[ACCOLADES] - Featured in Apple's staff favorites! - Reviewed in Computer Music magazine and received a 9/10! [DESCRIPTION] Jasuto is the worlds first (and most powerful) modular synthesizer for the iDevices. Jasuto allows you to visually construct your own synths/effects, and use them to make sequences all on your device! With the addition of a fully-featured sampler you can now record/resample/edit, and even create entirely new samples by drawing right in the app. Jasuto uses the relative position of nodes and their connections to control the sound. So the scene not only represents the synthesis structure, but also a custom multi-touch control surface. Motion can be recorded per node giving you rich, flexible automation. Connections can be created automatically by simply dragging nodes around, or manually. Each wire can be double-tapped to allow even more control of each connection. Jasuto comes installed with 75+ modules as well as 200+ pre-loaded scenes and samples. Each of the modules have been hand-optimized for your device's CPU, allowing you to create extremely complex scenes. [NOTABLE FEATURES] - Anti-aliased oscillators with hard-sync, FM, PWM, PM - Analog style filters (ap, lp, hp, bp, ladder emulation) - Signal control (compressor, limiter, gate, follower) - Zoomable sampler editor with several loop modes (normal, 1 shot, ping, granular) - ADSR envelope editor - Multipage/octave sequencer - Tape style analog delay - Reverb, phaser, several waveshapers - Resample/record the current playback - Audio copy via the pasteboard - Incoming OSC and MIDI for notes and CC's - Audiobus support (input, effect & output source) - Completely compatible with iOS7 - Updated UI graphics - Universal device and Retina support - A shiny new manual - Added background audio support - Low latency audio (256 samples) - Sample sharing through SoundCloud - Dropbox syncing of samples/scenes - High Fidelity (Hi-Fi) Audio [WEBSITE] http://www.jasuto.com

Read full description

resonatedo is a microtonal resonator bank audio effect for iOS and macOS. It contains two sets of resonators controlled by separate keyboards. Each resonator has independent pitch (set by EDO division value of the keyboard), volume and modulation. Each resonator is a delay with feedback that contains lowpass + allpass and bandpass filters. Each set has a common "color" parameter that changes balance between these filter sets in each single resonator. The "mix" control allows crossfade from dry to fully processed signal. UI features two independent keyboards with: • 4 – 72 keys (voices, steps) per octave, each with its own ring modulator • maximum polyphony equal to the number of voices; max polyphony is 144 voices • 1 – 4 octave range, covering the frequency range of about 8 – 4200 Hz • display with note number (from C), note name, frequency (in Hz), and deviation from 12-TET (in cents) • two sections per keyboard: upper for non-sustained notes, gliding, and velocity; lower for sustained notes and modulation rate • mute button to stop/start all sound • delete/panic button to erase all notes • glide button for smooth sweeps across keyboard frequency range • modulation on/off button • slider to set initial velocity and modulation levels • slider to change velocity and modulation rates for all notes on the keyboard proportionally and to show current velocity and mod rate levels • button to toggle keyboard visibility. resonatedo supports MIDI input from external sources to control each keyboard independently.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: resonatedo at 5.0 against Jasuto's 4.1. resonatedo also leads on price ($3.99 vs $4.99). Jasuto's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 40 months) and ratings volume (38 vs 8). On review sentiment, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

resonatedo holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 38 and 8 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Jasuto's written reviews are positive against 75% of resonatedo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Jasuto ships an update every 3 months, resonatedo every 40 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
