DigiStix 2 AUv3 Plugin User Reviews

Top reviews

It's the beez kneez!

My desert island drum dealer. I've many iOS apps - for drums this covers it all. If it had an undo and simple sample audition I'd give it six stars.

Useful or isn't

Sounds are great, but there's no MIDI Channel select. If your keyboard is connected to your drum pads, look somewhere else unless you want random drum sounds while you play your keyboard. A lot of good sounds and presets, but I can't use it. Also I'd really like it if there was a real manual rather than linking to YouTube videos.

Cannot see import option to load drumkit bank b in digistix 2 standalone mode

I’ve watched YouTube videos until I went blind, but I still can't find an answer to my problem. I’m running 26.3 on an iPad Pro m5, deleted and reinstalled, performed numerous internet searches No Luck! I really want to use the software, but I need resources to address issues. Looking forward to an answer, thank you.

Checked it out on my iPhone, same issue. Could it be because of the new iOS update?

Too confusing!

As a complete beginner I’m really frustrated with this app. At first glance when watching YouTube reviews everyone is raving about it. But the reality is it’s very complicated to use, even with some prior knowledge of drum machines.
Unlike other apps, where the deep settings are tucked away behind logically organised menus, this app has everything in your face in one go, you just scroll up and down to see everything.
This makes it overwhelming if all you want to do is create a basic drum pattern and save it.
Even you use of colours and different size buttons would help, it’s just not nice, plus there are no official beginners guides that I can find on YouTube or anywhere else. The developers website is blank so that’s no use either.
I’m sure if your a polished pro who understands midi and all the jargon etc that it is a good app, but avoid if like me you’re a beginner.

New version 1.20 crashes

New version 1.20 crashes in standalone mode and as a plugin in Cubasis 3 when it reaches the end of the pattern in song mode. I’m using iOS version 18.3.1 on an iPhone. App has been great with some bugs since I purchased it about 9 months ago, but this current bug is making it unusable.

Need midi control

Is there a way to map faders or start and stop? Maybe I’m missing it

No refund???

I tried Digistix and it didn’t fit my workflow… BPM not syncing to host, and non fluid scrollable UI to change presets live, also racks weren’t mapped consistently… I thought I had right of withdrawal within 15 days but apparently they won’t refund me and now I’m stuck with an app that I won’t use at all…..

Исчезли все пользовательские паттерны

Неожиданно все сохраненные мной барабанные паттерны оказались пустыми и невозможно их использовать. Часы работы потрачены зря

Utilisation impossible dans Logic Pro iPad

Bonjour, je viens d’acheter l’application pour utilisation auv3 dans Logic Pro iPad. Impossible de charger l’audio unit sur ma piste midi. DigiStix apparaît bien dans les effets, mais refuse de se charger. IPad 10, Logic Pro à jour, iPadOS 18.2. Pouvez-vous m’aider svp ?

Needs to utilize full screen. Great app otherwise.

The white border is driving me nuts. Especially in dark settings. Also on an iPad mini, that white space takes up usable real estate. Is it possible to have a mode that goes full screen so it’s easier to access items on a small screen? (Especially in portrait mode… it’s doesn’t seem to use the entire vertical space) I think it could also look more integrated as an app rather than decorating it to look like a physical module.

Also thinking about using this for live gigs. Possible to have a low graphic usage mode where the decorative elements and some VFX are removed to improve reliability and reduce chances of a crash? (Haven’t experienced one yet but just a thought)

Thanks!

Not ideal for iPhone, unpleasant UI

I think this app is powerful and an important tool for iOS music production, but I’m the type that won’t buy an app unless I can use it on an iPhone as well. I’m sorry but the UI on iPhone is unacceptable (as for all of “4pockets” plugins) and should be pulled from the app store unless it gets a redesign

Great Drum Plug, need more midi control

Since it's the only one I could find with multiple levels on each sample, it is doing nicely... The midi control/learn could be greatly expanded though- for example how about pattern erase?
thanks!

Super App!

Jeden Cent wert! 👍👍👍
Undo button wäre noch schön…

God, so close…

Midi Integration is basically only on Parameters, pads and patterns, from randomization to melodic canvas, sequence length, even “clear pattern” and an ENORMITY (this app is so complex and beautiful ) of other parameters, all of this is accessible only opening the app. This makes it pretty narrow for a live situation as much as not really easy to integrate in a unitary producer environment ( touch osc i.e.).
Is there ANY chance to have an update in this direction?
Any answer is very appreciated!
Thank you so much for your past, and finger crossed future, work!!

Does a lot but not what I need

The description mentions midi mapping, but that’s only for the note numbers that trigger the pads. I need a way to control the filter cutoff and panning of individual pads with MIDI CCs. You can adjust these parameters with onscreen controls but there’s no way to map them to external controllers. If all the controls were linkable/mappable to CCs that would make it so much more usabe as a software sampler to play with my external controller.

👍😀

😀👍

Dommage

ADSR et filter par pad/sample please.

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

This app is pretty awesome….. please add an option so that we can remove the white border and use it in full screen that would help some of the things looking too small plus the white is annoying to look at

This is his most enigmatic creation!

If there is anything that would consist both divinity and artistic integrity, Digistix 2 is that thing. I, I don’t know how Paul does it, but the sheer amount of artistic freedom and creativity he puts in his app is unparalleled.

Among all the developers in the iOS platform, someday Paul and his 4pockets creations would considered Hall of Famers.

His Shimmer, Reverb, DigiStix2, vocal soloist, sideband, Time Machine, and others are just phenomenal.

None quite so equal, none will ever be.

Good app

Really well made application. It has a lot of features ad is cheap for what it does. As others have already said, round robin functionality for each layer would be really useful and would take the potential to higher level.
