User reviews

Yes!

I suddenly thought, would it be great if such an app existed. After a quick trip of 2 others watch were virtually unusable I found this. It’s perfect. The fact that it has perfect effects for the Pablo sound is the icing on the cake. Well done whoever you are. And thank you.

Too quiet to enjoy

The sound is very appealing, except there is no perceivable volume control. I see where a review that was posted a year ago reported the same issue. If it’s a user issue, then some sort of in-app FAQ or other instructional help would suffice. Otherwise, please pump up the volume!

Response from developer

A fix for this recent issue, (the review you refer to was 1 month ago) will be available shortly. Thank you for your patience.

Volume?

I have an iPhone and was using this app in the past. With recent updates there’s no volume. No matter how much I turn up the volume you can’t hear it through the speaker. The sound is really low. Not sure what happened but the app is useless if I can’t hear the sound.

Leider nicht mehr in GarageBand aufrufbar als externes Instrument

… und deswegen für mich nutzlos geworden ..-

Response from developer

Melodica maybe loaded as an external AUv3 instrument in Garageband.

Excellent sound - now usable as an AUV3!

This is a very good recreation of the sound of a melodica, which with the inbuilt reverb and delay, is capable of easily producing those plaintive sobs and brass-ish stabs featured in dub music. And now, after a long wait, it is a proper AUV3 and so completely usable as an instrument inside AUM. Note that during installation I 1) opened it standalone and 2) had to soft reboot my iPad before AUM could find it, but now it does, and those lovely, lovely plaintive sobs are fully available, Great to see a dev persevere and make their instrument better and more usable. :)
