"Digital D1 synth is pure ‘80s and ‘90s digital lushness" - Computer Music/Music Radar
"Beautiful. Lush. Modern and Amazing… An Instant Classic."

REQUIREMENTS:
Requires newer iPads for best performance. May be slow on iPad 4.
IAA is being deprecated by Apple in iOS 13. We're moving to AUv3 as well. Please replace IAA with AUv3 in your projects.

GarageBand Audio Unit (AUv3):
You can run one instance of D1 as an AUv3 in GarageBand. With a host like AUM, you can run 3 or more instances at once.

TROUBLESHOOTING:
For iPad 4 - Open the "Settings" button (to the upper left above the keyboard). Turn the buffer to 512 or above. And turn the "CPU Efficient" toggle to on. If still having trouble, try closing other music apps and/or rebooting your iPad. Thanks!

** This app does not sample any PCM-based synths, including Roland or Korg digital keyboards. Additionally, this app does not have any business relationship with Roland, Korg, or any other 80s/90s Digital Synth manufacturers.

*** All app sounds were created by pure analog and fm synthesis. We took these new sounds. Stacked them. Flipped them. And, processed the heck out of ’em. Resulting in a beautiful new sonic palette for you to enjoy.

D1

Great synth!!

3 Stars Because…

This crashes constantly. All I have to do is browse presets. Instead of telling people who bought this to update to newer technology, maybe update this to bring it in line with newer technology.

Brilliant but riddled with bugs

Sound wise this synth is a fantastic recreation of old PCM synths, it’s probably my favourite iOS synth for pads. Unfortunately it is incredibly buggy and is unusable as an audio unit.

No recording Botton and no enough easy access

No recording Botton and no enough easy access Charged me $7.99 AUD for nothing. Stupid

Amazing sounds

New to iOS these sounds are amazing and I couldn’t be happier.

A real impetus for creativity

The presets here are so inspiring and conducive to endless fun designing new sounds! A very straight forward and easy to navigate GUI.

Worth the investment

Perfect integration with Cubasis. Sounds better than my Korg. Thanks fam ❤️

A crashed

Keeps crashing please fix.

Indispensable

D1 is a treasured resource and has cured my hardware synth FOMO.

Almost Perfect but Issues With Scala Files

I love almost everything about this app and its counterpart Synth One. My only complaint is that Tune Up needs a little tweaking. When I try to import a Scala file (.scl) using the “import” button in the “tune” section of Synth One, the file is greyed out. When I change the file extension to .txt, it is no longer greyed out, but selecting it doesn’t actually load the tuning, it just closes the menu. So I have no way to import scales from the Scala archive into Synth One, and thus no way to get those scales into Digital D1 either. Tune Up is working perfectly, I can create a scale in Wilsonic and load it in Digital D1 or Synth One. The only issue is when I try to import a Scala file from the Scala archives or another third party source, the “import” feature just doesn’t work in Synth One. And because of that I can’t import it across to Digital D1 either. Once this is fixed, the app will be perfect. As it stands right now, it’s almost perfect. I’d give it 4.9999999 stars! And same goes for Synth One and Wilsonic. Keep up the great work :)
