Not Appearing in AUM iOS 14

Bought yesterday but can’t play today. Please update as this app appears very promising. Will update the review if you update too.

Response from developer

If you ever have this issue please just reboot your iPad. This isn't an issue with the app but sometimes AUv3's fail to register. A reboot forces it to be registered again.

A Lovely Start With Room For More Functionality

Love the idea of a variety of formants as most apps have such a limited number of options (such as the terrific Pipa app). Since this app does not generate any sounds on its own, it shapes the sounds it is fed. I’d love to see a 2-dimensional control pad (a la the Kaosselator from Korg or the GeoShred Pro app) which would give users a way to customize chosen formants while playing, sort of like a wah-wah pedal.

Response from developer

Thanks for the suggestion. I really like that idea and will look at the possabilities of adding something similar in a future version.

Not appearing as an AUv3 effect...

This effect does not appear in AUM or Cubasis 3 (I have not tested other hosts) in iOS ver.14. Please fix.
