## Mersenne - AUv3 Plug Reviews in United States

### ***** "Beautiful… Clean and Flawless"
Probably one of my favorites. Such a clean and defined sound that sends me instant sensations of frisson within seconds of playing with it…
-- i.am.York, 2024-02-11

### ***** "Simply one of the the bests"
Many people be out here “taking iPad music seriously” since Logic came out but this baby has been around for a while and half the synths on PC and Mac couldn’t hold a 1 minute staring contest against Mersenne. 

This guy is “Magnifico” 🙏🏼.

Iceworks forever!
-- Enrique Raphaël Page Pérez, 2023-06-01

### ***** "Love it"
Lots of good percussive sounds coming out of this one and a lot more! Get it now!
-- anickt, 2019-11-11

### ***** "Great sister synth to Laplace"
I return to this synthesizer app, regularly, because it does what music apps are supposed to do, a unique sound with a simple interface.  Laplace is my favorite of the ice works apps, but this is a great companion/expansion to Laplace, especially for the billed use, tuned percussion. I do like Laplace better for strings and plucks and keys. This one is really fun to play with a drum pad midi controller (tuned to a scale, if you like) for marimba, and bell like sounds.
-- Chinchilla Wafers, 2018-12-17

### ***** "Great synth!"
One of my favorite iOS synths. Being able to import third party sounds, along with the included great sounds, really sets this apart from other iOS offerings. The best part of this synth, however, is how responsiveness of the developer! Bugs are squashed very quickly with timely updates. Must buy!
-- Zjenji, 2018-01-12

### ***** "Bells, Gongs, &amp; Tines, Oh My!"
With a powerful arpeggiator. Thank you for AUv3!
-- ZenLizard, 2017-07-12

### ***** "Thanks for AU support!"
This is one of my most favorite iPad synths. When I saw Laplace get AU3 support, I was hopeful Mersenne would as well. Now that time&#039;s here and I just MIDI sequenced a quick track with it in GarageBand. The AU layout is good and scrolls smoothly to see everything. All of the effects parameters are exposed, too. I personally prefer AU to IAA or AudioBus. And I love Mersenne, so today&#039;s a great day. Thanks, IceGear!
-- k-botnick, 2017-06-29

### ****- "Link has strange property"
Love all iceworks apps. I have all the recent Link-enabled ones and they are always the first ones I open during a session. 

For some reason, when the apps join the network they interrupt the tempo of the session first instead of looking at what the current tempo is first and changing to that. 

This can really jumble what would otherwise be a seamless and enjoyable experience. 

All the synths sound great and I love the arp and hold buttons. I also love that they have standard midi functionality.
-- Klrxs, 2017-01-30

### ****- "Wonderful and unique"
I like how this FM+Resonator synth focuses on a particular sound. It sounds a lot like some of the instruments in a Gamelan ensemble. When combined with the arpeggiator and delay it&#039;s easy and fun to compose a sort of modern synthesized version of a Gamelan. That&#039;s mainly what I use it for, and because I have an affection for Gamelan music, this synth brings a smile to my face when working with it.  

Mersenne&#039;s MIDI implementation is excellent. The controls are very functional and easy to use. The two Tone generators, the Noise generator, Resonator, drive and delay, chorus and reverb are logically laid out and instantly useable. The arpeggiator is especially powerful, letting you design your own patterns for saving and recalling. The minimalistic elegance in Mersenne&#039;s design is apparent and  well suited to the sounds this synth produces.   The single-mindedness of Mersenne&#039;s sound is very much a plus in this case. 

Because Mersenne is so good at getting that Gamelan type sound, including different tuning systems, especially Far East tunings would be an excellent addition to this synth and would qualify it for a legitimate 5 star rating. I can manipulate the detuning, glide and other parameters to get a slightly faux eastern sound, but that&#039;s not the same as an authentic Gamelan tuning. 

Overall one of the best and most enjoyable synths of 2016.
