The soundtrack to the video is really awfull
The soundtrack to the video is really amazing
The soundtrack to the video is really just ok.
The soundtrack to the video is.
This is an awesome synth. I bought it as soon as it was available for my Mac. Stoked to see they are making an iOS version . I will def buy it when it comes out. Now if Rapture would be made available for Mac that would be very cool.
I had such a strong opinion of the music in the demo video that I am definitively going to buy/not buy this app when it comes out.
That attitude is why everybody missed out on the 303 & 808 when they were released.
Whoever made the demo song in the video, must be a person who might reads or might not reads these comments.
…but we’ll never know which. It’s a tragedy. Or a travesty…
Now you are posting funny comments but you are all going to die, and the music of the demo will still be there , lonely, bad and uninspired as it is
I hadn’t really paid any attention to this app before (when it was Windows only) by the time it was Mac, I already had Big Tick’s Rhino– and didn’t really have that much dough to throw around.
Now I’ve studied this synth a bit and it is VERY impressive. I hope they keep the Scala scale/tuning maps in the iPad version, but even if they don’t this one seems like a great synth for iPad. Will buy for sure.
Rhino is underrated – it was one of the synths that got me into FM again, and of course it also has filters, effects, a sequencer, etc..
There really is an embarrassment of wealth of excellent software synths, but the iOS ones are so appealing because of their lower pricing. 😉
Roland seems so out of touch with their fans.
