Great Tool for Minimalist Creative Process
The 909 app truly excels in supporting a minimalist creative process. Its sleek and intuitive design allows users to focus solely on their creativity without any unnecessary distractions. By offering a straightforward and uncluttered interface, the app enables artists to channel their ideas effortlessly, resulting in a seamless and enjoyable creative experience. With its minimalist approach, the 909 app proves to be an invaluable tool for anyone seeking to explore their creativity with a sense of simplicity and ease.
Brilliant if it wasn’t so broken.
Very impressive recreation of the TR-909, sadly like many other audiokit apps it’s a buggy mess. Unfortunately this app has some serious issues staying in sync when used with other apps or midi gear. It not so bad when used standalone but when it’s used as an audio unit it becomes mostly unusable.
Misses First Beat
There appears to be a bug with this app in Cubasis 3. After recording, the 909 does not play the first drum hit of the recorded midi clip. Unusable in Cubasis.
Solid 909 Sound
I have played with the hardware equivalent a couple of decades ago, and this app truly does it justice. (and then some…)
Fantastic! Oh, that kick is so solid.
The Bomb!
Really expressive and versatile - outrageous value! 😀
Good but missing features
Haven’t tried the midi yet, but this needs a 64 step sequencer and the ability to start a new sequence at the end of the currently playing sequence rather than starting the sequence immediately when tapping it.
I love all their stuff and it’s cheap so I buy all their stuff
These guys are the best audio plugin instrument makers on the App Store IMHO, not only that but they find great ways of being charitable with their open sourced and free software IP. So when I bought some of their apps I was actually giving to a charity which I like to do and also get something in return. That’s how I like to do business and I like people who do business the way I like to do business. This 909 is fun to play with but I program drums with serious intentions in mind and I know I can fulfil those with this drum machine. It sounds good, I never owned a real 909 but this is probably better IMHO because I’ve seen the 909 and it’s a big plastic clunky chunky space hog on a studio desk and this app fits on both my iPhone 7 and my iPad Pro with ease and is intuitive on both devices. I own a Korg plugKey which I use with both devices and this app works seamlessly with that interface as well as my steinberg UR22 mk2. But not my audient ID44, it doesn’t work with iPads or iPhones at all because it’s too big. But you really need midi on an interface youre planning to use with an IOS device I think anyway. Of course there’s always midi over Bluetooth and exotic forms of wifi midi so scratch that, you could always get an ID4 if you wanted to, nobody’s stopping you, no one would complain.
Top app
Thanks guys , this new app is awesome I’m just a beginner , I’ve got so much to learn and I’m this app is fun and you can create so much music , so thank you again 👍👏
Great sound
Love this app. Really enjoy the playability😎Thanks for this!!!
give this one a miss
cpu/dsp heavy, no sound editing parameters exposed to midi cc or in the au3 wrapper... only midi this takes is notes to trigger the samples inside. stop it with the lame sequencer, 16 steps? it’s 2020! why can yous just make a tight au3 app like DRUM by unklepop?
