Definitely wouldn’t recommend and is time consuming. Maybe if I wasn’t a musician this wouldn’t bother me as much but because the name of the app is ACAPELLA I would assume that there wouldn’t be timing issues with the recordings. Basically the audio and video don’t match up AT ALLLLLLLL when you put in the recordings together. Keep in mind, there’s a new metronome feature on this app so after making the first recording there’s no need for the metronome because I would be going off the first video. I have NO IDEA what it is but it definitely is not my headphones because they’re brand new. I come to record my second video and after hearing the finished product of the second video - it’s COMPLETELY out of time and does not fall in with the initial recording. I recorded my first video WITH MY HEADPHONES and the audio came out great. Basically, the music I would be playing calls for careful counting and splitting (for you drummers/drum corps folks). Because of COVID-19, I wanted to try something new and post a video of me playing a bass line excerpt. There’s so many extra useless features like filters and watermarks when Mixcord should have focused on actual music-making and ease of access features. I also wanted to make use of the guide music that would have been really useful to listen to while recording, but for some reason Acapella only uses Apple Music songs that require a subscription which I’m not paying for to play more than 30 seconds of the song I want.

This app is also only available on mobile, which I find annoying because my phone’s mic quality isn't what you would call good. There isn’t an editor where you can move tracks around or have a part that appears for only part of the song. Now that I’ve used the app more, I’ve found out how limited this app is. Being able to hear my other recorded parts while I record is what caught my interest. When I first tried out the app, I thought it was really useful to create music covers with multiple parts, so I bought the yearly subscription to be able to record for more than 30 seconds, tolerating the price. I’d happily give this app 5 stars if the In-app purchases page was truthful at it really was a one time purchase of 7.99 for all the features. greed in action, making it harder than it has to be for musicians and artists to find their voice. Sad to see reviews of people that paid the previous one time purchase which has apparently been voided since they changed the terms to a monthly subscription as well. Even if it’s a steep purchase price, you’d have the tool on your phone to mess around with whenever you felt like getting creative.

If this was like iReal Pro and only asked for a one time purchase it would be much more worth while. You are better off investing your money in sound equipment and a DAW because you’d have those long term to record on rather than be stuck paying a subscription to a phone app.

If you can afford shelling out $50 a year it’s great! However most students and musicians don’t have money for a looping app they just want to experiment with. This is a fantastic app that allows people to be creative and collaborate in all sorts of ways, however this is an awful option for students and artists who just want to experiment.
