Outstanding

Limited utility.

This app could easily get at least two more stars out of me if its functionality weren’t so limited. It has no AuV3 extension or inter-app support, and as far as I’ve been able to tell, there’s no way to export what you create without physically plugging in your device to a recording unit, and who is gonna do that in 2023?

The interface is neat, and I like the innovative alternatives to instruments for music creation. But as far as I can tell, this app is for dabblers and hobbyists. For those who are a little more serious, I recommend paying a few dollars for New Path and/or Musyc Pro.

Fun, Intuitively

Much like Yellofier, this is a fun zero-to-tunes app with a short learning curve. The inbuilt tutorial is short and effectively brings you up to speed. Great work, dev. I’d purchase this app to fund updates.

I absolutely love this

Love generative sequencing and this is such a great example of good UI. It needs an update though because on my iPhone 12 Mini a few buttons are tucked under my camera notch. Hopefully it’s a quick port! I would be so psyched to revise to 5 stars :)

Genius idea.

I kept waiting for it to crash but it didn’t! Can’t wait to see what else might be in store. Great job! Love it
