Ratings and Reviews
Great Koto Simulator
They seem to have incorporated much of the feedback from earlier reviews and I found it extremely easy to use and fun too! I'm happy with it as is, but if you'd like to
make this app even more useful, here are a few suggestions:
First, allow the samples to be played in a continuous repeat mode. I'm trying to play along on shakuhachi and I don't want to stop every 30 seconds to press play.
Second, add more samples... many more samples. Perhaps some full classic shakuhachi/koto duets?
I haven't tried the record feature yet, but it would be nice to be able to save an unlimited number of recordings (limited only by available storage).
Thanks for a great app!
Wonderful!
I've always had this app from my first iPod Touch years ago and downloaded on my newest Apple device. Thank you so much for keeping it updated! As for the app: iKoto is a great introduction to the Koto's soothing, elegant, harp-like melody. I've been to a koto concert (Miyabi with Masayo Ishigure) and the music moves you emotionally. This app captures the beauty of this ancient instrument in the palm of your hand.
Updated after 3 years! App from 2008!
I loved this app and always had this "vintage" app on my iPhones since 2008. Thanks for keeping it working!
From 2008: Boy, I wanted to make this App! What a great job: simple; elegant; beautiful; great sound and no 'click' sounds. Great job, guys! Would love ability to port songs, btw ;)
