Description
This is the app for guitar, bass, and strings players who need realistic woodwind instrument sounds for recording or live performance.
iFretless responds naturally to the the finger movements strings players use for vibrato and sliding between pitches. Using those techniques, the app gives a more believable, natural imitation of woodwind sounds than traditional keyboard based synth interfaces.
It also supports midi input from EWI MIDI controller devices and keyboard MIDI controllers.

Ratings and Reviews
Sounds great...
But the note “sliding” is the biggest downside of the app. Real saxophones aren’t trombones and one can not perform a legato on them. The app “Sensual Sax” treats these transitions more realistically, but each of these apps have their positives. Would just like to have more realistic note transitions available here. Thanks!
iFretless Apps open up a whole new world of Instruments + MIDI for Guitarists and Bassists!
Each iFretless app gives you the ability to play countless lead instruments (Horns, Brass, Guitar, Bass or ANY MIDI instrument) - All without having to learn keyboard!
The sounds built into these apps are top notch! The flexibility to setup the number of frets and strings and the note offset between strings is a game-changer!
Do you want to instantly apply your skills as a bassist or guitarist to ANY instrument? Would you like to perform a sax or trumpet solo from your virtual bass on the screen? Easy/peasy!
Do you just want to play along with some tunes while you on the move? Piece of cake!
Would you like to play a local or remote synthesizer from your familiar fretboard instrument? This is an essential app to help make that happen!
I’ve wait for an instrument app like this for YEARS!
For the lowest possible latency use wired headphones (but it works with Bluetooth headphones as well).
Just TRY it!
Getting better
After living with this app for a week,I must in all fairness revise my review. The alto is the better sounding instrument. First impression was with the tenor and that needs more work to smooth the envelope and possibly a filter to build a less boxy sound. It is a fun app a little pricey but overall I will stay tuned for updates . Sorry for being irritated out of the box but it will work
