"VoKey is a Sampler and Keyboard. It can also be used to control or be controlled by another App by using the Virtual Midi feature. So, let's have a look at it and its features. To record a sound, you have to use the built in microphone on your iDevice or an Audio interface. You can also import (and export) samples by using iTunes or the Wifi file sharing. Note that an AudioBus feature would be really great... Once your recorded sample is be analyzed, it will be displayed as a "paint" waveform. 2 colours: Red & Blue. These colours will help you to edit your sample very fast. For example, you will be able to Map to the keyboard all the Blue segments of your waveform, to delete all the Red ones, or to switch to the next segment... Save your Sample when you are ok with it. You will be also able to Timestretch, Normalize, Reverse, loop your samples and add a Reverb (13 presets). You will be able to record your performances and save them (Unfortunately, you can't share your performances). VoKey is very well done. You can use it to create a sound very quickly, a new instrument and or play voice chords.... I would really like to have the AudioBus feature. A master volume would also be good because when you use VoKey to control another App or as an expander, it can be a little annoying without a master volume. VoKey is a Super App, it can also be rated as a Killer App, it only depends on your expectations of it. I think that VoKey will be in my recording gear for the Peace Project.... So I rate it as a Killer App even if it lacks some features..."
