No hold function
This is an otherwise lovely app that is missing a key function: a hold, or “organ” mode for chords. Implementing that would make the difference between this being a gimmick and an actually useable instrument. Right now it’s the former, unfortunately.Excellent
Drums sound like your playing your great-grandmother’s 1980’s home organ (my experience being a Lowrey M-375 Parade organ). Separate reverb mix knobs for chord section and drums gives that Beach House feel. The underlying tones are pretty similar to the basic saw/square wave tones of Reverb Machine’s RM-20 (or better yet, the original Yamaha PS-20 (or PS-30)). Plenty of tone-shaping capabilities to change the chord section and the solo sections. And YES you can smoothly go between a major chord and a minor chord (and a metric crap-ton of other chords) ...it’s all in how you “press” and choose to “release” your fingers from the chording buttons. I really like that the solo key-buttons change notes to the chords that are being played (allows you to hit more correct notes more often than not). But if you want wrong notes just record the chords and then record your solo part on another track in the DAW or whatever you use.Show lessSimple but good
I’m a songwriter and musician, and yes I get what another reviewer means by circle of fifths, but if your looking for a simple and cheap sounding Omnichord app, then this is it. Have wanted to use one as Matt Johnson of The The has for years without the high cost of actually buying a real one, and this has enabled me to incorporate the sound into my recordings. There is my only gripe though, it would be so useful if it was inter app enabled so you could use it within such as GarageBand. I’m having to go an old fashioned way around this and either mike up or direct into a daw.Show less
