Auv3. -- bbydy, 2024-12-28 ### ****- "Awesome Sounds" I have been collecting synths for a while. I really love the first synth these guys did, the free one. Synth One. This one here is worth every cent and much more. It sounds like a Roland D50 and some DX 7 rolled into one - but updated and even better. The D1 is now my favorite. I would only go outside of it for one or two favorite sounds on Synth One, and Garage Band for the Rhodes patch. UPDATE 10/7: I’m taking one star way because some of my favorite patches have disappeared. What happened to the Moog patches? There may be others missing as well. -- PapaLooshi, 2024-11-19 ### *---- "NOT compatible with Logic Pro X 10/2/24" The synth sounds have tons of potential. However, this is an utter waste of money if you are working in Logic Pro X. It crashed Logic several times and displays the error: “Failed to load Audio Unit “Digital D1. Please contact the manufacturer for an updated version or further assistance” -- JasonRJasonR, 2024-10-03 ### ***-- "The sounds" While the app is amazing the sounds is what makes me not use it often. What about real hip hop and r&b sounds not everyone samples music I like to produce my music . Would be nice to see some companies taking a real interest in good sounds that we can use . The way people use the sounds on YouTube sounds a mess when they try to do how to video that’s music they make up is horrible. Bottom line we need sounds we can use in hip hop and r&b -- E choice, 2024-08-03 ### ***** "Adios , other synth apps...." From now on when I play live or record and need great ,professional sounds...I know this synth will be the one that delivers instant inspiration. Thank You so much for what you’re doing for musicians everywhere. The quality on this one is a Level above ,… Come to think of it I remember when I downloaded your Audio Kit 1.0 {mach. 1 } . I loved the reverb so much , it was the best sounding and I wished I could run my guitar and vocals through that app ,..I’m happy almost every app you guys released after that still had that great canyon Reverb setting. I’ve always found the programming in the Audio Kit Apps to produce a unique type of analog signal ,..that sooths and relaxes the ear instead of being intrusive …that’s why it’s always so fun to play and always inspires a playimg session you can’t pull yourself away from to hit record. Great job throughout All the apps,..it’s proof that multiple heads are better than one … I think Godzilla would disagree however, 🏬🏢🏗️☢️🏛️🏫 🐉…🔥.🌈🦖 I can’t remember right now the name of the 3 headed dragon,…gidora maybe ??? 🤔 -- Maxwellteks, 2024-07-18 ### ***** "Beautiful sounds" Great sounds, I love it…. -- Lu71, 2024-06-14 ### ***** "AudioKit is the most respected and one of the most true essential patron for indie musicians" Play it! -- Deathrow Inmates, 2023-09-19 ### ***** "Great app" Fantastic synth. Can’t believe it’s free! -- Pagansongbird, 2023-08-03 ### ***** "Great instrument!" You will lose yourself in these sounds! -- Prosvetlen, 2023-07-05 ### ***** "So far works great in aum and Cubasis love the sounds too" I’d been eyeing this and seeing it high up in the top app charts so kept skipping over due to the notes about crashing and limited auv at first, til recently it’s been consistently high up in top charts with a very Hugh rating so I decided to try it at 3.99 , largely in excitement for Brice presets and more . I also read extremely positive reviews too and have learned that sometimes less apps get low rating due to user error buying it before out knowing how to use it and then expressing frustration in a review . That said this is a great synth and I’m on a 2022 iPad Air 5th gen, no crashes . -- hyperfocusmusic, 2023-05-01 [View all AudioKit Digital D1 Synth reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://app.apptail.io/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Apps Similar to AudioKit Digital D1 Synth -
