Reviews of Xynthesizr

  • This is a bug not a feature

    Lovely and fun sequencer and synth but one glaring issue: fine tune won’t work when you land on a incremental BPM for example 73.3. If you have ever shared files between devices or friends you know the problems a decimal can bring. This is when you need fine tuning! Unfortunately fine tuning control only changes the number before the decimal. Maybe the dev needs to Google what fine tuning means? Idk I hate anything that is not exact BPM. No more wishy washy in between beat counts please
  • Excellent

    I can’t stop exploring all the great features of this app. Every time I wonder if a particular feature might be implemented, I find that it not only there, but it exceeds my expectations. I liked the app so much that I purchased the other two apps by this developer.
  • Best step sequencer

    Easy to use, stable, fast to program; use it to control your other iPad synths and drum machines. Visually, you can be looking at up to four different MIDI outputs simultaneously on one screen interface, which can be very helpful: bass, drums, keys x 2 for example. Also good for real-time tweaking of sequences on the fly. 32-steps, you can choose seq. length, so odd time signatures like 9/8 are no problem, which is a BIG plus. Internal synth is actually pretty good too. Velocity programming is a breeze, would love to see that extended to other modulation, filters or volume. This also has very robust generative features.
