Square Waves

I loved this app, even upgraded to premium,until it stopped playing anything. I deleted and reinstalled. It asked me to upgrade to premium…again!

This app is a good idea, but it doesn’t work

I want to love this app, but it is kinda hard when everything displays as Track 14 and Track 33. Why can’t we import NSFE files? Immediate 5 star with that one change.

However, some features still lacking... Like a built-in tag editor and playback of Genesis tracks in VGZ and SNES in a compressed RSN format and a choice of customizing audio quality settings (playback and sample rates, equalizer and stereo expansion) similar to Droidsound-e, among others...

This app appears to be useless in iOS 15. All my songs are gone, all my lists are empty, and nothing will actually import. Also, tapping Playlists crashes the app.

I was a big NoisES user, and basically every chiptune player I’d found for iOS was just… too bulky or came with seven thousand hours of unremovable pre-installed music. So, was happy to find this app. On the plus side: it’s minimal, it has all the functions I’d want, and it plays just fine. However, in my ~3 days of use, this app has been seriously buggy. A selection: — loading files from iCloud or Google Drive does not recognize .nsf files. At all. It will load .7z or .zip with an .nsf in it just fine, but trying to add the .nsf alone doesn’t work (its greyed out) — songs work fine, for a while, but within a few uses of the app, the songs remain in the UI but playing them does nothing. If you look at the “Voices” menu for those songs, they’re empty, so there’s nothing to play I assume these are growing pains of the project, so I’ve got high hopes for the future, but for now I think I’ve got to shelve this until some of the kinks get worked out.

This is by far the best retro music player I’ve ever used, but my only complaints are that the app only supports music files up to the SNES and Genesis. I’d love to see N64 and maybe even GameCube support if that’s possible, but even with that, this is still a perfect 5/5!

I’ve been using the application for approximately a year or more at this point. I think it does a great job at being a media player for VGM files. I love the ability of isolating the different channels, you can really hone in on the different sounds and synths involved in some of the music, especially tunes that tend to have louder channels that overshadow underlying synths that would normally go unnoticed. As it sits right now, the only thing I wish that could be added is the ability for custom VGM files to be used. Aside from that, this application is solid!

It seems that the player only gives you the option to mute the 2 square wave channels on nes files. Control of the other 3 would be great.

This sounds fine for me until I try and select a song from the Songs UI. After the crash it won’t play music until I restart the phone
