If you’ve used the new version of WaveGenerator, let us know what you think of it!
I love this app, but I have had some midi issues. I just wish they would add midi learn, like sunrizer.
Yup, same wish from me. Sunrizer has a simlpe, fast and great midilearn.
… and what a fantastic update it is to already excellent app 🙂
I had troubles setting MIDI CC with the envelopes, also the values do not refresh when used with a MIDI controller. I love it though 🙂
All these improvements are welcome. But I’m really only waiting for Midi OUT functionality. I want to be able to record my performance and quantize it.
I’m really impressed with the pace the dev is setting. And I know they read Synthtopia, so:
Hey, devs!
+1 MIDI out
+1 MIDI learn
You guys are awesome.
I wished all developers paid as much attention to what users have to say, here, at Facebook and at their own sites. Too many put out apps and then you never hear from them again.
Palm is doing a great job!
This little beauty will become a major fixture because Wolfgang is staying on top of it with practical and welcome adjustments. Thumbs up. About 2 more rounds and the only thing people will be able to ask for is updates for OS revisions. iPads have some growing to do, but its already possible to have a Wakeman-like setup, capability-wise. Sweet.
virtual midi working great with soundprism now. Nice to have soundprism to play on instead of those little rectangles. easy solution though
still my fav ios synth!
