I would love to be able to control the tempo of the rhythmic additions. I bought the app thinking I could use the tracks as live pads but can’t really use the sounds that add in. ### 3/5 — Excellent sounds *2018-09-04* When I first heard the sounds I was very excited Bc the sounds are beautiful, the apps is extremely user friendly, and the transitions are seamless. However, after playing with it for a bit a couple major problems bc apparent. The first problem I noticed is a lot of the pads have a rhythm to them. This is great if you’re using the pads by themselves but to use them as backing track with a worship team causes serious problems. Granted, you are able to turn down the rhythm part but then all the background noises are gone to and the only thing you are left with is a simple pad. I love the nuances in the sounds so I hate loosing those. The second problem is when I switch to a different apps the pad stops. I use my iPad for lyrics and chords and it is unfortunate I can’t have the pad playing and read my music from the same device. Having said that, the pads are some of the nicest I have heard and the developer does a great job making them sound the way they do but the pads are more geared as a stand alone system and not as backing tracks like pads are commonly used in worship music today. ### 3/5 — This can be better *2018-08-02* Great app, but doesn’t continue playing if I open another app. It would be good to have the app continue to play if I switch to find a chord chart. ### 3/5 — Josh's *2018-01-04* Couldn't find support email. The app closes as soon as it opens. Restarted iPad 2 and no change. ### 5/5 — Cool app for relaxation and reading *2017-10-28* Love this app for reading the Bible and just reading books about Jesus.
