Low Hiss Systems

About this app

Create sampled beats the original 90's way using eSPi.
The SP-1200 was the primary tool of many legendary hip-hop beatmakers and house music producers in the 90's.
It is well known for its gritty sound and simple but effective workflow.

Now with eSPi you get to experience this machine right at your fingertips, on your iPad.
Import samples or record them yourself, chop them up, pitch them and sequence them within the app.

Features include multiple filters, effects, a compressor, and most importantly the best emulation of the gritty signature sound produced by the SP-1200* when pitching samples up & down.

eSPi is also available on Mac, Linux & PC.

Ratings and reviews

Only one con that I have is the Bluetooth latency. I can playback my work just fine. When I try to create and manipulate through Bluetooth is lags a bit. It is not a problem that makes me angry. Maybe I am doing something wrong and you guys can help me. I enjoy this program. I will not say app because I see apps as games with ads. This monster is no game. I love that eSPi is for iOS and Android devices. I'm all over the place with my review. Get this program! You will never regret it. Peace.

Using an old Samsung A20, for this app. Crashes all the time. I don't have much on my phone and over 500gb on my SD. So I should have a good experience? I also tried to sample a sample I made on the app with one of my hardware samplers and volume is so low? It will crash if I try using the sequencer and why can't you go back to re-edit a sample to like turn off the loop or shorten or extend it. Maybe I'm doing something wrong? Idk.

The display box in the upper right corner only shows the top half of the words and numbers. The bottom half is cut off, making this app useless. This is on a relatively new, quality tablet. Major disappointment.
