Ribn App Reviews

If you have a creative musical bone in your body you’ll love this!

This app rocks. Works incredibly well if you know your way around MIDI or even if (like me) you don’t. I hooked it up to my Eurorack system using a Squarp Hermod via iConnectMIDI and via USB (both worked) and was able to modulate stuff without issues. Having that tactile interface is wonderful. If it can interface with my Eurorack, I’m not worried about it working with any of my other usage scenarios. Next thing to test would be using iPad and iphone simultaneously in one rig!

This app has been really stable so far and if you need anything like new features or encounter a bug the developer will respond immediately. Watch his YouTube channel too if you like synths, it’s called once upon a synth. Super cool dude.

It is a very nice app but I would love to see it fleshed out a bit more with more MIDI destinations (like pitch bend) and slider smoothing so that sliders do not jump when you tap them or at the end of a loop. The developer is obviously very creative and talented so I am excited to see what they come up with.

This app is awesome! So simple to use and such a great utility to have. The connectivity options are great. I’ve been using it with my eurorack which is awesome with such a small footprint running alongside my rack on my iPhone. At $2.99 this things a total steal and must have app. I also gotta say, the design is really nice and appealing. It’s just asking you to play with it.

It is easy and efficient It would be nice to be able to tap on the ribbon for sequencing in addition to continuous movement

I’ve only recently (re)discovered how far iOS has come in music making, and this is an essential tool! With the ease of assigning CC values to synth parameters in AUM, for example, Ribn gives me 8 modulators that I can set, or “draw” for looping variations, and easily change on-the-fly. It’s true that good things come in small packages because this simple little app does a wonderful job!!

Simple - intuitive - and incredibly powerful. I love it! UPDATE 2021: while I still make use of Ribn, I do wish it would receive a little maintenance... A little modernizing/updating? I'd gladly buy a new version that can be hosted as an AU; especially if one can record/store and recall automations between sessions. That would be an absolute dream. But at a minimum, I wish that it would preserve its state/config for more than what seems like twenty minutes. As I'm using it, switching back and

Wow. What an amazing app - I use this for my virtual Orchestration MIDI Mock-Ups and it increased my workflow exponentially within 5 minutes of use. A future feature that might be useful for the looping function would be to set a fixed looping speed and zones on the CC faders. This will help solve some clunkiness with consistent and smooth looping for users that might want a fixed/consistent looping rate and zone.

This app is an unreal bargain. I'm amazed at how easily it connected to Logic Pro. I love this, and there is no way you'll find anything better for this price. If you're reading this, buy this app. Absoluting no regrets! Thank you!

No Auv3 , but this is some gooooooooood stuff for midi cc recording. Stands the test of time

Please update to work with iOS 15, and AUv3 would be incredible!

A great app implementing a great idea. The problem with iOS updates is they break apps which you discover later on. I’m putting in my request to keep this one up to date.

Again, amazing! I have one feature request: PAUSE. It would be so lovely to pause all ribns at once. I know I can just create a tiny movement to mimic this but I don’t always have 8 fingers free. Thank you for the AMAZING MIDI CC LFO thingy!!!!!!!
