The concept is there, but the UI need some work. It said that in the instructions there’s a scroll bar on iPhone, but it doesn’t exist. You can’t really use it on an iPhone. I would gather it. It’s tight on an iPad mini too. On an iPad it’s a bit better and on a Mac it certainly the best. I’m not quite sure why both the keyboard and the synth images don’t default to larger in the first place.

This is my first ever review, so this should say something. Fairly new to the ios music making world, but been diving deep. Out of all the synths and music utility apps and daws and auv3, this one has the smallest font. I saw this talked about for a few days in different forum destinations and I heeded the warning but oh, god how right they all were.The synths sound great, I actually would like to play with them and use them and incorporate into my workflow as I can, but truly impossible with not being able to read anything I’m doing.I’ve screen all three keyboards, the two in the mod and the toy sampler so I do have an idea now about what all the buttons are but that doesn’t help when in the moment of crafting a sound and trying to find with patch is going to connect to which output.I truly want to like this app, and I do, like this app but I don’t think any of us can actually use this app until this feature gets figured out. Maybe with an actual zoom feature in app that let’s you scroll very far into the keys and does so smoothly. Or the devs can figure out a way to enlarge the font without sacrificing the intent they were going for in the vision of the app.This is all coming from someone who has great eyesight, and accessibility zoom feature on, screens shots taken while zoomed in. It shouldn’t be this hard to read the work flow, even at the fiver price point. Small knobs I can do, most apps are featured with that, but small font to the point of unreadable is kind of impossible though, impressive coming from someone with equally small handwriting ;)iphone - updated to most recent ios - 3.5 stars until this gets sorted.Other than that, it’s a great sounding synth with fun features and I would like to use them.

iPhone 8. When selecting the preset tab, app freezes. It’s now impossible to select the other instrument. I’d consider this app broken as is. Hopefully I can update my review to reflect a more positive experience. Side note: The 2600 sounds good. I can’t access the SK1. Also, a pinch zoom is preferable to the slider/joystick combo, but I can tolerate it just because I’m so excited to see a 2600 on iOS.Update: The developer addressed the issue in a matter of days. This app is definitely worth investing some time in now. It feels like a fun little sound design lab. I’m starting to get used to the zoom/joystick navigation. The whole experience is very methodical. I like it.

This came from out of hyperspace and dropped a synthetic alien (arp 2600) into portable use. Pretty big deal. Ok, so from the start Its hard to tell how authentic the sound quality is compared to the many hardware versions .I don’t think it has to sound exactly alike, but I hope the patch-points and functions are close enough. So, besides some small quirks/issues, they update and fix it often. I think can only Get better and better as they appear to listen to feedback as well!This is working well at this point, and midi was rolling through AUM great. This is a dream in my world, and I haven’t event touched the other keyboard. Cheers!
