Why is it recommended for iMPC pro 2 ?
I bought it because it was recommended for iMPC pro 2 but whenever I play along with the music it’s always off . When I use other iia apps they are on time and they aren’t recommended. Why is this app recommended when it doesn’t work well with the app ?Steel Hatez
Sound is decent by can’t recommend any Arturia Apps..
Time for an upgraded version .. lot’s of crashes.. looks like Arturia won’t be supporting any of their IOS Apps, can’t recommend any, due to lack of support.Prog Musician
Tabletop? Are You Kidding?
This sounds good but doesn’t play nice. I guess Arteria is gonna stick with Tabletop and not bother integrating their synths with the rest of the iOS music production universe. It needs auV3. C’mon guys!kk100
AUv3 Compatibility, PLEASE!
C’mon, Arturia! Bring ALL of your fine apps into compliance! Don’t neglect your iOS users!!!!Babble on One
Used To Love It. Not So Much Now. ☹️
I’ve had iMini for years and used to use and love it. But I’ve drifted away from it. I’ve actually owned a Model D since the late 70’s, but was always happy to have this (once great) app as a convenient and portable substitute for my iPads.
I fired it up today and I must admit that I’m very disappointed. According to the App Store, Arturia hasn’t updated it in 3 years. And it certainly shows!! No AUv3, Tap Tempo crashes the app, outdated connectivity options that are now greyed out rather than removed, no Bluetooth connectivity, blah, blah, blah.
I love and use Arturia hardware and software. Use their products all the time. But revisiting this particular app was a huge disappointment. They should update it or just drop it from the store. It’s obvious that they have forgotten it even exists.
This is not to badmouth Arturia as a company. They are great. But this app should be avoided.
Buy Moog’s very own version. It sounds and works great, and they stay on top of it. In fact, it was updated just 2 days ago. It’s based on their classic baby, and they treat it as such. 👍Show lessBadBadger55

Dropped the ball big time
Once upon a time this was one of my favorite iOS synth, sadly, the ball has been dropped by not making this an Audio Unit a year ago. Frankly, it’s no point to even bother making it one now since Mood released the model D, and to be honest, I literally forgot this existed.
At this point, Auria needs to just release something else and make sure it’s an Audio Unit, because if it isn’t, it will be a no sale.
While this still sounds good, I would not suggest it to anyone.
Audio Unit is the present/future of iOS and anyone who can’t grasp that should not develop for the iOS music platform.Show lessStrizbiz
Battery killer
Sounds great, but operates at 100% in the background and drains your battery.ce_n'est_pas_un_nom
Good sounds - some big flaws - better apps exist.
For the cost, this is a great MiniMoog emulator. The presets in the app are good, and there’s a lot of plasticity of sound. However, there are some big flaws - the Audiobus support really isn’t what it should be, the app is very rarely updated, and most importantly, the “Tap to set BPM” function is completely broken - on all platforms and versions of iOS, tapping this button instantly crashes the app every time. (Trust me, I tried this on a lot of iPads.) I used to have a review here that said I loved this app except for this one fatal flaw, but honestly - at this point, this app doesn’t impress me all that much. There are now a number of MiniMoog emulators on the market - most of all, Moog’s own Model D app, which looks and feels like iMini, except with a LOT more functionality and better sound. (And the BPM controls don’t crash the app!) My advice: skip the iMini and spend a few extra bucks on Model D instead. It’s worth it.Show lessJeff A Johnston
