Phasemaker for Negative User Reviews

✓ Could be lots better in my opinionFirst observation is that the plain keyboard takes up half the screen on my iPad unnecessarily, that could be better used for a larger control area and controls. Wasting space for the 'All Active' indicator. On top of that, they've wasted space all around the control section that should be used to spread out and enlarge the controls. Keys could be 1/3 shorter since their length doesn't modulate the note or anything. Needs a key or note hold/ latch feature. Key width should be adjustable. Even though it can make some some unusual sounds, they have no real presence. So far there is nothing here that really excites me like there is with Poison 202, ROTOR, and several others do..EriptronVersion: 1.0

✓ Not ready for live performanceSynth sounds great and has deep midi, but jams up easily with a lot of midi traffic. I hook it up to an arpeggiator and quickly the polyphony goes up to 25+ and it starts spewing loud digital distortion that wont turn off when I press the panic button. Most synths impose their own limits on polyphony, I don't know why this one doesn't. (Edit: phasemaker does limit itself at 32 voices, but should provide control to lower this limit for old devices) I know I could make sure my notes don't have too much release and limit the notes I send, but I don't want to be live tweaking fm params and have this screw up. I really wanted to use this in my live rig but I can't trust it so it will go unused..DisblissVersion: 1.3

✓ Total waste of $10Wasted $10 on this buggy crap. Hangs every other minute on some chord and nothing I do gets it to stop except shutting the app off entirely..Proteus-ixVersion: 1.0

✓ Doesn't even startImmediately crashes.PencilTestVersion: 1.0

✓ GUI issues on latest updateNew GUI is way too small on an iPhone SE. Text is too small to read. Now app is practically unusable..Lordkimbo29Version: 1.3.9

✓ Zzzz totally uninspiringLame presets, in a poor viewer, uncatagorised, so you go from a base preset obviously used in a low octave to one designed for a higher octave plus the fact that it's so difficult to press the octave buttons, it almost never detects me touching them, I want to be able to switch octaves without hardly looking not tapping it 10 times while staring at it. And what a waste of space the whole thing is. In the screenshots on the description page it shows the UI full screen however I have the same size phone and the UI is microscopic. Just annoying and boring and not the same as the picture..SsuspicioussVersion: 1.3.9

✓ Crashes on key pressAnytime I press a key, it crashes. Wish I could use it. Using iPad Air iOS 15..J .WhiteVersion: 1.3.9

✓ Only one preset?The only preset seems to be 80s piano and that’s it. Why not call it that if that’s all it is?.Jemmy1955Version: 1.3.9

✓ Only 100 presets?Look I’m not looking to create my own sounds. I have real hardware for that. I thought this would have at least 500 sounds but it has 100 average sounds..AcPittproVersion: 1.3.7

✓ Being Phased Out?Underwhelmed, I sit here with an app in front of me that first and foremost does not even fit in the space of a modern iPhone screen. This app is obviously designed for a much older device and apparently needs updating. However, be warned if you do provoke a response from said developer (Bram Bos), he will defensively pronounce the app as perfectly complete in and of itself. Needless to say the app has a whopping 103 FM sound patches to work with that can only be accessed once you have figured out how to work around the bug riddled interface. For example, they wont appear on an iphone 13 pro max until you have selected user bank and then back to factory. But again, not worth reporting to the dev because he will claim that you just want to criticize him and not appreciate his hard work. Some devs just shouldn’t do their own customer support. I digress..EthanGrossVersion: 1.3.9
