"Digital D1 synth is pure ‘80s and ‘90s digital lushness" - Computer Music/Music Radar
"Beautiful. Lush. Modern and Amazing… An Instant Classic."
REQUIREMENTS:
Requires newer iPads for best performance. May be slow on iPad 4.
IAA is being deprecated by Apple in iOS 13. We're moving to AUv3 as well. Please replace IAA with AUv3 in your projects.
GarageBand Audio Unit (AUv3):
You can run one instance of D1 as an AUv3 in GarageBand. With a host like AUM, you can run 3 or more instances at once.
TROUBLESHOOTING:
For iPad 4 - Open the "Settings" button (to the upper left above the keyboard). Turn the buffer to 512 or above. And turn the "CPU Efficient" toggle to on. If still having trouble, try closing other music apps and/or rebooting your iPad. Thanks!

** This app does not sample any PCM-based synths, including Roland or Korg digital keyboards. Additionally, this app does not have any business relationship with Roland, Korg, or any other 80s/90s Digital Synth manufacturers.

Your mad if you don’t !
I’m a big analog synth user and to be perfectly honest I write a lot of music and arrangements on iPad then cross them over as I feel the sound hasn’t been there. Since synth one came I’ve been watching what these guys are doing and I’ve love using it. BUT THIS... it’s good, it’s really good, use it anywhere it will hold its own and there are very few soft synths I will say that about. Like I stated I’m a analog guy and this is as good as there has been to date on iOS as far as I’m concerned. You would be mad to not support this, it’s a must have and if you don’t believe me try synth one..... but be aware D1 is better in pretty much all ways, you will notice the difference. This is a quality product!
Fixed! Well done AudioKit Pro!!!
Thank you so very much AudioKit Pro for the latest Update, which has now completely remedied the problem with the presets, and the App is now FULLY usable! No other worries so far as I can see! What a terrific Synth this is, and you fixed it in less than 24 hours. WOW, that is impressive work! If I was able to award you all a medal - I would! Many, many thanks for this incredible effort. BTW - I didn't even have to adjust the buffer as you suggested - it wasn't necessary! All the best, from an extremely happy customer with a WONDERFUL Synth, Roger.
its good, not great but good.
This is a good synthesizer marked mostly by high quality presets. beyond that it is a good synthesizer that will see very minimal usage from me without auv3. (which the devs say is coming very soon)*UPDATE. AUv3 is on its way anytime now. Since I have started using this synth more and more making my own presets, the sound design engine is so user friendly and fun to use. Certainly with Audio Unit capabilities this is one of the top 10 synths for me now. AudioKit deserve heavy praise for this achievement and the iOS community is grateful.
Developer Response ,
Thank you! :) You are awesome for supporting AudioKit. We love AUv3 as well. We're working hard to add AUv3 to both Digital D1 & Synth One. Plus, we're adding more and more features to D1. (The next update will have Filter key-tracking control, Velocity to layer Filter Strength, and more). Have a wonderful week!
