### 5/5 — One of my Favorite iOS Audio Plugins! 👍👍

*2019-11-14*

This plugin simply delivers! It does exactly what it says, and at < 12 MB it has a very tiny footprint, yet it has a deep & robust sound! I have not experienced any crashing, and the app has been super-stable in both Audiobus 3 and several DAWs (GarageBand, Cubasis, and Auria Pro to name a few). It’s very lightweight and does not tax the CPU on my 10.5” iPad Pro at all. If you’re looking for a “bit-crushing” effect with a genuine nostalgic feel than this is it. Very little gain is needed to get a very characteristic sound that will work with a wide medley of genres. I still ‘play around’ with the controls to find just the right sound, but it requires minimal tweaking. My only gripe with the developer is that they haven’t released more high quality plugins!! YES, I’M STILL WAITING!! I wouldn’t hesitate on purchasing this tool again, and if you’re looking for that genuine Akai Professional S950 sound, well, you’ve come to the right place! This is probably in my top 5 favorite plugins on the iPad (where I have literally dozens of premium plugins to choose from), and is definitely a “go to” plugin. I don’t comment on a lot of apps anymore, but absolutely wanted to share my thoughts. This is like a “magic dipping-sauce” for your sound! It’s no doubt a”5-star” app! BTW, DID I MENTION THAT I’M STILL WAITING ON THE DEVELOPER TO RELEASE MORE GREAT PLUGINS LIKE YESTERDAY?!

### 5/5 — Totally recommended

*2019-08-15*

I use RX950 in TwistedWave to filter the high end of samples and it’s brilliant for that.It’s an awesome inexpensive little app that packs a lot of power!

### 5/5 — 堀さん

*2019-03-31*

凄く良いです。12bitサンプラーの感じが出ています。AUで2段掛けすると更に素晴らしい

### 5/5 — Update!

*2019-01-08*

Hope this works my fav plug perhaps midi learn next?

### 5/5 — Great effect

*2018-12-29*

5 star don’t come easy from me but I have to say this effect is what I currently needed. It does exactly what it says it does.

### 5/5 — Does as advertised

*2018-11-02*

Does what it says it does and does what it says it does well.  Use in AUM or apeMatrix to give a Smokey vintage color to your layers.

### 4/5 — Brilliant brilliance

*2018-09-07*

This is a great AUv3 unit which can brighten up your track or entire mix.
One small issue is the size, the controls are small with my eyesight not being great I do have some difficulty reading the dB reading, if this could be enlarged it would be amazing.
I hope this could get some kind of update to make it bigger.
I would still recommend this.

### 5/5 — Beautiful thing

*2018-08-19, version 1.1.1*

But where the hell is the bypass button?

### 4/5 — 12bit

*2018-07-18, version 1.1.1*

Bonne émulation du s950 . Quelques bugs avec Aum et AudioShare le son sort uniquement en mono . Le signal clip aussi pas mal même sans pousser le gain.

### 5/5 — Great effect

*2018-07-10*

No idea if this really sounds like a S950 but I do know that anything I put through this effect comes out sounding better. Great for adding crunch to drums and air/presence to synth parts. Highly recommended.

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing!

*2021-10-08*

I saw the reviews and thought it sounded like a good idea to get it but it keeps crashing my daw whenever I try to put it on a track! Hope this can get fixed.

### 1/5 — Doesnt work.

*2020-06-06, version 1.1.6*

The sound only comes out from one side of the headphone...

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2019-07-28*

Doesn’t work just cuts off the sound completely in whatever track you apply it to. If it was possible to give no stars I would have. Complete waste of money.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2019-01-09*

Sound only comes in on left channel. Have deleted and downloaded numerous times. No response from developer. Best avoided.

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2018-09-21*

Great plugin but constantly crashes in IOS

### 2/5 — Won’t connect?

*2018-12-30*

Gets an error on iPhone 8 that the app couldn’t connect audio to the host

### 3/5 — Audiobus ?

*2024-02-17, version 1.1.6*

Sounds great but doesnt work with Audiobus

### 3/5 — no not impressive at all

*2023-08-01*

old akai filters can totally change the character to a sound particularly with bass tones this offers none of that, make a basic low pass filter that sounds like it comes for free with any daw and call it a 950 filter🥱yawn

### 3/5 — Phantom distortion?

*2020-09-24*

Was loving this plugin esp. for the “brilliance’ knob - but as of currently, it appears if I put it on say a vocal track and set things for what would typically be ‘clarity’ -> turning it off creates strange artifacts that persist even after removing it from the track, until I restart Cubasis.

### 4/5 — Great sounds, some fixes needed!

*2020-02-01, version 1.1.6*

Sounds good, but not too close to my S950. Works only in mono (left channel) with iMPC Pro2 app. Mix/wet/bypass functionality would be great!

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — 最高

*2025-12-12*

iosにはこういうアプリあまりないので、とっても貴重です。
aumと使いましたが、良かったです。

### 5/5 — excellent with certain synths

*2023-08-29, version 1.1.6*

Absolutely remarkable with Animoog/Z, more pedestrian with other synths i've tried (Virsyn  range for exemple).

### 5/5 — Godsend!

*2023-06-12*

If you’re working in audio production and not using this heavenly blessing of an app, it’d be a crime, yes, a crime! Just use this once to see sophistication being materialised before your very eyes! Thank you in inphoniks! We love you!

### 5/5 — Für alle Fälle

*2022-11-24*

Für mich ist dies ein Werkzeug das in meinem Kasten nicht mehr fehlen darf. Eigentlich auf jedem Kanal bei mir zu finden, manchmal sogar 2x. Ich leibe dieses weiße Rauschen wenn mehrere in einem Projekt sind.

### 5/5 — Does what is says on the tin.

*2021-12-05*

Close emulation of the original. Perfect on drums, taking off the highs with the filter.
To those that say it only works in mono, did you try toggling the mono switch?
When lit the sound will be in mono. Turn it off and your back to stereo.
SIMPLE NO FRILLS and gets the job done and it this price you can’t go wrong.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2020-09-10*

It’s subtle, it’s niche, and it does exactly what it says. Some samples just sit better in a mix when they get degraded in a really specific way.

### 5/5 — Top of the bottoms

*2020-06-19*

No idea when or why I bought this because I had no idea what it did so forgot about it for months.  Then I found it, watched a few videos, duly applied it to drums and bass and twiddled the first two knobs until it slowly dissolved my kidney stones.  Top marks for that.  I try it on everything now, even when I know it probably won’t work.  Why not?   There are lots of bass notes on a piano...

### 5/5 — Simple and useful

*2020-04-26*

Great plug. Used it for drums and it adds so much lovely punch and grit across the spectrum. Can’t wait to try it on more mixes!

### 5/5 — Yep, I agree with the previous review.

*2020-02-15*

I use this on pretty much every track I create now, especially for guitars but it can be used on anything really. It is simple and it does what it should do, it also does it very well! 

My only complaint:
Poor midi mapping support; there’s no way of mapping the already few knobs available to actual knobs, or midi CC or anything. 

Please dev, consider adding this. This app is amazing! 

Thank you Dev!

### 5/5 — Sounds good

*2019-11-18*

Auv3 on daw mix, simple use
