--Is amyone besides me using this combination? If so is it ever remotely working for you? I have a lot of synth apps that work perfectly with this but the PPG just goes crazy and won't shut off until I disable the app.
I've written PPG a couple of times and got one response that said that I needed to get the "midi specs" from Griffin, what does this mean? I don't know and neither does Griffin. Midi IS a spec!
The app is unusable for me and so far a wasted $20.00, I'm glad to see others doing well with it. I don't want to have to buy a special iPad and controller just for this app even though I do have a Line 6 Midi Mobillizer that I replaced with the Griffin (the Griffin recharges the iPad and is pretty cool).

Thanks for posting. I am always on the fence with more expensive iOS apps and this tells me to put my trigger finger away from ordering this until more positive reviews occur. Hopefully the PPG guys are listening.

---The guy I spoke to with PPG (online) actually got a little snippy with me when I asked why I needed to be the one to get the "midi specs" instead of the company that sold me the app because I was afraid they'd ask questions I couldn't answer and then we'd be going back and forth forever with one side or the other asking me questions they knew the answers to. It was late on a saturday night so ordinarily the person is probably very nice and helpful. I haven't heard back from them though so I have an app I can't use...

There is an update coming ... hopefully it fixes MIDI issues (I am also experiencing issues with a yamaha xm1). it is a 1.0.0 release version ... so, hopefully we will see quite some updates, new features and fixes.Scott Murrell wrote:---The guy I spoke to with PPG (online) actually got a little snippy with me when I asked why I needed to be the one to get the "midi specs" instead of the company that sold me the app because I was afraid they'd ask questions I couldn't answer and then we'd be going back and forth forever with one side or the other asking me questions they knew the answers to.

I like wavegenerator a lot, though I also have issues with it right now. but too early to judge. The sound at least is great which is also quite important.

Hmm, stuff like that puts black marks on people and companies. Not a good start.Scott Murrell wrote:---The guy I spoke to with PPG (online) actually got a little snippy with me when I asked why I needed to be the one to get the "midi specs" instead of the company that sold me the app because I was afraid they'd ask questions I couldn't answer and then we'd be going back and forth forever with one side or the other asking me questions they knew the answers to.

---They replied to my help request today and dont' seem to find the other request but hopefully this will get resolved so I can use this. I think it will be a very good synth once a few bugs get worked out and as mentioned the update is coming soon so we'll see.
