### 5/5 — Wow. A must

*2022-10-20, version 10.2*

I’m a a sub novice to the world of pipes & aside from some keyboard patches, have never played one, but as a sample library zealot I understand quality & this is it. I’ve started with the demo version & am blown away. I will certainly be purchasing full organs in time for the holidays. This app is a must if you’re interested in a more authentic pipe experience, which, though I’m admittedly no expert, I can comprehend when something feels natural.

### 5/5 — Fantastic organ sounds and works perfectly

*2022-01-28, version 10.2*

This app is a rare example of a product that works well, but still is not expensive,  reflects the passion of the developer and personal  attention to detail and quality. The sounds are very realistic and top notch, very satisfying for those who love the pipe organ sound. 5 stars for the quality and for being such good value for money.

### 5/5 — delightful organ

*2020-10-03, version 9.1*

Truly deilghtful to playwith beautifully voiced stops it  may be only 1 manual and pedal but a true gem and thank for all the hard work in engineering this

### 5/5 — Even Better Now

*2020-04-03, version 9.0*

This is one of the most underrated apps. The tones and richness are extraordinary. I’ve used it for bass in addition to using it as an organ. It doesn’t sound as distinctively ‘churchy’ as Markus Sigg’s other organs; along with MenzelOrgan, it’s the one I use most.

### 5/5 — Thank You

*2019-01-27, version 8.7*

This is amazing! Great work. All your apps are excellent.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2018-10-01, version 8.7*

Nothing short of brilliant! The sounds, the quality, the attention to detail, the simplicity of use.. I could go on and on. Not seen anything which compares to it on the App Store. Please continue to make more of the same 😄

### 5/5 — Excellent!

*2017-08-10, version 8.5*

Loved this app! Works well with my MIDI keyboard.

### 5/5 — Great virtual instrument

*2016-09-09, version 8.4*

A free app that turns any usb-midi keyboard into a virtual pipe organ with complete control over stops. All you need is a few cables. This is the most economical way to get a digital pipe organ and is a great example of why the iPhone should always have a headphone jack.

### 5/5 — This is a top notch Church Organ

*2016-06-26, version 8.4*

Strand sounds fantastic with reverbs that make you feel like you're actually in a huge church.

### 5/5 — A Classical Organ App For Real Organists

*2016-05-24, version 8.3*

Lots of sampling and programming work went into this app to make it sound great with external amplification, and connect to MIDI keyboards for real-life music making.  Yay Markus Sigg!

### 5/5 — Awesome Organ Tone

*2015-02-01, version 7.0*

As a life-long, internationally-performing organist, the sound from this ‘organ’ is astonishingly good, even from the original iPad. Now on an iPad Air and iPhone 6+ it just gets better.

### 5/5 — This is cool!

*2015-01-02, version 7.0*

I will say that this app is very unique and being a fan of classical organ music...this is a must! Also I  like the fact that it is a bit of interesting history as well! It's a cool app!

### 5/5 — Hi

### 1/5 — Bad attitude

*2017-08-10, version 8.5*

Getting a stroppy public reply from the developer for not liking aspects of his app including its price, has only annoyed me more. Reviews are for expressing opinions on products in a commercial market place. Expressing these views is not in any way misuse, but honesty. Any time I don't like a price, or any other aspect of an app I will say so.

### 1/5 — Inherently terrible

*2016-06-23, version 8.3*

TL;DR: Terrible app, $2 to use a basic function.

I shouldn't have to spend $2 in order to use the basic function of playing the keys manually. Terrible idea guys, terrible. I was looking for a good app to play around with, and you killed it. If you want me to spend $2 to play the keys manually then don't make the app free. This app is an abomination.

### 1/5 — Arrangement of demo song.

*2015-07-11, version 8.0*

Why did you change the bass line of the Passepied demo song?
I want the old one back! 😥

### 1/5 — RUBBISH

*2014-06-17, version 6.0*

To play the organ you have to buy something else !!

### 1/5 — NO SOUND

*2013-09-22, version 5.0*

LAME

### 3/5 — The organ.

*2025-04-26, version 11.2*

The organ has a snare drum, a triangle, a bass drum, and a blower.

### 4/5 — Cool but needs work

*2025-01-21, version 11.2*

It’s great but you should add more stops and you should add pedals too

### 4/5 — Gorgeous

*2021-12-21, version 10.0*

Really nice sounds and easy to use. But I’m a little bit confused as to why an image of a horn keeps popping up in the middle when I play chords making it difficult to use the on screen keyboard

### 4/5 — Demos

*2020-04-05, version 9.0*

Since the update the demo tunes are not working?

Also the stops do make a noise when selecting them.

### 5/5 — A favor

*2024-09-09, version 11.2*

Hey can you please add the organ song Gigue Fugue by Johann S Bach thank you👍

### 5/5 — Carillon Stop is the Bomb

*2024-08-31, version 11.2*

I love this organ since the carillon stop was included.  There are some songs that it transforms. I used to play duets with my bro who played Qanun Zither.  Everytime I play this organ, I reminisce on that.  All the song arrangements I had developed with my bro are brought back thru this instrument.  It’s so incredible.  Besides that, it has lovely reverb and pipe organ drama. I have the desk top version too, but I like having the plug and play portability because they don’t have Hauptwerk nor Grand Orgue for iPad.  But this organ can be played in GO desktop version. Same quality on iPhone iPad as Desktop.  Really beautiful.

### 5/5 — Phenomenal

*2024-08-10, version 11.2*

This app is amazing! I have a digital keyboard with some decent organ sounds on it, but I was interested in exploring MIDI Organ interfaces without going with something huge like Hauptwerk. 
This is perfect.

### 5/5 — Very good sound

*2023-12-13, version 11.2*

I wish there would be a AUv3 Version to be able to use as instrument in Logic Pro for iPad or Logic Pro mac.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-09-11, version 11.1*

This app always surprises me when I come back to it. Really pure.

### 5/5 — Love the app!

*2023-07-19, version 11.1*

Downloaded it years ago and it just gets better. Such a useful thing when you need good organ sound on the fly with just a MIDI keyboard and some speakers.

### 5/5 — Beautiful sound!

*2023-05-29, version 11.0*

A real treat. Lovely sound - not huge but really beautiful. Unfortunately the trumpet sounds on the organ are out of tune but the app works brilliantly. Well worth trying out. Update to my post - I mentioned that the trumpet sounds on the organ are out of tune. If you go into settings, then “sounds”, then “temperament” and click on “pipe wise” it corrects the problem. So to conclude - one very happy customer. I’m very impressed with this guy’s work!

### 5/5 — I’m sorry

*2023-03-28, version 10.2*

I said that it’s 👍

### 5/5 — Best app.

*2023-02-02, version 10.2*

Thank you for creating this wonderful app. Many blessings to you.

### 5/5 — This app is great!

*2023-01-10, version 10.2*

This app provides a good variety of stops for a free sound. The combinations with them are endless and can sound really impressive. My favorite feature is actually the temperments and pitch adjusting, I can detune this app to run with their other free app and get a celeste sound by going up 10¢. Great features and sounds and I will definitely purchase the full package.
