Bulent, can we use iaps purchased in the player here with Synth Master One?

The program opens and works now but I’m not able to download all of the IAPs that I previously purchased. It wants me to pay for them again and I don’t want to try and get charged again.

SynthMaster One only has 1 IAP. But on the IAP page we display IAPs for SynthMaster Player as well.I will add a new filter to show SM1 IAPs by default in the next update

No, they are not compatible across SM1 and SMP apps.

As MobileMusic pointed out, SynthMaster 2 (Player) and SynthMaster One are separate products so their presets are not interchangeable.

If everything goes as planned, we'll have SynthMaster 2 iOS released this year, and following the release of SynthMaster 3 desktop at the end of the year, next year we'll work on SynthMaster 3 iOS as well. SynthMaster 3 will be able to load SynthMaster One presets as layers as well, as long as the user has a license for SynthMaster One.

@kv331audio_bulent, hi! In case you missed my previous messsage: there is strange behaviour in MPE mode (tested on iphone x and ipad pro) Per-note bend works only up:
https://share.icloud.com/photos/0cudG6uXXuPH9bmshGvka3NBg

Is it a bug or a feature?

Are you running v1.3.5? I remember fixing that bug in 1.3.5

Yeah, I had latest TestFlight build. 1.3.5 works great! Thank you 🙏

Why? Please make sure you always have the latest AppStore version, we sometimes skip releases on TestFlight.

Any luck investigating the broken BM3 automation? Just wondering if I should jump ship.

I'm still clearing up my administrative tasks that piled up because of the NAMM Show, I'm hoping to start coding tomorrow.

The last key in the lower keyboard on iPhone 6s does not work - no sound. This provides some overlap of a couple of keys on top keyboard if it is resolved.

FYI, Warren Burt at SoundBytes Music Magazine just reviewed SynthMaster One iOS v1.3, check it out folks!

"KV331 Audio has been developing desktop synths for almost a decade now. Just recently, they released version 1.3 of Synthmaster One for iOS, and with this version, they finally nailed it, producing an incredibly powerful and good sounding synth that delivers the goods it promised in previous versions, and then some."

Please allow us to filter Public presets in the Browser with its own Public Presets bank. Currently, there is no way to see which presets got downloaded from public library.

Tapping "Online" button already does that, i.e. shows public presets only.

Doesn’t quite fit on my iPhone SE screen.

Please wait for v1.3.6 update!

Clear / Remove Modulation does not work (tap on a knob that has modulation and choose these menu options but modulation persists)

Which knobs? Some modulations can not be removed, like filter cutoff <-> mod env entries.

kv331audio_bulent

Guys, I created the TO-DO items for v1.3.6, and also added the following 2:

1. Add release velocity as a new modulation source
2. Add MIDI channel number as a new modulation source: This will be very helpful for MIDI Guitar aware presets! (We'll be partnering with Fishman soon!)

Tones4Christ

Awesome
So far the synth has been rock solid for me! I love it and it’s one of my very favorites!

@kv331audio_bulent, On iPhone X lfos images are sometimes missing

In aum full screen view shows this version

@kv331audio_bulent I registered with the same name/email on iphone and ipad but after “sync my presets with cloud” I dont see presets from ipad on a phone. Maybe I misspelled email on one of devices but I dont see how to check it or how to login again with correct email.

Could you PM me your full name and email address ?

p.s.
@kv331audio_bulent
Just the suggestion.

This one is pretty nice, and enough for 12'9 (in my own opinion):

Maybe it is better to stay on it while the "large" UI is in progress?
It is quite enough. I like it.

Ah, just realized you wrote "AU automation don't work" in your AppStore review, and thanks for rating us 2/5!!!

Can you please give more details on this problem? What are the steps to reproduce the issue?

kv331audio_bulent

@roman_ch said:
This UI size Number 4 is the view that BM3 try to fit by default.
BM3 is never switch to layout Number 2 on 12'9 iPad

Only Number 4, and UI size Number 3. Both have problems.

@kv331audio_bulent Hope this helps.

Please give me an example of another synth that CAN fit in ALL four cases without any issues. So that I can try to implement some sort of autolayout.

1. Automation in BeatMaker3 doesn't work as before after the last January updates. ( 1.3.5, 1.3.4)
2. The UI for the iPad 12'9 screen sizes is buggy. In my previous messages on this forum, I described this UI problem completely in many previous posts. - UI has problems in AUM, UI has problems in BeatMaker3, and in the GarageBand. I sent screenshots there (last post on the page):
   https://forum.audiob.us/discussion/36602/synthmaster-one-v1-3-universal-live/p2
   I was ignored.

Next I put screens here:
https://forum.audiob.us/discussion/36602/synthmaster-one-v1-3-universal-live/p6

You answered about GB sizes, but SM One has buggy UI in GB too, there are also screens attached.

@kv331audio_bulent said:
I'm sorry for this BUT we can NOT support each and every DAWs custom size (especially in a $19 app which has really low sales despite all of our efforts at the expense of frustrating our SynthMaster users). They must adapt to at least GarageBand sizes.

The automation.

Automation had stopped to work in BM3 without any warnings on the Appstore January Updates.
It doesn't work anymore in Beatmaker 3 as before.
It is an unexpected and destructive change for work-in-progress projects.

If developer decides to change something totally (it doesn't matter "indexes" to ID's" as you changed in last updates) if changes broke users work, it is not bad to warn users before updates. Or help them to roll-back.

@kv331audio_bulent said:

About "steps" there is a lot of information here. Please, re-read messages of AudioGus.
After the January updates, SM One AUv3 automation broke in BM3. I confirm.

Please, be patient and respectful to your customers.
Along with your messages, It looks like you have no plans to fix-back broken AUv3 automation for BM3 users, and it seems like you won't fix the UI bugs for 12'9.

This fixes are very important.
Your synth is great, but make it affordable and useful for all customers, please!

I will be happy to change my review completely, immediately after the fix.

I will put here screenshots of synths I have worked in 12'9 screen size, as you asked.
I can't do this right now, sorry. It needs time.

Our synth is already affordable, compare its feature set + content with other iOS synths.

As per Apple documentation on AUv3 parameter indexes (addresses) :

Parameter addresses are not necessarily persistent, unless the individual audio unit promises to maintain its addressing scheme. Hosts should bind to parameter key paths instead of parameter addresses.

I will go ahead and make parameter indexes compatible with v1.1, but that might break automation of projects created after v1.3...

On iPad, your email is on About tab located over the keyboard.

@kv331audio_bulent The about page with user info is missing on iPhone Settings or Help (accessible from tapping the logo on top left)

Wrong assumption for both cases.

Looking forward to your synth UI sample that works in all 4 cases.

Workaround: Click on "Download Bonus Presets" menu, user registration dialog will pop up, and will show current user name and email address.

Thanks for the interesting guide to Apple documentation, but how can it helps us?
**Can it return worked automation someway to us? **

Sorry for this example, but please look how SugarBytes warn their customers:
