User reviews

Very nice

Intuitive, meditative and flexible.

Simple yet very powerful!

The control over the sound is incredibly impressive and the manipulation of the tone is powerful. There are also great scale options but you can also choose the free or fretless mode which gives you the microtonal control. It's really quite amazing to play!

Sythnicity is like no other

A very musically advanced and fun instrument! The new tones are great and very usable, whether in recording or instantly expressive play.
Lowengard apps are some of the coolest in the store. Dig?

Terrible

Downloaded played deleted! One of a Very few apps I wish I had not wasted the money on. The only sound it comes with is a lame synth preset. Just plain Dumb!

Would not even be worth your time if it was free!!!!!

Having a blast with it.

Am having a blast playing with it and now my commutes have a new aural aspect to them. Instead of listening to others music or NPR podcasts I can make polyphonic soundscapes, while riding the bus or train...very cool! Also, ran it through a Digitech™ Whammy guitar pedal for some monster pitch bends....suh-weet.
