Description
Pure Acid is a top quality bassline synthesizer and drum machine in one app! Inspired by classic hardware bassline synthesizers and rhythm machines, which changed musical world back in 80's, like the legendary TB-303 synthesizer, TR-808 / 707 / 909 rhythm boxes and their numerous replicas, Pure Acid is designed to bring back the feeling of retro analog gear in every detail in terms of sound, as well as to provide new functions previously unavailable in the original devices to make your music creation workflow fast and fun! A large number of factory preset patterns will immerse you into an exciting world of Acid House, Techno, Hardcore and Big Beat music genres, which will inspire you to create your own basslines and rhythms for your compositions!
You can use Pure Acid app as a ready-to-go realtime musical instrument (groove box) in your jam sessions together with Ableton Link to synchronize it with the rest of your music gear. Its bassline editing system and randomization options will be handy to create unique groovy basslines easily. Realtime master effects with XY-pad controls can add expression to your live performance. You can also use Pure Acid with AudioBus, AUM or other IAA-supporting apps to create complex and interesting sound setups.

Version history
1.5.4
2023-03-30
- Fixed: Ableton Link was not working in the network between Ableton Live and Pure Acid on the newest iOS versions;
- AUv3: Midi In Channel settings bug fixed. Previously, audio units always had [Bass: Any, Drums: 10] Midi In channel setting. Now it corresponds to what you set in the standalone's global Midi In Channel settings (Settings menu);
- now you can Paste a bassline (or drums) pattern into a new pattern slot during playback right before jumping to that slot. It is helpful during live playback if you want to create several bassline (or drums) patterns by copying one to another without interrupting the playback. All you have to do is tap the destination pattern slot, and then quickly tap the Paste button right before the cursor jumps to that pattern slot.

1.4.3
2020-11-17
In this update:
- a quick fix for iPhone 12 Pro Max display resolution support;
In previous 1.4.2 update:
Introducing step conditions in the drum sequencer! Now you can assign step conditions to various drum steps while in Step Edit mode to make your drum patterns more live and diverse! Just tap a step (or hold it) and rotate the data knob to assign desired step condition to selected step.
A list of step conditions used:
-> CPY (copy previous condition result);
-> 1st (play step only once at the first pattern's run, useful for e.g. Crash Cymbal);
-> 10-90% (sets probability of this step playback);
-> X:Y (e.g. 2:4 means play step during each 2nd repeat of every 4 repeats of the pattern);
-> stripe/exclamation marked conditions mean inversion of the condition result.
Also in this update:
• bug fixed in multi-output AUv3: when sending midi data to Pure Acid's Midi Input, the sound of the non-master busses was distorted;
• now you can set AUv3 to open initially with a blank preset instead of an Init pattern by changing in standalone Settings -> General -> "Load AUv3 with" setting;
• some factory presets were modified to include new step condition feature;
• 5 new factory pattern presets added;
• standalone midi output: slide notes overlapping increased a bit;
• Audiobus and Ableton Link SDK updated to the latest versions;
• minor bug fixes and iOS 14 support.

The Ultimate Acid Trip
It’s all right here folks. No need to look any further if you want a premium dose of high quality acid app coding. I’ve tried a lot of emulations and also the real deal. This tops it all for the most fun and comprehensive all-in-one self contained experience.
The sound is full and warm with definition and detail. The sequencer is a real treat. The scale modes and variation/shuffle function is excellent. It plays well with other apps and I’m going to try and sequence my TD-3 with Pure Acid in the next day or so.
I can’t believe I didn’t know about this until a couple days ago. Better late to the party than never. My only minor and petty niggle is that you can’t change the custom colors for the main 303 knobs. If that’s the only gripe I have then this app is near perfect. I can’t keep it closed.

lightchazer84,
Great for Beginners and Veterans
I am a beginner in the iOS music production world. I really got frustrated with many apps, trying to make synths work with certain DAWs, trying to get something started and enjoy myself in the process.
This app delivers exactly what I want! It’s super intuitive and compact. So I find myself learning while I can actually have sort of a live jam session, or even program nice drum patterns with ease.
Now the sound of the Bass in this is App is a certain kind of sound from earlier Acid House Days, or maybe Chemical Brothers come to mind. But there are swing options which make for a whole different vibe if needed.
If you are a beginner, or if you are familiar with iOS music production, either way you should not miss out on this. Tons of fun!!

THE_ONLY_GOD,
HORRIBLY crappy app logo and icon on an app that is otherwise generally likable
So f’ing tired of that retardly crappy app icon and logo. Would be SOOOOOOOOOOO easy for the software engineer making the app to remove that from the GUI and also easy these days to make an alternative icon option in the app prefs. (Suggest a normal smiley face without any “edginess” as most ravers (absolutely the main potential customers) aren’t “edgy” in that way unless they had family issues that need to be addressed through a healing process or need to go to rehab).
If the app maker foolishly believes an “edgy” icon will attract some “edgy” younger customers, he is SEVERELY naive and obviously hasn’t heard that mumble rap is the “edgy” music choice of the face tattooed “edgy” younger customers that prefer to pirate apps anyway. This app doesn’t make 808 bass melodies, so is also relatively useless for that genre.

Fantastic TB-303 Suite
I remember back in 1996 (or 1997?) being blown away by a new program called Rebirth 338 by Propellerhead. I could not believe how a piece of software could capture so well the vibe of real analog gear. Well Pure Acid just gave me that same feeling! Kudos to the developer!!
Pure Acid is the best TB-303 emulator on IOS! It comes with classic drum sounds, killer effects, authentic sound and 303 sequencer mayhem! It is simply the complete package to cover almost all your Acid base-line needs. Pure Acid is also so much easier to program and allows for the easy generation of new riffs. Works with Ableton sync and IAA. Works on IPad and IPhone. AU3 is the only other wish list item that is needed. Just download it already.

Wakeupdreaming,
My face is melting. (in the BEST possible way)
I have yet to scratch the surface with this thing; completely blown away thus far. The sounds are great, the beats are great, and the 303 is gorgeous.
Just beginning? Try this: go to the mixer page. At the top left is the play button. Push that. Up pops a groove and a bassline.
Tweak knobs. play with the effects. experiment turning the bassline or drums on and off to build tension.
Getting tired of that bassline? Bring up the bassline page. tap the grid where the notes lighting up as each step goes by. WHen you tapped, a bunch of options pop up. Just tap one of those buttons, and the pattern is instantly reworked, in the same key at the same tempo. Instant break. Now hit Undo... and you are back to the original track.
This thing is SO EASY AND FUN AND GOOD. Much love to the developer, A+++. Might send back the TD-3... not sure I need it now.

Getting tired of that bassline? Bring up the bassline page. tap the grid where the notes lighting up as each step goes by. WHen you tapped, a bunch of options pop up. Just tap one of those buttons, and the pattern is instantly reworked, in the same key at the same tempo. Instant break. Now hit Undo... and you are back to the original track.
This thing is SO EASY AND FUN AND GOOD. Much love to the developer, A+++. Might send back the TD-3... not sure I need it now.

Pure (controllable) Crazy!
Very VERY fun! At first glance it seems like it’s gonna take and hour long video or a lengthy sit down with the manual. But I learned enough to have a blast just by poking around. It’s broad and deep and is perhaps the most fun live performance app in iOS! The ability to regenerate the melodic sequence is my favorite aspect. You can choose any combo of variables: note, gate, scale, key, then regenerate on the fly, reverse, shift, vary and undo it all to revert back to a base melody.
It’s really all that - just buy it already!

Dj Jiggz,
Fun app for parties and Djing
The sequencer is top notch and should be included on every app, plugin, hardware sequencer ever made. I love how the drums can be tuned. This is the kind of app that I just love to play with because its fairly simple and has some really cool features (as mentioned above, plus really cool FX). Id definitely use it for Djing and I love to throw it on while partying. Friends love it too, even non-musician friends want it. I throw it on during work outs too lol.

Completely in love right now
Had just an amazing 2 hours ripping through this and will pop it into Cubasis 3 soon to get in even more trouble.
My only request is for this to be ported over to the desktop so I can run it natively in Logic Pro!
By far one of the most well executed AUv3s I’ve ever seen and I’ve been making music on iOS since 2012.

TheRealDutchee,
Absolutely fantastic!
Super happy with this app. Making grooves with this app is a breeze and incredible fun. I got a lot of different grooveboxes and drummachines, but none of them are as much fun as this app. Grab this little gem and you will not regret it, that is a promise 😎👍 Already amazing as it is now, but looking forward where the developer is going to take this with future updates. Super duper!!! 🤩🤗 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
theriveryeti,
Great test area for baselines and drumbeats
Intuitive way to get a song or groove started. I get confused by a lot of these apps easily but this one makes so much sense. I’ll write in it and then midi out to the synth and patch that works best. Tiny complaint that it doesn’t support the Mininova (yet), but still an almost perfect app.
