  • A Beast - with support

    KeyStage is an amazing tool for keyboardists and even guitarists. As a gigging keys guy I finally have an easy way to set up and deliver a whole set with different presets and synths for all the songs we play. It has good support by the developer and fb group. Someone on there called it a beast… and as I get deeper into custom translators and controls I am realising it truly is.

  • snap to grid almost

    I love this app, but snap to grid on wave files that I need to loop isn’t
    lining up. It is an amazing app, but I need that to work. I tried remaking files and making sure bpm was good coming out of audio share. Thank you for the amazing work you’ve put into it.

    Developer Response

    Thanks for your review and feedback Keys Playr. Can you contact me at aligokturk80@gmail.com about this issue that you are having? I'm actively using snap to grid function in player units on metronome tracks and didn't have any issues with lining up. Maybe there is a detail that I missed.
  • Well Done

    I have been building my set lists with multiple bands inside KeyStage, transitioning from an old school setup consisting of three separate keyboards and switching patches between songs etc… What a game changer. I can do so much more now and I have only just scratched the surface - This is amazing. Thanks to Ali for all the hard work he puts into this!! <3

  • Great app

    After many many years of lugging outboard gear to gigs, I started researching alternatives that were easier on my back. After a lot of research, I jumped to KeyStage and am very happy. There is a learning curve, but all in all, this app is great for live gigs. I love the ability to pretty much set up my keyboard with any number of splits using Audio Units, so I can cover just about anything for the band I’m currently working with. The only drawback to this app is the time it takes to load a new song. This is not a huge issue if you are prepared to deal with it, but other than that, I absolutely love using this app for my live gigs.

  • The go to app for keyboardists

    Excellent for keyboard players to manage multiple keyboards, virtual instruments and song arrangements.
  • Perfect app

    Been using KeyStage for years now. Super reliable and endless options. I’m still finding new features! now with all the free effects and instruments units it’s the only app I have open on my iPad for an entire gig. Ali is super talented!
  • Enjoying this app

    Thank you Ali for creating an excellent host. It’s exactly what I need and goes far beyond. Have had minimal issues, a few crashes but not on a gig; not even sure that KS2 caused the issue. Still digging into the capabilities of this app. It’s impressive, I’m really happy so far…
  • Everything you could want to perform live!

    This app is everything you could want and need to perform keyboard/synth live from an iPad. I can load my various AU apps like Korg Module, Primer, Model D, etc, with patches and settings in the apps retained. I can control which synths use which part of the keyboard, ignore footpedal, play an octave higher or lower, and more. It has a mixer or it all, with the ability to insert FX, pan, adjust levels. Save song setups. Save section setups within songs. It’s way more powerful than I’ll ever need! You do have to pay all cart for some features but are very reasonably priced if you want/need them.

    This app has no competition. Please keep supporting it!

  • Does exactly what I want for musical theatre pit band

    I use KeyStage playing keyboards for pit bands. It’s perfect for organising complex patch lists with multiple layers and splits, and routing to and from hardware, software instruments and a sampler. I used it for several semi-professional shows and it has been rock solid.
  • Absolutely the best for live work

    Everything in this is spot on. I’ve noticed that song switching via MIDI channels isn’t working, but it’s a minor thing amongst all that exists in this. Brilliant piece of kit.
