Good but needs 1 crucial change

I really absolutely love this tracker but the 1 thing that really annoys me is that there is only 1 octave that doesn’t make a full scale.

Having the keyboard be able to change up to at least 3 or 4 octaves would be an absolute game changer in my opinion.

It honestly annoys me how limited the keyboard is in software.

Relaunch app for portrait.

Great tracker but I bought this because it looked like it worked in portrait. I hate working on things with my phone sideways. I’ve toggle the orientation lock and it doesn’t go portrait mode. Very disappointing.

Edit: the tutorial locks you into landscape. If you fully close the app and re-enter with your phone on portrait it should work.

Solution or Future Update?

I would like to see a solution or future update on adding DPCM to the NES sound chip. 7-bit PCM is okay, but it eats up a bunch of the NES’s memory, and if you want to use samples in your song to put into a game, you basically have no other choice. A solution would be greatly appreciated.

I love Deflemask! I make covers of all different games.

Wouldn't it be funny if Leonardo made a deflemask app for  watch

My personal opinion on DefleMask

I would prefer her if there was you know or like could you please tell me how to know get to go and come on son effect in DefleMask mobile I don’t know how I’m stumped but I am and also could you add super Nintendo game boy advanced and 32 X if that’s good with you OK bye

Very useful and user-friendly

Deflemask was the first tracker software I had used, but in a few days I pretty easily got the hang of it. It has a decent array of systems to choose from, although I would enjoy a SNES tracker. It has a colour presets for the interface which can help with readability. Overall one of my best uses of money on a single app.

Needs properly optimising for iPadOS

Just a few things prevent this from working as well as other iPadOS apps…

1. When using an external keyboard (e.g. Apple Magic Keyboard for iPad), some of the documented shortcuts only work intermittently (like Tab for “note off”) or not at all (ctrl + d for Delete).

2. It doesn’t support iCloud/Files, so you have to manually move apps between “On my iPad” and “iCloud” to continue working with the desktop version.

3. It doesn’t respect the iPadOS “swipe up” gesture properly… when. you do this, the keyboard notes activate and overwrite part of your song (if you’re still in record mode).

4. It can be buggy and unstable at times… for example, the ability to name a pattern suddenly stops working (doesn’t accept any keyboard input).

Otherwise, it’s all good, and extremely convenient for writing chip tunes on the go!

Fantastic

If you want to get into tracker sequencing and utilize a few more brain cells than a lot of mobile DAW platforms require, DefleMask is a great place to start. This app over-delivers in (fun)ctionality because it makes up for any features (usually unnecessary bells & whistles) it may lack, in what I guess you could call reative efficiency. Everything you need is there so long as you’re willing to think critically and improvise when necessary. There is nothing to stop you from rolling up your sleeves and busting out a chiptune single or EP for SoundCloud or BandCamp or iTunes made exclusively with DefleMask. Have fun.

Great Update!

Please give option to make the oscilloscope full screen so I can upload to YouTube.
This Chiptune software is awesome!
