Voloco: Vocal Recording Studio Reviews

So, Voloco is crucial for any rapper or modernistic style vocal artist looking for new ways to record ideas or even create full projects. It’s very easy to use and you can get your music recorded quickly and efficiently with no sacrifice to your sound quality(as long as you have a little prior experience w/ recording). I’ve had a lot of fun with Voloco and have even recorded some impressive sounding vocals with it. I was having issues with some backing tracks volume during a few recording sessions that I couldn’t seem to get past. I would close out Voloco and come back to try again later. Sometimes it would work, sometimes it wouldn’t. That was pretty frustrating. Especially when the vocal track came out almost perfect, but couldn’t use it because the backing track would completely smother the vocals. However, I still managed to produce a pretty solid track out of Voloco and I’m very happy with it. The only other issue I’ve had was trying to upload my song to Voloco for others to listen to. I got as far as agreeing to legal stuff and hitting upload but nothing ever happened. I’m a little bummed about that because I’m proud of the track and would like to share with other artists for feedback and possible collaboration opportunities. I bought the year subscription so I hope to see these things fixed soon and look forward to completing more projects in the future. Thanks.

this app is very good with auto tuning. I would give it five stars, but I selected a beat for one song and I didn’t want that beat on it anymore but it stayed there. I tried multiple things to try and turn it off, but it still stayed. I couldn’t change it. So at the beginning of every thing that I started, there will be a bit of piano. I didn’t want that. I was finished with it. I deleted the beat. Now I still have to pause it when I start the auto tune. If you want to make a song get song maker record this into your computers recorder, then record that into song recorder. It is actually called music maker. Music maker is good for song making, and Vocolo is good with auto tuning. If you can combine them, like the way I said you could, then there you have it! Your auto tuned song. So after you get Vocolo, het music maker. And remember, DO NOT use the beat setting on Vocolo, because it will mess up your recordings that are just to have funny noises. Get Vocolo, don’t turn on the beats.

So I truly do like Voloco , really it is a good app but I haven’t recorded a song yet due to an issue. I’ve been trying to get my beat onto Voloco but but the file looks faded and every time I click on it nothing happens, it really makes me mad because this is the only app that is easy to use for me at least, the other apps just do not let me do specific things but Voloco does but because of the fact I can’t use my beat it does not work at all and I can’t record a song, I also did try playing the beat with a background app along with my lyrics but the beat is just way too quiet because the mic turns down the beats volume by a lot. So I’m going to give Voloco a 4 out of 5 because it’s an amazing app but I just cannot record a song with my beat and it really irritates me. So until I can actually use my beat ima keep it at 4 stars but I’ll put it at 5 when the beat actually works

I wouldn't consider subscribing to an app like this unless I used it every day, but I would definitely pay $40 or maybe $50 for a "Lifetime Subscription" option. I have the original set of IAPs, and that's enough to meet my needs, but I do like the more recent additions. I'm not a rapper who consistently releases demos recorded with an iPhone, I'm more of a musician/producer who collects iPad apps and likes to dabble with vocals. I don't know how many times I'm going to use this app in the next year, but if I could just "add it to my collection" then I'll be glad to own it. I do have some $100 purchases that have become outdated, and I wouldn't be surprised if something better than this app comes along, but hey, that's cool with me.

I’ve been using Voloco for about a over year. I love the presets they already have. Definitely solid. One thing I would like for them to do in the near future is go more advanced with how your able to mix your vocals, like being able to use two at the same time, for example natural auto tune with noise reduction, while being able to tune up or down reverb or whatever effect you want. Also being able to cut out certain frequencies yourself that way you have more control over how you sound. That’s something I would definitely pay for and even something I think users would find really great and even expand their creativeness now that they have a lot more tools at their hands. That’s just what I want to see come the this app app.

I've been using Voloco for over a year, now overall its good, really easy to learn especially for people that just want too make music for the fun of it. That being said, still keep it simple but if you would be able to add layers that would make Voloco so much more song friendly because i feel like doing the vocals all in one take is very annoying and unreasonable, that one change would make a lot of other apps similar to this one be pointless, thats all Voloco really needs. Im going to continue to make songs off Voloco but Id appreciate it if you guys would take that idea into consideration for future updates. thank you

Ever since I came across the this app app, I’ve been creating all the time. I’ve went into a lot of professional studios and I’ve delt with a lot of supposedly “professional engineers.” Tens of Thousands of dollars later, I still didn’t have a solid piece of work I could stand by and feel comfortable distributing. this app has made all the difference. I’ve never sounded so good. I’ve never been so confident with the end result. I never thought I would see the day where I actually had a sure shot at giving the world something fresh, new, and innovative. this app has made all the difference. If you ever have a chance to try it out, do it. You won’t regret it. “Innovate or Die!”

This is a very good auto tune app I would really recommend it to someone who wants to make music but mabye wants to use auto tune but what’s even better is that Voloco has a large selection of beats to chose and more get added which is great and I’ve made many songs already not all good but the good ones are really good the auto tune isn’t janky like other ones I also recommend using headphones when making music and I also want to mention there is a part of Voloco you have to pay for but isn’t needed at all they are just other types of auto tune but the ones you get are enough to make something really good

I frequently used Voloco to make funny songs without the use of headphones, listening to the background music to know where I was in the song. However, recently there was an update regarding “audio bleed”, which was never a problem. You made it to where I can no longer hear the music while not using headphones. I would definitely suggest making an option for those who are fine with the audio bleed and prefer to use Voloco without wired headphones. As of now, Voloco is almost unusable by me because of this issue. Voloco is really great for recording music and making projects but this issue of not being able to hear sound while I record is becoming quite annoying. Thank you for reading.

Hi. It’s a 12 year old talking right now. And I just want to say, Voloco is incredible. So much in fact I use it about 10 times per day. It is very good to use and portable to tons and tons of different devices. Best of all, they have free to send, share, play, and use beats on their app. You also don’t have to worry about getting premium because it is totally free to use. You can get premium, but it isn’t everything in Voloco . So me personally, thinks that you personally, should get Voloco if rapping is the right for for you.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ out of 5 stars 💯%

Thanks, and have a good day with your new best app friend... this app.

i’m actually trying to take music and singing seriously on Voloco and Voloco just keeps making me doubt myself Voloco is absolutely
horrible unless you wanna be a rapper but other than that this is the worst app ever I don’t know what all these good reviews are about you guys are literally getting paid to write good reviews i’m telling the truth Voloco is absolutely horrible you can’t do anything there’s no autotune this is only good if you wanna be a rapper if you buy this I am so sorry you should get a full refund Voloco will only scam you it’s the worst app in the whole entire world if you want to be a rapper then Voloco is for you if you’re trying to take music seriously and sing seriously then yeah don’t get Voloco it’s a waste of your time it takes of your storage just delete this if you have it, it takes up so much storage and worst app in the world.

An example of 1 issue. I open Voloco & It allows me to listen to beats until I find one that “speaks” to me. Then I press the “select” button, which takes me to the recording page and Voloco FREEZES on the Recording Screen. It forces you to restart. I had to Restart Voloco again & again, still the same results. I’ve Uninstalled & Reinstalled Voloco many times, it continues to freeze when I try to Record using a this app beat or a beat/music I created or just any random beat in my music folder. The Recording Screen FREEZES (or Freezes Up).

I hope the New Update fixes this serious issue. I just received a 1 Year Subscription. I want to start using it ASAP. this app is my Favorite Recording App that has features that makes a decent Singer sound Good with the right settings, music and arrangement, of course. 🙂✌️

Voloco is great! however, there is one thing missing from Voloco that would make it perfect! you should add a feature where you could record line-by-line. for example, you could record one line, save it, and start a new recording for the next line on that same song! it’s basically like a bunch of mini-recordings coming together to make one full song! if not that, then maybe a feature that allows us to pause our recording and continue once we are ready. or just a feature that allows us to add more than one recording to the song so that we could do ad-libs as well. this would make Voloco the perfect place to make the perfect song!

Honestly if you’re looking for a review then here it is. Voloco in performance is perfect if I were to put out some suggestions I would say make a button to friend people an make collab an things will go much more smooth for some people in the making of music an maybe tone down the prices for the exclusive stuff? I mean it would make more off of it because more people are buying it so that’s something I wanted to put out there as well an this is coming from a 12 year old trying to make music with his buddy. But maybe if these things or tweaked or even solved then this has to be a 9 1/2 in rating or a 10/10

So I love Voloco. I’m having lots of fun exploring a talent that I have suppressed for a while now. But, I think Voloco would be even better if there was a way to save tracks that you like. It takes a bit of time to find tracks previously listened to especially if you don’t know the name. It would also be beneficial to literally be able to search a producer or the name of a track. And also a space to write lyrics. That way you could sing/rap and read while the track is playing.

I hadn’t written a song in over 15 years. I never sang seriously either... Voloco may change that! ☺️

I’ve used Voloco for quite some time , at least a year now for fun or random raps. If you only want the auto tuning then it’s great - but I’d like to see more innovation on the social features.

Why can’t I search beats or others music?
Why doesn’t Voloco allow me AT LEAST send my recording to be reviewed. I have to go out of my way to send an email. Let us comment, or like the songs / beats.

Maybe we could also get more audio manipulation control for things like reverb, compression and EQ.

Multiple voice takes per track to get harmonies effect, pitch shift on finished track, or a control similar to the others to just tweak a harmonies setting.

as a developer myself(Flutter), I understand you can’t flip a switch and fix those things so I am willing to wait but specifically the social aspect or lack there of is my MAIN concern, the others are just suggestions.

I know good reviews are important to you, and I truly love Voloco and recommend it all the time. I’ll update my review if some of those issues could get fixed!

Thanks for reading.

Voloco has a lot of potential to be more useful to music creators than it already is. I say this because it lack in features that other apps have that would take this to the top if it had. For example if this app had the beat your playing not get cut off after your vocals that would be very helpful and make it easier to use. Also if you would crop your vocals separately from the beat that would be great too. These small things have inconvenienced me on multiple occasions and even and caused me to stop using it for a while. The auto tune is certainly great but it would be way better if it had these quality of life changes.

I love this App I hope you will make it compatible with iOS 13 i’ve tried other Applications but this one is bye far The best One for me but what if there was a DJ section then people could make their own beats that was just a suggestion other than that I love it and I have no problems with it thank you very much jest a update i was thinking a karaoke setting I know that you have a setting that takes away the full track but why not a setting that only removes the vocals but not the music that is all for now.

Apps very inconsistent after about a couple days of using Voloco non stop the beats started going off beat and also my microphone gets very silent when trying to sing not only that but the auto tune has become inconsistent messing up my vocals when previously they where fine I find that I have to keep reinstalling Voloco to get it to work but now it’s come to a point where it goes off beat, my microphone is going silent and also my vocals are inconsistent as well kinda frustrating because I’ve been making pretty good music now I am not able to produce the same quality of music I was just yesterday. App needs bug fixes hopefully it will get back running the way it was then I’ll change my review.

4+ stars fell to 2+. Voloco used to be worth your time and even the features provided by the free version was all you needed for just about any quick project. However, they just couldn’t resist and recently did what all developers do....and they broke it. What’s astonishing is that it likely took a full team of individuals to evaluate the new changes and accumulatively decide to render those changes. Many of these alterations were driven by greed and intemperance, others just out of incompetence. It’s a shame you can’t (easily) run an older version of Voloco . I’ve deleted Voloco for now and I will check back in the future to see if the common sense of this development team has been reinstated.

So I’ve had Voloco for a long time... since the iPhone 6... but since the iPhone X doesn’t have a headphone jack to plug a headset in( talking through the mic on the headset to hear yourself through the headphones) it’s a bit weird. It picks up the talking through the bottom of the phone... if it were possible to add something in the settings to change which exact mircophone the input was coming from... it would be amazing. If this is already a possible feature, may I please be told how to fix this? It would be a great help!!!

I have been using Voloco for probably almost 3 weeks and I really like it I’m convinced that it’s probably worth my money so I’m gonna go ahead and get a good one and on top of that I would like to state that somehow they should try to re-up Voloco and allow you to play music that being recorded on a separate device like for example I would like to use my headphones and mic to record and also have my music playing on a speaker for my
helper to help me mix
Other than that hands-down I really like Voloco

This is a solid app. Easy to get up and running/ recording quickly which is great when you are in the zone and want to get down ideas.

And with some tweaking of the settings you can get some great sounding vocals. It’s really fun too.

One request: it would be amazing to be able to bring in pre recorded vocals and tune them. You could try out different effects and possibly even bounce down and layer them. It makes much more sense to do that kind of vocal processing post-recording. Although don’t get me wrong, being able to sing live with the auto tune styles IS the most fun part. I’d recommend it!

With the free option I got a chance to test to see it worked for my application. Using a piezo barrel pickup on clarinet I was able to get an awesome harmony effect. Need to see if there anything I can use in the paid solution. Tried VoxSyn and that was just ok if you want anolog synth effects but Voloco gives a nicer acoustic solution. Definitely not going to spend @$400 for hardware and only use a few settings. The iOS solution also has more options than the Mas vst at this point in time.

i was literally about to purchase the extra effects, all of them. to my surprise i find Voloco has been updated and now offers a subscription instead of a one time purchase. has it always been a subscription and i just didn’t know, or have the devs turned this wonderful app into a smule crap? please no. i was just about to spend money on this like i had been planning for quite some time, i can’t believe that on the day where i actually commit to my plans i find this app turned into one of the least successful business models for apps imo.

So Voloco is super amusing for singers. I really like the presets inspired by Indian Classical music. Getting lost in a dronescape is hypnotic. Also, as someone who has talked a lot of smack about auto tune over the years, it’s actually pretty fun to play with. I don’t use the key finding features for existing songs much, but they work. I appreciate the ability to use any effect in any of the available scales. Chromatic scale and vocoder is an amusing combination. I wish that user defined presets were a thing, but that’s my only extremely mild gripe.

I’ve been using this app for over a month now I’ll probably over two months probably over three months and I don’t use this app’s arm instrumentals I make my own instrumentals and then I use this app to record my song. I really need to convert back to the older the wet the wet the last update the last update that I did for my phone for the logo I needed to go back to where it was before that originally because I can’t use the new app.

Voloco itself is a good app. I haven’t had any problems with using it in any way. But the one thing that bothers me is that after I use Voloco and unplug my headphones from the phone, the bottom speaker doesn’t play any sound but the sound only plays on the top speaker. The only way to get the bottom speaker working is for me to turn off my phone and turn it back on again. I don’t want to do this every time I use Voloco. If this could get fixed in a future update that would be fantastic. Thank you.

Voloco is AWESOME‼️ I use it to make rough draft songs & ON THE GO‼️ I’m an artist who is always looking for mobile music production tools & this app is my little mobile studio secret. It’s DEF worth paying for the monthly subscription & unlocking ALL the tune settings‼️ I’m sooo glad I came across Voloco‼️ Only other thing I could ask for is multi-track recording but I slick figured out how to do that. Voloco will turn you into a one-take autotune BEAST‼️ Highly recommended‼️

So I got Voloco and at first I thought it was cool and all. But then, out if no where when I cane back to the recording audio thing a noise that I WAS NOT making started playing. It was just really loud white noise. Like rubbing the microphone against something. But I assure you, that WASNT me. Also, on settings, it asks for a location. You can press “never” but when you get out of that category thing it says your location is on. Kinda freaked me out a little. I’m not sure if it was just my phone, which it probably was, but I’m not 100% sure.

Ok so my complaint from the last update was that you can hear too much background air and it’s because the vocals volume are off and with new update it’s still the same plus when I try to upload a beat from my Dropbox in crashes and closes me out. Come on guys I know you can improve these things I made 4 successful albums with Voloco but I’ve been stuck not using it because of these negatives.

I enjoy Voloco, it is pretty easy to use and very user friendly! I typically use the natural auto tune so it sounds more clean and it provides a good finishing product. My only question is that I’m not sure if there’s a way to rewind the track a little bit to match the beat because whenever I use headphones on it it gets off beat so I have to quietly listen through my phone or hear it, just wondering. Thanks!
