Years ago I was on tour with a band mate who had a nord on his equipment rider, luckily the keyboard was always there in every city, but this app would be a handy alternative since it can load the nord files to take your actual sounds with you and control it with any MiDI keyboard.The buttons are a little hard to press on the 11” iPad Pro (small on screen). It doesn’t have a full MIDI menu yet, but this developer is good with updates.Output seemed a bit hot and I had to turn the master output down below 50% to match levels with my other gear and apps, not really a problem

Any update on multitouch???this synth has a possible one up on the majority with the import of actual nord syx file usability which is AMAZING but could really use some tlc as to the user interface and keyboard touch controllers etc ... please update and add support for more nord keyboard syx file imports, as this feature could make this synth second in line to best....so far amazing still though!

Thanks to the developer for fixing the Sysex import. Works like a charm now! I think the last thing this synth needs is for the parameters to be exposed so they can be easily modulated in AUM or another AU host (Like they are in OB-XD 3) I’m pretty sure that would make a lot of people happy if this were possible. Still, even without that have to give 5 stars as the developer has been listening and improving this instrument, very appreciated.

Thank you for your kind words and support! We’re glad the Sysex import is working well for you. AUv3 parameter support is actively being worked on, and we’re excited to bring this functionality to enhance your experience.

Added AUv3 plugin parameter display and improved memory management. Faster audio and more accurate filter processing with advanced DSP optimizations. Improved MIDI event processing with reduced latency for real-time performance. New Load Bank function in the File menu for streamlined preset management. Enhanced user interface with larger LED tap areas and expanded clickable regions. Improved MIDI keyboard rendering with smoother visual feedback. Fixed issue where first bank failed to load on initial app launch.
