Crap

Doesn’t work. The “Analog” is the only part that plays. The rest is nothing.

It’s Fantastic! Also needs upgrades!

The app is really worth playing and making music with! The 808, 909, 303, reverb, distortion, delay, and filter really works! Add on UPDATE: can you add crashes to the drum machines like for the 909 and the other ones? Also the 303 is not really accurate to the real TB303, when I adjust the knobs for the 303 extreme high Churps we’re going and I didn’t like that. Yes the 303 has chirps, but the one in this app has lots. If so can you probably fix that? Thank you. :)

Nice!

UPDATE - still worth 5 stars to me. Great for acidic loops. Easy export to AudioShare. Still like it!

I'm giving it 5 stars right away because I found it so intuitive and easy to get some interesting results from. Compared to other similar apps it just seemed to click for me. I bought the IAP pretty quickly after trying it out. There's plenty more to explore but I'm already sold. I think they did a good job with this so far.

Ignore The Hate

RD4 is magnificent: one of the best workflows I've ever encountered for iOS music making and just the right balance of choice x limitation. The IAP is a bargain and the fact that one can have multiple 303 (or other) instances running simultaneously is a thing of pure beauty. RD4 sounds amazing as well and we're lucky to have it. Easy 5 stars.

Was good now it’s not

Was a free app. Update is just to pay to get the features back you used to have? And now your drums and bass lines are out of sync? Update? No new look, no new features, just $$ to get back what you had. Just an out of sync, dated looking rip off of the mc303. REALLY? Your update is to take away features and charge me to use them again. Just leave it as it was and make a newer version with a few more features and an updated design. I would have bought it. Greedy guys. Really. Make a new app and sell that. Don’t just disable functions and put them behind an iap. And on top of that, everything’s out of time now. Unusable.
