    Another broken app (yawn)
    Does not work in AUM. Virtual MIDI cannot find instruments when loaded as IAA. Workaround before I delete? Its not a good sign when the forum web page brings up an error. Show more

    The iPad Classic
    I’ve used Orphion since the beginning on an original iPad. It’s still great!

    Amazing piece of iPad gear . . .
    Bastus Trump built this years ago. As a musician Orphion is as valuable to me owning a set of redwood marimbas. It's an amazing piece of equipment in my arsenal. It helps me make meditational pieces. At this point the program is totally customizable. I love it. Spend some time with it -- you will love it too . . . Show more

    Love using this app. It brings a new and fresh idea to my tracks when producing. I wish more additional sounds would be added.

    Amazing, Great for Real Drum Sequencing
    Extremely expressive, responsive, and a great use of touch technology! WISH LIST: More velocity increments Set up export to Files, email, etc.

    A true original musical instrument and experience!
    I have been a fan of Orphion since it’s arrival. A number of years ago, I was interested in running my iPad through the volume pedal and into an amplifier, so I could create volume swells. At the time there was no mono option, Which made this technique that is promising. I reached out to the developer, and asked about a feature he promptly responded. Said it was a good idea. And then, life happens, and things fall to the side. FlashForward, last week, after years of working with an iPad 3, I got a new pro.I remember this app, download it, and much to my surprise and glee, was a mono option. Bravo! Show more

    Very Cool
    Simple and quite unique in character. Very musical! This is why I love iPad so much. Because of apps like this, the versatility of an iPad really shine! Half the time I just playing the thing, Thanks. Only bad thing so far is the the thing stops playing audio once I close my iPad and has to be restarted even though I have sleep disabled? A minor thing though but should be fixed. Show more

    iPad 10,5” is a no go
    Lovely instrument, very expressive the way it handles touch gestures when playing. Unfortunately, even after the iOS 11 update, this app isn’t working properly on the newer 10,5” iPads as large parts of the playing areas are outside the screen. Show more

    No longer being supported, do not buy
    This app doesn’t work in iOS11 and the link to support no longer works. It looks like this app is not being supported any more. When I try to use the app the orientation is stuck and I can’t access the menu or the editing feature, which was in in app purchase. Was one of my favorite apps, totally useless now. Show more

    Absolutely love it!
    Couple of times per year I spend several hours almost randomly playing orphion just for myself

    Happy to install again!
    Jacob Haq reminded me why I love this app!

    Sounds awesome
    Unique sounds intuitive to your fingers in such a cool way. The vibrato features are tight.

    Nothing Like It
    I returned to Orphion again after not having played it in a while, because being able to put the pads exactly where I want them, triggering the exact notes I want, with whatever synth voice I choose (through virtual MIDI) is just sweet. I kept seeing this in the App Store but passed it by, because I didn't think it was the kind of app I would like. I was completely wrong. While almost every musical app out there provides a tiny keyboard or set of pads, Orphion provides pad layouts that are natural and ergonomic. The creator of Orphion noticed something the others seem to have missed – with a touchscreen, we're not limited to a single input layout. Show more

    Awesome app & works Great !
    Love this app !!! Especially for using MIDI to play outboard gear ... Highly inspiring ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️??
  • polarpaul, 29.08.2015
    Broken
    The app closes and immediately crashes even after being reinstalled. Hopefully the developer will fix this ASAP.

    I Love This App
    I love Orphion, it lets you define your own instrument layout and assign pitch to each area. Plus it detects hard and light touches and does something between the hit areas I haven't figured out, but which adds to the variety of sounds you can get from this. It also has something that might be a feature or a bug, but when you play a lot of notes fast you can get unexpected harmonics and ringing. I suspect it is intentional, but no matter, I love it. I don't know of any other app quite like it. Show more

    Orphion is one of the most inspiring apps in iOS
    and I don’t take making that statement lightly. Orphion is as inspiring as Samplr it’s that good. It’s one of the apps i can count on half of one hand that keep iOS an viable and invaluable music platform for me. It’s so simple, nothing gets in the way of you connecting with Orphions sound or whatever you are controlling but for me I love orphions sound. Something about it resonates deep within when I use it all you have to do is try it and you’ll see what I’m talking about. It makes writing music effortless as it streams inspiration and keeps you in that ‘zone’ at all times. I’m obviously not very good at articulating what I’m trying to say through the view finder of a little review box but suffice it to say that I love this app and can only recommend it to you over and over again!

    Love it
    Really fun to experiment with. This is the way to do an iPad instrument...I love that they created something totally unique vs trying to simulate some "real" instrument.

    So fun app
    The app is very fun. My kid loves to play with it.
