My life is changed

I'm already a big fan of Jordan Rudess' work and the fact that he is always teaching and sharing his secrets just inspires me to do the same and makes me a better musician. Amazing instrument-- it will complement my Kronos 2 coming in the mail in august :D -B. Hasson
Not Mugician
Swe1001
Yes, it has a similar interface, and a more "advanced" synth engine, but... My fingers are accustomed to the spacing in Mugician. Yes adjustable here, but I'd love to be able to get the exact spacing as before instead of having to adjust it all the time. Next, the interface colors are nothing like Mugician. I have found that my eyes are tuned to the color and grid layout of Mugician. When I play this thing, my brain keeps telling my fingers that I'm going to miss the note, and I play fast at times (on the original, was not a real problem), so the difficulty gets exacerbated. Unfortunately, it is like learning all over again. Very disconcerting. And probably nearest and dearest to my heart was the synth engine of Mugician. I can't seem to create the same sounds on here, and it is very disappointing. Imagine playing a guitar, getting to know the instrument well, the sounds it makes, and then one day you strum it and all you hear is a canned violin sound. Or some weird noise. The emotional connection to the instrument has been trashed, all in the name of "progress." So, while I still have Mugician on my iPads, iOS 9 has introduced a nasty bug that sometimes makes the audio drop out. I went to the App Store to see if there was an update, but to my surprise, it was removed. I got a replacement app that was named something else, but installs as Mugician. All it does is crash. So I got this with high hopes, since one of the authors is the author of Mugician. Sad day. :( I guess like everything else, as time goes on, I'll just have to get used to change, even if it's just for the sake of change.
My favorite touch-based controller

The built-in synth is cool, but I tend to use this app as a controller for other synth apps and for external MIDI devices. My only suggestion for improvement would be for the max columns to be 1 more (like GeoShred) and to output MIDI note velocity based on touch pressure, if that's even possible to do well.
Favorite app of any type

This app is awesome. Jordan Rudess and Kevin Fortier are geniuses. I start every morning with an improvisation along with whatever happens to be playing in my car, and it starts my day like black coffee. And I only have the phone version, I can't wait to try it on an iPad:) If you're a musician, GET THIS APP. Or even if your not:)
Hooray for 6s!

Hooray, Geo Synthesizer is back in the game for the iPhone 6s! The stuttering (due to the 6s higher native 48k sampling rate) is now gone. Kudos to the developer, who was very responsive to the issue. Great support on their part.
Clicking issue on iPhone6.

Software will run on iPhone 6+, but it makes a clicking sound when you play any of the notes. It's annoying, but can be corrected when you wear headphones, as the clicking stops. Neat little toy.
Simply the Best ? app for live performance! Please fix the iPhone 6+ clicking sound
@netocrat
Amazing app / controller that works as a separate instrument not only on iPad, but on iPhone as well! The controller every keyboardist dreams of. Must-have iOS musician app. ? Please fix the iPhone 6+ clicking sound.
Fantastic Midi Controller

Adopt this midi controller app if you want your melodies, licks, and chords to become alive. The note arrangement allows for greater expression than a standard keyboard layout would. Wish list: 3D Touch for velocity and after touch
