Needs auv3 or audiobus
Like what I’m hearing but n0w way t0 use elsewhere seems to be stand alone only.
Brilliant and unique musical app
Brilliant app, with a really smart design making this probably one of the best experimental tools I’ve found. Highly recommend.
Beware of the white noise bug! Feels like work in progress at best.
!!!! Very important! This app has a bug which makes the app make a white noise for about 10 seconds at full volume completely randomly! This can potentially ruin your sound system and even your hearing! This happens consistently on an iPad 2019 running iOS 13.6.
I was really hoping that using it with a USB keyboard would make it faster to use but very little is gained by connecting it. Putting steps into the sequencer is at a level of some office machines from the 80’s, with arrow presses and necessity to look at the screen, not by feel, as you navigate through the grid.
The synth parameters page has to be operated by touch, not by keyboard so why bother using keyboard anyway? This page is separate and one has to navigate away from the main interface view to change parameters. This is done by pressing and sliding the values. Not very responsive and easy to do.
Sequencer grid is small and individual steps crammed (using it on iPad 2019), lots of space around it which feels like a waste.
No vertical mode.
The keyboard for putting notes is very small.
Toggling between dark and bright mode (moon and sun icon) has an incredible amount of latency of almost 3 seconds!
***In response to the the developer’s reply: If the white noise is there on purpose, this makes want to give the app even less than a one star rating. There’s no warning of the noise. Do you don’t realize it can ruin a sound system or hearing?

Response from developer
I'm sorry to see that you dislike Assemble, Matreve. White noise is periodically mixed in with the audio output while the app is not 'unlocked', and Assemble's IAP product consists in disabling the white noise. This serves to allow users to try the app and its key features before deciding whether to purchase it or not. Happily, it will not damage your speakers or your hearing. Since the time of your review, the redraw time required to alternate between the two visual themes has been shortened considerably. This improvement will feature in upcoming versions of Assemble and Assemble Light. If you have any further suggestions, then feel free to send them to me via my website: http://www.davidspry.io/
