    I thought it is maybe a good idea to make a list with good (free) audio apps on android.

    Perfect Ear: The best free Ear Training program i found, extra sounds and custom exercises cost money, the rest free
    has for sure an iOS version too!

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.evilduck.musiciankit

    Goldwave: Advanced Audio editor with FX and record function, just like the windows program
    (New version has limited file saving - 20 files can be saved for free, might find an older version, which has unlimited)

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.goldwave.GoldWave

    AIMP: One of the audio player, has no ads, just works like the windows version

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aimp.player

    WhoSampled: huge database of who sampled from who, should already be well know.

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.whosampled

    Shazam: Totally forgot about this one, its great at IDing music, like very good at it.

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.shazam.android

    Chord Cloud: This is not completely free, but in free mode it throws some cool chord progressions around in various style, it has also a good enough randomize function, should be good to get some inspiration. They have also a webpage to use it in the browser (https://chordchord.com)

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chordchord.generator

    (VLC: should be a well know video/audio player on windows and LiNUX)

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.videolan.vlc

    Feel free to add your fav apps on android.

    Sunvox is def not free, but this list is solid af ^^

    I've got three to add - none of these are free, but they're all definitely worth it, IMO!

    Mazetools Soniface: SONIFACE.jpg

    Super dope app/sequencer/experimental "daw"/groove....form? There is a free version, if you'd like to check it out! Also on steam, for croiss platformin'! Can't explain it very well, sorry, but worth download, for sure!

    Mazetools Mutant:
    mutant.jpg

    So, obviously from the same devs/company - and somewhat similar, in ways to Soniface - but this one allows collabs in real time, with your friends! So much fun just messing around, but it's actually super complex and has deep algorithms to coordinate all the functions. A lot to learn!

    Koala:
    koals.jpg

    Okay so if you haven't heard/tried this one out yet, you are missing out for sure! I have an sp-404a that should be here, hopefully tomorrow....but while waiting, i've found this app! I think it was like $3 or $4? But in all honesty, it ALMOST does everything the sp-404 line of roland samplers can do, but thru software, obvs, and often, it seems, more efficiently! Sample from literally anywhere, with the phone mic, or import sounds, or what i like to do is: Split screen the app with my browser, go on splice, and "browse" thru their samples that i think i could use. Then, using split screen, start sampling the samples of the samples! For free, and build dem beats.

    If anyone gets or has mutant, lmk, would love to jam with someone else!


    [edit - oh shoot, totally forgot, Honorable mention (free!): Old Time Radio, paired with Dolby On for recording it. Have found some amazing samples in the past, just letting it roll :)
