One of the worst UIs ever. – SunVox Review

As another reviewer said; “Convoluted, capable, affordable.” I’ve owned this app possibly ever since it was released, yet I have never made a single song with it. The UI is from the mid-1980s and uses hexadecimal values. Seriously? From my experience there are two types of music creators (There maybe more that I just have not recognized); music constructors and intuitive music creators. SunVox is for the music constructors. SunVox’s UI forces me to focus on ‘mechanics’, navigation, etc. That’s a complete and total distraction for me and that is why I never have created any music using SunVox. Is one music creation process better than the other as far as the musical outcome? Absolutely not. It depends on your style. Myself I prefer Crystal Synth if I’m going this route. It too has a healthy learning curve but other than picking the appropriate screen, that’s all for the apps navigation and mechanics. I can focus on ‘inspiration’ and translate my emotions into sound without UI distractions. BUT I’ll keep updating it. Who knows, I might become an android and make SunVox my main app. ?
