Cool app

Nice work on this app

A novelty

The Music Remixer and AN2015 are fantastic but without Bluetooth speaker support this app just collects dust.

The AN2015 is a Fantastic sounding synth engine , but .....

Yes it’s free , but no landscape mode .

PWM on all oscillator shapes , but no way to modulate them .

MIDI in but no AuV3 .

The AN2015 needs these even if it’s an IAP or broken out as a separate app paid app . It’s a great sounding engine don’t let it go to waste Yamaha !

It would be a 5 star for me if it weren’t for the way it’s packaged with these short comings .

Midi keyboard not working

I can no longer use this app with a Bluetooth connection (using the UD-BT01) to a midi keyboard. I thought it was because the app now requires iOS 13 as a minimum, but the Bluetooth midi keyboard connection to my wife’s iPhone X does not work either. You can play the app on the iPhone with the screen keyboard but not with a midi keyboard connected via Bluetooth.

?!?!?

What is that?!?!?
A book?
An music app?
I guess the app is not working properly on my device because some say here that this is a music app they use. Messy, unclear, just wrong....
