UI nightmare
Quite possibly one of the worst user interfaces I encountered so far.
Ein zeitloser Klassiker endlich als App
Das die Hardware heute noch in vielen Studios und Produktionen benutzt wird, zeigt wie zeitlos das Synclavier ist. Und als iPad Variante ist es nun auch für jeden erschwinglich. Die Original Presets geben nicht annähernd die Möglichkeiten wieder, die dieses Gerät bietet. Sie stammen aus einer Zeit, wo man Instrumente möglichst authentisch nachahmen wollte. Songs wie „Beat“ it oder Genesis „Mama“ aber zeigen, das Synclavier kann auch anders.
Wer sich intensiv mit der Klangarchitektur beschäftigt, wird Klänge entdecken, die einzigartig sind. Vor allem, wenn man die Sounds über eine gute, anschlagdynamische Tastatur spielt. Dann entfalltet die App Ihr gesamtes Potential.
Die 12 Timbre mit framing erzeugen sehr komplexe und dynamische Sounds, die kein anderes Instrument in dieser Komplexität hervorbringt.
Mir fehlt die Resynthese des Originals, was hoffentlich endlich mit der schon lange angekündigten Version kommen wird. Dann gibt es auch von mir 5 Sterne

Interface with midi
I find this difficult to interface with a midi device
Original, highly creative and sonically unique! 🐠
SYNCLAVIER is an incredibly original and highly creative synthesiser, with an entirely unique sonic signature, and a legacy deeply entwined in synthesis history. If you love synthesis you owe it yourself to access what this synthesiser has to offer as it’s capable of generating a complex and diverse gamut of sonic textures, colours, forms and nuances that sound incredibly organic and raw. I love listening to this synthesiser through my AKG headphones via some subtle HQ reverb to bring out every detail of those wonderful rich timbres and explore its unique architecture which is also incredibly original and generates sounds as simple; or as complex as you desire …sonic bliss!

The myth the legend, the reality
Growing up hearing of the outrageously expensive Synclavier it seemed a bargain.
I cannot compare to the original but unless you like cheesy cheap sounds it's rubbish.

Is definitely on the glitchier side, but still worth it
These samples are god tier. Amazingly lifelike. That said, the app is very buggy in some ways, so write down which samples you use for what in case it glitches out.

I love this application the fantastic sounds of the synclavier in my pocket also the new version is crazy thanks friends developers
Thanks for AUv3!
I almost bought a hardware Synclavier in the 80’s but my backers pulled out the when market fell. 😆
Danke für
Dieses schönes und gutes Instrument.
So Much Love Put Into This App
It’s a very unique and intuitive method of synthesis. An absolute joy to play and to program (even if you don’t 100% know what you are doing.) This app sounds great and is certain to offer something you don’t have already. Lots of synths out there that are of a much lower quality. This app on the other hand is a complete instrument worth far and away more than the asking price.
Read through the introduction to learn the ropes and then get ready to sink your teeth in. There is a lot on offer here. Incredible depth. A might thank you to the developers and inventor of the OG system it’s based upon!

Klasse, doch mir fehlt einiges im Vergleich zum VST Synclavier V von Arturia
1. Delay
2. Reverb
3. Einzelausgänge

Wonderful.
Words could not possibly do it justice. Headphones or a good system certainly do. This is different, but not in a, “I’m trying to be different” way. Simply, brilliantly, wonderful.
Amazing piece of synth history in an app
Just started playing with this. Amazing depth to this but takes a bit of understanding to get used to. Sounds are astonishing. Would be great to have more videos explaining how everything works. Biggest improvement would be adding full midi implementation so all parameters could be controllable .... hopefully this will come sooner or later ???

Don’t Buy If You Like Using Midi to Control Parameters
The synclavier is a mythical thing...sure it used to cost a fortune and take up a room.
I was excited to finally take the plunge and spend a small amount of money on this beast
This app is a recreation and thus a lot of the annoyances can be passed off as quirky. In fact, the interface is enjoyable, because it is so different...and that can allow for creative possibilities. The red buttons are cool, the synthesis is cool, and the sounds you can get from this are awesome.
But this is a full priced app, and it should have the ability to map midi control to the knob. I understand that everyone needs to make money...but your knob is what 3-400 dollars?
People who want that would buy it anyways...give the common man a break and make the knob mappable.

More than just another synth app
I’ve owned and played synths for 40 years and got most of the apps. Now this is a pleasure. It’s not only a fantastic pro synth, it also lets you into a major part of synthesiser history. The Synclavier is one of the great synths and this is a lovingly made app. Get it. Now.
Top shelf music production
One of the best music apps available!
All is great!
But please raise the volume, I always have to put this AUV3 to the max or otherwise it just gets diminished to the point of non-existence because of how low the sound is.
Not a big deal and can always be dealt with with other AUV3s, but it just makes it more practical to have a more standard volume level.

A must to have
Great synth! It’s becoming more and more similar to the Arturia one. I really appreciate your efforts.
Keeps getting better with every update!
I’m always excited when I see a new Synclavier update waiting for me. The new addition of AUv3 support and sound files (with the included Synclavier Timbres) is wonderful. It helps my iPad workflow immensely and these classic sounds are fun, inspiring, and very usable. So glad to see this app steadily progressing and becoming more powerful with each new release. Keep up the good work!

I owned two Synclavier in the 1980s & 90s. This is AWESOME!
I am excited to return to the instrument that inspired much of my creative output decades ago. I am planning on integrating these sounds into my next orchestral premiere in FEB, 2021: Concerto for Orchestra: The Pandemic. I expect the Synclavier sounds to be integral in merging with the 50-piece orchestra. cb3music.org
