New Smule app! Rates a negative 10

Viplipalone

You need to fix this app where when we join someone on a song I can use my own settings not the ones they choose to use. There is no way to use my settings when I join someone. When a join begins we should be able to change the settings to our own settings. This is the worst change I’ve ever had to deal with since joining Smule. I’m sure no one will address this or even read this so I’m probably wasting my time but at least I tried. Lisa Fair BSN, RN,BC,MSN

No debería desnudarnos del filtro con el que grabamos.

En vez de eso, podrían tener varios modelos de videos y también debería poder borrarse los que creamos y no nos gustaron como quedaron.. pero que los antiguos videos que hicimos en smule Con la confianza de un filtro, vengan ustedes y nos lo quiten ante quien quiera, con pretexto de editar Es una falta de respeto

I love how this app can harness the creativity in making Smule videos. Many of the previous problems have been addressed and I’m happy about that but I still wish that the app doesn’t crash every so often and makes me lose my hard work. I hope that problem with crashing can be fixed soon.

HORRIBLE!!!!

you’d have to be a rocket scientist to figure this out! confusing and not easy to use. would love to see this integrated in the original app. this is more trouble than it’s worth.

Stick to the singing!!!

Smule, please please please please please go back to what made this app amazing, the singing!!! First of all, instead of creating trash like this, how bout giving us the ability on the fly to couple effects? Like how it used to be, WHILE you are singing??? How bout allowing us to use more than one effect on different parts of the song? For example, grunge on parts and delay on others??? How bout letting us make a solo, and if we want it to turn into a duo/duet the app will remove any part twos or whatever automatically? How about getting more licenses for songs instead of removing our uploaded arrangements??? Ooh, I know! How about adding the ability to upload and create arrangements from our phones or tablets finally??? You very lucky that the voice app and others don’t have the popularity to shut you down yet. But remember MySpace? Yahoo? All it takes is for the right endorsements and a more comprehensive app to come out. Just sayin.

A now experienced user’s view...

Let me first say that Smule has a lot to learn about change management. This never should have been so jarring to their user base. In fact, if handled properly their users would have been clamoring for it. Instead Smule got tons of bad reviews and lost goodwill from their otherwise very loyal users. Communication is key to driving adoption!!! Zero stars for this. Now that I’ve spent time using styles in Smule I don't want to view a video without them. The WOW factor has increased exponentially. The visual and audio effects are wonderful. The user experience, however, is still lacking. Simple common functions such as open, edit and save are hard to find or require several steps to use. There is no in-app help to speak of and the icons are not typical. Navigation is a mystery at first and not at all intuitive. The flow to create a style is entirely backward. Although based on and applied to categories established in the uploaded songs, users are not given the ability to view the categories in uploaded songs from within Smule unless they uploaded it nor in Styles when selecting a song to create their style. Instead they have to find an existing performance –blindly searching through what can be many performances by other Smulers of the many different uploaded versions of a song, before they can create a new style. What Studio does at this point is the reason this review has any stars. It allows the user to, category by category, create an appealing visual and audio effects template that can be applied to any song. After, however, the inability to simply save, retrieve and edit takes away stars. Opening a style does not put the original version in edit mode. It creates a new style altogether. Even if only minor changes are needed, the app will not allow the user to open, edit and save the original Style. It forces users to create a new version of the style-requiring them to again define a name, tags and icon but allowing them to exactly match the original. This creates a maintenance burden on the user as they have to find and remove styles that may appear to be duplicates but are instead revisions of the original. Though potentially named the same, and perhaps created using an existing recording, updates are not applied to existing recording versions using the style. And despite their role in creating a style, previously recorded performances can never have that style applied within Smule. After publishing a style the app only allows the user to create a new style or sing using the style they just created rather than returning them to the app’s initial landing page so they can choose their next action The user must close the app to get back to the initial landing page. So, lots of potential but difficult to get to by casual users.

not happy

LyssaParker

please go back to how it was............ this is annoying and i’m mad i bought a years worth of the app just to see i can’t change effects while i sing.

Geeeeez Smule ...

Can you not get anything right anymore? I was forced to update Style Studio because the version I had was incompatible with the style I wanted to use. Well ... the app crashes immediately upon opening since the latest update. Thanks, Smule!

New effects format
