MKSensation Xtreme

The #1 Bread and Butter Synth

Published by: MIDIculous

Description

The MKSensation Xtreme builds on our renowned MKSensation plugin, delivering the most accurate sampled representation of the classic MKS-20 piano module. Rooted in gospel music, the MKS-20 has been a staple in countless gospel albums, often stacked alongside JV-Series, Motifs, and other vintage racks for a rich, dynamic sound. Traditionally, musicians relied on complex MIDI setups to blend and control layers in real-time. MKSensation Xtreme replaces decades of hardware, offering the same powerful layering and live performance flexibility in a single app.
With the power of modern iPads and M1 chips, MKSensation Xtreme provides the equivalent of eight Pure Synth Platinums. Each of the eight sound slots features independent AMP, Filter, Control, LFO, and effects, plus 8-insert effect slots (with up to five effects per slot), along with Global and Master effects. All effect buses are easily controlled via red faders, and, as with all our apps, full MIDI learn functionality is included.
Designed for live performance, the app not only delivers our signature sounds but also allows you to host your own AUv3 instruments and effects. You can seamlessly integrate external sounds, run them through our filters, AMP, LFO, and modulation, and enjoy the ultimate flexibility—whether using MKSensation Xtreme’s sounds or purely its powerful hosting capabilities.
iPad Version vs Desktop
The iPad version is identical to the desktop version as far as features, synthesis, and functionality. The only difference is in sound: We removed the second version of the MKS sounds, so that there is only one main version of the MKS soundest, instead of two different versions on the desktop. The quality is the same.

MKSensation Xtreme Reviews

Great app and Support Team

DrDave471 on

United States

This program is like the Roland RD-1000 and P-330 on steroids. I had a playback issue on my I-Pad after the last OS update. A few patches played but most were met with a thud sound or a high pitched squeal. Normal re-sets and deletions…didn’t work so after just a couple of days the support staff (who kept in constant contact) re-worked the app and now everything is back to normal. The reason why I mention this as I had an issue with another vendor (piano program) and it took them 11 months to fix the problem. Top notch support and many other excellent apps.

Clarity Grand Download issues

Jamstreet beat on

United States

After I downloaded Clarity Grand, now the App stalls, then crashes. Re-booted iPad, still same issue. Please correct issue. Thanks.

Great apps, but confusing ecosystem

ovrdrvn on

United States

I own all of the iOS apps, and it’s very hard to determine which is which, as they often overlap in sounds. There was a system where at least if you owned one of the older apps, they were migrated to the newer apps. But there seems to be three active apps now that share at least one sample bank and yet that sample upon purchase isn’t available to all the other apps

Didn’t work but now it work

Girl too on

United States

I brought this on Friday and it didn’t work so I read other’s comments and and I got it to work

Just purchased played for a hour and then died

rick keys on

United States

I just installed and was loving came back a hour later and nothing the midi won’t connect to the keyboard and even playing the onscreen keys it’s sticking notes . I really love the sounds but you can’t gig with this being so unstable

need to know asap !

JayLoveKeys on

United States

Is this compatible with the Yamaha Moxf ?? Keeps saying “ no midi input available “

Beast for live playing!

papaskunk on

United States

This app is crazy. The value you get for the price completely blows me away. It does everything I need for live playing. The sounds are incredible. Atmosphere Keys 2 alone will get you all tingly inside. There is so much functionality in here, I can’t even begin to go over it all. There is some great YouTube content that you can get a demo of how it sounds. For a gigging musician, this is a steal.

Nice app but

JaicobCran on

United States

Just like the other app fm tines. This is a great app but. Some other sounds won’t play properly like piano b MKS, an p3 piano b won’t play properly… for now I think I’ll keep it cause of others I like but if no change on sounds that drew me in that I want then I’m just gonna delete and need a refund

Having trouble

912 man on

United States

I keep having to delete and download the app. I have already deleted all other sound libraries and still continue to have problems with the app. For some reason it will quit working. Can’t get any sound from it. Once I delete it and download it again it will work for a few days then do the same thing again. I’m using an iPad Pro.

Great app but does have some limitations

catttty90 on

United States

I love the stock sounds and the ability to use plugins as well as create sets. However, I have discovered that it has some limitations for sharing and transferring. After buying a new iPad, I discovered that the only way to restore a back up to the new device is if you backed up your old iPad completely on iCloud. You then have to restore you new iPad completely from iCloud when you first set it up. That is something I didn’t know, plus I don’t pay for iCloud storage so I don’t have enough space to do a full backup. Also, at the moment the regular backup option is broken with the current iOS update. Also, you can export presets from the iPad app but there is no way to import them. Therefore, I can’t share them between my iPads, I can’t share them with other users at my church that have purchased the app, and I can’t share them to anyone else that would like to have my custom presets that I have built out and tweaked. I have a YouTube channel and would like to share my custom presets with subscribers. I am working with support to see if anything will be done to fix the broken back up option or if there will be a feature added in the future for importing presets. I will change this review if something is done.
