Sequencer – Mobile Music Sequencer - US Review
Nice easy to use app for sketching music ideas,
but in my opinion lacks these important features:
1. lots of poor sounds(instruments) compared to a few other music apps.
Almost no ethnic sounds, poor brass, woodwind reed piano selection etc.
2. repeated/recycled phrases! It was a good start to import phrases
from ancient QY series (and sell them as a pack), but most of phrases
are sort of flat with slight variation.
QY pack is nice for the price, but these are over decade and a half
old. Since this is mostly a phrase building/mixing app, why such slim
selection? There are probably great thousands of phrases that Yamaha
owns, if you do not want to give them away, why not sell these as
packs? If you went through all the troubles creating the software,
this is the least you can do.
3.True arranger functions such as start/fills/verse/end/ etc. Should
be super easy to implement given all the features that program has
already.
4. importation of Yamaha Style Files. I have many arranged from my
older Yamaha keyboards. This would be selling point for many.
Conclusion:
Have packs "in App" purchases with phrases such as Jazz, Afro Cuban, Reggae etc.
Sell sound packs with woodwinds, brass, pianos etc.
Ok for the sale price, but I paid premium, should have waited.
