User reviews

I really love this app.

I personally think that this a great app. But I would like for it to have a wavetable module too for digital waves.

Great update to a gem of an app!

Very welcome additions to this fun modular app. Keep up the good work.

Great. Love the Layout Particularly.

Love the modular layout of this synth. Great for helping with an understanding of how synths work. Great job!

Excellent modular synth w/ excellent support

This synth is very powerful and works without much fuss if you are use to routing. Dev was extremely responsive when I had an issue and released a fix for it quickly.

Synth takes low resources which is great. I wish I could midi map to all/more of the knobs in my patch but there is more than enough to get something good going.

Awesome synth

I LOVE this soft synth. So much fun to experiment with. There are very limited instructions so you are really forced to try new things and see what happens, which is cool.

Very realistic and detailed. You can learn all about signal paths and how modules effect one another, without having to set up a whole eurorack. I love the sounds I can get out of my patches and have sampled them many times!
