VinylStudio for Android

I enjoyed this app, but with recent updates by Google to the OS, the app quit working. It tries to open, then gives a fatal error. I deleted and reinstalled it, but got the same error message. Please fix...

For years I've been using a combination of Audacity and ClickRepair on my Android to digitize my collection of vinyl. The process took hours. First playing the album into Audacity as two large WAV files. Running ClickRepair on the two files. Manually splitting the tracks using Audacity into a folder and assigning ttrack names. Then, burning them to a CD. From the CD, the album was imported into iTunes. VinylStudio does all of that almost automatically. It gives me a simple UI from which I can refine the fade-in and out of tracks. Click repair is built-in. And, best of all, it manages the import into my iTunes library without having to create ancient CDs! Well worth the $25 for the basic version. By the way, my Android is a late 2015 Intel Core i5 with 16GB DDR3 memory running Monterey. The app was flawless on this old tech. Now, my only request is for an iPadOS version to run on my superfast Mobile Pro with the M1 chip. I'd gladly pay another $25 for an iPadOS version. Great app! Thanks.

I’m an old DJ with a lot of records. As I sell off my collection I make high quality recordings of each one. I don’t know what I would do without VinylStudio Pro. I recently had to replace the logic board in my old Android late 2011 and when I opened Vinyl Studio it had reverted to the free version. I need all the extras the Pro version offers, such as importing more than one sound file at a time, and being able to get album cover tags, etc. So I contacted Paul Sanders and we finally solved the problem The app’s Help menu held the solution with the option “Retore Previous Purchases”. Simple solution, but, well, ignorant me. So I learned two things about Vinyl/Studio that are out “out of this world”, VinylStudio Pro and Paul Strand’s prompt, friendly customer service (rarely found nowadays).

I sent email to the author asking a very key question. They have split the functionality in two. Pushed PRO features to a higher pay model. I asked, are these features (minus the new addional features) something that I loose, that were in the older version, from upgrading. ....CRICKETS.... Since they have had over a week to respond, I must assume what they have done is found a way to create a new version that costs more money for us. Removed features from the lower end model we always had. Then added new features to both. Not honestly a fair scenerio. Legacy users, if my assumptions above is the case, should get a significant discount on an upghrade to the feature rich version, if it is the closest to what we already have.

Very bare and minimal functions! Audacity weas FREE and puts this App to shame. Waiting for Audacity to be upgraded for Catalina.
