I’m giving TAL’s Juno 60 emulator 5 stars because I was able to replicate patches from my vintage Juno 60. To have my custom Juno 60 patches portable on the iPad is just astounding. Yes, there are minor tonal differences, but considering that I’m working within the limitations of the iPad audio out and, taking into consideration that there’s a certain full round warm quality to the Juno that is not replicable digitally, this app is still astounding. Only thing that could be improved is that the faders jump when starting to move them. A “soft takeover” on the faders is needed instead of a jump. Although’ to be fair, this is what happens on the real thing. It would be a nice feature though. As a vintage Juno 60 owner, I’m blown away.

This port of Tal is absolutely amazing. It sounds great, it’s very lightweight on resources, and has a nice clean ui. Since presets work on both the desktop and iOS version, there are many free and paid patches/patch banks available online, including at the Tal website. Typically those are main things I look for in an AU synth, and Tal ticks all those boxes. I’ve been doing the iOS music thing a long time now and Tal is one of my favorite and most used synth apps. I have recommended it to others many times, and will continue to sing its praises. Recent update added some nice features. Great Stuff.

A few minor UI things could be ironed out in future updates but even if they never were I would still give this a 10/10 because all that matters is the sound and this synth is one of the best. I just checked my iOS synth folder and I have 74 iOS synths. All the best ones money can buy and this is without question in the top 3. If you guys bring Tal-Bassline to iOS I’ll buy it twice just to say thanks. The 101 is my favorite synth and there is no better recreation than Tal-Bassline. Thanks again to all involved with bringing this to us.
