to make the beats in my head and when I get to my friends house I play it for him to listen and all goes well. Its great for users of any level and the interface is just clean and simple, the way I like it.
