    Why not let us unlock it!?!?
    Please allow unlock without going miles to another store. They might not let me do the unlock anyway so please allow unlock without jumping thru hoops??? Thank you Yamaha

    Crashes
    Love it as a stand-alone instrument, but the app crashes while loading combinations with mx49 keyboard!

    Crashes
    Sounds great but certain preset menus are completely useless as they crash the app

    Really like a lot, but...
    Once I updated my iPad to 14, the “Combined Sounds” would no longer read from my MX88. Also, it would be useful to have a separate volume control for the drums. Please fix. Otherwise, it replicates the sounds of my DX100, B200, and TG33 very nicely with the extra plus of effects and quick mods. Show more

    Great fm synth app but with one disappointing limitation
    Successfully unlocked this on a MX88BK (in-store) and mostly love the capabilities of this FM sound module/app. Works nicely and can create and save new 4 operator FM patches just fine. The only real limitation is with the LFO. While it is possible to use the LFO on each operator separately, there is no LFO delay parameter like on a real dx100 or tx81z, etc.. This is a serious (and annoying) limitation. The only way to “delay” the LFO is to use each operator’s envelope params by setting a slow attack. For example, if you want a delayed vibrato (like on a flute or sax patch) this can be accomplished easily if there was a LFO delay parameter(like on a real FM synth). But with this app no can do. Please fix this Yamaha. I know you won’t because you don’t really care but it’s worth a try to ask. I guess you get what you pay for. Lol. Show more

    Disappointed
    Disappointed to find my original MX49, no letters following, isn’t good enough to unlock this.

    I love the app but
    This app should d be able to be used as a plugin also I'm not felling the locked sound. I'm willing to purchase in app sounds but without the keyboard.

    Wonderful, flexible, intuitive little synth.
    Great sound with lots of great presets to use as starting points. Very flexible and easy to use. Definitely recommend if you own a compatible Yamaha product!!

    Heavy use with varying degrees of success
    I use this app to live record into GarageBand, and it comes in handy for making sound effects. However, just recently I opened the app to discover that the instruments suddenly stop working if you turn off both effect filters in the EFX/EQ module. I used to be able to leave the instruments completely dry so that I could hear the raw sound accurately and make precise adjustments. Now, the program disables instruments completely if the effects are turned off, or even if they’re set to “thru.” I even reinstalled the app and encountered the same problem. Pleas fix this rather serious obstacle. Show more

    Sounds great, but needs updates
    I really like the sounds of the emulation, but it is quite cpu heavy, and audio units share the same patch regardless of the host. Please fix, Yamaha

    Deceptive!!!
    You need access to an antiquated discontinued keyboard to unlock the full version of the app total failure!!!!!!
  • futureicon, 14.01.2019
    10 Sounds
    You basically get 10 presets and the rest are locked. Garbage.
  • Bloobeary, 08.05.2018
    An ad disguised as an app
    Seems like it could have been a decent piece of kit, but it requires you to buy a $800 keyboard to get it out of demo mode. Even free, it’s a bit of a ripoff, because ha ha, they got credit for a download out of you. Way to be a bunch of cheap, creepy tightwads, guys. Show more

    I have an MX49 and it doesn’t unlock on iPhone X!!
    I agree with the folks that are annoyed that you require an MX to unlock this app. I have an MX49BK and I can’t get it to unlock the app on iPhoneX! It unlocks on my iPad Pro 9.7” but after a while it tells me that the iPad hardware is not compatible when connected to the MX. So I can use the iPad standalone with all the features but it’s nice to be able to select voices and features directly from the iPad and play them on the MX. Either charge something to unlock the full version or just unlock it regardless of whether you own an MX or not. I also own a Montage 7 (FANTASTIC! by the way) and got the MX to take with me when I travel. Show more

    Listed as free but...
    ...very limited and not usable. It can only be used with full functionality when connected to a Yamaha keyboard. I guess Yamaha conveniently forgot to mention that...

    Fm Essential Unlock
    New iPad Pro, latest update, spent over an hour @ Guitar Center (10 mi. drive), with several different MX models, trying to unlock FM Essential. Incompatible USB Device on all MX displays. A total waste of my and the helpful staffs time. Show more
