Ratings and reviews

Its too bad because the interface is dead easy but theres no way to export tracks and the the rhythm engine is pretty beat.. falls off sync with just a few hits on a beat and no swing function. Basically somebody got lazy. Finish the app, add the features that any emulator worth its salt can DEFINE ITSELF By and I'd probably give this a good grade. Sounds are pretty decent but again, NO WAY to tweak

Performs well. No lag & the sounds are descent enough. It's just lacking in features. Can't save as WAV file. Can't play individual bars.. A real problem if you are working on something more than a few pages long, if you want to listen to the 18th bar, you'd have to listen to the whole lot to get to that 18 page/bar. It's details like that that stops this app being a useful sequencer. The live drumpads are responsive to the touch & the sounds are quite close to the original 909. Kick drum aside

it sounds fine and has some good options such as individual volumes and changing the number of bars and stuff but you can't swing it and therefore you can't really make a good beat. musically its rather limited
