Interface is too basic

It’s an interesting idea but it does not give you enough control to do anything truly interesting.

Response from developer

Hi just.this.guy, Thanks for the review. What other features would you like to see? You mentioned you’d like more control. Control over what? I welcome your suggestions! Drop me a line: daniel@kuntz.io

Sound

I get no sound

amibence

Cool for sampling and using for ambient music

Good idea needs AU support

Shame wish this could work with midi apps instead of generating midi which can then be transported across to other apps

A fantastic musical instrument

Cycle is a great app for creating drone music. The time lag accumulation feature adds variation that you don’t generally get in drone music apps.

I encountered a Puzzle

I’m on iPhone SE trying to play through the device’s speakers. I already ran volume tests to make sure the speakers were on and working, but when I tried to use the app, nothing.

I’d like to report that upon a hard - Reload of the game it seems to be working better, and is playing through the speakers properly. I find the sounds it makes quite unconventional and interesting. The interface looks great and is pretty simple.

An interesting idea

Not being musically inclined, I have however appreciated this apps ability to allow my mind to stop intruding and thereby getting me back to sleep.

I look forward to future development.

It’s got potential

Playing around a bit with this app, I can see that I could get something out of it. A bona-fide keyboard layout makes it more musical than other apps I have used—and the recording feature is a nice touch. Unfortunately, the WAV files it generates have zero data, so you’ll have to use an external recorder if you want to save anything.

Response from developer

Hi Lennbob, Thanks for the review! The wav exporting should work properly. Would you mind sending me an email with your device model and iOS version? Would be happy to get this sorted out for you. My email: daniel@kuntz.io

Minimal Beauty

Love it....n so gorgeous an app!! Thank you!!

Lots of fun

Didn’t know what to expect but this is really a lot of fun. I’ve never heard harmonies like the ones I’m making with this. Couple of things that could make this app even better: 1. Octave up and down 2. Limit keys to one key or scale: major, minor, etc.

Also I’d pay good money for more instrument sounds and to have 4 tracks at a time going with loop recording, etc.
