課金するとめちゃくちゃ強くなる。

サウンドパックなどのプリセットに課金することもできるのですがパラメーターが限られているので各パラメーターをエディット出来るようになるモジュールに課金するのがベターです。
そうすることでLFOやEG、FXなど一般的なソフトシンセのようなアビリティになるのでおすすめ。
iPadで使えばより使いやすくなるので、私はLaunchkey mini mk3と併せてステージで使っています。
Ableton Liveとの親和性も高く、この機能でこの価格なら安いと思います。

但し、同一アカウントの複数デバイス間でのプロジェクトのやり取りが出来ず、私用で使っているiPhoneで作ったプロジェクトをショーで使っているiPadへコピー出来ないのが残念。
現状、全く同じ音色とMIDIデータを手打ちでコピーしています(とてもめんどい)
そこがもっと気軽にエクスポートできるようになればKorg gadgetなどにも引けをとらないアプリになるのではないかなと思いました。
(どちらも方向性も出音も違うので単純な比較は出来ませんが)

それと、ドラムモジュールについてはモジュールに課金してもエディット出来る項目等が少なく買うメリットをそこまで感じませんでした。
これならサウンドパックを買うかなという感じ。
セルフサンプルの読み込みが出来たら最高なんですが多分これはサウンドパックを売るという商売なのでそこは文句を言わず気に入ったものを買うようにしています。お布施の意味も込めて。

あとはピアノやエレピなどのPCMシンセのようなモジュールが追加されればもっとお金払うのになぁって思ってます!よろしくお願いします!
