And no controls for background audio.


hypnotic loops

rcon303

i like the demo titled float, very ambient and hypnotic. would be really cool to have audiobus support to use some reverb and delay with this!! nice sounds,is it possible to edit(even minimally) the sounds (asdr,filter) in the full version? overall i like the look and feel and results from this synth sequencer!!


Great little generative app

RedSkyy73

Nice, intuitive and immediately understandable interface. The in built sounds are not bad. Some control of the vol levels between sounds would be great and midi out would make this a great compositional tool


Very Nice, But, Very Limited.

Joshua D.

I really like the sounds that this music tool produces and also really appreciate the innovative way that you set up songs in the app. I actually find this to be one of those novelty/gimmick applications that I don't grow tired in the first ten minutes of use. Those above reasons are why I felt that this app deserved the four stars that I gave it. Yet, I was very close to giving the app only three stars for a very large reason - its limitedness. Why any music production app developer builds an app today and purposefully leaves out AudioBus compatibility, well, I just cannot fathom this extremely poor decision on the part of the developer. The listed way to actually record and save a song in this app, has apparently something to do with utilizing some function in OS X Yosemite, I guess? That just makes absolutely no sense in my opinion, to relegate the only recording/saving/export option to doing it outside of the application on your Mac computer (assuming you have Yosemite installed, I don't). Why would you not just include the ever useful, premiere recording tool on iOS, AudioBus in this app? You can apparently save your compositions by making a $1 in-app purchase. But, honestly, what would be the point in doing that with your songs being forever stuck inside the application unless you have some bizarre Yosemite Mac thing? I personally believe that this app succeeds at giving you a very fun and innovative way to create midi-esque tunes. But, I also believe that it ultimately fails as an application for offering no reasonable way for the user to record and export their work done in the application (i.e. AudioBus.). You may feel differently about this app than me, but I just see it as nothing more than a fun toy right now with no way for the user to truly create and save their work. Quite a disappointing app in my opinion. I quite enjoyed the time I spent creating songs in this application but I just see no point in putting time into creating music if it is for all intents and purposes, stuck in the application forever. If the developer would add AudioBus to the app I think it would instantly become a five star worthy music tool. iPad Air 2/ iOS 8.1.1

This app has potential


Useless

You can't record The music you create as an audio file.


Needs volume Control

Rguy342

I love this app! Only thing that needs is volume control for the individual elements to make sure one doesn't stand out too much. Also, a wider range of instruments and tones would be nice!


Cute App, Needs some new features to make it a killer app

TheRingess

I'm enjoying playing with this app; I would recommend it to friends. Though I have a list of features I would like to see in future versions. 1. I want to be able to change the frequency of the emitters; especially relative to each other. I can then create complex rhythms. This would necessitate a "stop/restart" feature so that I can ensure that everything syncs up. 2. I definitely want to be able to assign instruments to different channels so that I can create stereo effects. 3. I want to change the volume of an instrument. 4. I want a "record" feature that allows me to save to an mp3. 5. Want to be able to share my creations with others. As I mentioned it's a cute fun app. I have a distinct feeling it could be a killer app. Thanks.


Definitely good idea

FluffyPlayer/Kanto

This is a very good idea! However I do have a few suggestions: -Music File exporting (because some people don't know what you mean by Yosemite, all I can think of is the park...) -Advanced Controls for towers (make it so you can edit the towers to your liking and cut back on making so many towers. Controls include tone, volume, reverberation, etc) -Playback control (control play, pause, and stop of the music. Can help it fine tune the music being created) A few have already been suggested but another person agreeing and adding to the demand may give you help on what you should be focusing on/do next.
