Hey Guys,
My name is Dan and I'm one of the creators of Riffstation. I saw all the activity so I thought I'd drop in and say hello. We're really excited about Riffstation and by the looks of it, so are some of you guys. There's 3 of us in Riffstation (Dan, Mikel and Martin) and we're all guitar players ourselves so we're on a mission to build the worlds most awesome guitar jam and practice tool. We still have some work to do to make it better, and feedback from you guys can really help us
so we really appreciate all of your opinions. We have a big V2 list internally right now and if you guys want to suggest any features or report any bugs, just drop us an email to
support@sonicladder.com.
If you guys have any questions about the tech behind Riffstation or questions in general, I'm happy to answer them
. There's a few questions above.
Not only is this not available on the AppStore, they're also so cheap, apparently, they don't want to pay Apple $100/yr to sign their software, in spite of charging 39 euro per copy, thus screwing their customers by asking them to relax their security settings and accept unsigned software. Unprofessional.
We are part of the Apple Developer Platform and we will have an AppStore version out very soon. We only launched on OSX a few weeks before Christmas and the problem was that Apple won't allow us to use our own activation system. As a result we have had to do a whole separate build using Apple's app verification system. This will be fixed soon
Here are a few clips for comparison. Original speed plus half-speed w/ ASD, Transcribe! & Riffstation (type 1 slowdown):

This was a good test. ASD really does sound great. We'll be continuing to make all of our algorithms better in future versions. Our whole thing is to have all of the tools working together (chords, slowdown, pitch, isolate) and as result, we have to process the audio slightly differently than if we were doing any one thing on it's own.
If you have any questions just let me know.
Cheers
Dan
