We have ported one of the most popular musical instruments of Mexico in this application. The Salterio is easy to use and includes 30 varied melodies and is designed to touch any of them since preschool. The image was taken from the original Salterio instrument and the original sounds were recorded for each string of the instrument. Among others, we have included the musical notes of the following songs: Las Mananitas, Cielito Lindo, La Cucaracha, La Paloma, Alma Llanera, Mexico Lindo, Adios Muchachos and more. Simply select a song, adjust the volume of your iPad and follow the lines of each song and will be surprised at how easy and simple it is to play melodies with this application.
Aether Jam

Aether is the simplest way to jam progressive and melodic house from your phone. Build a track as a stack of layers โ Bass, Chords, Drums, and a live Lead โ each started from a curated loop and tuned with friendly controls. No timeline, no clutter: just pick a sound and play. One synth, everywhere. A single wavetable engine powers Bass, Chords, and Lead. Morph the oscillator from sine to saw to square, sweep the filter, shape the envelope, and save your sound to a global library you can reuse on any layer. Play, don't program. The Lead is performed live on a scale-locked pad grid โ every pad is in key, so there are no wrong notes. Hold several pads for chords, slide for glissando, and ride the one-finger filter-morph ribbon. The shimmer river. A shared shimmer-reverb send that any track can attach to or detach from with a tap โ add lush, blooming octaves to exactly the tracks you want. Make it yours. โข Swap loops, kits and chord progressions in one tap โข Per-track volume faders and mute โข Adjustable tempo, live โข Transpose the bass, change the lead octave โข Record your jam to a file and grab it from the Files app Everything stays on your device. No account, no sign-up, no data collected. Plug in headphones and start jamming.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Salterio at $1.99 against Aether Jam's $8.99. Aether Jam's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 29 months). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
