This app supports Audio Unit and Inter-App Audio for audio & MIDI connections from/to other audio apps, as well as Bluetooth LE MIDI !
iSymphonic Orchestra was designed with the goal to deliver you superb, extremely realistic and stunning orchestra sounds, instantly with the first key being pressed by you on your MIDI keyboard. Just select a sound and you are ready for your live performance or for a boost of creativity while composing new songs. The sounds used in this app were explicitly recorded to fulfill these requirements and involved several months of recording and post processing under supervision of Kurt Ader and included a variety of innovative, new recording techniques. So far these sounds were only available to very few, famous movie composers. Now they are finally available for the first time to everybody. The supreme quality of these sounds, combined with the unique way they were recorded and assembled, gives us confidence that you haven't heard anything comparable as of to date, even not on Mac or PC.

Absolutely Stellar
I use this app constantly on literally all my projects. It's an indispensable part of my workflow, whether I'm working on acoustic guitar tracks, basslines, synths, piano melodies, or even intense heavy metal jams. The flexibility is incredible. I can easily run multiple instances in AUM to layer sounds across different instruments. I specifically use it with other apps like Synth Guitar 2, and it does an amazing job enhancing my guitar tones. If you're looking for a versatile, powerful, and reliable sound app that works great on everything from orchestral arrangements to rock, this is it. I absolutely love what it can do!

Nice BUT
Very little control over attack, attenuation, and delay. Also BEWARE: This app “explodes” at times with a loud distortion that will knock you off your seat. Its random occurrence dismisses the app from being used in live performance. Stay away from it.
