Best App 2021

Love all the features. Hope to see a VST version of this app. I will definitely pay top dollars for it.

Quality app. Must buy!

This app in an absolute steal for the price. The depth for production this provides is immense. The developer has been beyond responsive to the iOS music community.

Great dev great app

This app is extremely well made and the ability to tie notes across loop points is game changing for me. Pattern mode makes it super fast to try out multiple takes / ideas. Overall very exciting.

This is the way...

I had given this developer some guff as I had thought he abandon this appโ€™s predecessor, which he had...

And I am glad he did! This just gets it done. Fast, smooth, and easy. Plus, it has plenty of fun little tools to get freaky! I use AUM regularly, and this adds all the sequencing one could need in what is a surprisingly complementary package.

I am sold...

Now on to finding my personal favorite method to record audio from AUM, because there is no need to worry about sequencing EVER gain!

Small in name, big in nature

This is a fantastic update to an already great app. Combine it with AUM and you end up with a pair of tools that are great for any kind of music making. I have tried GarageBand and Cubase for DAWs, and Iโ€™m not impressed with either - Atom + AUM is the way forward!

Canโ€™t record to playlist on beatmaker3

I am unable to record to the playlist/track un beatmaker3 pls fix
Add a record to track button plsssss

The Bollocks of the Dog

I was going to suggest the knees of the bees, but this thing is far more urgent and important. A brilliant app thatโ€™s easy to use and is the best of its kind. If you make music on iOS you need this more than you know....

MIDI piano roll levelled up!

What a slick, musical, ambitious app. It covers the piano roll basics with a really easy UI. Then jumps into deep settings for things like swing and quantize. See MIDI note layers on top of layers. It is also a clip launcher in AUM, integrates with hardware like the Launchpad (colours too), and then has fully scriptable elements for the more adventurous. Amazing work!

Changing appearance

I canโ€™t see how to change the appearance to the dark mode. My appearance is all white and I find the white harder to see. Any advice would be appreciated as I am pretty new to iOS music making

Response from developer

EDIT: The most recent update includes an in-app toggle for switching between light and dark mode. Find it in the top-right "hamburger" menu. By default, Atom 2 respects the iOS dark/light mode switch. You can go to Control Center on iOS and toggle between the two modes. Every other host will update immediately, but the most recent AUM update forces all audio units into dark mode.

Itโ€™s here

This app is what myself and others have been waiting for. A great piano roll from a great developer. Thank you for this app
