### 1/5 — Don’t buy this, buy tenor bass trombone instead

*2021-12-03*

So tenor bass trombone just means you have the accessibility of another octave. I sadly have both apps because they denied a refund after realizing this. There’s no difference in the timbre, you just get a crappier range with the tenor. The app is great but go with the bass tenor trombone and skip this cash grab

**Developer response:** All info and details are publicly available on our website and user manuals, including instruments range.
Timbre is slightly different, as in the real life.
Refuns are not under developers control, Apps are sold by Apple, not by us.

### 5/5 — Love the SWAM!

*2021-02-03*

This thing sounds great and once again is very expressive. So far I’ve only played it from the screen, but works surprisingly well even from there. Lots of options, very easy to adjust and program. Love the SWAM!
