Benchmark for emulation

This is a wonderful example of engineering software built for purpose - so many features to uncover in here, excellent integration to network and Bluetooth MIDI including fine 14-bit controllers, AUv3/DAW integration, Ableton, accelerometers, LFO automation on all parameters, audio sharing apps too! With so many vintage instruments out there still to be emulated and this should be the reference of how it’s done! Great work

So unique

I love this app not only does it have all the components of the VCS; it’s beautifully laid out. There are not many synths that allow external inputs and user supplied samples including the ability to record them directly, as nd sequencer. I wish it were also available as a native mac app. I’d buy it in a heartbeat!

Stellar!

Being a lifelong pink floyd and Richard Wright fanatic,this is the closest most will come to obtaining an instrument that Richard used. The sound is amazing and it works great. Took years to write this review lol but well deserved!

Amazing Synthesizer!!!!!

I’ve been using the iVCS3 for a few years now and it never get’s old. It can just keep surprising you with incredible sounds. Processing guitar = INSTANT SPACE ROCK! There is no better modular synthesizer app. It will be used by musicians for BILLIONS of years!

Still brilliant after all these years

I use this app inside Cubasis 3 on my iPad Air 4 quite regularly, it works perfectly with Automation. Could’ve be without it, no other app can create the sounds of iVCS3 👌

No longer works!

After several updates it has become impossible to select any presets. All purchases are now inaccessible!!!
Just blank pages when navigating to a set pf presets.
Same problem iOS 16 & 17.

Response from developer

The MIDI assignations does not works in AUv3 since it pass through the host, please read carefully the user guide. I suspect that is a malicious review since I’ve got a similar review for other apeSoft apps by the Reviewer4Apps

Don’t waste your time

They have stopped supporting the app won’t even open.

Love it!

Please make available on all Apple Silicon.
Would LOVE to use this on a desktop or laptop!

Crash

Every time i try to load ivcs3 it crashes immediately…i paid a decent amount of money for this with all the packs. Is there a fix for this? It is an awesome sound generator, but it must work…

Every nun needs a Synthi

Holy wow. This is a gorgeous emulator of a weird and wonderful synthesizer. I discovered this while browsing through the Trunk Records online catalogue, and now it’s my favorite app by a lot. Made with love by and for music nerds.
