A+

Truly a remarkable saxophone synthesizer. Amazing expression features, super playable, and a very authentic in its sound. Love the built in keyboard, so you don’t need any hardware to get the most out of it. Two huge thumbs up, and highly recommended. Would love for this company to make a Harp Instrument. The only negative I could mention is while they offer a variety of tunings, they don’t seem to offer a scale selection. I would love for them to add scales, and the option to filter the keyboard, so you can’t play a wrong note while jamming. That would make this app perfect.

Doing really good and…

I’ve been trying the different saxophone apps and the flute app for about a week. I’m impressed by the sound quality of the saxophones. The developers are doing great and the apps still need improvement. The reverb is limited and this is the only effect I can use, I want to be able to use more reverb and there needs to be more variety of effects. The keyboard also needs to be displayed on the screen like it should be 🎹 with large white keys and smaller black keys, not all the same size. I have a major issue…when I’m playing in the app a note gets stuck and won’t stop playing. This has happened three times already since I got the apps last week. This is a problem that needs to be fixed I want an app that is reliable for professional performance. Overall the app is ok and I think it has great potential. I will update my review if I notice changes/improvements based on my feedback. I use the apps in an iPad 2021 9th generation. Note is C#4 specifically.

Update broke app

Great job breaking your app. Since update the apps from this company do not produce sound

Amazing.

I use a MIDI breath controller called the DM48 digital harmonica. Nothing comes close to these sounds, even surpassing my VL70 turbo module- which has been the best modeled brass used by breath control folks for many years. (Ewi’s, etc) My live rig is now an ipad and a Roland Cube, versus a rather hefty rack of modules and a mixing board. Take the time to tweak the sounds, there are an infinite number of nuances you can implement, mutes, growls, overblows, and even the specific tone for just your default horn. It’s easy to save presets, I have some that are set up just for particular songs. For me, this is a big game changer, I’ve been waiting for the IOS versions to drop- so glad they’re here!!!
