VERY hit and miss

This one is a miss. I have the full unlock across all apps and this app and one other constantly have an issue where the downloaded packs disappear. The only way to get them back is to log out, delete app, reinstall, and log back in. However this only works briefly. A few hours later it must be done again. Tried to contact the dev many times and never heard back. I would skip this app, the sound font app, and the keyboard app as they all have these issues. The rest are great, sadly half of their apps just don’t work. Kinda regret buying the full unlock now as the dev isn’t keen to respond or fix issues.

It works but…..

Can’t find any documentation so this could be user error. Very hard to activate on touch pads on iPhone 17 but ok on iPad mini. No midi learn on auv3 like the stand alone. Midi control in AUv3 doesn’t work. Basic purchase does not get you access to all sounds as you have to pay for more. No credit against upgrade. Very difficult to access store for some reason. Had to keep removing and reinstalling to get it to work. First app to act like this for me.

• Added iOS 27 support. • Improved pad controls: long-press menus now open reliably, and drag-and-drop reordering works correctly for all pads, including drones. • MIDI control of pads, banks, and songs now works from any screen, including when the plugin window is closed. • Projects saved in your host app now retain the plugin’s pad banks, loaded song, and levels. • Reducing a song’s rows now correctly removes unused pads. • Songs now retain their tempo when switching Tempo Lock on or off. • Fixed a crash when reopening the app on Set Lists. • Fixed an issue where store previews could interrupt audio. • Fixed a crash when closing the plugin in a host app. • Improved layouts on smaller screens and prevented tips from covering the introduction.
