### 5/5 — Superb… simple but effective

*2024-06-15, version 1.2.2*

This is a really useful app for all sorts of music.
Loaded into AUM with some interesting effects, delays, reverbs, filters etc and used it to create random soundscapes in ambient and Dub tracks. Great thing also is that Toytone allows you to tweak the parameters and save your own presets.
Great little extra sound source to have in the folder.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2021-09-05, version 1.2.2*

Instant gratification, especially with that random button.
Even after all these years and other tools available I still go back to Toytone at times.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2021-01-20, version 1.2.2*

👍

### 5/5 — 玩具っぽい（良い意味で）

*2017-10-22, version 1.2.2*

ランダマイズで8bitライクなSEが奏でられる、素晴らしいアプリ。
エフェクトがあれば尚良いとは思いますが、パラメータもシンプルで解りやすいし、
こういうコンセプトは大好きです。

### 5/5 — センスがいい

*2017-05-12, version 1.2.2*

Iphoneに適したインターフェースになってると思いました。

### 5/5 — Awesome Synth!

*2017-02-03, version 1.2.2*

Excellent pad-presets UI and I love the Random button as well - both serve as an excellent starting point for surprisingly varied sound design possibilities. Thumbs up!

### 5/5 — レスポンスが良い

*2016-08-22, version 1.2.2*

とても楽しめる音系アプリです。
このテのアプリはレスポンスが良くないのが多いですがこのアプリはとても気持ちよく反応してくれます。
ノブの調整が一定の法則性が無いようで、波形等の組合せでノブの役割も変わってきてる感じがするので、作りたいと思う音は作りづらいかも。けど、それだけ沢山遊べそうですが。

### 5/5 — Wow, surprise

*2016-03-30, version 1.2.1*

What a cool app!  Mucho fun here. Thank you!
Sounds great!

### 5/5 — I love this little gem and want to use it with audio buss please!

*2016-02-03, version 1.2.0*

So fun I get lost using its harmonically rich and simple interface. ....great for live use too!peace Christo ps PLEASE give this audio buss ! It's worthy of at least that for people like me who design and need simple tools I can record as audio to my fave apps!

### 5/5 — 楽しい！
