### 1/5 — Celesta sound?  Not at all

*2016-06-10*

I bought this app and the in app purchase for the Celesta keyboard sound.  This sounds nothing like a Celesta. It sounds like a piano with a percussive strike on each note. 
On an actual Celeste the key hammers strike metal chimes suspended over wood reverb boxes. Think glockenspiel but softer with reverb. And this ain't it.

### 2/5 — Little more than a toy

*2015-01-03*

Based upon the supplied piano keyboard, the quality of the samples appear to be not very good. Also, the lack of core MIDI support, especially if you would want to use the other instruments live in performance, makes this little more than a toy. Probably OK for kids, but not a serious instrument.
