WoodSynth vs Hand Clapper

WoodSynth is a synthesizer with 4 independent layers. Each layer is in fact a synthesizer on its own. Each layer has 3 VCO’s plus a samples or wavetable based source, coming from a file or from recording the audio track. Up to 16 voices can be set per layer. Layers can be used in parallel, assigned to a region of the keyboard or used in a sequential mode where the first note(s) on are played by layer 1 and the next note(s) by layer 2 and so on. This last mode allows to have a different sound per note played (and independent from a keyboard region). WoodSynth has a polyphonic pitch-bending touch bar which also displays notes received from a keyboard. Each layer has its own filter and envelope with ADSR per voice, a pitch shifting envelope per VCO, a delay, a basic reverb, a modulator LFO per VCO, 2 general LFO’s and a 16 steps sequencer. Key tracking can be applied on the ADSR attack and release, on the filter cutoff and on the VCO modulation. The app can be used stand-alone (device audio input and output) or as a plugin in a DAW. - IOS plugin type : AUv3 and stand-alone app.
 - Has 4 independent synthesizers, each with up to 16 voices.
 - Supports MPE and Midi V2. - Has a polyphonic touch bar with polyphonic pitch bending.
 - Velocity, channel pressure, (polyphonic) aftertouch, CC74 can be used to modulate several synth parameters.
 - VCO’s have the usual waveforms (sine, saw, square, triangle, pulse and noise) and can be modulated in various ways (FM, AM, Pulse Width, Slew rate)
 - Samples can be recorded from the audio input/track or loaded from file (sample files should be in the WoodSynth iCloud folder)
 - Wavetables can be loaded from file or converted from loaded or recorded samples.
 - Each voice has a 4-pole Moog Lowpass filter with resonance and ADSR envelope.
 - An offset can be set in the Filter cutoff for the R channel to create a stereo effect.
 - Each voice has a pitch shifting ADSR envelope which can be independently enabled for each VCO.
 - Has Key tracking for VCO pan, Filter cutoff, ADSR Envelope Attack and Release.
 - Each layer has a delay unit (which can be separately panned) and a basic reverb.
 - Each layer has a 16 steps sequencer which can run on multiple voices (poly mode).
 - Each layer can set the midi channel and range of receiving midi notes (which allows for up to 4 split keyboard regions).
 - Layers can be set in sequential mode : first note(s) played on layer1, next note(s) on layer2, etc. - Layers have an additional high-pass filter saturation and crush control.
 - Synth audio and delay can be panned independently.
 - The 2 general LFO’s can have their source from the samples or wavetables (or track input).
 - Supports Ableton Link to sync tempo and start-stop.
 - Has 4 User Control rotaries which can be freely assigned.
 - The User Controls can be controlled by a midi CC which can be set or learned.
 - Presets can be stored in iCloud Drive (makes them available on all your devices). - Supports CV out and Sequencer Midi out.

Hand Clapper is a drum synthesizer plugin dedicated to claps sounds. Available as AUv3 and Standalone. The design is inspired by a famous Japanese percussion synthesiser from the ’80. There are three internal noise sources that are used to recreate the classic sound of vintage analog drum machines (such as 808, 909, HC2, and more). You are not limited to just the on-board sounds though, you can also load in any sample you want.
