I first saw it on a friend's laptop and tried it out; feels slick and creative, easy to tinker with. Cute interface, but once it glitched, sped up, and I lost a few tracks — bummer.
Eyebrow-raising first try
Saw it on a buddy's setup and rolled my eyes — felt clunky and laggy at first, low-fi sounds. After fiddling, it's actually usable, weirdly decent.
Trial panic turned relief
I was skeptical — low on cash and moving, free trial sounded sketchy. Cancelled later, customer support very quickly sorted the surprise charge, so I'm relieved and oddly grateful.
Quiet snag
Saw it on a coworker's screen and a friend nudged me to try it. I hesitated — sign-in, a paywall for things that looked free — but I poked around anyway. Interface is clean, snappy, feels solid in use, so yeah, not bad, not great.
Almost lost the take
Mid-recording I freaked — two-hour take vanished and autosave looked empty. I’d first seen Soundtrap on a friend's demo and actually told another buddy to try it. Was skeptical, but customer support pulled a backup within minutes and I got my track back. Kind of relieved, oddly happy.
Unexpectedly helpful support
I stumbled across this on a Reddit thread and decided to try it, pretty skeptical. Scotti from support actually sorted my problem and issued a refund within 48 hours, which surprised me. I told a friend, though the instructions could be clearer.
Pitch Puzzle
Right in the middle of a late-night session I paused — I almost didn't buy premium because the app looked different. I worried the pitch steps and effects were gone, but overall it still works; my doubts eased, mostly. I still miss the full pitch list though.
Left Hanging and Charged
So weird—after I downgraded before the trial ended they still tried to charge me daily. I emailed support, crickets. Eventually they pulled money; customer service never answered. The app itself worked okay when it did, but the billing and support were a mess. I filed a chargeback and probably won’t go back.
Almost charged for a trial
So I signed up on a lazy Sunday for the free trial. At first the app felt nice, easy to browse, but when I tried to cancel the loading wheel would hang — on my phone, laptop, even my tablet — every browser. No reply to messages at first and they kept trying to charge my card, which made me skeptical. They eventually got back and helped cancel. Relieved it's over.
Great learning tool, playback stumbles
I like it — great value and perfect for getting started. I use it every day for quick practice takes and to edit clips between gigs, but playback on medium/high chokes and stutters. Tested on faster PCs, same issue. For now I export to listen properly, which is annoying but works.
Not reliable for real projects
sounds promising, but not dependable. My suggestion: work locally and export backups often, or use different software.
Rainy-night band experiment
the 24/7 support actually helped when someone (ahem, not naming names) wiped my account; they got it back and were super patient over email. Still fiddling with advanced stuff, but overall pleasantly surprised and glad we tried it.
Quietly impressed, with one annoying hiccup
when I exported a finished project it came out incomplete after I had already deleted old local files. Turned into a wasted afternoon rebuilding parts I thought were safely exported. That shouldn't happen — an export should be a self-contained file, not depend on whatever I still have on my laptop. So yeah, happy overall and relieved it wasn't a scam, but please fix the export behavior. Thanks.
Halfway through submission panic
Halfway through the final upload I noticed the waveform had been squashed into a weird three‑second blip in one channel — like someone microwaved my whole mix. I use this service every day for school assignments and late-night home mixes, so this messed up my routine and my grading. My teacher emailed support and they initially said nothing was wrong. The 'recover old project versions' button actually deleted more audio, forcing me to start from scratch. Customer service was slow and kind of tone-deaf, but then, unexpectedly, one rep found an old exported file and sent it over — which actually saved me hours. Delivery of that file was quick; experience left me wary though.
Sketch-Friendly but Final Falls Flat
great for sketching ideas, but don’t expect the published file to sound like what you hear in your DAW. I actually like the bundled sound packs and the intuitive layout — I throw together beats after putting the kids to bed and it’s quick, no fuss. The problem is the export: everything comes out overly compressed, kind of muffled and sometimes a bit fuzzy or distorted, so I find myself doubling layers and overworking tracks just to get something listenable. Even then it rarely reaches a professional quality, which is frustrating because the creative spark dies when the final sounds worse than the draft, and that kinda bums me out. So yeah, useful for practice and rough drafts, but not reliable when you want a clean, publish-ready result.
Weekend project free trial
I was really let down by the service I got from this company. I decided to try out the free trial for a little project I had going on over the weekend, but I was surprised when they still charged my account after I canceled the trial. Dealing with their customer service team was a headache - they weren't helpful at all and didn't solve the problem quickly. The whole experience was pretty negative, and I won't be using their services again.
Overcharged subscription
This company totally tried to trick me by sneaking in a subscription fee under a weird name. They called it something totally random, so I had no clue I was getting charged. It's shady and just not right. I ended up shelling out way more cash than I should have for a service I barely touched. It's annoying and feels like a total rip-off.
Film track creation
This website is great for when you just need a quick sound bite or basic track. It might not be the best for real serious musicians, but it's perfect for getting a feel for music software. I definitely suggest using it for background tracks in movies, especially if you're short on time.
Unexpected subscription
I am really upset at the moment! I discovered that I had this subscription that I never signed up for! And it was super difficult to cancel, like trying to find your way out of a never-ending maze. It's not right that they took my money without me even knowing!
Subscription cancelation issue
This company is a pain to deal with. I tried to cancel my subscription but for some reason, the cancel button wouldn't work. I contacted customer support and was surprised when they wanted my complete credit card details. That's not right, and it's against the law! I even have recordings of my conversation with their support team asking for this personal info. It's really irritating and feels sketchy that their system makes it so hard to cancel a subscription.

Overcharged after cancellation
This program is a total scam, I swear. Even after I unsubscribed, they went ahead and charged me a whopping $200 when it was supposed to be just $30 a month. Can you believe the... Read onBy: rosetta
