## What is Jussi?

This synthesizer emulates male voice vowels in a unique way.  Thanks to a set of powerful parameters you can make Jussi sing anything from soft and airy choir-like vowels to hard and angry shouting. 
Formants are controlled by playing with different velocity, which makes it fun and easy to play using a MIDI keyboard.

Features:

• AUv3, works with AUv3 compatible hosts like Garageband, Cubasis, AUM etc.

• ADSR with ”Turn-in” and ”Turn-out” option (Turn-in and Turn-out affects the pitch and maps it to attack and release)

• Voice character XY pad (Intensity and Narrowness)

• Legato mode (glides between notes and velocity levels)

• Legato Hold mode (polyphonic legato when using a sustain controller, consult the documentation for more info)

• Throat emulation XY pad (Grain and Tonality)

• Built-in reverb

iPhone 6 or later is recommended.
iPad 4 or later is recommended.

### 2/5 — Sounds great, but…

*2022-06-05*

Sounds great but doesn’t work with my ewi. Can you guys make this work as well as PIPA does? I actually purchased this synth because Pipa was so fantastic. Please fix

### 5/5 — amazing developer

*2021-12-12*

i love these synths and only use these

### 2/5 — meh

*2020-12-08*

so i wasn’t looking for this. it was basically a waste of my $7.  but it’s still good to annoy my friends with high pitched drill-like noises!

### 1/5 — The girl with the nonfunctional tattoo

*2020-12-06*

Does not work at all in GarageBand...in any configuration whatsoever.  Thanks a lot, Sweden.  I am unemployed so $7 wasted is a lot of money for me.  So disappointing.

### 4/5 — Update?

*2020-11-17*

Love love love this app, when it was working. I often use this for my music production work but for some reason none of my plugins that I’ve purchased from your company are working and I wonder if it’s because of the new iPad OS 14.2??. Please can you guys get this sorted!!

### 5/5 — The real Jussi

*2020-11-07*

I really have some great sessions working with app...carefull set  up , decent reverb and a little modulation and  boom...unique sound scape...nice 👏👏👏👏🦄🎩

### 5/5 — Does what it does

*2020-05-27*

This is a vocal synth. It produces a synthesized voice. There are a few variables to control but this is not subtractive, modular, granular or FM synthesis. It’s a voice w/ some parameters to adjust but it’s still the same voice. 
There’s not a way to control the vowels that the voice sings. In fact, it makes a sound that is like all vowels combined or perhaps, absent of any vowel sounds at all. It’s like a voice singing trying to sing “aahhhhhh” but it sounds more like “uyghhhhhhh”. 
You can get a lot of weird sounds from it. It definitely sounds like a voice. It’s klevgrand so it’s good. 
I think it’s great. 
I read the reviews first. 
I got exactly what I was expecting and hope this helps someone else to expect exactly what they’re getting.

### 5/5 — Prima!

*2019-12-23*

Ich kann nun das hohe C von Jussi Björling simulieren :-). Auch die anderen Klänge sind interessant und gefallen mir gut ...- eine liebevoll gestaltete App.

### 5/5 — Look up a video

*2019-01-08*

Look up a video so you know what you are buying. I got what I wanted cause they don’t have other voice synth apps like this. Wish they had more voices though or more voice apps. Wish it was cheaper

### 1/5 — What a rip off...

*2018-08-09*

Ok so I paid $10.99 for this 30 seconds ago and I played with it and it sucks. I can’t record anything It doesn’t do $10 worth ...
