Description

bismark bs-16i is a 16 multi-timbral playback sampler. It loads SoundFont and DLS (Downloadable Sounds) as WaveTable and can be used for keyboard instruments, MIDI sound modules, and MIDI file players.

bs-16i has the synthesizer engine that has been adopted for many professional/commercial types of equipment. Using SoundFont / DLS libraries, you can play with your great number of instruments. With Hi-Res Engine option prepared as an In-App purchase option enables high-quality and low-noise audio outputs by 100% floating-point calculations.

All standard MIDI messages are supported, and your iPhone and iPad can be used as a GM (General MIDI) sound module by using pre-installed GeneralUser GS SoftSynth v1.44.sf2 (S. Christian Collins).

The best for literally anything!!

Ajdagreat88 on

I absolutely love this app and have been using it for about a year now. I use it in GarageBand for all my songs, and it’s saved the day multiple times. It allows you to take any sound font from the internet, and put it into your daw. Thank you for this amazing app!

Tony Singer on

I change my IPad , and not opening ? What can I do , even I tried to purchase again

Stuck notes are common rendering this app not useable

BadMarvin on

This is the only auv3 app I’ve purchased that has this behavior. I’d send it back if I could.

Its great but have some issue

is the dirpy warpy on

This is a great app over all. But we do have some issue. I purchased this app 2 weeks ago, and I couldn’t find it working with AUv3 in GarageBand. It’s suppose load in “Audio Init Extension” but instead it loaded in “Inter-app unit”, and I have no idea how to fix it. Though everything else worked fine, but I’m still trying to make it work.

Great app

MrDMan005 on

This app is pretty amazing.

AUv3 version doesn’t recall soundfonts

whatsKrakken on

2021 update: I ended up giving up on this app because the soundfont recall issue has been a known problem for years but has never been fixed. It's a shame because the bs16i has all of the features that the other soundfont apps for iOS lack.

Catch Busy Boy

GOLDEN_SONIC71 on

Quick question. How do you get "Catch Busy Boy" because I wanna use it for "el paso del gigante" and I tried looking for it but couldn't find it.

FIX TRANSPOSE

Arturo_Garcia on

This app is amazing!!!! But its totally useless if transpose doesnt work!! Please fix it!

Love this app

Lesndes on

I’ve used this app for a number of years but just came across this bug. After adding portamento to a patch I tried (multiple times) to save it as a scene. After it “saves” the portamento setting is at 0. I’ve tried saving it as a new scene, overwriting an old scene, changing the sound font, and everything else I could think of but nothing saves the portamento setting. This is not the on/off setting (that gets saved) but the amount of portamento. Why is this?

Auv3 problem

pjeadmin134 on

Please send a new update for auv3 because I made some music with the app but right after this new update today the won’t load inside BeatMaker,nanostudio and others app pls send send an update for the app to load as auv3 due to sound selections I made when making music.
