2023 gadget 2 needs major fixes and a serious upgrade

Korg needs to totally update Gadget! It is crashing on my silicon Mac Studio and iPad Pro silicon constantly and can’t even send midi clock out to my interface to sync my hardware ( only midi note data out ) of TAIPEA with any method or gadget ! And the desktop version can’t even allow saving of user patches yet! ? This daw should behave like any other and at the very least by now should be able to host third party plugins or KORGS own synths hardware but it can’t without proper midi support. Try recording a vocal the length of a song on iOS within gadget you’ll see what I’m talking about ! And they have known about this for several months now but keep claiming they can’t reproduce the issue even after I sent them video and crash reports. Claiming you can’t replicate a problem is the oldest one in the book! And if the are that incompetent that’s even worse than being crooks . It’s been way to long since this daw has been given a thorough update way way overdue from a company this big . Shame on korg! Stop rebranding synths and charging for expensive sound libraries on a seriously neglected Daw that I love and am not happy about what I don’t see happening with this company at all . Oh and the tutorials are horrible and the support is even worse! Hope this helps ! I love Gadget and if korg took it seriously it would crush all the others but they are being irresponsible parents to put it mildly! 👽🫤

Obsessed. My most used music app on iOS!

I can’t possibly review every in app purchase I’ve made. I love gadget, but ultimately I wish it had more full daw features. Cubasis and Auria pro are more for that work. This app isn’t really for tracking multiple instruments for more than 16 bars. I hate swapping apps though so I mostly stay in gadget... or don’t use it at all. The base package of sounds allows for loads of stuff to get you started, but you might want to pick some of the extra in app purchases to fill out your palate of styles. I recommend Bilbao, Kamata, and Gladstone to name a few. Everything goes on sale regularly for the summer so hold out money’s tight. The sounds that come out of here are so good your brain will EXPLODE! Now that I’ve lost my mind, I have a few ideas for features like add a lyric gadget that lets you do karaoke style lyrics. Custom Pads with an arp like beatmaker 3 would be nice. Using bm3 as midi into gadget is not great as the timing seems to suffer occasionally. Bm3 allows a for a hardware pad to be bound to the bm3 apps pad (focus actions). Allowing a hardware pad midi note to be bound this way allows for scales to be input easily via another menu, along with an arpeggiator. I bring my iPad everywhere because of this app!!!

Astonishing

Astonishing ease of use, astonishing complexity and deep visual editing of any parameter. + Pairing with korg hardware controllers with instant setup. And dont get me started on V3 I’ve produced many many tracks with 1&2 had my old favorite synths at my finger tips along with the iconic sounds of the M1 resampled into other gadgets. But v3 isnt just a pretty reskinning. The interface weirdnesses have been reworked to allow THE BEST experience and SOUND of dance music production I’ve ever had in any DAW IOS or Desktop. The only small gripes are the long form recording of an entire vocal. And lack of pitch correction (pitch shift is covered) for the same.

Small concerns: Regarding the 6.00 version update. in the new loop sampler theres a small bug in the output sometimes that produces a high pitch whining tone after playing a user sample. There might be some way to warn users of an IPADs CPU and memory use for using too many effects plugins which eventually if you are a greedy user with massive track effects added will crash the playback.
