Ratings and Reviews
Gonna be fantastic
Years ago I was on tour with a band mate who had a nord on his equipment rider, luckily the keyboard was always there in every city, but this app would be a handy alternative since it can load the nord files to take your actual sounds with you and control it with any MiDI keyboard.
The buttons are a little hard to press on the 11” iPad Pro (small on screen). It doesn’t have a full MIDI menu yet, but this developer is good with updates.
Output seemed a bit hot and I had to turn the master output down below 50% to match levels with my other gear and apps, not really a problem
Amazing synth, dodgy UI
No auv3 parameter mapping, so no parameter locks or macros other than modwheel. Multitouch doesn’t work. The UI code is extremely SLOW and runs terribly. 1 to 2 FPS on an IPad Air 4 with A14 Bionic. Support just punted me rather than properly investigating. Dropped a star for poor support response. I really hope they fix it because I LOVE the synth. Highly underrated for industrial, acid, EBM, etc. Better than Virus even. Hoping for fixes! Still having a great time.
Thanks for the fix!
Thanks to the developer for fixing the Sysex import. Works like a charm now!
I think the last thing this synth needs is for the parameters to be exposed so they can be easily modulated in AUM or another AU host (Like they are in OB-XD 3) I’m pretty sure that would make a lot of people happy if this were possible. Still, even without that have to give 5 stars as the developer has been listening and improving this instrument, very appreciated.
