This is a AUv3 compatible audio effect which can be used as plugin with your favourite DAW such as Cubasis, Meteor, Auria or GarageBand and NOT a standalone app. It supports a modern graphical interface and presets with stereo meters for monitoring signal levels. The FilterMorph is one of our most fun, interesting, experimental and yet incredibly useful AUv3 plugins to date. It takes the concept of a traditional audio filter and pairs it with overdrive, bit crunching and tape delay to perform some incredibly neat real-time or beat synced automation effects. At the heart of the effect are a set of transitional filters (low pass, high pass, band pass, notch and formant filter) which you can assign to the Cutoff Control. The twist here is that you can assign different filters to each end of the frequency spectrum and morph between them to achieve a much more interesting results. So for example you can use a LP filter for low frequencies and a BP filter for high frequencies, and the frequency dial will smoothly transition between the two. The main interface of the effect scrolls to reveal a set of two finger touch-pads, each of which responds to one of more fingers. Each pad can be assigned two of several parameters, one to the vertical axis, and the other to the horizontal. This allows you to control up to 4 knobs in real-time using only two fingers. A glide control allows you to control the rate of change so you can create those gentle sweeps without the effort. But it doesn't stop there... we also include effects such as overdrive, bit shifter and tape delay and these parameters can also be freely assigned to the finger pads. A configurable modulation section also allows you to automate panning or vibrato and assign various envelope shapes. Hold multiple fingers down on a pad and the play cursor will fly between your fingers at a specified speed. Press the HOLD button and you can then release your fingers and have them playback a set pattern. Press the SYNC TO BEAT button and the play cursor will move from one point to another at set beat intervals. Use the FOLLOW feature to follow finger movements etc. The build in Tape Delay allows control over delay time, feedback and level, but the advantage of this type of delay is you get the warping pitch shifting effects as you change the delay time. This allows for some very interesting effects, especially when applied to strings or held chords. This is an essential tool for those wanting to add a creative or experimental twist to any form of electronic composition, adding a few extra dynamics into your mix with very little effort. This is one of a suite of AUv3 compatible plugins which will also soon be available from 4Pockets.

NEW IN 5.0 — PLAY, PRACTISE AND CONVERT - Instrument voices: every part plays with a voice chosen by its General MIDI program family (piano, organ, guitar, bass, strings, brass, winds, synths) and channel 10 plays a drum kit. The voices are Midiary's own sounds; they sketch the arrangement rather than reproduce a General MIDI sound set. - Practice & mix: mute or solo any part, change speed from 25% to 200% without changing pitch, shift the key up or down 12 semitones for singers, and loop any range of bars. - Play to MIDI gear: send the file to a USB or Bluetooth MIDI keyboard, module or interface, with its own program changes. SysEx is sent only if you turn it on. - Key and chords: an estimated key and a chord for every bar, with a shareable chord chart. Tap a bar to play from it. - Lyrics and karaoke: lyric events and .kar files follow playback line by line. - File tools: convert format 1 to format 0 for keyboards, arrangers and player pianos, or split a file into one track per channel for your DAW. Set or scale the tempo, change resolution, set a channel's General MIDI instrument, rename, move or delete tracks. Every change is verified and undoable. - Extract: copy a range of bars and the parts you choose into a new MIDI file, with tempo and sounds set up at its start. - Audio export: render M4A or WAV with the current mix, key and speed — a practice backing track in seconds. - Bars and beats throughout: event list, note list, piano roll grid and a playhead. - Open MIDI files from Files, Mail or other apps, use Shortcuts actions (file info, format conversion, transpose, tempo), and iPad keyboard shortcuts. Midiary is an offline studio for Standard MIDI Files on iPhone and iPad. Your imported original always stays intact. MAKE MUSICAL CORRECTIONS Select tracks and channels, transpose, adjust velocity, or move note starts toward straight and triplet grids with variable strength. Drum protection keeps channel 10 out of batch edits. EDIT THE EXACT NOTE Search by pitch, filter and page through long files. Change a note's pitch, velocity, start and duration. Review the actual changes before saving; ambiguous overlaps and unsafe edits are blocked with an explanation. GROOVE BENCH Extract the timing and velocity feel of a passage and apply it to another part with separate timing and dynamics strengths. Up to 64 templates are kept on the device. KEEP THE ORIGINAL Imported MIDI bytes stay unchanged. Edits save locally with undo and redo that survive closing the app, up to 20 steps within 48 MB. Restore the original as an undoable step. Damaged sessions are preserved for recovery. INSPECT THE FILE Tracks with their instruments, channels and note ranges; tempo map; time and key signatures; markers; structural findings; a channel-coloured piano roll; and an event desk with bar, time and tick. Metrical and SMPTE timing and format 2 sequences are supported. EXPORT YOUR WORK Share the untouched original, the edited MIDI, a cleaned copy with missing End-of-Track events added and hanging notes closed, an event CSV, or rendered audio. Start with your own .mid, .midi or .kar file, or open the bundled piano sample or the band sample with lyrics. Imports support up to 8 MB, 1,024 tracks and 100,000 events. Playback runs in the foreground. No account, subscription, in-app purchase, advertising or tracking. Files and editing sessions stay on your device unless you export or share them. Midiary does not record from the microphone. Bluetooth is used only if you open Bluetooth MIDI pairing.
