Multimode Ladder Filter vs P410 Joyride
Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
Multimode Ladder Filter
This app emulates a classic 1965 ladder filter, offering five distinct modes for versatile sound shaping. It provides warm analog-style distortion and the ability to drive the filter into self-oscillation for unique sonic textures. A dry/wet control allows for parallel filtering.
- 4-pole ladder filter emulation
- Five filter modes (LP, HP, BP, Notch, Resonant)
- Analog-style distortion with drive
- Self-oscillation at high resonance
- Dry/wet parallel filtering control

A 4-pole (24 dB/oct) ladder filter modeled after the topology designed by Robert Moog in 1965. Four cascaded one-pole stages with tanh saturation at input and feedback produce warm analog-style distortion that scales with drive and resonance. Five filter modes (lowpass, highpass, bandpass, notch, and resonant) cover everything from classic subtractive sweeps to sharp self-oscillating leads. Resonance drives the filter to self-oscillation at high values, generating a sine tone at the cutoff frequency. A dry/wet control enables parallel filtering.

P410 Joyride is a 10-band graphic equalizer that turns EQ into a creative instrument. Each band models an inductor-based LC resonant circuit, giving your sound the smooth yet weighty character of vintage analog hardware — a Tone Flux experience that breathes, bends and glows. Run it as a standalone app to process live audio, or load it as an AUv3 Audio Unit effect inside your favorite iOS host — GarageBand, Logic Pro for iPad, AUM, Cubasis and more. TONE, NOT JUST CORRECTION • 10 inductor-style LC resonant bands with variable proportional Q • EQ FLIP inverts your curve in one tap • SCALE spreads the band frequencies across the spectrum — from focused to ultra-wide • Key-aware tuning: shift the whole EQ grid by changing the A4 reference (440 Hz by default) SIX DRIVE ENGINES • Design your own input transformer character with 6 saturation engines (D1–D6), processed before the Voice Bias stage • From subtle thickening to glowing harmonic light SEE YOUR SOUND • Real-time multicolor spectrum analyzer • EQ+CURVE view shows the exact summed response curve • Precise IN/OUT RMS metering STUDIO TOOLS • Mid/Side and Left/Right matrix processing with solo • Q LINK for global bandwidth control • A/B compare and copy • 112 factory presets by professional engineers, organized in folders with favorites, import and export • Presets shared between the standalone app and the AUv3 plug-in MADE FOR iOS • AUv3 + standalone • Near-zero latency, CPU-efficient DSP • Full support for iPad and iPhone
