Whale of an app, indeed!
I’ve been scouring for chiptune-making applications lately, and arguably the chief among them for iOS is Moby Chip. The interface is appealing, appropriate, and very easy to learn, sand the sounds are as authentic as anything I’ve heard so far.
I would give it five stars but for the fact that it has no Audiobus/AUM/AuV3 support. Otherwise it would be perfect. I can certainly export to WAV and patch it from AudioShare through effects, but it would be so much better to do it in real-time. Maybe, with any luck, a future update will give me cause to bump it up one star more.

Worth it.
This is the better end of the stick. In other words, It’s absolutely amazing. I have had a lot of interest in remaking 8-bit music, so I scraped together 8 dollars and bought this. And I have to say: AN APP LIKE THIS IS WORTH ITS PRICE. So if you’re into making chip tune music buy this it’s perfect and worth the price.

Best chip app
I was caught off guard by this one and bought it instantly. iOS has a serious lack of quality chip tune tools and Moby Chip is a HUGE step in the right direction for chip tune enthusiasts and makers.
Everything is intuitive, and if you need, the manual is easily accessible right up top. My only request would be to have the option of playing it with a MIDI keyboard, as I could see myself using this as part of my live electronic/chip/ambient sets. Oh! And maybe to be able to load it as an AUV into something like Cubasis or AUM.
But even if these never happen it doesn’t change the fact that this is a great sounding, great looking, and great quality app. I hope Dan keeps this one fresh, maybe even puts out some stand alone chip synths/drum machines...?
Congratulations!!!!!! I’ll be telling everyone so know about this.

Response from developer
Glad you like it! No plans for adding MIDI keyboard or AUv3 functionality to Moby Chip at this time. To better address these features, I’m in the planning phase for a desktop synth plugin using the Moby Chip sound engine (AU, VST3, etc.).
A masterpiece of its kind
The complete package: sexy, smart, funny, and an excellent cook.
