Ive been a guitar player since childhood so I am not really very good at playing keyboards. This app was the solution I needed. Once I learned how to use the app with Audanicas short and well-done videos, I was able to apply everything I already knew about music into creating complex keyboard progressions with surprisingly little practice. There are several controller apps that I use but this one is definitely my favorite. Even if youre very new to music, once you watch the videos and get a basic understanding of how music works this app is nothing but fun for the novice as well as the experienced musician.
The app does have some very nice internal sounds (some free, some purchasable), but where it really shines is in controlling other synth apps or connect to your computer to control your Mac/PC synths. I often blend some of the internal sounds with sounds from other apps that its controlling. You can also assign a different sound to play for the number of fingers you have on the surface. You could theoretically play four different synths in a single piece. Beautiful and expressive.
Enjoy!
