Appmuse

It’s sad to see this app neglected. Requests: an appropriate font for expressions, aspect ratio support for newer devices, a better tutorial for those new to the app.

Do this app the justice it deserves. You have a great 5 star app that just needs some polishing. It’s a work of art.

The tutorial is so terrible and there is no way to tell what the actual result is supposed to be .another poorley designed menu on top of menu nightmare.boring and fidgetey.i just bought a real modular and it just keeps giving ,this is a joke i will just forget about modular synths on the ipad .and whats on offer sounds cheap and horrible..too bad. A total waste of time and money ...peace christo Show more

Analogkit. This is a pretty big deal. Modular synthesists, electronics tinkerers, educators, students of electronic sound, instrument designers, circuit benders, programming-curious music folk, and noise musicians have a great environment here for exploring musical gadgetry, and being able to make music once the tinkering is done. A lot of the fun of modular synths is playing with the knobs, once a patch is together. This one of the main reasons AnalogKit is working out here: the container system for combining modules together, and choosing what is visible, makes it so you can hide all of the spaghetti of cables and utility, behind a front panel, once you're ready to play. It also makes reusing modules you make easy, so you don't have to spend time headscratching and remaking something you may have done in another project. I read the developers were using their beta version of the app to perform with, which shows in the UI, and the playability of the app.. As well as the container system, the Swap Meet, the online community for sharing modules and projects directly within the app, plays a large part in the current and future potential for the app. Already there are lots of outlandish, fun creations to try out ("the Mumbler", "Plucked Ostrich"), as well as utilities that I couldn't build, like a triggering oscilloscope, and phaser pedal, etc... Casual users, without modular synthesis knowledge, can download projects and play music with them, and if they're curious, also look inside to see how they're made, or even with no curiosity, be able to reuse modules and parts for their projects, without needing to understand how they were built, on a lower level. There are some bugs, but the developers are responsive and enthusiastic about fixing them and fine tuning. Their plethora of shared projects are really cool, too, like the lofi video games and gibberish talking generator. Highly recommended! Apps like this are pushing the boundaries of the tablet as an outrageous music making thingy. Show more

Very cool app. The only issue I have is that it keeps crashing on start up after closing out. I keep having to delete and download every time and then sign back in to see my backed up devices. Show more

The addition of virtual midi, the ability to group components into modules, Audiobus support, and a place to share module creations make this a very useful app. Being able to use midi learn to control knobs allows you to use existing hardware or midi apps for control. Can get some really nice sounds going with the demo modules and tutorials. Show more

If you're looking for a software modular for iPad, this is it. There's nothing "semi" about it, and it's surprisingly deep. It sticks to old-school sounds and concepts, but in a way, that makes it more useful for learning (you can drill all the way down to the equations). Interesting that this appears a day after Reaktor 6 drops. It's a good time to be into virtual patch cables! Docs are very thin (this will be of no use to you if you know nothing about subtractive synthesis), but if you're already a modular fan, you'll have a ball right away. The interface is very well thought out, and there's a "swap meet" facility so people can share patches. Don't know if I'll make an album with it, but I can't put it down. Show more

The developer is full-on on the case, (midi and iOS issues sorted pending Apple review) and this synth/fx playground/toolbox is an insane beast, in the best most accessible sense. Amazing 1.0 Show more

This app is amazing. I bought this app because it works so well with audiobus. Days of in app effects purchases are in my mind a thing of the past. It's like max for live but for the iPad. Definitely a must have for anyone who uses the iPad for music production. I would write more but then I would have less time to use this app. Show more

I just purchased and installed this and unfortunately cannot use it. It crashes on my iPad2 running IOS 7.
