ANILOG is bursting onto the scene with a totally new approach to making synthesized instruments---this isn't your typical analog synth. Designed by musicians and battle-tested in live performance, ANILOG is a mobile powerhouse! It's great for vintage video game, chiptune, and synth pop music. Perform live music sets with pattern looping and cueing. Load ANILOG in your favorite DAW as an Audio Unit plugin! (ANILOG supports most AUv3 hosts.) For each instance of ANILOG you can choose single instruments in Instrument Mode, or set to Sequencer Mode to play more complex backing tracks. ANILOG is also fully Audiobus and Inter-App Audio compatible. Combine 3 oscillators and a noise envelope to produce bright 80s-style synths, rich deep bass, punchy kicks and snares, a variety of screaming leads, and even breathy woodwinds! It's loaded with 168 hand-crafted presets that respond to touch velocity on the on-screen keyboard or an attached MIDI keyboard. The built-in multi-track sequencer lets you play up to 32 voices simultaneously with per-track reverb and volume send levels. Each song contains its own instrument patch library so you can create the perfect sound. Compose and share songs wherever you are. Speed up your editing by attaching a hardware keyboard. Also supports cool effects like a built-in echo tank and sidechain ducking. This is the ultimate analog workstation that fits in your pocket or on the stage. * Audio Units version 3 (AUv3) compatible * Up to 32 voices * 168 factory preset programs, 168 extra user program storage * 3 oscillators and 1 noise generator per voice * Velocity-sensitive envelopes and properties * 16-track sequencer with import and export * Looping, next-pattern selection, and track mute toggle buttons for live performance * Built-in echo tank, sidechain effect, randomized detuning for warmth * Export/import instrument settings to JSON to share with your friends * Designed for the iPhone, and scales up to an iPad (even in windowed mode) * On-screen note keyboard that can be hidden * Plug in MIDI keyboard * Rad "dark" look that makes it easy to see on stage * Attach a hardware keyboard for enhanced editing shortcuts, use window mode on iPad * Audiobus compatible, IAA compatible
