Mac app or desktop version plsss🤓

Still one of the best resonators out there!

No longer functions as a plugin instrument in any host

Doesn’t appear in AUM or Cubasis or anything

Futile app

When used alone without any auxiliary connection, there's excessive static noise. However, when speakers are connected, the microphone is automatically disabled, rendering it useless.

Latency is an issue

I just bought this, tried it for hand drumming on a 1st gen IPad Pro, and there’s very significant latency. I haven’t tried it yet as an effect, hopefully that won’t have any latency problems.

Genius

Loved tassman 4 in 2003 now finally have similar resonant control on ios🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

Simply Awesome

Awesome app that sounds great and easy to navigate.
You can use it as an effect on an instrument you play to further modulate it’s sound; great with hand percussion, providing lots of sonic textures to explore.

Simple, efficient, fun as a plug-in effect too

Makes a simple slap, tap or finger click into any number of percussive instruments. Have been using it with Multitrack DAW app as a plug-in, then adding some reverb or shimmer.

I thought I’d try it just for a bit of fun but I’ve realised that it’s way more useful to generate a variety of instruments. I have several AAS VST plug-ins that I use with Ableton so this fits right in.

Really nice app for experiments

Just add it in AUM or another host as AUv3 effect and enjoy with acoustic experiments when using drum machines or noise samples. Or use external input and play on your table. Like it!

A brilliant effect, with some caveats

First off I want to say that this is a brilliant idea.

Secondly I want to clarify what it is and what it isn’t. It is an audio effect, so it takes the audio coming in, and applies filters to it to make it resonate in cool ways.

What it isn’t: it isn’t a VSTi that generates sounds that are triggered by vibration.

There are some serious limitations. The main problem is feedback.

Because of the feedback problem you can not process live mic input AND listen to it on speakers at the same time. If you use live mic input then you MUST use headphones to listen. Or if you want to hear the output on speakers then you can not use a live mic as input.

Great Idea

Great Idea!
But its not working on Audiobus3

Excellent for drummers,percussionist.

basically some physically modeled resonators modules. Bang on anything or using drumsticks, brushes, whatever. Best used in a audio unit compatible host like aum, cubasis cuz u can use other fx in realtime.

Great idea but a bit low in volume

Triggering from a drum pad into my iPad but the volume in this app is too low

Absolutely Fantastic

I bought this and within 20 minutes I was finger drumming on my tabletop making the coolest sounds thru my iPads mic. After that, I used Audiobus with my own app GeoShred and some drum loops as a source to achieve awesome results! So great to see AAS enter the app space. The music fun on iOS just keeps getting better!
Anybody who loves making music needs an iPad (and this cool app!)

No AU in Cubasis or Garageband

After installing and trying the standalone app, I was excited to record a track into Cubasis. Since the description of the app specifically said it works with Cubasis as an AU, I thought this was a no brainer. Go into Cubasis, try to add the AU...and it’s not in the AU list. So, let’s try GarageBand. Go to External...add Audio Unit extensions...no Objeq in that AU list either. So AAS while I love you...it looks like you messed up on the AU implementation. Also, I’ve tried adding as an audio effecct in both Cubasis and Garage Band. It doesn’t show up under Insert Effect in Cubasis or under Plugins & EQ in Garage Band.

Latency

Running a new iPad Pro, even with a restart, no WiFi, bluetooth or any other apps running, there is latency which essentially renders the app useless. If they fix that issue then it’ll be great though

Good, but...

I like the sound, but can’t figure out how to send it pitch or cc values. That would make it great

Completely inaccessible with VoiceOver

I am a blind musician and audio engineer. Our use many iOS applications with quite a bit of success. However, objeq is completely inaccessible with voiceover. Nothing at all is spoken. The only way I can use it is the turn voiceover off, and just drag up and down at different portions of the screen, without really knowing what I am adjusting. I hope that this can be fixed.

Awesome

Very fun app! I hope they add a way to combine some of the sounds. Being able to designate the right hand as a bass drum and a left hand as a snare would be sweet. Worth the money for sure!

An instant purchase

It’s really great to see Applied Acoustics Systems emerge in the iOS music audio app scene. I own every AAS Physically Modeled VST instrument, and they are all amazing works of art. I’m very excited to start experimenting with Objeq iOS in my current projects.

Bel outil d’impro rythmique :)

Utiliser un plugin et transformer les ibidules en instruments percussifs : voila une idée qu’elle est bonne :)
A expérimenter sans modération !
