User reviews

Oh man. If only you knew what this could do.

Nevertheless it does not have auv3 support which remains its major flaw. Other than that it is nuts.

Great app

Great app, I just wish the UI had an option to increase contrast a bit. It is hard to see controls in certain lighting conditions. Other than that itโ€™s a 5 star app.

Good, but...

Where is the AUV3 option? This is an amazing app. Please upgrade it!

Unique

I love Erik Sigth a.k.a. Humbletunes apps. Imaginative, inexpensive, innovative and like nothing else on iOS. Buy them all.

Like the old version more

I don't understand why the dimetradon is completely different from previous versions. The old version you put out way more interesting sound than this version. And it was awesome on a drum beat. This one feels like a step backward. The unpredictable nature is what made it great in previous versions of the app. That's gone now. Please bring that back. It was the most interesting and unique feature of the app. And my drum beats need it
