So buggy
Codowlsky Polopumus

Still... just like the rest


Great Sounds with Caveats
Neumuzik

Keyboard performance is laggy and sometimes completely unresponsive in the app. I still recommend it despite the performance issues.


beautiful interface and sound texture
Nosidel Montesino

brilliant ?


Best synth now unusable
sclurbss

I used to be able to set the global pitch bend rating to 24. And for no reason, it disappeared. Developer won’t respond to this and my shockwave emails. It’s a shame because these were my go to synths for giging with my mope controller. It’s useless as an MPE synth now.


i just but this app
Nosidel Montesino

and there aint no presets, when i press to browse presets it only shows a empty window with no presets to choose, im on a iphone xs max ios 13.7 do got to buy presets to be able to make a different sound, if not do i got make my own presets to change the sound, well if thats the case i want my money back because i ain't no sound designer i just try it on nanostudio 2 and even from pressing a note key it hugs the cpu all the way to red, and thats just from one note on any presets, and yes i was able to browse the presets on nanostudio but that's about it because im not able to use it or play anything because it hugs the cpu making it sound really bad with a lot of cracking noise i dont have that problem with any other apps and thats including shockwave which i just but too, i was about to buy all your apps but now im not, because i dont want to waste my money on apps that doesn't going to work, and again a i got a iphone xs max ios 13.7 so the cpu should not be problem


Nice but...
Zod the magnificent

The auv3 U.I. doesn't have a slot for selecting presets. This basically makes auv3 more or less worthless in most daws since you wont have access to your patches. I hope the developer fixes this. Iv seen too many ios synths with this major over-site to be patient about throwing away money on a app ill never use . Would be 5 stars otherwise.


Awesome!!!
rackersr

Instant Favorite!! From heavy leads to shimmery highs and everything in between. An absolute, absolute must buy, especially with a Roli keyboard!!!


Very smart design❣️
Eriptron

Update: Increased my rating by 1 star to counter zodthemagnificent’s (lol) unfair rating. ——- Thank you. And, naturally, I hit the ‘+’ for incrementing the playing preset and lost my settings again. Anyway, the far right ‘+’. :-) The fonts could be larger in the preset display screens and the orange selection highlight bar makes reading what’s highlighted hard. —— Tried saving my preset and Volt crashed, losing everything. ?Not sure why three UI button views as FX is displayed with Main on my 12.9” iPad Pro. I can’t save any presets! Volt keeps crashing when I do. Having the digital readout for the controls under the control, your finger covers the value. Any latched key/s graphic disappears when you move the octave slider to another octave and back. You can’t tell what note/s are latched. Shelving Volt until the preset saving issue is fixed. —— I saw a pre-release video so it was just a matter of having patience waiting to get it. lol This is going to be fun. The thick, toothy rolling layered sound I can get out of Volt is pretty crazy❣️


Head spinning goodness.
Nitpick Pete

I needed another synth about as much as I need fifteen more holes in my head and dismissed this one for a while. Finally giving in to temptation...I got no sleep last night...this thing sounds so good, is so easy to use, and sounds so good...oh I already said that. See what sleep deprivation will do? I'm sure to find a knock or two eventually...just can't keep my eyes open at the momen


Great synth
Chipraise

I really like it. They have made many improvements lately, and it does have a slot for choosing presets now as a hosted AUv3 unit. Check it out!
