What a lovely instrument. Can I add more than 5 stars?
Bram / Hainbach,
This instrument is a literal blast to play with and explore sounds you’d never think of to make on your own. I know it’s technically an app, but it’s so playable, so musical.
I’m happy to know there’s still iOS Apps being developed utilizing the touch screen format in this fun/intuitive way. It’s how apps should be on these touch screen devices. Well done.
I nearly fell off my bed when I shook the app and everything bounced around. Brilliant!
Can’t wait to see if another collab comes out! If so, maybe Nuclear Drums? Atomic Loops?
I don’t know what that means or what I’m saying. But it’s staying on this comment. If that brings any inspiration then dope!
Thank you for this and again, well done! Cheers.

I Scared Myself
Used this in conjunction with the Rozeta midi sequencer suite particularly the Particles & Collider plug ins. Started working on a cold dark September morning making my own horror flick soundtrack then had to stop because it was so realistic I freaked myself out.
Fluss is cool
I recently discovered using it as an input processor effect, and we tried it on my friends violin. We got the coolest lush shimmer going. Definitely worth having for granular opportunities.
An incredibly unique app
This is a tool to use with other tools as a control surface,a sampler, and a highly intuitive granular synthesis musical instrument... Please keep making your apps. Your designs are Absolutely Amazing!!!!!
iPhone 12 Betaware!
Update: Actually, it DOES NOT. It says import wave files standalone and AUv3. That’s a long way from stating that it’s an AUv3 instrument ONLY and has broken features because of small-minded designers. Don’t worry, I won’t waste my money on your products in the future. ———— Terribly hard to read on iPhone 12. Actually, impossible to read. Genetic defect in all developers to use too small to ‘comfortably’ read. It’s called eyestrain. There’s plenty on room to use readable font. It won’t play in the background and it resets to default settings if put in the background! Junk designed on the iPhone! Apparently standalone mode can’t play audio in the background and has no setting even, at least that I can find. Nor is such in the embarrassing dumb design, the cheap block of pages like found in cheap $30 DVD box. Search is next to useless, dah! And, again, it’s too small. iPhone UI wastes way too much space. As far as iPhone 12 this is betaware and embarrassing poor design. Sound experimentation with granular sound synthesis is very good as is the quality of presets provided. But for iPhone 12 UI design, is very lacking. Very embarrassing from what was a fairly reliable group. Not anymore.

Response from developer
This app was made to be used as an Audio Unit plugin, as is clearly stated in the App description. In standalone mode it is perfectly usable for making presets, but it is optimised to be part of a plugin setup. This is what the UI is designed and optimised for. In fact, it does import wave files in standalone. I’m not sure why you’re claiming it does not.

Very awesome app can you Please add recording ability from the internal microphone
A very intuitive granular
Fluss works, at least for me, because like so much of Hainbach’s corpus, it’s grounded in tactile concepts: rebounding particles, tape loops, slow, slow, SLOW time. If that’s what you’re after, it’s a great tool for creating evolving spatial and temporal textures.
That said, I can’t give it five stars because of a GLARING (to me anyway) flaw: it stops playing audio if you put it in the background. This means I can’t use an external plugin (like Lines or Filterjam, or BlindEQ) along with it, and that’s exactly what I want to do with it. That said, if you aren’t looking to multitask with it on the ipad, it’s a great means to that glitchy but also soft focus sound.

it’s great
yes, sounds wonderful
Very Impressive (after exploring)
Initially I was not impressed by this. Usually I am underwhelmed, as an iphone developer, by gimmicky new ways to slide your fingers across the “no-so-precise” touchscreen of apples generalized 40pxl radius to work with. This usually makes it so apps like this are good in theory or on paper but not so great in experience.
No so with Fluss. I was going about my initial use of this all wrong, trying to maintain consistent control instead of letting go. This tool will help you let the process just flow or .. fluss. Good Job from Bram and bach with this one.

Beautiful app, I wish I could use it in my DAW
I love playing around with this amazing app. The sounds they give you to use are great. That said, I wish I could incorporate this easily into my Logic workflow (yea, I know there are ways but it all seems quite complicated to be honest). Any chance we could get a plugin version of this?
Response from developer
Hi there, thanks for the review. Well, Fluss actually is a plugin already. You can use the Audio Unit version in any iOS DAW/host - both as an instrument and as a live effect.
