Leave a Review KORG iPolysix for iPad
A Faithful Recreation of a Legend
I got this app last year and I can now write with confidence, this is another home run by Korg's apps division.
It amazes me that the Poly just has one oscillator, but can create sounds so lush that you'll swear you have a multi oscillator synth.
I have created many sounds in it and it is very easy to tweak, which I like. Also, the way that you can automate parameters is nothing short of amazing.
I have been thoroughly satisfied by the way you can create a complete song with just one app plus the ability to integrate with others via audiobus is also fantastic.
I hope we keep seeing great apps from Korg's apps team.Show lessC3l3$t1n0
Beautiful
It is said below that this synth is limiting. This is not quite true. If you have only two synthesizers and a couple drum parts, it brings out the most creative parts of music making in you.
The Polyseq is also very intuitive and easy to use, the sequencer being a monster.
The Polysix synthesizer is also enormous and wonderful with dual XY Kaoss pads which can be set to just about any scale you can think of--and not think of.
The drums are rather monotonous, even the ones you make yourselves, because there are limited controls for them, yet it brings out your true music spirit when you really figure out how they work.Show lessMan Who Reviews
Great but limited
I'm giving this 5 stars because the sequencer is an awesome addition to this synth, and finally Korg is understanding that users want to be able to compose, sequence and mix all within a single app.
But the sequencing is limited as patterns cannot be laid onto one another, limiting the polyphony to just two simultaneous synths. Still, you can write a whole lot -- but it keeps the app from being an actual composing environment that it could have been.
I'm still looking to replace Fruityloops on my PC. And this app is clearly on the right track, but stops well before it fulfills it's promise. Still, 5 stars for being the best I've seen to date.Show lessPrinceCorum
Tempo Tempo Tempo
This app would easily get five stars if most of my time with it wasn't spent trying to adjust tempo I love the step sequencer,drum sounds, and presets but I'd love it even more if even there weren't decimals involved its too touchy . Add two arrows to make small adjustments after turning the dial, fix this and I'll easily give 5 stars and update the review.Show lessx RecoN x
Great tool, but no midi export and no audio copy.
This app, like a few others, needs to get it together. Midi export and audio copy should be available on all pro music apps.
Moving on these are some good sounds to be had here and features that, while limit, get you to learn hoe to be creative within its limited confines. And yet the sounds you can create are endless. That gives it one star and the easy of using the interface gives it another.
Now lets get that midi export and audio copy features in there for the full five stars.Show lessTmidiman
Flawless
I honestly can't think of anything bad to say about this. It feels like owning the real thing. I've had this for about 6 months or more now. You can get a lot of great sounds out of it. I own all of the Korg apps (except the Gorrilaz iElectribe), and I think they're worth every penny. They obviously put a lot of time and effort into making these applications great.Show lessBaked Potato Man
Brilliant but please fix tempo control!
Wonderful sound and features but the tempo control is truly maddening! This is 2013. Tempo control should be the easiest thing you should have to deal with. C'mon Korg. Fix this so I can use it without pulling my hair out!miguel fierro
UNBEATABLE
This is incredible! Everything about this is a home run! Please port over more of your vintage synths! THANKS!Adamjensen33
Almost perfect
Okay, great app my only huge complaint is I Need the ability to assign which parts I use through the midi. When using this live I need to tell it how to react to which part I assign it to not the other way around. However people don't get me wrong it is still one of the best synth apps.Mr b please
Good DAW
I have several synth apps for the iPad, and for $20, this is a pretty powerful soft synth/DAW. It's easier to use and more intuitive than the iMS-20, although the drum sounds aren't as full as I'd like. For a pure synth, Animoog is still my favorite, but this one has some good sounds that are easy to manipulate.
I wish you could do more that two effects on the waveforms, but for $20, I'm not going to complain. Plus you get the Kaoss pad, which is pretty cool. Not sure it tops FLStudio or Nanostudio, but it's respectable and worth including in your iPad synth arsenal.Show lessOblong Robber
