This is my favorite synth I have used on ipad platforms. The UI is so easy to navigate and just great for understanding synthesis. The sound is amazing, really full and tons of different textures you can get from simple tweaking. The developer is very responsive and is constantly working on and updating the synth. Great product and experience!

Thank you very much for the feedback!
My new favorite synth
Obis11
I have been enjoying this synthesizer so much. I love the fact that it has so many LFO’s and I can assign them to basically anything. It’s working great in AUM and pretty much every other app that I’ve been testing it on. The app has a great look and is genuinely fun to interact with.

Hi Obis11! I appreciate your feedback! Please contact support@tatreal.pro or oktobugs@tatreal.pro - the pop-up screen shows this email right on the first start of the app. These issues you've pointed out will be fixed in 1.0.1, which is already under review by the Apple team. Hope it'll be approved soon, as it takes up to 5 days to get approval. AUv3 will be supplied within the next update. Thank you for your purchase!!! Can you please contact us and tell within email what type of MIDI controller you use? You may need to activate MIDI in the iOS settings menu for wired MIDI: Settings->Privacy & Security->Security->Wired Accessories->Always AllowIf this has been done and the app still can't receive any MIDI, then please share your MIDI controller make/model/version in an email - this is very important information for us to get fixed the issue right away
Great Value

Particle Chimes is another music instrument. You added note hold, kind of. You need to be able to toggle on/off individual held notes, not all held notes by turning the feature off.The settings screen the bottom cho settings are cut off in portrait and margins on n landscape.There’s too many things wrong to list.Again, there’s a lot of ‘stuff’ but there is no actual personality in the instrument. There’s nothing exciting when you play it.(But thanks for your attempt to add note hold though.)
