Ratings and Reviews
This is what I was looking for!
I’ve been trying to find this “sound” on iOS for a few years.
There are a lot of 8-bit/chip/lo fi apps but I never felt the sound was quite right; they didn’t sound like it did back in the day when I was kid.
I have come to love OBx and in similar fashion this synth sounds just as genuine and authentic as the original synth it emulates.
This devs apps deliver true, authentic sounds with plenty of parameters to manipulate.
I don’t know much about the technical side of it, but if you want the best 80s synth tones, you found it.
Better preset visibility please!
Great work but would love a more visible preset bar. Sounds great, thank you!
EDIT: Preset bar has been updated and it’s perfect.
Developer Response ,
Thanks for the feedback. This has been addressed in 1.7 release.
Please include file name display
These sounds are really great, and the ammount of presets is over the top. But because there are so many presets, it would be great to be able to recall favorites. However when changing programs up and down (+, -) there is no display telling you what preset you’re playing, and therefor no easy way to recall it later. The current preset is also not highlighted in the preset menu when browsing. This would add invaluable functionality to a very cool-sounding synth.
Developer Response ,
Current preset highlight and preset name display is featured in 1.7 release.
