Verzaubert …

… den Klang in andere Dimensionen.

Wie alles von IceWorks - Klasse!

Wow… what a fab effects app this is !!

This app is bloody awesome! Just take a simple drone note and then add Koshiba and you’ve got an evolving groove to play with straight away! Can’t wait to hear what my Didgeridoo sounds like through this 😊 So glad I took a punt on this one 👍 Brilliant job from the creators on this, worth every penny!

MONO

A good idea for a plugin but this is in mono pathing only. Why that?

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. The latest version should have resolved this issue. If anyone encounters any further issues, please feel free to contact me via email.

More steps or patterns please

Great plugin but I need more than 16 steps. If you cant add more steps, then how about more patterns? (groups of 16 steps) and the ability to chain patterns? Or even midi control over pattern changes to create long switchable patterns in your DAW.

Or failing all of that, give us midi control over preset changing so that we can create longer patterns via automation. The only way to do this right now is to have multiple instances of the plugin with different patterns and to automate mute to switch patterns which is cumbersome.

My favorite rhythm machine

a nice addition would be, if different instances were able to interact with each other …

Best rhythmic gate

Best rhythmic gate

Amazing sound and creative possibilities. It’s well beyond the other sequenced gate offerings on iOS. The per-step filter, resonance, and drive settings make all of the difference. Very inspiring to use and can make more space in a mix as well. I use this on pads a lot, or any time I want to create some space and groove.

The presets are also very usable. It’s for way more than just trance, very inspiring, can create forward movement and bounce. It even has swing! Worth every penny.

Not working

Mine doesn’t make a peep - I hear nothing. I keep looking for the on/off switch. I do see blips in the arp. Just no sound.

Response from developer

I apologize for the inconvenience. However, on my devices, this effect app is working fine. Could you please email me what AUv3 host app (DAW, etc.), iOS version, device name you are using to solve your problem? support@icegear.net

Stroboscopic, pulsating awesomeness! 🧚‍♀️

This oozes pulsating rhythmic sonic yumminess; it allows you to create a diverse range of syncopated, emotive expression(s) ranging from subtle rhythmic overtones - to intense, stroboscopic fractured mayhem! it’s a highly creative tool as you can add subtle rhythmic overtones to different layers (or stems) to build up complex polyrhythms that evolve and interact over time or it can breath dynamic movement and life into pads, samples, ambience etc. Very original & useful with a well designed GUI (very intuitive)!

Bloody Incredible

I'm still getting my head around Koshiba's subtleties but one thing that could be changed for the better is the rate selection. It's a sequential selector, forcing me to audibly create undesirable audio artifacts by forcing the user to 'step though' undesirable rates till you hit the desired rate. The rate control would be better if they were directly selectable.

Superb

I’ve got more AUV units than I need but this one is a gem, it’s a missing link. Play poly pads and syncopate to your hearts content. It’s so simple and yet so complex when you want it to be. I’ve only been on it for 5mins and I’m hooked. If you want to create some seriously moving tracks, this will do it for you.

Great fx for guitar

Watched The Sound Test Room demo and was sold. Love putting the guitar through this. Great for adding some movement to drones too.

Another iceWorks lovely

This app is bomb like all iceWorks apps in my humble opinion! I own them all and they all have their unique strengths and sounds and never seem to overbog when using multiple auv3s.

This is good!

Just purchased, sounds like a great synced gate/ filter/ delay combo. Probably got some nice hidden features too.
