Recent reviews

Besides the premier ones from actual synthesizer manufacturers, these apps are the only synthesizer apps worth purchasing in the App Store. They’re deep, comprehensive and come loaded with presets galore. They’re genuinely an anomaly among apps in the sense that they’re a great value for the money and are fully capable of professional production.
