Artifacts???

I had this on my iPad for years and loved it. But it now seems to have some sort of common buzzing noise on most of its presets. I don’t know enough about these things but could these be ‘artifacts’? Whatever, for me, at the moment it’s unusable.

Why is it recommended for iMPC pro 2 ?

I bought it because it was recommended for iMPC pro 2 but whenever I play along with the music it’s always off . When I use other iia apps they are on time and they aren’t recommended. Why is this app recommended when it doesn’t work well with the app ?

Sound is decent by can’t recommend any Arturia Apps..

Time for an upgraded version .. lot’s of crashes.. looks like Arturia won’t be supporting any of their IOS Apps, can’t recommend any, due to lack of support.
