    Sweet sound but where’s the AU ?
    What I’m upset about is when I bought this, at some point it included an AU and or VST3 plug-in that I could then use with Logic Pro x and if it works with Logic it works with apples main stage. There’s even a link to download the plugin but there’s nothing there. What happened? When these music apps came out for iPhone and later iPad I considered them just music/game apps. Something to play with not a reliable performing tool. Plus I’ve looked everywhere and i think this is the only lap steel out there. Amazingly so far I’ve just listened to it through my gen 1 iPad Pro with 4 speakers. It’s amazing the sweet sound this makes through those tiny speakers. I can’t wait to hear it through my studio rig. Let me know if I can get a plug-in for Logic Pro x . Ofcoarse it would have to be played on a keyboard and will not have all these functions. Maybe that’s why it’s gone Show more

    No MIDI Hardware Support
    Even though the app says Hardware In, I assumed this meant that you can enable playing notes on your midi keyboard, it doesn’t work at all. I wish I had never purchased this. Show more

    What Have I Been Missing?
    I bought this app when it first went on sale and picked up the in-app purchases. I played with it a couple of times then I never touched it again until today. 5 years I’ve had this and not used it’s amazing tone and vibe. Over the last couple of years I’ve learned a bit about slide guitar so I applied that to this and in no time I was playing Ry Cooders Feelin’ Bad Blues. The only real downside I see with this is that I can’t mute the strings that are ringing when I move to other strings. That’s right hand technique. But you can adjust the dampened sustain so it creates an imperfect approximation but still usable. I highly recommend this app even if just to try killing time in the waiting line at your local rat race. It sounds great and it’s fun. Show more

    Midi
    Would love it if you could add midi notes...so you can play the actual sounds thru a midi controller(keyboard)...I could rate this 5 stars...the pitch bend or mod wheel should control the slider bar...you could sell more...most people use midi controllers these days...then I could rate it 5 stars Show more

    Rip-off Alert
    They have the nerve to put this on cybermonday sale without revealing that it crashes on open because is FIVE YEARS OLD and yet ANOTHER paid app rendered useless by an apple update with no discernible value. This was a lovely application and like so many others, is useless and irreplaceable. Don’t bother clicking for support, they don’t even list this on their menu. For sale yes, support NO. Show more

    Was on sale with all apps today and bought it all but doesnt work
    Even bought the “whole enchalada”package for an extra 9.99 to be able to access midi control but it doesn’t work

    IAA issue
    I’m trying to use this as an IAA in BM3 and no sound is coming through. Tried to use with Audiobus but this app isn’t compatible. Is there a way to make this work? Show more

    Genuinely Nice App
    Love the app, very unique and creative. Would be complete imo if it included a Nylon String Guitar. I know there are no steel slides in Nylon Guitar playing, but this is todays’ music. Composition and creativity is what you make of it, so the limitation of not having one only leaves room for the next guy to go for it. My two cents. Show more

    Misleading claims midi compatibility, not playable with midi
    Based on the information in the app, I assumed that midi playability was part of the ‘advanced midi options’ you can pay to purchase. But midi can’t be used to play the instrument, just for secondary parameters like fx and volume. Dishonest company. Show more

    Marvelous app... as soon as I figured out to play the bar on the right!
    It took me a bit to get sound out of it. I am used to playing the strings, but here you need to play that pickup pad on the right! Fantastic sounds. Love Kauldron and Magellan as well! Thank you! Exploring and have discovered this only works using the onscreen fretboard. Disappointing, as I would love to access the sounds with a keyboard. Any chance of that happening? Show more

    Some lovely guitar choices; include a Stratocaster for the Strat lover?
    The tele and acoustic and twelve string and lapsteels I quite enjoy. I love the sound of a Strat also and was wondering if it’s possible to include a Strat to play steel guitar with in this app? ♥️?? Thank you God bless you ? Show more

    Slide bar locks
    Kind of hard to play steel guitar without a movable slide bar. It works sometimes but only after I stop and restart the app
  • Ribblefribbitz, 01.03.2018
    Would love to try it
    Every time I try to download it, it appears to download and then puts up a dialog box saying the app could not be downloaded.

    Stunning...Yonac has brought steel guitar into everyone's sound palate
    Yonac makes incredible apps and their ToneStack amp emulator is the most underrated music production app around- it smokes the glossy, licensed amp packages quite easily. This crazy Steel Guitar app somehow takes the sonic mojo that makes their amp sounds so convincing to the next level with a pedal steel sound extremely close to the real thing. For adding authentic twang to country and acoustic based productions this app is a no brainer but what's really cool are the possibilities using Steel Guitar as a tool for creating effected sounds for music of any genre. It is so easy to use, you can tune the steels any way you want and the amp & effect models in the app are very good. Update 5/2016: had to amend my review with a word on the V.2 Whole Enchilada in-app purchase. I got it on sale and man, it adds another layer to an already brilliant app. The Telecaster and Gibson P-90 sounds are so good you may be able to fool someone in a blindfold test, seriously. The app is made in my opinion for subtle slide touches, not all out fast Elmore James or Ry Cooder stuff. But for swells, cool chord transitions and effects the app is limitless. You can Audiobus it with any effect, make a custom tuning and boom, you have a sound that no synth can cop. I am amazed at Yonac again, and they are in a class by themselves anyway. This, TubeStack, Magellan, Galileo...those are essential apps if you make music with an iOS device, end of story. Show more

    Awesome!
    After buying and spending 4 amazing hours with Tone Stack, I looked at other apps on the website and watched the video for Steel Guitar. Bought it, and the whole enchilada pack. This app is so awesome, the sounds, the layout, the features. A couple of things on my wishlist: MIDI out, so I can record and edit my many mistakes in a piano roll editor. And the awesome Bristol amp model and the totally brilliant Pepper & Vinegar overdrive from Tone Stack! Thank you :) Show more
