What's New in OktaDie

1.2.10

August 11, 2026

SEVEN PANEL FINISHES Black Beast, White Angel, Pink, Orange, Zanzibar Blue, Chernobyl Green and Rusted, from the UI menu. Your choice is remembered across every instance. TUNER A tuner at the top of the panel, switched on under SETUP > DEVICE. Touch a TUNE knob and it follows that oscillator, reading the voice directly: you can tune a voice in silence, with no HOLD and no pad held down. Tap it to go back to reading the instrument's output. THE COIN On the hardware you rest a coin across the two sensor discs to hold a voice on by itself. Drag one in from the edge of the panel and drop it on any pad. Slide it up and down to set how hard it presses; flick it off the pad to remove it. PRESETS SHARED BETWEEN THE APP AND THE AUv3 Standalone and the AUv3 extensions used to keep separate preset folders, so a preset saved in one did not appear in the other. They now share a single library. Presets already on your device are moved across on first launch, and nothing is deleted. PER-NOTE MODULATION MATRIX MPE controllers can now move more than the volume of a note. A grid under SETUP > MPE routes what your controller sends on each note - PRESS (channel pressure), SLIDE (CC74) and STRIKE (velocity) - to four destinations: the skin sensor, a per-note VCA, the SHARP waveform of that single oscillator, and its vibrato depth. One gesture can reach several destinations at once. SHARP, PER NOTE The panel knob serves two voices, so until now the waveform could not follow a single note. It can now. The matrix adds to the knob position on one oscillator alone, and the knob dims on the half your notes have taken - two notes held together can have different waveforms. What a gesture leaves behind stays with the note through its release, so nothing snaps back when you lift your finger. NOTHING TO CHOOSE FIRST There is no message to select before the grid: channel pressure and CC74 are two of its rows, and they follow whichever of the two is higher. Per-note expression works with any controller out of the box, whichever message yours sends. PAD PRESSURE IS REMEMBERED The PAD PRESSURE setting under SETUP > DEVICE now survives between sessions instead of going back to 100% every time you open the app.

M1 ? Love this!!!

We are into this sort of thing - in fact almost broke the Mac trying to install an unsigned version of this in a vst format… would you be super kind and when a future update appears make it M1 silicon capable? Then we can start to really use this sound in music production in tandem with the iPad approach. Also the other developer created a quantize option - but you could expand on that to allow .scl files and we could all use ancient scales with this… and n infinite back and forward option because it’s cool? Also parameters exposed so we can emulate with midi controllers - lots of requests - but a joy as is!!! Thank you. Relieves tinnitus as well - instabuy!!✌️✌️

Ein Tag jung und jetzt schon ein Klassiker.
Warnung -die Zeit verfliegt bei der Nutzung dieser App! Danke an den genialen Entwickler 🙏🏻
Danke aber auch an die Firma SOMA 🙏🏻

Lyra8 on iPhone :O

Sounds pretty close to the real ones from what I’ve heard watching countless videos on em. It’s so fun to drone out and make harsh noise with, works fantastic in Drambo!
