Full version still displays full-page ads each time a new sound is chosen
Disappointed
2024-05-21
Don't! don't! Lost the respect and admiration for Apple.
Totally unusable product! you'd be repenting your decision later after clicking the purchase button. hope it'd save somebody, and don't have to go through this nightmare of an app. Worthless waste of an app from a very genius developer. I wish they Could’ve Learned from Audiothing, Bram Bos, OSC, 4pockets, Bleass, these giants. It’ll always be a wastage of an app, save your bucks!
What are you try to become apple, The most materialistic lustful corporation, Totally ravaged the dream Steve Jobsstarted Apple with.

Was great until today’s update.
I paid for the full unlock for this app a couple years ago however even after that, the new update today now has the front page of it inundated with ads that instantly knew my address because the dev also implemented a ton of trackers in this newest update. Charging to unlock a pro version of an app only to turn around and make an update that gives you ads anyway is not good business practice. Deleting it now.
The sounds are decent but not worth it now for the ads and trackers you get on your device. Also looks like the pro price went from $3.99 to $19.99. Up to you to decide if it’s worth it.

iDousyn Lite works.......this one does not
I already had the iDousyn Lite in my iPad Pro with iOS 16 and it works without any issue. This one does not. I tried deleting and reinstalling with the same results. I rebooted the iPad.....same thing, it does not work. Fix it !

Just Doesnt Work
The App crashes immediately. Totally unusable. Gave a three stars bc it looks promising and my hope is for an update.
2023-03-27
Even discounted not worth it.
Not worth $1.99. Sure would have felt burnt if I’d spent the $7.99.

iDousyn review
Great piano and strings app with effects. It will take a few hours to learn the app though.

Basura

Gr8 but
This will be 5 star when it will add a reset button also when fixed the sound crash what happens sometimes and i have to close the app and reopen to get sound thanks

Don’t get the bad reviews
I enjoy the sound, look , and features of the app. Could use Audiobus and auv3 but it has multiple formats you can export your recorded material to so not entirely necessary if you have a good app to export to and edit further if desired.

So much potential- WASTED
Bro, please fix the app. Charge. Some IAP if you need. We’re a generous sort for the devs who actually try. Ty

The sounds are on the better side of...
Decent! The sounds are the potential of this app but the controls make it extremely unintuitive. One has to go to the far ends of creativity to use this app...such as having a way to record the sounds a then creating a software instrument in another app using the sounds. That process would be too tedious. This app could be so much better and really opened up with improved controls. For example, add midi in for better keyboard control of the sounds. Add a settings button that offers playability options such as turning on background audio so that the app can play in the background. These options would easily take the app from low to high ratings.

Good sounds bad app
All the sounds are pretty good but there is bad latency, and most of the sounds don’t sustain like they are just a quick sample. Very sorry I paid .99 cents for this.
2017-09-16
Hope this gets better!
--Most of the sounds seemed like one-shot samples and would be unusable at least for me. I think I see why there weren't any videos with sounds on them.

Sounds are Great!
The sounds are great, would be a 5 star if keyboard action is less sluggish but I think Jorge will fix it! -AprilRox Studios, LLC (Recording Engineer)

Sounds are huge but
I got the full version which is great sounding but the interface is sluggish as is the keyboard . We will see if this gets that addressed .This could be awesome for a live sound bank to use on stage.peace Christo

Not very thought out.
This app is almost maddening. I have tried to work with it but it just does not want to make life easy. Please beware if you are shelling out dough. Pass this app. The glide is always on. No way of turning of. There is a very hard to use scrolling menu,now the sliders for the synth are on this scrolling menu. So when you go to slide levels up or down it ends up scrolling the menu. Ahhh. You have to hold down for a while. Then you can move the sliders. If you move too soon them the menu moves not the slider. Now I am no synth expert. I have had my fair share of vst synths and many other hardware/software keyboards and synths. I could not tune a sound worth listening to out of this app. I could make mild warbles maybe some beeps and bloops but everything sounds discordant. It has a few nice features that I wished other apps would use. Like a record function. I didn't even use it. Couldn't come up with any sound worth recording. Next there is a nice selection of drum pads. They sound great. Maybe this app would have been better if the synth part got left out and they just sold it as a drum machine. There are a couple of house beats on two of the pads but they are just one bar of a loop. Bottom line is I tried. I really did. If you have better luck then more power to ya. If I paid for this app I would seriously be in an angered state. There you go. Take it for what it is. Man am I ready to delete this thing. fAIL.
