Overdrive Synth vs Skadis Click

What does a synthesizer sound like through an overdrive pedal? To answer this great mystery, I visited NightSound Studio to re-amp a plethora of synth tones through various classic guitar pedals. The results are now available for your ears in Overdrive Synth! FEATURES: • Vintage Synths Re-amped Through Guitar Pedals • 3 Keyboard Layouts (Piano, Guitar & Scaled) • AUv3 & MIDI Support • Professionally Recorded Samples • 10 Instruments (+100 more with IAP) • Proudly Built With AudioKit The app comes with 10 default instruments, and If you like the starting sounds, unlock the full version (+100 instruments) and become a turbo-powered crunch synth master! I'm also EXTREMELY excited to bring you the full video development story on how this app was made! If you're curious to see what all went into making this app including the recording process, follow the behind-the-scenes link in the app! Special thanks to Nightsound Studios where the samples were recorded, AudioKit for providing the tools to build this app, the amazing open source synth community, and you for supporting indie developers. Thank You & Enjoy! Nick Culbertson MobyPixel.com

Skadis Click is a metronome for people whose music does not sit in plain 4/4. Beats are counted in samples inside the audio render callback rather than by a timer, so the pulse cannot drift under load - and a tempo change lands instantly, without a phase glitch. In our own timing test the worst deviation across every meter, subdivision and swing setting is a single sample: 0.02 ms at 48 kHz. METER AND ACCENTS - Any meter from 1/2 to 32/16 - 17 ready-made plus a custom one - Four levels per beat: accent, normal, quiet, rest - set by tapping the beat strip - Grouping for odd meters: 7/8 as 3+2+2 or 2+2+3, with accents placed for you - The tempo unit is set apart from the meter, so 6/8 counts BPM by the dotted quarter RHYTHM - Subdivisions from eighths to septuplets, a different one per beat if you want - Swing from 0 to 100% - 66% is the classic triplet shuffle - A second layer: polyrhythm (3 against 4) or polymeter (an independent cycle that drifts against the bar), with its own timbre, level and pan SOUND - 16 timbres synthesised procedurally - no samples in the bundle, no bloat - Separate timbres for the accent, the beat and the subdivision - Level and pan per layer, so the main pulse and the polyrhythm can sit in opposite channels - Plays over your music without ducking it, and keeps running with the screen off PRACTICE TOOLS - Tempo ramp: +N BPM every M bars up to a target, with a there-and-back mode and a graph - Silence drill: the click drops out for N bars, or randomly mutes individual beats - Count-in before the start READING IT AT A GLANCE The dial shows the bar as concentric cycles: the outer ring is the beats, with dot size carrying the accent; the ticks between them are the subdivision; a separate ring is the second layer. Two progress arcs run on their own periods - in a polyrhythm they close together, in a polymeter the inner one visibly runs ahead. The beat strip along the bottom is for editing accents by touch; the rings are for reading from a music stand. ALSO - Tap tempo with a rolling average that discards obvious misses - Presets and a song mode: a chain of sections with their own tempo and meter, switching exactly on the barline - Haptics scaled by accent level, a screen flash, and a silent mode No account, no network, no ads, no tracking.
