Yay, great to hear that :)
Great Synth , needs a dedicated user manual!
Elastic OSC is a unique synth with intriguing sonic possibilities. I was intrigued enough to purchase the desktop app for MacOS as well as the IOS version for my iPad and iPhone, after playing with a dozen or so presets. The developers tout the instrument’s simplicity, but that is part of the genius of the software: you can poke around, jiggle the X/Y pads; change synth-engine types (there are 24 of them under the hood) slide the Morph or harmonics slider; draw animated mixes between LFOs (four of them), and too many other parameters to list. An onboard recorder will record and automate your moves. You can overdub automation and scrub your last pass if you need a do-over. Simple to use, but deeply complex under the hood. This is a wonderfully rewarding synth. There’s one big flaw, though: there is no user manual!
As easy as it is to get satisfying results, without a manual you are basically flying blind – maybe in this case, let’s say flying nearsighted. The only link to documentation is a link to Mutable Instruments’ Plaits synthesizer – which offers similar features, albeit with patch cords and hardware; the two synths are not identical. The onboard Help button carries a decent amount of detail, but little about application. For instance, clicking on Help for an oscillator type will list parameters, but little about accessing them for modulation. You can use a powerful 6-op FM synthesizer, but there doesn’t appear to be any way to choose and edit the algorithms. Most importantly, the online help could never replace the organized information of a well written manual.
I truly love what this synthesizer can do; I highly recommend it. As I mentioned, you can achieve great results by simply poking around the visible parameters. There are hundreds of great presets to get you started, and it’s easy to tweak or even radically change a patch enough to save and call it your own. But if you want to dig in deeper (I do!), without a manual, you had best be a kinesthetic learner.

Thank you so much for your great and detailed review :) Manual will come in the next update!
Can’t get any presets working on iPhone 6
They all just sound the same as the last oscillator i have loaded, despite being labelled as the preset in the top bar.
Response from developer
Hm, that's weird, so you can not change a preset (sound)? iPhone 6 is already pretty old, maybe that's an issue, though it works good on my iPhone 6s
Der MPE Burner
Nach anfänglicher Skepsis bin ich nach einem zweiten Anlauf doch sehr zufrieden mit dem Teil bringt neuen Schwung in mein Setup. Durch die MPE Matrix ist das für mein ROLI Seaboard der beste Synthesizer geworden, daran können sich viele orientieren die meinen MPE Ready zu sein. Kein anderer Synthesizer bietet das. Absolut Outstanding ! 6 Sterne 🤩

Keeps getting better and better and better with every single update!
Highly recommended for anyone who is looking for interesting and playable sounds.
