### 2/5 — Not sure how to feel

*2024-02-15, version 1.1.3*

I would appreciate if there there is an ability for the app to work with newer iPads. However, devices don’t even read new iOS is there a way for you guys to update the app and also make it compatible with V10? I am a DJ educator and it would save me a lot of time and resource instead of getting a physical RMX 1000 for my DJ School. Thank you.

### 2/5 — Xpad non va a tempo

*2020-05-09, version 1.1.3*

Xpad non va a tempo con input... funzione inutilizzabile

### 4/5 — Not bad but could be awesome

*2019-07-24, version 1.1.3*

I really like this software recreation and it sounds really good when utilised vía Audiobus.
One thing missing for me: MIDI assign ability. I’d really like to map the controls to a hardware MIDI controller for Live use.
It hasn’t had an update in a while, hopefully Pioneer will read this review and implement this suggestion. For the cost of the app it would definitely benefit and convince more to buy it I think. I pretty much most other FX apps have this type of functionality built in now

### 1/5 — Rip-off

*2019-07-14, version 1.1.3*

If you have iTunes cloud none of your songs are supported. Complete rip-off and waste of money.

### 1/5 — App has so much potential but needs updates...

*2019-07-06, version 1.1.3*

The app works ok with my DJM nexus 2 but there is latency in the cue on headphones when using with DJ sotware, even at all the lowest latency. It also needs a sample loader function so i can load my own sample banks. A biggers user interface is a must well. There is so much wasted space, why? Customers pay top dollar to use this app with your mixers but it's not done very well for ipads. Adding ableton link would be nice as well. So please pioneer, modernise this app for your loyal customers.

### 2/5 — Does

*2019-06-05, version 1.1.3*

Does not work with computer

### 1/5 — Inability to lock on to BPM

*2019-03-16, version 1.1.3*

Using this with my Pioneer DJM-450 via the usb effects send and return. Unfortunately this doesn’t really work very well...the app can’t lock on to the BPM of the track being played which means the x-pad is all but useless as out of timing with the music being played. Even when you tap to correct the BPM it still doesn’t work. 

On top of that, a touchscreen doesn’t really lend itself to lots of controls and knobs, and while it can never really mimic a hardware device, it just doesn’t really work terribly well regardless. 

I had high hopes for this in that it might replace my RMX-500 (hardware effects), but it doesn’t! Still looking for some decent effects that will work via the usb send / receive through audiobus....the search continues. 

Pioneer - must do better.

### 3/5 — Plante avec Audiobus 3

*2019-02-08, version 1.1.3*

Plante au bout de 5 minutes avec Audiobus émet un son constant faut sortir de l’application et après ok

### 1/5 — No input

*2019-01-31, version 1.1.3*

Don‘t get any input signal from my djm750mk2 on my iPad Pro (2018). I just can play sampler, but no effects. 
The cable and iPad works well on other apps to record my mix, but I pay 20€ for a not working rmx app

### 3/5 — Please fix auto sync

*2018-07-15, version 1.1.3*

I love this app. It has convinced me to buy an rmx-1000 for real. The drawback is the auto sync simply does not work. It doesn’t even work for techno and minimal with pronounced 4/4 time signatures. Come on a Pioneer? You can do better than this. I’m a DJ and really want this to practice with. Even the tap tempo doesn’t work. I can tap a consistent tempo and it jumps all over the place. Barring that I love the app and effects.

### 4/5 — Please Update

*2018-03-02, version 1.1.3*

Please update this app. Thank you in advance😊

### 4/5 — This app is awesome, but it could do more.

*2017-01-16, version 1.1.3*

Honestly this app is one of my favourites, just love the Fx and the Ui. But please  Pioneer, make a iPhone version, implement midi mapping and Audio routing and rmx 1000 will be the best live Fx app out there.

### 4/5 — Pretty Good

*2016-11-03, version 1.1.3*

I actually think this is a good app; it's certainly underrated.

There is a glaring omission though: It is prime for AUv3, especially when used in a live performance/jam session with AUM. I hope the developer considers this for a future update.

### 1/5 — I thought Pioneer was a name you always associate with high quality standards  and products 😧

*2016-10-14, version 1.1.2*

1* For the price of this app being as it is a big let down  😧 i did have expectations with this app when i came across it in the appstore, 
I instantly thought Wow £14.99 for this thats a bit over priced for what it is but reassured my self that its got to be a great  app if its made by Pioneer and happily handed over my £14.99,
(Only to find out it has less drum samples, than a man with no arms farting on a snare-drum)

### 1/5 — Can’t change buffer

*2025-12-29, version 1.1.3*

App keeps crashing when changing buffer size in settings. Huge audio delay to v10 LF. App is completely useless for mixing. Waste of 20 bucks till they fix it. Don’t buy right now

### 1/5 — Delay from IPAD to mixer

*2024-01-24, version 1.1.3*

I have a newer iPad and hooked it up to my A9 mixer and I have been experiencing a delay of sound output. No chance in mixing/using effects. Cool idea and would be awesome without delay but doesn’t work with it iPad to A9 mixer.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2023-04-08, version 1.1.3*

Shameful and expensive app from a great brand that just believe in hardware products. You can process only music downloaded from Apple Music. Who the heck does need it?

### 1/5 — ライブラリの曲が選択できない

*2022-10-01, version 1.1.3*

古いアプリなのでサポートされていないせいか、曲をならせない。
これは致命的。

### 1/5 — Inutile si pas utilisable sur app dj

*2022-09-19, version 1.1.3*

Ne marche pas avec dj pro … pourquoi ?
Je viens de perdre 20 euro …:(

### 1/5 — Delusione

*2021-02-27, version 1.1.3*

Crasha spesso e non supporta il MIDI. Aggiornatela. Rendetela più stabile con Audiobus e simili e aggiungete la possibilità di mappare i parametri via MIDI.

### 1/5 — It was a great music remix app...

*2020-12-24*

But after no support for 4 years, seems unable to do basic things like even open music from itunes now. It would be a travesty to let it die from lack of support. Was a great app. Lets hope it receives some support.

### 1/5 — Update this!

*2020-08-28, version 1.1.3*

This does not work on the new 12.9 iPad Pro when trying to use in conjunction with the djm900 nexus 2! Way to drop the ball pioneer and not update your app. $2000 dollar mixer I thought could work with this and I gotta buy a second old iPad to use this? Oof

### 1/5 — Was für eine Abzocke!!

*2020-06-13, version 1.1.3*

20€ für eine Effekt App, die aber kein Input Signal nirgends empfängt und somit nur eine RMX-1000 ohne echte Nutzbarkeit

### 1/5 — Non funziona più non acquistatela

*2020-04-25, version 1.1.3*

Non funziona più non acquistatela

### 5/5 — Excelente

*2021-01-23, version 1.1.3*

Excellent application, works perfect on iPad 8 TH generation 2020 and in conjunction with djm750Mk2, you need to add a potentiometer or knob to adjust the volume of the effects console, update and take the suggestions into account.

Excelente aplicación, funciona perfecto en iPad 8 TH generación 2020 y en conjunto con djm750Mk2, hace falta que le agreguen un   Potenciometro o perilla donde ajustar el volumen de la consola de efectos

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2019-03-27, version 1.1.3*

It is the best app ever

### 5/5 — Ottima

*2019-03-22, version 1.1.3*

Ottima app che , collegata ai mixer Pioneer serie djm compatibili, emula alla perfezione la rmx-1000. Spettacolare

### 5/5 — Great fun with djm 450

*2017-08-03, version 1.1.3*

Great fun with djm 450 connected via standard lighting cable

### 5/5 — XY-PAD

*2016-11-05, version 1.1.3*

audio pasteで自作のワンショットも取り込みたい

### 5/5 — Wow, totally underrated.

*2016-05-21, version 1.1.1*

Very capable tool, located conveniently on my iPad Pro.  Considering this is a version of a real hardware device, I'm glad to have it useable with Inter-App Audio, mixing with various synths and drum machines.  Took me about 10 minutes to get familiarized, but then I was off making great sounding "remix" style sounds!

### 5/5 — MIDI Learn

*2016-04-20, version 1.1.1*

Lots of potential in this App for iPad musicians, Love it and would recommend it to any iOS musician.
 Pioneer development team head over to AudioBus forum and see what iOS musicians think about App, they all want midi learn. 
Please add in future update.
AU version Please

### 5/5 — Good

*2016-03-02, version 1.1.1*

Very good

### 5/5 — Terrific Effects

*2016-02-06, version 1.1.0*

I had never heard of this RMX-1000, so I had to give it a go.  I'm really digging it.  Like other reviewers has already said, it could use some MIDI mapping for more exacting control; but as it stands, I am really quite happy with it.  :-)

### 4/5 — Immer noch cool…

*2026-01-19, version 1.1.3*

Eine schöne Idee für alle, die nicht die Chance hatten, einen echten RMX 1000 zu erwerben.
Wäre super, wenn‘s nochmal ein Update für Midi gäbe!
