You should get this

If you make music on garage band and you like prog rock then this is the app for you even if you dont have the premium the 3 presets you get are cool and you can have 2 tape tracks play at the same time

Not many presets for the price

See title for review

Thank You!

iPhone Air update has corrected all issues discussed. Fingerlab also took the time to contact me! Thank You!

Too hard to miss black keys

It’s impossible to hit white keys without accidentally hitting the black keys in between. You don’t have to touch over an actual black key, the app treats everything chromatically. If you try to touch way down at the end of the key to avoid the black key, the app thinks you’re trying to close it, so the whole keyboard starts moving/trying to close the app. Unusable without some sort or other controller, which I don’t have. USELESS.

Love the app but update…

I love this app and have been using it for years. However, with the recent update AUM no longer recognizes it in any of my older projects, essentially telling me it isn’t installed even when it is. Is there a way for this app to be updated so that wouldn’t happen, as this has now damaged dozens of hours of work?

It’s amazing

Except for the fact that I need to pay to get strings, but that aside it’s a really warm and nice sound. Ripped out of the 60s.

Can't turn off app?

Generic keyboard app with no off button. I have to restart my iPhone to shut it down! Not cool!

Sounds great, but midi not working

Title tells the tale. My iPad Pro has many midi inputs (recognized by apps such as Numa Player), but this mellotron app does not see them. Can’t use it if it fails to see the available midi inputs.

Awesome.

That’s all. Good night

Simulazione ben fatta.

La App è fatta bene, molto semplice e intuitiva. I suoni sono perfetti, con quel sapore un po’ antico. Una volta sbloccata la versione completa - il prezzo è più che ragionevole - c’è anche la possibilità di un minimo di editing dei suoni attraverso un inviluppo ADSR e una serie di riverberi. L’unica pecca, ma è un parere soggettivo, è l’estensione della tastiera a circa tre ottave, che poi era effettivamente l’estensione dello strumento originale.
Con un semplice cavo midi si può collegare alla tastiera e il Mellotron è con voi. Ottimo lavoro.

Súper !!! Mellotron

Gran sonido !!! Recordando grandes temas de la historia del rock sinfónico !!!

Constantly crashes

Crashes immediately after opening. Fix this please and thanks

Great app, good sounds and nice little group of FX

This app is a solid solution for anyone looking to add a Mellotron to their instrument list. It sounds great. Definitely recommend the IAP. The FX are handy and the Envelope control is essential. Plus you get a bunch more sounds.

I love this mellow synt like moog

Really awesome project with care over the sounding. Really great ‘ ✨💫🪐🫶🏼🙌🏼

Crash town

Crashed 5 times in a row on iPhone 14 pro max. No time for weak sauce:(

thanks for fixing the incompatible in app purchase

much appreciated.

Mellowsound issue

When I open the app, I have no ability to close it and have to turn off iPhone to close it.

Awkward gaps

I love the sound on this instrument, but the downside is if the divider between the white keys is touched even slightly, it triggers the sharps or flats above them, quite a lot. In fact playing on a glass screen (iPad or iPhone) makes it useless, as it’s difficult not to get that gap avoidance perfected. I’m a 6’3” keyboard player with big hands.

This results is the odd randomised note when playing, enough to ruin the playing experience.

This bug prevents me from buying the upgrade version.

I’ve been playing (full sized) synths for over 40 years without issues, except with this app. All other synth apps I have on my devices. don’t do this.

Hence two stars.

Perfect

Fantastic app - will there be any updates in the future which feature the full array of sound cards which come with the new mellotron? Either way - perfect app and sound

I love this app!! I use it on a lot of stuff. Great sounds and Fingerlab as the best customer service!
