### 5/5 — Excellent lo fi machine!

*2020-03-13*

Picture the scene: a wonky reel to reel tape machine in a damp cellar is playing old torch songs broadcast from a 1940s valve radio set, songs of loss and despair... Electrogene is the tool that will take you there. Absolutely excellent, clean, simple to understand FX app which lets you mix bit crushing, filtering and modulations together in musically creative ways at the drop of a hat. Extra bonus points for a randomiser, and the fact that all the controls are exposed for further LFO tweaking via midi using something like Art Kearns’ midiLFOs. Lovely work.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2019-03-26*

Nicely executed saturator effect with some nice additions like drift and drift rate.  easy to dial in the needed warmth and low on cpu resources.  Hope the dev has more like this coming in the future.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2019-03-23*

I happened to stumble across this app purely by chance. It is awesome! I like it better than any other apps of its type I have used. It just sounds awful in the best way possible! GET IT!
