Functional, but...

Source Audio would sell a lot more of these if they did a tutorial for guitar players on how to program synthesizers. The C4 is an amazing synthesizer, but the default sounds are unremarkable and the sounds online aren't very musical. Were it not for the bass player who did a decent demo on programming, I would have sold my C4. Now I hold onto hope that I can learn to program well enough to craft some good sounds--because they are definitely in there.

Good app and great pedals

Good app but needs some optimisation improvements

もしかして使えない?

EQ2を購入しましたが、何をどうやっても設定が反映されません。
前のバージョンでは反映出来ていたのに、、、

Iphone 12 bug

Won’t connect to pedal even at max volume tells me to increase volume. Cool app just needs work

No connection

Ich Krieg mit meinem iPhone 11 (18.7.1) keine Verbindung zum Ultra Wave Bass ….

Battery killer

This app kills my battery AND turns my phone into a boiling hot lava bar. App probably needs optimization to fix the issue. Running an older device (12 mini), but have not encountered this issue with any other app. It’s like the processor is running at max power constantly.

Disappointing

Source Audio makes innovative and versatile pedals. The old version of Neuro was clunky but effective. The new Neuro is still really rough. The GUI is harder to use, helpful graphics are missing, resolution of displayed values lost precision, there are quite a few other issues that remain unresolved. I miss the old Neuro.

Disappointing

Source Audio makes innovative and versatile pedals. The old version of Neuro was clunky but very effective. The new Neuro is a mess. The GUI is harder to use, they got rid of useful visual aids, resolution of values is less than half of what it was, there are many issues that have been reported but remain unresolved. I hate this new version and miss the old one.

Bring Back the Old Neuro!

This revamp continues to be a disaster. There’s an apparent lack of attention to details. So many aspects of editing don’t work at all or barely. The old app is way better. I miss the horizontal sliders and full 8-bit resolution. Now most level settings don’t have a proper zero, and it continues to be a bag of bugs. For iOS the older better editor is no longer available.

Latest update broke it on my iPad

I have used Neuro for a few years and generally like it for deeper tweaks into my SA Collider Rev/Delay.
I think as expecting great things from version 3, but now it “opens” and immediately shuts down.

I am running the latest iPadOS on a relatively recent (pre M-silicon processors) iPad with plenty of memory…and everything else turned off. Doesn’t matter if I am attached to my Collider or not.

No idea why it doesn’t work

Can’t seem to make it work. The app will not let me create an account. Can’t find a problem on my end, so it must be them. Too bad.

Neuro 3

Just an update on my previous review that the app update is well-received and appreciated. Bravo! Some Bluetooth connectivity issues remain but this could be on my end ie phone, Bluetooth receiver.

Bring Back the Old Neuro!

This revamp has been a major disappointment. So many aspects of editing don’t work at all or barely. The old app is way better. I miss the horizontal sliders and full 8-bit resolution. Now most level settings don’t have a proper zero, and it continues to be a bag of bugs. Worst of all the previous (better) non-beta version is gone for iOS. Please bring it back!!

Don’t know what the other reviews are about

I solely use the c4 synth pedal and had no issues what so ever except have to press the burn button a couple of times. Maybe they fixed the issues?

Bring Back the Old Neuro!

I really like Source Audio’s pedals. This forced beta version has been disappointing. I miss the horizontal sliders and full 8-bit resolution. Now most level settings don’t have a proper zero, and it continues to be a bag of bugs. Worst of all the previous (better) non-beta version is gone for iOS. Please bring it back!!

IOS limited functions on EQ2

Limited functions on EQ2… no Q factor adjustment. Can’t see what centre freq you have set. Can’t set up user account.. simply stalls. Pretty well useless. Desktop app works well.. but who lugs laptops around these days.

Better than nothing

I don’t have access to a computer that I can download software to so I can’t use the desktop editor, which is probably superior because it connects to the pedal via USB.

Since I don’t have that option, the only way I can tap into my True Spring pedal’s extra reverb algorithms is with this Neuro 3 mobile app, which connects through a special cable that comes with the pedal. (It has a 1/4 inch jack that plugs into the pedal and an 1/8 inch jack that plugs into the headphone jack of your phone. I have an iPhone SE, so I had to use a lightning adapter. My guess is that the app sends a one-way code of audio pulses through this cable to the pedal…)

My first experience trying to use the app was so frustrating that I nearly sold the pedal. A few days later I gave it another shot when I had more time and patience to problem-solve and systematically try to upload/“burn” presets to the pedal. I’m not the most technologically advanced person, but I’m not dumb either— this app’s interface is not intuitive and will require some patience to figure out.

That said, with a lot of trial and error, I did ultimately figure out how to upload 3 presets to use in preset mode.

The sounds I get out of this pedal are absolutely beautiful. Please remember, this is a review of the app, and NOT a review of the pedal itself.

Is the app poorly designed? Yes, but I’m glad SOMETHING exists (besides the desktop editor) so that I can unlock the potential of the pedal.

I don’t know anything about app/software design, but a lot phones don’t have headphone jacks anymore. Maybe the next app could use a USB connection?

Stuck on sign in screen

Trying to create an account freezes the app. No error message. Very frustrating
