Does what AUM couldn’t do for me. So this is my new click for external gear. *2021-12-25* Where AUM behaved strangely, this just works. So I disabled external sync in AUM and just use this synced to all iOS with link. ### 5/5 — Brutal App *2021-10-05, version 1.0.3* Soy usuario desde hace algunos meses y va fenomenal Algo que si me gustaría tener es la opción de hacer una lista de BPM para cambiar con una sola pulsación pero muy bien ojalá vean este comentario y se animen a añadirlo ### 5/5 — Works perfect *2021-08-05* I needed to link over personal hotspot to two Mpc and with a quick download and a push of a button everything is in sync with the link to midi app ### 5/5 — As simple as touching, As useful as a⚙️Gearbox⚙️ *2021-01-03* I find this app,very useful and powerful for those who want to use multiple musics (midi) apps synchronized to each other and external devices. ### 5/5 — Einfach, genial, unersetzlich! *2020-10-30* Meine alte Roland MC Groovebox läuft nun ganz easy mit meinen iPads synchron! Aber auch meine geliebte Rebirth RB-338 App, die eigentlich nur Midi-Sync unterstützt, läuft nun mit Abelton-Link perfekt synchron (obwohl die Entwickler ja meinen, das bei internen Apps kein gutes Ergebnis raus kommt!). Fazit: Die App ist totally geil und essential!!!! ### 5/5 — Perfect for modular *2020-10-19* Works perfectly with modular gear on the go. Can sync to the midi 1U on my little intellijel palette ### 5/5 — Toll danke! *2019-06-08* Mein keystep von arturia funktioniert jetzt mit ableton link über egal welchen synth. Und das 4free. Vielen dank dafür! ### 5/5 — Great App *2019-03-13* I only have issues with the clock when in Bluetooth but the usb works like a charm ### 5/5 — OhCkei! *2019-03-01* Very nice. Your music . ### 5/5 — Love it! Essential! *2018-05-20* Can we get an update with the new start / stop sync support added with Ableton 10? ### 5/5 — Brilliant! *2018-05-11* More stable than midi clock out of the sound card! ### 5/5 — Top *2018-03-16* Einfaches Programm, das genau tut was es soll❗️👍 ### 5/5 — Perfect *2017-12-05* Used this with Arturia sparkLE Drum Machine, Arturia Microbrute and my Juno which is fairly getting on a bit and has occasional clock drift when linking with traditional midi-midi leads. But using all 3, the Juno simply as a midi keyboard controller, Ableton Link is one of the best things to ever happen on iOS and if it weren’t for Link and Audiobus, music production on iDevices would still be in the Stone Age. This app keeps a really tight MIDI clock and the sheer number of hours I’ve used it, I’ve not noticed a single flaw. It really is perfectly made - not essential obviously but seeing as Ableton Link now pretty much comes as standard in all new and is being added to most older audio apps it’s obviously here to stay - such a simple concept with such a huge impact on how music can be made on Apple devices with Hardware connected. With this there’s no need to rely on one piece of hardware’s internal clock to keep the whole lot in sync, this just sits there doing its thing without any problems or annoyances. Whoever came up with using Ableton Link with IAA is a genius but so is the dev of this small, simple but extremely important app. GREAT GREAT APP!!! ### 5/5 — Hell Yeah! THanKS!!! *2017-10-15* NI Traktor controls and perfectly syncs/beat phases to my 1998 Propellerheads Rebirth RB-338 2.01 (on Win10) AND my TR-8!!!! I can't believe it! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Out of date *2018-10-10* No support for new ableton 10 features like stop start sync. ### 3/5 — Works but crashes at times *2020-04-12* I have been using this With Endlesss.fm as they have yet to implement midi sync and currently only support Ableton Link. Works great to sync my midi gear to the app but often crashes Endlesss and IPad too at times. I can run Endlesss for several hours manually setting tempo on my hardware so there seems to be a problem with Link to Midi , feel free to send me a debug version to track down the problems ### 3/5 — Great but no built in transport follow *2018-09-12* Love this app for starting my hardware midi gear, but it has to be manually queued to start in time with audiobus. Would be great if it could be set to receive midi start/stop from audiobus or general link network. ### 4/5 — Works at it should *2020-12-03, version 1.0.3* I’m giving you four stars just only because I’m waiting for a MIDI to Ableton Link sync version for which I’d pay a reasonable price. You could get some ideas from MIDI Link Sync app, that was a complete app but get some lacks after iOS 14 release, its developer stops working on it. ### 4/5 — シンプルで解りやすい *2019-02-26* 元々はハードウェアシンセ用に作られたらしくて、アプリ用には非推奨とされているのですが使えてます。 YAMAHAのようなLink未対応のアプリも、とりあえず同期させることは可能。 Link対応しているアプリでも、BPMの設定がしづらいような場合はこのアプリを使うと便利です。 ### 4/5 — Great tool, but please update *2018-03-03* and support the latest Ableton Link Start/Stop Feature ### 4/5 — Tap tempo *2017-06-02* Would have been 5 stars if it wasn't for this one simple oversight. No tap tempo? ### 5/5 — App für die Ewigkeit *2026-06-26* Tut, wie ich gerade sehe, seit 10 Jahren exakt das, was sie verspricht, mit der Präzision und Robustheit eines Schweizer Uhrwerks. Großartig :) ### 5/5 — Necessity *2026-06-04* Incredibly useful MIDI config device and more ### 5/5 — La mia salvezza! *2026-01-17, version 1.0.3* Sono riuscito a sincronizzare korg gadget con seqtrack! Magari un aggiornamento per fa in modo che si rimpicciolisca la screen su iPadOS la pagherei pure! Speriamo venga aggiornata e seguita nel tempo! Grazie. ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Perfect App but one Request *2025-05-23* I love the simplicity of this interface. I would love to see transport control enable/disable in options so I can use this app as a transport control to start/stop ableton. ### 5/5 — :) *2024-04-22* Hello. Would you please update this simple, excellent and essential app? Its started crashing :/ ### 5/5 — Connectivity *2024-03-12* All-to-the-good! ✌🏽😎 ### 5/5 — Great but can’t offset latency in 17.2.1 *2024-03-05* Great app I’ve used for years but adjusting latency in iOS 17.2.1 crashes the app every time. Need to search for an alternative now ### 5/5 — Does what it says *2023-07-06* No complaints. ### 5/5 — Life Saving App *2023-01-21* If you want to sync drum machines or anything midi controllable with Serato, this is how you do it. So grateful for this 🙏🏼 ### 5/5 — Super easy Setup Electribe 2 *2022-11-04* Ein top Setup mit dem kleinen Helferlein alles im Takt zu halten, auch mit MIDI einen Ableton Takt Tirggel zu nutzen.
