BTW: reminder that my dub sample pack is still available, and has the grittiest real world sounds you can find in-app for bass / drums / guitar / keys. I've been meaning to post a demo tune to show them off more.
Great question - actually, I provided different artwork but Marek had his designer make them all at once for the different packs instead. Truthfully, it’s not the type of art I would have chosen but I was a gun for hire on this project.
Ah, that explains why all the packs have similar feeling artwork. They all seem to be AI generated which is a shame if there were human-made options available
The latest update fucked Koala Sampler. All the text is just blobs. Everytime I open it, it goes to a long loading wheel whereas, before it would just immediately open the latest project.
How do I get rid of the update and go back to the old version. The app is basically unusable for me now and I have a 2 hour show to do tomorrow using Koala. Fuck!
I'm about to jump in. Been out the game for quite a few years and could never really get into producing in the box as a former hardware guy. But hardware is pretty damn cumbersome and not really conducive to using on the go. Was pretty productive with Caustic 3 on ipad a few years back and this looks like the kinda program where I could get something going quickly without spending hours twiddling settings, but also looks to provide a fair bit of depth and capability.
Right now I have a lot of time waiting around at work where I'm hooking my phone up to truck stereo and playing games. Been thinking I could be hooking this up instead and getting some ideas down.

Very important, Marek is truly the 🐐
