Contact AudioKit Retro Piano Support

So far, you have cranked out some amazing simulations; and now this? If it’s a joke, it’s decidedly not funny. How about a real Rhodes sim, complete with that grimy sound one only gets from using an old electric piano that’s been sitting in the studio since the 1960s? That would make my summer, truly…

I’m really confused. Is this how you respond to negative comments? I’ll be brief. I wrote the original review because this release didn’t live up to your previous releases. I have been nothing short of astounded by synth one, d-1, and fm player are all literally breathtaking. Retro player is not, IMO. My response was relatively free of snarky comments; your response was not. Retro player needs work. It’s beyond belief that you would offer a racist comment in a review. Yes, comments that refer to a perceived mental deficiency is racist; we live in the 21st century. I’ll continue you try out, and in all probability use your creations; but you’ve lost all my respect. You’ll notice I’ve rereviewed player one. That as good as its going to get, barring an overhaul.

This seems like a work in progress... as if this is still in a beta form. I’ve experienced note drops while playing it with a midi controller.. I don’t believe it to be due to polyphony issues as I’m playing normal and not too aggressive nor with a foot pedal...
Also the volume on the patches are way too loud and distorted. Every time you choose a new patch, the main volume goes to max with some of them ...but all of them are still too loud so you’re constantly messing with the volume after each selection.. annoying.
Then comes the cracklings. i get the vinyl effect and I can dig that, but cpu crackles are distinct and you need to drive the buffer way up and still it happens.
Overall the sound of it is what is great about it and I’m sure after a few updates, (if they realize this is important) it should be an amazing tool in your AU arsenal amd I’ll be back here to re visit and edit my review.

Love the tones achievable on this app. Started playing on it as a stand-alone, got psyched to go record my idea in Garage Band, but no luck. It wont show up as an option in the audio unit extensions. I tried reinstalling the app and it still wont work. It shows up on my iPhone, but not on my iPad, and that’s what I use to record my music. Bummer. Any suggestions?
