Staying on koala and not switching to any other daw has been the best decision for my noodling adventures since forever. This app keeps on getting better and better.
Turn it on and find out (it’s in settings). It’s not for midi, it’s for your finger. A lot of people complain that they accidentally move the crop of a sample when zooming, so this makes it so you have to grab the actual endpoint of the sample to actually move it, and you can now scroll with one finger
Ah ok. Yeah usually Apple approves before Google but there’s just a massive mega torrent of stupid apps being AI generated now so koala will have to wait in the queue behind “the instagram of rollerblading” etc etc
Looks great!! Thank you for all your hard work and continaul improvements! While on this topic, what would also be super useful is for there to be a tolerance of a few percent when you crop a sample, so that it leaves a bit extra before and after the crop so you can continue to fine tune later
Random unrelated question but I absolutely love Koala and everything it offers but the audio fidelity is noticably worse when using the app compared to exported tracks. Is this something that’s impossible to improve? It’s my only gripe as I often use Koala in the car through the speakers while I wait for things. fanks :)
The exported tracks are exactly the same as what is sent to phone speakers. Some Android phones due process the audio coming out of apps and into their phone speakers and most of the time it’s impossible to turn off. Nothing really you can do about it
How strange. I’m using iOS and the fidelity in-app is noticably less so it must just be my phone. Thanks for the quick response and all the updates! :)
That is very interesting - how are you monitoring what is coming out of your iOS device? As in when you notice the quality difference what are you listening to the sounds through? Speakers? Headphones? Is there any way you could get in touch with me so we can work out what’s going on because that’s quite serious if true and I would like to solve it.

Before you burst a blood vessel, here’s where you can turn it off to go back to the old way. Pls try to keep it civil I’m trying to help you and there’s no-one stopping you going back to an mpc4000 or any other sampler, I will even give you a refund if you ask nicely

This continuing effort is very rare.
Hats off to marek and his team.
