Bought this great app today (at last)…

Sounds great!

As an Synth addict it’s almost impossible to avoid buying new stuff…

Standalone or IAP for Pure Synth? They haven’t discounted the IAP yet so I’m anxiously awaiting to buy…

Standalone for me, although I’ve got Pure Synth also…

I usually only buy inside PSP because I like the blend the sounds to make my own patches but it’s not discounted (yet?) and I don’t want to buy twice. How much storage space did it take up for you? I think the other 2 ended up being around 25gb when all is said and done

11.5GB for this SY99/77 synth, and 28GB for the EX5 synth bought earlier from Jamal…

Just chiming in here......Would like to apologize to anyone who has felt slighted. Here are some very important takeaways from all of this:
1. Always wait for the OFFICIAL release of any product from the actual developer. That way you know exactly when a product is actually released
2. AppStore promotions and discounts work on a propagation system. Some countries see discounts before other countries and in some cases, the scheduled discounts don't propagate at the same time of the day, so some products don't see the discounts.
3. When in doubt of anything always allow the E-Mail system of the actual manufacturer website to be your #1 source of truth and not any forums, blogs, social media outlets, until it's officially stated from the manufacturer.

The reason why we do "soft" launches of our apps without an official statement or launch is because of point 2 above. Sometimes we do a launch and then we get people upset that it's not showing up in their country. Then if we do a soft launch, people are upset that the discounts are not propogating properly....Can't seem to win.....

Either way we understand your frustration and hope that Apple honors the refunds.

Thanks for chiming in here and responding. Love your apps and am definitely gonna be grabbing this one tonight.

i love these apps, but when streaming from HDD, there is an obvious lag in switching presets, and sometimes even loading the patches themselves. I'm assuming this is a streaming from HDD thing only.

Glad I forgot to purchase it yesterday (I thought I did), but luckily my ADHD came through for me and saved me 10 quid. 😂

Hey! Just wanted to drop in as a proud owner of both the SY77 and SY99 (recently sold the latter) and the fellow behind King of FM. I happily bought the TGX-99. What do I think? I think it's totally worth the $9.99, even if you're already jamming with King of FM. Playing around with the TGX sounds, you can tell GM poured their heart and soul into those samples - loving it big time. Sounds really great.

Plus, it's like 40lbs lighter than lugging around the actual hardware. If you have the hard drive space, and like the sounds in King of FM – I'd say jump on it. Now, who wants to buy my SY77? 😂

Expansion is the way to go
You don’t get iPhone version with stand-alone version

Very humble of you! I don’t have enough space in my iPad to buy right now but it’s gonna be first in my list when I get an SSD (or upgrade iPads). I’m glad King of FM has some of these sounds though. I use it all the time.

I think you need to buy the IAP first, then go to settings, and download. But regardless, Gav's right HotStrange. Get the IAPs while the sale is on! Ridiculously affordable but top quality as usual from @GospelMusicians

Man, I respect you even more as a dev (as if I didn't already respect you). I got King of Digital as well as the other King apps, Saga, SNESynth, etc. Keep up the excellent work!

Always the most obvious thing that I never think of 🤦🏻‍♂️ probably the best option. Never done that though, does it actually work? Will the App Store let you buy something that if you don’t technically have enough storage?

No idea but I reckon it would, and there's nothing to lose. If you paid for it you have the right to it, so I wouldn't worry!

True that. I’m probably gonna give it a shot tomorrow night after I get paid and see if it all goes well. Shame I won’t be able to use it until I get an SSD but that shouldn’t be too much longer.

I’m gonna watch Doug’s video first to see if I truly need it. Sound wise I’m sure it’s great but whether or not it does something far beyond what I already have, I’m not sure. I’ve been a lot more conscious about what I’m buying lately and I’m still split on this one, as much as I love the others.

Has anyone used the raw waveforms which are promised in the app description?

Not for this one in particular but I have for the other expansions, yes.
