User reviews

Simply doesn’t work?

It just doesn’t work for me. I can hit all the buttons available to me just fine, but I can’t move either of the keys, the arrow buttons on the side don’t work, I’m essentially stuck with a lone keyboard in square format.
Is it just a problem with my phone or the software I’m unaware as I have a modern iPhone

Interface needs an update.

This is an old app, and as far as I can tell, patches can’t be changed, the keyboard can’t be scrolled, and preferences can’t be accessed. I gave it two stars because technically, the default patch does make a sound, but there is no access to any features at all as of January 2023. Until an update addresses this, this should be a free app, and even then, without the features, there are way better alternatives. I am now disinclined rot check out the two Famitracker Guitar counterparts, even for the dirt-cheap price.

It’s worth mentioning also that there is no Audiobus, AUM, Inter-App, or AuV3 support. That’s a bad sign for music making apps.

Usage

Honestly I’ve been looking for something like this. An 8-bit keyboard that made the actual sounds of an Atari game. The only thing I am concerned and a bit frustrated about is the response of me tapping the keys on the bottom part of the screen. The top one will respond pretty normally but the bottom one I tend to have to commonly double tap it to make it play. Other than that it’s really awesome!
