    Thanks for the most recent update!
    The new scrollable UI is far superior to what we had before. I haven’t had the chance to fully get dirty with this synth but it looks promising, is not too expensive and is AUV3, that’s mostly enough for me to spend a few bucks on an iOS synth. The little I’ve used it, I’ve enjoyed the sound too! Now that the controls are far better I will use it a lot more (I’m an iPhone user and the previous UI was a little too tiny to be conveniently set). It would be a blessing if we could also zoom in a little bit, enabling us to use the AUV3 in portrait mode on iPhone on apps such as AUM. This would be massive! A little heads up about a bug: turning a knob Downwards doesn’t seem to affect the UI Window however turning it upwards does and acts as a drag on the interface. Workaround: touch screen with another finger to keep screen position locked while changing knobs. Hopefully this little detail can be fixed? I can’t see a keyboard on the regular app, but I only use AUV3 so to me this is irrelevant (although it did use to have before if I recall correctly, dev it might be a good idea to not remove it from the standalone app (in case you did, I’m not sure)).

    Great new update
    Great sounding and fun synth. The scalable fullscreen UI and the new preset browser are definitely a big improvement. Thanks for the update! ?

    Needs patch select in DAW apps
    Hey the new updated version is quite good and I really appreciate the patches! I would really like to be able to select a patch in Nano Studio 2 with the standard patch change buttons and search functions. Is that coming? I imagine so, but thought I’d ask. Great work so far...it sounds excellent! Show more

    Sounds thick and analogy.
    As many have listed, this app does need some updates to really shine, but overall it’s a great early version and the developer seems very attentive to user needs. Update needs: GUI scaling or layout redesign for better size of editing parameters, especially on iPhone. Way too small to use (check Moog model 15 for how they do GUI scaling or IceGear’s Lagrange’s GUI side scrolling layout method. GUI color scheme change options ( want black with blue lines) GUI button fixes, ( sometimes unresponsive to touch changes) Perhaps a stronger open style font choice for logo and a more distinct app icon Settings panel with manual, audio buffer size, and or other useful things Built in presets and a way to import them Built in hideable midi keyboard in stand alone mode with midi learn Show more

    Pretty raw.
    It is a nice start and has great potential, but without effects it’s just too raw and dry to use.

    Blast from the past
    I gigged in the 80’s with an OBXa .. I ended burning out its power supply .. won’t have to worry about it with this one. It really sounds great if you have the programming chops. The real OBXa had the ability to layer two sounds which I definitely used .. with this one since its AUV3 you can layer as may sounds as you want by just opening up more instances .. couldn’t do that back then either :) Hope the developer hangs with this one and gives it presets (which the real ones have) and some white pinstripes over the blue background like the real ones :) Me likey this synth. Five stars for sure. Show more

    OB xa memories
    I’ve never written a review and had to here because this app instantly took me back to my own OB-xa I used in countless sessions here in Detroit in the ‘80’s. I never used presets then and would program from scratch. MUCH easier time pre-DX 7 and digital age. Fun too. Thanks for designing this. I think it’s fantastic. Show more

    Hmmm
    Waste off money: - No Presets - Wonky Controls - Very Limited PS: Great OS Version.... Catch up and make us smile?

    It is only a programer page without menu. Cannot save or do anything.
    Any of the pages that you see on the app store, none of them exist. The only page available in the software is the programmer page and without any menu. So you can’t really save or open any patches. Is an OB-X with chronic amnesia. There is no manual neither. It might be very usable but only a 25% of the software works. I wrote Jorge Reales and informed it, I wrote also Disco DSP that apparently is related to this product. Lets see what happen during the next week. I cannot give it more than 1 star in the conditions it is. Specially having so many apps in the market that are fully usable, stable and sound supper fat! Show more

    Almost there
    This app has some potential but needs a few things to take it to a 5 star app. 1st it needs some presets or a way to load presets. The desktop version allows you to load patches so please allow the app to do the same because there are patches out there that could be used. 2nd even though you can access a virtual keyboard via a Au host like GarageBand, it needs its own in standalone. And 3rd when loaded in GarageBand the app on my iPad is too small on the screen with the keyboard to be able to tweak the knobs in real time while playing instead of having to enlarge the app to edit then minimize it to play. I have an IPad Air. Make these changes and you will be in business. Thanks for the app! Show more

    Unfinished
    The UI in Au is all messed up and not usable... please update.
  • ichiro27, 06.06.2019
    Unfinished app
    Why did apple approved a unfinished app. The GUI is messed up in iPad Pro 10.5 (iOS 11). No virtual keyboard wow. The developer shouldn’t rushed an unfinished product
  • Smackulus, 03.06.2019
    Interface is jacked on iPad Pro
    The knobs don’t line up at all with the display yet. Hope my money was a decent investment in the future. Really not sure why this is in the store right now. Show more

    Bad impulse buy...
    Wow, this need a LOT of work. Guess I’ll revisit a few months from now.
