Incredible
The Scaler team has really delivered an amazing product. I dont usually leave comments but this app is so on point that I had to say something. One of my favorite apps on IOS.
Great app with a few limitations
Very complex app that can accomplish a lot, but leaves a few things to be desired. Can’t seem to export files as .mid? Some stability issues as an AU3, keep losing sound and have to reload the plug-in, or having keys remaining triggered when stopping audio.
