Love and hate

lovetongueattack

updated 3/28/17: I still love tnr-i, and I still get frustrated with tnr-i. this app could be so close to studio-grade if it offered one minor thing: ableton link. I have purchased (and later sold) a hardware tenori because i wanted the sync and midi functionality this app struggles with--only to find that the hardware is equally frustrating. "Sync" on the hardware tenori means 'almost-a-sixteenth-note-behind-the-beat'. What could solve this problem forever? Ableton link. Come on, Yamaha. Save this app from the deleted app piles of yesteryear's abandonware. Ableton link now, Ableton link forever. Love, -Your biggest fan ---- Love: -This app is inspiring. Getting off of a piano style keyboard has helped my song writing immensely at times. -Negative swing algorithm! Such a good shuffle. Almost as human as an African drum circle. -Limitation is the mother of all invention Hate: -The poor excuse for a file structure. This is an app that gives you a handful of options for saving small elements of songs (save block, save all settings), but no commands resembling "create new song" (initialize?) or "save [updated version of previously saved] song". I just lost two hours of work! Maybe I'm missing something, but I've been making music on computers for 15 years. Things shouldn't be this opaque. I understand the philosophy of the original Tenori-On and the desire to carry that over onto the iOS version, but why make things so difficult for us? Overall it's like using a charming piece of vintage equipment made overseas and guided by some sort of foreign design approach. Ergo the inspiration and the frustration go hand in hand. But hey: maybe this acts to keep hordes of sound-alikes from releasing songs written on this fun piece of kit ;)

Long live tenori-on!
