    Fantastic, BUT...
    One of the coolest things about the various Virsyn synthesizers is the arpeggiator. And this app has everything that makes the Virsyn arpeggiators as interesting as they are, especially the randomization. I could play around with this thing for hours. BUT... the worst thing about this app is that it’s really unfriendly as far as “playing with others”. Virsyn support, please, PLEASE, make this app an AUv3. Having the Arpeggist available to use in AUM would be a major improvement. Please consider. I would even be willing to pay for an IAP to add AUv3 capabilities. Show more

    Neat
    I haven’t delved into this as deep as it can go, so I’m probably not doing myself any favors by writing this now. The thing is, it’s so rare when an app is exactly what you’d hoped it was that I really feel compelled to write a little note of thanks. If you are like me, you had a keyboard - maybe several keyboards - at one time or another that had a rudimentary arpeggiator. They were quite popular and a fun way to come up with new, quirky synth or bass lines - or to create wonderful, sparkly “filler” noise for your tracks. But that keyboard broke. Or you sold it. Here you are, several years later, and you want an arpeggiator. You’ve gotten many many keyboards before and since, and none of them (gasp) have arpeggiators! What to do? Oh, I know! There has to be an app for that! And there are. Several thousand, it seemed to me. All of which might have been arpeggiators (because they have that in their descriptions) - but then again, they might not. Because all of them look like full-on DAWs at worst or some kind of space age bravo sierra that offers me a thousand ways to control my sounds THAT I DON’T WANT. Then there’s this. Apreggist. Is it an arpeggiator? Well the name certainly has it right. I’m glad they didn’t name it BUTTERSCOTCH or some other stupid thing. Thing is, it’s eight bucks. But then again, so’s everything in this category. So I bit. I’m happy to say that Arpeggist is, indeed, just what I needed - a rudimentary arpeggiator. And it is much more than that, but the “much more” part doesn’t get in the WAY of the arpeggiator. I was able to jump right in and use it like I remembered using my old keyboard based arpeggiators, but I found myself constantly going “oooh, what’s this do?” and being delighted with the results. So, thanks VirSyn! :D Show more

    Great for quick inspiration
    The randomization features make it easy to come up with new melodies, basslines, and chords. The latest version can sync to external MIDI clock as well as start/stop commands. However, it does't transmit clock or start/stop, which is disappointing. Add MIDI file export and the ability to transmit clock and this will be a 5 star app. Show more

    Needs another update ASAP
    The one time this app worked without crashing on iPad Air 2 it was fantastic! Wonderful arp, great randomization tools. Etc BUT after that, even after reinstalling IT CRASHES EVERY TIME I try and assign midi in and out. PLease update, as I love your apps and would give this one five stars if it just worked Put Show more

    If working properly..
    After update one: Crash bug when selecting midi out still exists; don't buy when StepPolyArp is out there. It does everything better except the randomizers, for which I will give VirSyn the edge. This doesn't take away from the quality of their other apps (for which I can only vouch for the great TeraSynth), but skip this. ------ Impulse bought to have a Midi out synth like the one in their fantastic Terasynth. However selecting any midi output from within the app crashes it. Including their own TeraSynth. Don't buy until updated. Show more

    Poor External ClockSync, Transport Stop/Start, MIDI controls
    ? it's just like the arpeggiator section for all of other Virsyn synths. Right now, it literally feels like one of their other synths that's been gutted with only the arp section remaining. It's a decent arpeggiator, but needs improvement with control and interoperability with other MIDI gear. ⚠️ ????? Unfortunately??, as far as I can tell, there's no apparent control for external ClockSyncing and no reliable way to trigger transport Stop/Play from other apps—so one must wonder, 'what's the point?' Musicians who like Virsyn instruments will probably not be not be disappointed ? when the devs do eventually release an update the problems I've mentioned, but for now this? 1.0 release has limited functionality.? If you have StepPolyArp by Laurent Colson, you probably do not need this unless you prefer the arpeggiator control interface of VirSyn's synths. dB??? Show more
