But....Who is it for?" Ok, ok... I’m starting to like this app now. It’s power comes from its simplicity. Speaking of star rating - I think it only makes sense to give rating that are not absolute because how do you compare this app to much more complex, bigger, more advanced and perhaps more suited for professionals apps? I’m rating it as a simple, approachable app. It does have tons of limitations and you probably won’t create your new album in but as a simple musical tool it is pretty good. Much improved version with full MIDI implementation. Great MIDI options with very easy and intuitive MIDI mapping. I love that sub divided steps are represented by unique MIDI notes. Now DM1 needs this feature! Nice interface, clean and well laid out. Super straight forward and intuitive to use. I appreciate small things such as ability to set the metronome volume or no nonsense mixer and effects panels. Some negatives remain: Ability to go “off the grid” in terms of quantization is needed. Nothing kills the vibe more than being restricted to 16 steps. Gotta swing! No polyphony for Bass and Lead tracks. It would be so great if polyphony was somehow possible. Maybe via multiple layers per lead and bass tracks? There’s still a bug where some notes sometimes are ignored completely depending on specific BPM. Weird. Why would anybody use that instead of DM1? I have a difficulty figuring out who this app is really for. It does not have enough capabilities to be used by a serious musician and is perhaps too minimalistic and dry to inspire an enthusiast. Maybe it’s for kids? As such, it could be pretty good as it is very intuitive and does not have flashy things which are a distraction to kids. -- SynthUser123, 2020-04-04 ### ****- "New update" This is one of my favorite music making apps, however, as of the last update, the app has been malfunctioning. Also, I’ve had issues connecting my Korg NanoKey Studio via Bluetooth. After these issues are resolved, I can be in love again. I support any build based on Audiokit Pro, and I hate giving anything less than positive reviews. -- Dino7, 2020-04-03 ### ***-- "Not bad, needs some improvements." The AU's UI should be larger; the buttons are far too small even on a 10.5 inch iPad. Timeline Mode should not be switched off when selecting another pattern to edit; that way, multi bar patterns can play while being edited. And this may be fixed in the next update, but the AUv3 is incapable of MIDI out. It's so close to being something I would use every time I'm making music, so I hope Fingerlab will make these improvements. I love being able to select a note with the keyboard and then place it in the grid, while editing drums. -- Cenk , 2020-03-19 ### ***** "Practical and intuitive" Just tried it and love it! Hope you make a 32 track version with eq per track, with built in sampler, etc. Being AUv3 makes all the difference. -- Chipraise, 2020-02-18 ### ****- "Fun auv3 sketch pad" I’ve been having fun so far with the app. A few suggestions 1. I could not submit a help desk ticket to you the email link I found on your page did not work 2. Can you increase the window size for auv3 mode, on iPad Pro 2018 when in AUM I’m unable to get it to stretch full screen. 3. Request if you can take advantage of the new auv3 multi output that just came out and if you can add user samples if possible- would make some great additional selling points. Overall fun and interesting results are to be had so far thanks 😊 -- DJSUN1, 2020-02-15 ### ***** "I Feel Like An Electric Tiger" ...Whatever that means, um, basically this app is extremely awesome and beautiful. I would love to be able to export, maybe more instrument slots, and instruments. But it's already really cool so that would just make it off the charts. I also see that an update is coming soon which I'm pumped for, let's see!!! Thanks FINGERLAB. Shout out to the UI Designers. And on second thought, this app makes me feel like I'm on a Weyland-Yutani ship making beats with Ripley. This app is going to add that extra umph to my creative teams lives. We love new toys\tools. -- NKAI Professional, 2020-02-02 [View all Playset reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://app.apptail.io/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Playset Discovered Keywords - playset ## Apps Similar to Playset - [Hyperion Synthesizer](https://apptail.io/app/hyperion-synthesizer-Dvid/united-states) - [WoodStepper](https://apptail.io/app/woodstepper-UYFe/united-states) - [iAutoharp](https://apptail.io/app/iautoharp-sSvk/united-states) - [Euclidium](https://apptail.io/app/euclidium-JTKm/united-states) - [BTS FX](https://apptail.io/app/bts-fx-uCzp/united-states) - [JAX ONE Frequency Shifter](https://apptail.io/app/jax-one-frequency-shifter-bPkq/united-states) - [Polybeep](https://apptail.io/app/polybeep-iHpq/united-states) - [JAX TubeFlavour](https://apptail.io/app/jax-tubeflavour-jeEq/united-states) - [Zodiak Taurus Mega Octavizer](https://apptail.io/app/zodiak-taurus-mega-octavizer-MtZq/united-states) - [Nostalgia FX](https://apptail.io/app/nostalgia-fx-tgQw/united-states) ## Playset Available In - [United States](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/united-states) - [United Kingdom](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/united-kingdom) - [France](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/france) - [Canada](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/canada) - [Germany](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/germany) - [Türkiye](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/turkey) - [Netherlands](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/netherlands) - [Indonesia](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/indonesia) - [Spain](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/spain) - [Finland](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/finland) - [Greece](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/greece) - [Ireland](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/ireland) - [India](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/india) - [Italy](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/italy) - [South Korea](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/south-korea) - [Kuwait](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/kuwait) - [Kazakhstan](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/kazakhstan) - [Lebanon](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/lebanon) - [Lithuania](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/lithuania) - [Madagascar](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/madagascar) - [Mexico](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/mexico) - [Nigeria](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/nigeria) - [Norway](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/norway) - [New Zealand](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/new-zealand) - [Peru](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/peru) - [Pakistan](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/pakistan) - [Poland](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/poland) - [Romania](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/romania) - [Russia](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/russia) - [Saudi Arabia](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/saudi-arabia) - [Singapore](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/singapore) - [Slovenia](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/slovenia) - [Thailand](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/thailand) - [Taiwan](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/taiwan) - [Ukraine](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/ukraine) - [Vietnam](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/vietnam) - [United Arab Emirates](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/united-arab-emirates) - [South Africa](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/south-africa) - [Australia](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/australia) - [Azerbaijan](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/azerbaijan) - [Belgium](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/belgium) - [China](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/china) - [Dominican Republic](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/dominican-republic) - [Ecuador](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/ecuador) - [Egypt](https://apptail.io/app/playset-groovebox-sequencer-NfBp/egypt) --- ## About AppTail [AppTail](https://apptail.io) is a mobile app intelligence platform providing app analytics, ASO (App Store Optimization) tools, keyword tracking, competitor analysis, revenue estimates, and review monitoring for iOS App Store apps.
