Cool tracker but please add horizontal support!

I like this but could really use horizontal support for both iPad and iPhone. Superior to Nanoloop!

Updated - 2021!

Brilliant chip tune tracker!

This does nothing on iPad anymore, as Mr Sigth’s other apps are phenomenal and great value I’m not fussed about the two quid, consider it a thanks for your other work.

FAQ

What kind of music can I create with Sinusoid?

Sinusoid is designed to create music inspired by retro 8-bit game consoles. It offers 4 sound channels, with 3 capable of producing various tones like sinusoid, square, triangle, saw, and pulse waves. The fourth channel is dedicated to drums and noise, allowing for a wide range of retro-style soundscapes.

What sound sculpting features does Sinusoid offer?

The app provides a comprehensive set of tools to sculpt your sound. This includes an amplitude envelope, vibrato, pitch glide, a resonant filter, and a second oscillator for FM and ring modulation. You can further enhance your sounds with an arpeggiator, tape delay, and bit/samplerate crusher.

How can I share or export my music from Sinusoid?

You can export your songs directly to AIFF format, which can then be listened to within the in-app music player or shared with other applications. Projects can also be saved and shared between devices on the same network using the 'open with' feature and drag-and-drop functionality with the Files app.

Does Sinusoid support MIDI and integration with other music apps?

Yes, Sinusoid offers robust MIDI support for both controlling parameters and inputting notes. It also features MIDI out capabilities to control external synths. For integration with other sound applications, it supports Audiobus, Inter App Audio (IAA), and AUv3.
