Here comes the the crazy twin-sister of Ruismaker, designed for people who want to design their own percussion sounds from scratch. Ruismaker FM's simple, yet flexible synthesis engine lets you create anything from snaredrums, kickdrums and spacy toms to weird and unconventional percussive sounds and effects. Ruismaker FM is a unique drumsynth plugin (i.e. it does not use samples), which is coupled with a creative Euclidean sequencer when run in standalone mode. The plugin is fully AUv3 (Audio Unit) compatible: - Seamless integration with Garageband and other AU hosts - Audio Unit Instrument: making music on iOS doesn't get more convenient - Supports AUv3 Multi-Out in AUM and ApeMatrix - Each sound is modeled using authentic analog and FM algorithms; - Comes with dozens of unique customizable models - Does not use any samples; all sounds are synthesized in realtime, on the fly - Light on the CPU, so you can run lots of Ruismaker FMs simultaneously - Fully automatable parameters (requires host support) and MIDI CC controllable - Has its own preset manager The standalone sequencer is refreshingly different: - Program patterns using Euclidean algorithms - Powerful random feature and mutation probability settings per channel - Syncs with Ableton Link or MIDI Clock - Exports WAV and MIDI - Compatible with Audiobus 3 (including MIDI IN/OUT mode) - CoreMIDI In and Out - AU MIDI output for on-screen pads User manual available on Ruismaker.com

About

AccessibleTuner

Features
Read full description

Accessible Tuner is a simple multi-tuner app created by LUCA, a blind developer, who has had some difficulties finding a VoiceOver-accessible tuner app in the past herself. It will start listening for any sounds when the START button is pressed, and will show the closest note, and wheather the note is too high, too low, or in tune. Since the result area changes live, I recommend stopping the function before checking it with VoiceOver. While the Beep sound toggle is turned on, a short beep will be played when the note comes in tune. Keeping this toggle off is recommended bwhen earphones are unconnected, ecause the microphone may pick up the sound. For your information, notes falling within a 10-cent range are determined as in tune. -------- Accessible Tunerは全盲の開発者、LUCAが自らウクレレやカリンバをチューニングする際にVoiceOverで使いやすいチューナーアプリがなく困った経験を元に、乏しいSwiftの知識でなんとか形にした、視覚障害者向けのマルチ・チューナーです。 「START」ボタンを押すと聞き取りが開始され、聴取された音に最も近い音階(A~G)と、それが高いか、低いか、丁度合っているかを表示します。聞き取り中はリアルタイムで結果が変わってしまうため、落ち着いてVoiceOverに読み上げさせたい場合には、音を鳴らした後に一度「STOP」を選択して、結果表示部をご確認ください。 「ビープ音」をオンにすると、丁度になった時に短い音が鳴ります。ただし、イヤホンを使わない場合はビープ音をマイクが拾ってしまうことがあるため、通常はオフがおすすめです。 なお、本アプリでは+-10セント以内を「ちょうど」と判定します。
