Good sounds
Where can a guy get instructions as to how to use it? Sure you can make sounds but I don’t know how to lay out complex beats to where they all play or how to sample before adding while they are going yadda yadda

My favorite app
It’s great on its own but I like to use the sequencer in AUM to program other synths.
Best 303 on the iOS App Store
I’ve never owned a real TB 303, but I did have a Behringer TD-3 which I did side by side comparisons with, and when I was done I sold the TD-3. In my opinion the oscillator sounds, the filter response, the envelope and the accent are all spot-on. The LFO and distortion are nice bonuses. The sequencer is great. The drum machine sounds terrific and the step sequencer is easy enough to program. It all works great as an AUv3 plugin, including multi-output for more complex setups. A first-rate 303 synthesizer with enough functionality to be a fun acid groovebox that will plug into your DAW. If this isn’t in your collection you are missing out!
Really great, I wish it had a drum grid
I wish it had a mode to switch into grid editing mode for drums.
Pure (controllable) Crazy!
Very VERY fun! At first glance it seems like it’s gonna take and hour long video or a lengthy sit down with the manual. But I learned enough to have a blast just by poking around. It’s broad and deep and is perhaps the most fun live performance app in iOS! The ability to regenerate the melodic sequence is my favorite aspect. You can choose any combo of variables: note, gate, scale, key, then regenerate on the fly, reverse, shift, vary and undo it all to revert back to a base melody. It’s really all that - just buy it already!
Flashbacks?
Was hoping Pure Acid was going to be just the first of more to come. Always plays well with others. Connect Pure Acid with Riffler, seriously doubt you'll be disappointed.
Get this app!
This is so cool! So easy to use! Sounds phenomenal! For the bass alone it is definitely worth it! I had so many apps I was reluctant to get another. This is a must have for the synth alone, so good! And you get drums and a sequencer
My face is melting. (in the BEST possible way)
I have yet to scratch the surface with this thing; completely blown away thus far. The sounds are great, the beats are great, and the 303 is gorgeous. Just beginning? Try this: go to the mixer page. At the top left is the play button. Push that. Up pops a groove and a bassline. Tweak knobs. play with the effects. experiment turning the bassline or drums on and off to build tension. Getting tired of that bassline? Bring up the bassline page. tap the grid where the notes lighting up as each step goes by. WHen you tapped, a bunch of options pop up. Just tap one of those buttons, and the pattern is instantly reworked, in the same key at the same tempo. Instant break. Now hit Undo... and you are back to the original track. This thing is SO EASY AND FUN AND GOOD. Much love to the developer, A+++. Might send back the TD-3... not sure I need it now.
The Best
Best sounding app I have period!
Yessir! - UPDATES
It’s still great. Love the logo! 😆 It just keeps getting better. AU and a few minor bugs fixed. This ones a no brainer! Five star app as it is. Dev already gave a brief roadmap of where this is going. His credentials are impeccable. No brainer as far as I’m concerned. Great job Jim!
