Legend Editor allows real-time adjustment and storage of all the sound generation parameters and effects of the Legend series instruments. In addition to this, it is possible to load other models of electromechanical organs. Legend Editor comes with a clear and simple user interface, adaptable to any screen resolution. In addition to adjusting and storing the parameters in the instrument, the application also allows you to save them in your own device, and to reload them if necessary in an easy and fast way. Specifically, Legend Editor allows you to: - Adjust the signal level of each individual drawbar; - Adjust the volume of the pedalboard and the clicks of the keyboard keys individually by type; - Adjust the operating parameters of the vibrato and chorus; - Select the distortion model; - Adjust the operating and shooting parameters of the two Rotary effects; - Adjust the physical and acoustic characteristics of the two Reverb effects; - Set the functions otherwise adjustable from the keyboard for the Legend Classic, Legend, Legend Live, and Legend Solo models. - Load other organ models instead of the ones currently stored in the instrument. - Save all the above parameters and reload them to the instrument if necessary. How it works: - Connect your device to the Legend organ by a USB cable and the Camera Connection Kit. - Press the [CONNECT] button in the app to connect to the organ. - Select the section of the parameters you want to change from the left panel of the app. - Drag the parameter slider to modify the value. - Press the [STORE] button in the app to permanently save the changes to the organ.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Legend Editor at none against MXBus's 1. Legend Editor also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.2) and iOS requirement (9.2 vs 15.6). MXBus's advantage is ratings volume (120 vs 2) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
