    It
    Take some time to immerse yourself in this app. There's a great deal of depth and nuance here even with the somewhat familiar themes. certainly well worth the price. If you enjoy ambient, self generating and perpetuating music this is for you. As another reviewer says a great compliment to Bloom. A different environment. Looking forward to more and perhaps some upgrades. Many Thanks to Eno and Chilvers for their introspective genius !!! Show more

    Subtler than Bloom
    Some say Trope is not as responsife as Bloom. Not true. Each action by the finger is more like moving a finger over a lip of a crystal glass. Not like keystrokes on a synth like Bloom. I like it. It complements Bloom. Show more

    Excellent
    Great ambient music generation. Superb droning. Crank up the bass and enjoy.

    Excellent
    Very cool graphics. Only issue is a bug that changes line type back 2 default after I erase no matter which 1 I choose.

    Very nice
    If you like Eno's ambient work I can't see how you would be disappointed by Bloom, Trope or Air. They are all winners and completely worth the meager price.

    Honestly...
    Bloom achieved so much more. Trope is simply a very short loop of dissonant piano notes and older marks. The user hardly has any control at all. Save your cash-stick with Bloom. Show more

    Don't let the negative reviews turn you off
    At first, I was taken aback by the large number of negative reviews. These must be people who do not like ambient music because I found this to be a wonderful app. If you like Eno's "Thursday Afternoon" and other slow-moving works, this is perfect. I am glad I bought it. Eno fans who bought "Bloom" will be very pleased by this. Show more

    Works for me
    There is an occasional crackle in the audio. I haven't downloaded the newest version yet to see if that has been corrected. In spite of that - this is my most used "go to sleep" app. Show more

    Waste of money. AVOID!
    After using "Bloom" I was expecting more awesomeness, but this program falls flat on it's face with it's super-limited interface. A waste!

    Brilliant!
    Though I've only seen demos of Bloom from online reviews, I suspect Trope is a far more intelligent and sophisticated generative music engine. The result is that it takes your input and reworks it endlessly if not literally, thus offering longevity and thematic variation. With its variety of tone, timbre, and mood, Trope is capable of producing real - truly beautiful - music either on its own or with input from you. Well done! Show more
