Response from developer

GeoShred Control is NOT an audio app. It's a FREE MIDI MPE controller. The product page clearly explains this. Here is the first line of the product page: "GeoShred Control is a stand-alone MIDI/MPE controller. It does NOT have a Audio Engine". Also first launch brings up a full screen that explains this. If you want an audio version of GeoShred, get GeoShred Play (Blue Icon) or GeoShred Pro (Green Icon). Why don't you reach out to us directly and we can help you ... support@moforte.com

Best tool.

Now if you see it plays pretty well as compared to any others apps. Must be made for android as well.
All the best with your research on Harmoniums.
Please include all piano as well. Yamaha,grand, concert, bright etc.
Thanks for the reply.

Response from developer

1) There is an option to show all keys. Every Instrument has a preset called "Scale" For instance "Naada Sitar Scale". These presets expose the button for Scale and Root. 2) Frankly the price of the instruments is cost effective compared to other providers of interactive physical models. These instruments are NOT samples they are physical models and each instrument is a research project. The GeoSWAM versions of these instruments are about 1/2 the cost of the same instruments from Audio Modeling. 3) We understand that you want a harmonium and you want it for free. Frankly the harmonium is a difficult instrument to model because of the degree of Polyphony. I don't think your request is reasonable. That we spend a year or more figuring out how to model this instrument and then make it available for free. Honestly I think it might have been better if you asked us your questions rather than turning them into complaints based on asumptiions in a review. We are always available to answer questions at support@moforte.com

Amazing & innovative!

I’ve tried many music apps over the years, but GeoShred genuinely feels different. It’s not just another synth app—it’s an expressive instrument that lets you bend, slide, and shape notes in a very natural way.

The sounds are excellent, and when connected to a MIDI keyboard, it becomes even more powerful. There’s a bit of a learning curve, but once you get comfortable with it, the creative possibilities are amazing.

If you’re a keyboard player, music producer, or simply love exploring new ways to make music, GeoShred is absolutely worth trying.

Great instrument

Inspired by the great Jordan Rudess I tried the GeoShred Control and upgraded very soon to Pro and bought some instrument collections. The app runs without problem as AUv3, so can be embedded in bigger setups. But also just by itself it is a pleasure to use, because it is very musical and expressive. Beginning is easy, so first successes come quick. Mastering is another question as with any instrument.
Toto make it short: a great instrument I highly recommend
