Ratings and reviews

gotta say i've always loved this app and have installed it on many phones over many years. it's charming and there's a decent selection of instruments. sadly as of today i must suspend use of the program as i am 80% positive it is cursed for me now (i am sober i promise) this entire week every time i've opened the app and played more than 10 notes, consistently something adverse would happen in real life (i am not comfortable explaining what "adverse" implies). farewell piconica.

Duuuuuuude only 3 Mega bytes, two layers, up to five or six octaves, every basic wave shape, envelope, oscillator, option to record... Anf unlike irritating 'lead' synths this baby dynamite app can play multiple voices at once, smoothly , no lag. You recieve thy badge of honor fine piano-master, as the other ten i tried were absolute garbage. Thank you (^_^)

Very easy to use keyboard app. All the GUI is easy to understand besides the visualization being kind of hidden. If I had to give any criticism the modulation and envelope settings are kind of limited and I would much rather have just a standard envelope editor. Maybe the option to lengthen custom waveforms and add vibrato and delay and stuff would be cool. It could use some more features but what it has is great and easy to use.8
