Downloading it right now mate! Thanks for the update!
Why did it have to go up to £4! I nearly got it when it was 59p on first release I'm gutted I didn't get it before.
Jay, I don't think it was ever that cheap. I think the price has been fairly stable. Besides, 4 pounds is a bargain for this program, its one of the best, if not the best musical instruments available for the iphone/touch and the new copy/paste makes it even better.
This app is a "Must Have",great sounds that deserve a lot of fun..and with the free update is even better!.
Blimey, now that's what you call an update!
I think this is the best sample-based instrument app out there, by far. Plus, the developer is dedicated to listening to his users, adding requested features, and fixing any bugs; he has created a nice online community.
Thumbjam was one of the most impressive new release (V1.0) music apps I have encountered, and this update takes it even further. No, its cheap, but in this case you get your money's worth.
