### 3/5 — Love this app - just one issue with the new update

*2024-01-27*

**PLEASE FIX VIBRATO ISSUE**

love the app, but the vibrato settings still reset each time it is switched on and off. I’m a touring musician who uses the app for keys and this is the only issue. Thank you 🙏🏻

### 3/5 — Love this app - just one issue with the new update

*2023-05-18*

EDIT: I still love the app. Unfortunately I also still am having the same issue with Vibrato where I have to reset the knobs each time I want to turn on the effect. If I do not do that, it reverts to both a slower and more shallow depth. It started happening in the update before last if that is helpful. If you could fix this one issue that would be great 👍🙏 I love this app - it really does nail the Vox Jaguar sound (I have one ;-) ) And thank you for updating it recently. I enjoy being able to resize the keys, etc. I do have one issue, which is that, since the update, each time I reopen the app, even though my setting for Vibrato speed & depth remain the same on the knobs, they sound very diminished. As soon as I adjust them even slightly, they return to my preset sound I initially set them at. It would be good to return to having them set permanently to the same settings each time I open the app. Running iPadOS 16.3 on an iPad Pro 12.9. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Great VOXY App under a Fiver!

*2021-08-26*

Great value Authentic 60s Sounds best played via MIDI.

The Flute, Bright, Brass, etc are Basically the select the 4 drawbars fully in or out.

Overall tone control via Contour. Assignable MIDI channel.

If you want to visit the V Continent then this is for you.

### 3/5 — Would get 5 stars but......

*2021-03-07*

Would get five stars but keeps leaving notes hanging.
The sound is great but it keeps leaving notes playing after keys are released rendering it unusable

### 5/5 — Great sounds

*2019-12-17*

Please develop it and update it

### 5/5 — Sounds Like a Vox Jaguar

*2019-08-20*

I’ve tried to find a good combo organ sound with Galileo and Korg module apps and none of them compare to this one. I own a Vox Jaguar and if I close my eyes I seriously cannot tell the difference between this app and the real thing. I actually think this was sampled straight from a jaguar. I highly recommend this to anyone that wants that 60s sound on a budget. Can you guys please make a Farfisa app?

### 4/5 — Please add a volume control

*2019-07-13*

Absolutely love this little organ but it’s far too quiet on the iPhone standard speakers. Please add a volume control like the other organ

### 4/5 — 早速ライヴで使わせて頂きました

*2018-10-14*

コンボオルガンの再現というこだわりを否定してしまうリクエストかも知れませんが、鍵盤を2段表示出来る機能を付けて頂けますとiPhone上での演奏がもう少し楽になるのではないかと実際にライヴで使ってみて感じました。
あと鍵盤を押さえている最中に音色のボタンをオンにしても鍵盤を離すまで音が変わらないので、変化する様にして頂けると嬉しいです。

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2018-06-29*

I have galileo 1 and 2 (probably the best hammond app ever) but this sound is 100% spot on for that Vox continental (ray manzarek doors) sound.  Blown away. Sounds completely natural
