## Review summary

Wilsonic is praised for its unique, educational take on Wilson’s microtonal scales, paired with an intuitive, visually rich UI. Reviewers note strong interoperability (Inter-App Audio) and the ability to export scales to tools like ScaleGen and AudioKit synths. However, users repeatedly request MIDI input/output and report stability issues—freezes, hanging notes, null errors, and non-functional exports. Overall, it’s a groundbreaking, inspiring tool for exploring non-12-tone tunings, with great potential once MIDI support and reliability are improved.

### Pros

- Innovative, educational exploration of Wilson’s microtonal scales.
- Intuitive, visually rich UI that makes complex microtonal concepts accessible.
- Strong interoperability with other apps and tools (IAA, Audiobus, ScaleGen, AudioKit synths) for workflow and scale export.
- Very positive, inspiring overall experience with great potential for future development.

### Cons

- Lacks MIDI input/output; users want MIDI support.
- Stability issues: freezes/hanging notes, null errors, and non-functional exports.
- Occasional readability/educational gaps (mode descriptions and some small text).
