What's new in Acid 1.5.6
Editor's review
Download the latest Acid application, version 1.5.6, compatible with Windows 10/11 (using emulators such as Bluestacks), Android devices. This free Music & Audio app is developed by Paul Klemstine and is easy to download and install.
Previous versions, including 1.5.6, 1.5.4, are also available. If you need help or have any problems, please let us know.
Description
Draw in notes, adjust the sound parameters with knobs, auto create random patterns.
(Check out the app "Acid 2" for TWO TB303 synths! It's a work in progress,
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.acid2 )
The export button will try and save the song's WAV file and FLAC file to the external sdcard(can't in Android 10?), and then upload the FLAC file to the Interplanetary Filesystem (IPFS), for sharing with friends.
Conversion of the song to flac and uploading can take many minutes, you'll only know when it's done when a web browser pops up with a link to your song you can share. Leave the app open and be patient! IPFS is not a permanent storage solution, so your song will vanish when it becomes unpopular, download any audio you want to keep from the link before it's gone.
The In/Out buttons will save the 'source code' of the song, so you can cut/paste/share it as text.

*** I think this works on Android 10 and 11! Thank you for the patience as I work out the bugs, ***

5 ★ Very unique and fun tool for acid groove making, you can export them as wav and then add additional filters to really make them shine. UI is very mysterious though, still can't really work out some of the features, any tutorial or additional 'hints' from creator would be very appreciated.
4 ★ Using on an Samsumg S9 it fails to fill the screen properly, occupying a postage stamp sized portion of screen centre (you can stretch but...) but it does sound great and you can get a great acid sound in seconds which is fantastic. Some of the knobs work in an inverse fashion, oddly. Sort out the screen size and add MIDI export and this is an excellent little tool together something out of your head and into ears. Worth the full 5 stars if these niggles are sorted.
5 ★ Nice way to come up with 303 patterns. The interface allows creation of patterns in a way that's a little different than your standard sequencer. What would be an amazing addition, is the ability to export the midi. Nice job!
4 ★ Great sounding app. Sadly let down by the awful interface that is very hit and miss when you need to change the size and position. EDIT - thanks for your reply, Paul. I'd jump at the chance to help if I were a developer but alas I'm not.
5 ★ Good app. User interface needs a bit of work but the sounds are great and that's the hard part. I got this to build with android studio and changed the initial zoom to. . 70 to fit on my screen properly. Looking forward to tweaking the ui a bit.
5 ★ What an amazing app! I loved the acid house raves in the 1980s and 90's and this makes it possible for me to relive the amazing times i had! Well wicked!
5 ★ I find it hard to use but still love it to bits... Always been an acid head so love just messing around with it to see what I can do!!!!
5 ★ This app is fantastic. It's so fun for some quick loops on the go. I wish it would stretch out a bit more to make use of the full display space
5 ★ This app is enough! I love it, reminds me of Josh Wink or Keoki. I wish it would be able to save sessions. Thanks.
5 ★ Amazing app, Acid was a little difficult to use at first but the devoloper has sent me the required information and now it makes perfect sense
5 ★ excellent little app,eny one who loves the sound of original acid tones,,will really get on with this......A+....love it
2 ★ seems great but app starts very small then I expand it then it becomes too big, so I don't see the whole interface. I have latest android OS on Huawei Mate 20 Pro. But sounds great!
3 ★ Finding it so hard work out how this thing works. Such a shame, sounds great, just can't work it out
4 ★ Powerful tool for acid beats. The UI could be more accessible though.
4 ★ great app but is there away to save a track, like record a few minutes? could you possibly make a YouTube tutorial?
