Core Synth Free App Reviews

Not a mind blowing app, but a surprisingly deep synth for free. Puts my real korg monotron to shame. Well it would if it could filter other sounds somehow... Anyway great monophonic synth. Yes, it can only play one sound at a time. Its supposed to be like an old analog synthesizer. Sounds very good

Dont waste your time with the free version. Sounds like a childs toy and can only play one note at a time. No way Im paying to try the full version.

Acts a lot like the Freeware VSTi plugins I use. Yes, it can only play 1 note at a time , but that is what a monophonic synth is, which is what it says it is in the description. The two oscillators have nice square, saw, and triangle patterns. I also love being able to bend the pitch with different keys on the board. The filter works well enough. There are two envelopes, one for the oscillators, and one for cutoff. Both were easy to use, and effective. While it would have been nice to have an LFO, you get what you pay for, I guess. Definitely worth a look!

Very fun!!!!!!!great sound!

An FREE app called mobilesynth is BETTER THAN THE FULL VERSION OF THIS APP! Someone called ken jeffords reviewned here before, saying about mobilesynth. I have it, ITS FREE, AND ITS NOT A LITE VERSION OR A DEMO, AND IT DONT HAVE ADS. GET MOBILESYNTH INSTEAD!

You know, placing adds on working zone (keys) is mean. I like the sound but I was annoyed by this outrageous thing...

I played tom sawyer on this and it sounded awesome!!!!!! eccept the ads are soo annoying. but still, AWESOME!!!

Please dont ever change it but leave this like this forever. Its the best thing to use. I love this app. Just leave this the way it is do not upgrade this app. It is beautiful.

When I push the keys it does not respond immediately VERY ANNOYING!!!! Please fix the issue!!

As a classical pianist and jammin synthesist, this iOS app enthralls me as its takes "Core Audio", the professional quality of OS power, and audio frameworks come to life for a plethora of sounds. What is cool here is a solid foundation building on a vision. Whats unfortunate is that it crashes iOS 8.1.3 in an iPad 2, while 2 dozen+ other synth apps dont. The other eye opener is the classic "freemium" model. One can make sounds and play midi input with the free version (only available one), but has to pay a $0.99 "pro fee" to get to what others rave about and anyone would want to use. These two items made me turn off iPhone apps on my iPad (still sold and supported for iOS 8). It also made me wary of what it might do to my iPhone. I dont want to use a review as a bug report, but encourage the creative and earnest developers to ensure its a hit everywhere so music apps like this thrive and inspire more. Take advantage of buffer sharing and connecting apps, like AudioCopy. Looking forward! Four stars to 5.

Takes at least a second to respond, if it responds at all. Could be a decent app if not for this glaring flaw.
