Disappointing noise on my older iPad
Horribly disappointing. Even though the App Store says it’s compatible with my 4th generation iPad mini, I get horrible static and drop outs. Unless I’m not running any other apps and set it to the lowest audio sample rate. I feel like I wasted my money.Great synth, missing some key features
Great synth overall. It is feature packed, works well with the other Moog iOS apps with regards to the virtual patching capabilities, and sounds amazing. I appreciate the inclusion of two synths and all the effects one could desire.
The only quarrels I have are with MIDI and sync capabilities pertaining to the iPad version. I was bummed to see Mariana missing Ableton link, as well as the ability to recognize multiple MIDI inputs (like Animoog Z). I realize there is a desktop version and I own it, but I am use the iPad as an instrument feeding directly into my mixer. I found a workaround for using multiple MIDI inputs via MidiFire, but would really appreciate the ability to sync the standalone iOS version of Mariana to an external clock (Ableton, in my case).Moog midi controller¿
I have been using all but the Model 15 for a while now, including the Mooger Fooger apps, Model D, and Animoog. Mariana is exceptional for me, because it didn’t break the bank to have a powerful bass synth. Eventually I may own a physical synth, but with Mariana’s interface and power house sounds, I may not ever need it. What I would love to see Moog come out with is a midi controller with all the knobs and keys that we would need for Animoog, Mariana, the Moogerfoogers, Model D, Model 15, etc. Then we would have the physical touch to work with. Maybe it could even be similar to a Sub 37 in form factor, or Animoog, with a placement for the ipad? Just food for thought.
