The best iOS Instrument - No Longer Works
I have loved Orphion since its inception many years ago. It is one of my favorite instruments I’ve ever played. Sadly, it no longer works. It became problematic a few years ago where it would have cracking audio using audio over the connection port. Now with latest iPadOS updates, Orphion just stopped working. On occasion it will work for a bit after a full iPad reboot, but then falls apart. It also renders weird with UI elements out of place especially on iPad mini. Ive tried so many times to get in touch with the developer. Emails, Social, Forum posts but, it seems to be abandon-ware. This is my last resorts attempt to plead for an update to give this incredible instrument life again. Would be a dream to have it load up again and play in a host like Loopy Pro. In happy to beta test if its helpful! I’d want to help keep this alive in any way I can. May be with an update we could get the “special playing option” in there again.

crackles
Crackles on iPad 9 with iPad OS 18. I see another user reports same on an M4 device, so it's not just the hardware. This was a fun and useful app, have used with all of my iPad going back to second generation. Hope output quality can be improved!
Crackles on M4 OS 18
I really love Orphion. It’s a wonderful touch instrument. However, I am experiencing crackling on my M4 iPad with iPadOS 18.
Beautiful instrument
Expressive control and unique sound make an evocative instrument.
Another broken app (yawn)
Does not work in AUM. Virtual MIDI cannot find instruments when loaded as IAA. Workaround before I delete? Its not a good sign when the forum web page brings up an error.
