iVoxel is not only an amazingly sounding vocoder - the unique concept of iVoxel turns this vocoder into a singing machine. iVoxel is a combination of a voice optimized synthesizer and a vocoder. The vocoder part is based on the Matrix vocoder from VirSyn used by many famous artists - one of them the well known german group Kraftwerk. The channel filters used by iVoxel are based on the Sennheiser Vocoder VSM201 resulting in a rich and fat analogue sound characteristic. The pitch follower and automatic tuning let you sing correct to a selectable scale. You can use iVoxel in many different ways: As a realtime vocoder talking into the microphone while playing tunes on the keyboard. The sound character of your voice can be changed in many different aspects like pitch, gender or breath noise. Use it to sing over your favorite iTunes song ! Record the analyzed spectrum of phrases and words from your own voice. Then use this voxel to play with your own voice on the keyboard or with the build in sequencer. Nearly 300 hundred prerecorded voxels are already included. iVoxel is Audiobus compatible and can be used in the Input, Filter and Output slots in the Audiobus signal chain. The carrier signal and the vocal signal can now be fed by any Audiobus compatible Apps. The output of your creations can be recorded to an audio file which you can use with other Apps and programs for further processing. Features: • Realtime analysis/resynthesis of your voice • 20+2 Channel vocoder • Pitch Follower and automatic tuning correction to selectable scale • Realtime pitch to MIDI Note converter • Voice spectrum recorder (voxels) • Nearly 300 prerecorded voxels included • Play your vocoded voice live on keyboard.

Zeitmaschine
Read full descriptionHide full description
Zeitmaschine is an audio engineering calculator with 4 different modes to compute tempo and distance related delay times, convert time related values and to calculate file sizes. DELAY TIME MODE Zeitmaschine is a delay time calculator with all divisors and multipliers relative to the time measurement you have done. Calculate delay times in milliseconds (ms) and beats per minute (bpm). Set the desired tempo via the tab-button, or write it down in ms/bpm, all options will be computed and a huge amount of 21 matched delay times will shown up at once, including dotted and triplet values. Take these determined times and put it to the delay time display of your effect or sound device, use it to set the right attack and release times of your dynamics (compressor/gate) or set the perfect pre delay time of your reverbs in addiction to the song tempo. Works with virtual-, 19“-, or stage devices (display needed). Zeitmaschine is a pretty quick app, brilliant for live engineering, where you can choose the perfect delay time in seconds, without scrolling the knobs of your FX-device back and forth. On the other hand you got an ultimate overview of alternative delay times, that´s great for doing experiments while mixing a track in a recording studio or in your DAW. You can use it on drums, vocals, guitars, ….you name it, and give them a complete new rhythmical structure. CONVERTER MODE Convert beats per minute to milliseconds, samples & hertz, depending on the audio sample rate. FILESIZE MODE Set the duration, bit depth, sample rate and channel number and get the filesize information for uncompressed files. Add the kbps rate to get the filesize for compressed files. DELAY LINE MODE Set the distance to main P.A. in meter or feet, add the temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit and get the right delay times to delay the main P.A. to the backline and the line P.A. to the main P.A.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Zeitmaschine at $3.99 against iVoxel's $6.99. iVoxel's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On update cadence, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
