ANALOGyKIT vs WAIL

ANALOGyKIT Virtual Analog Drum Kit (AUv3) Introduction ANALOGyKIT (“analog-ee kit”) is an AUv3 virtual instrument plugin that can run standalone, or in any AUv3 compatible host such as Logic Pro, GarageBand or AUM. Please note that the standalone version does not include a built-in keyboard - you need to connect a suitable MIDI device to play the synth. Please also note that ANALOGyKIT is not a drum machine, so does not have a built-in pattern sequencer. It has been designed as a virtual drum kit / drum module controlled via MIDI, using a separate sequencer plugin or piano roll in a DAW. ANALOGyKIT currently runs on iOS (iPad & iPhone) and macOS (Intel & Silicon) and is available as a Universal Purchase from the Apple App Store. If you’re planning on using ANALOGyKIT on Mac / desktop, please ensure that your favourite DAW / host supports AUv3 (not just AU). NOTE - ANALOGyKIT uses the same synthesis engine as ANALOGyDR so you can think of ANALOGyKIT as 8 x ANALOGyDR, plus pitch-sweepable oscillators, lo-fi bit-crushing, dedicated per-voice effects and a master / mixer section. Design Overview ANALOGyKIT is an 8 voice virtual analog drum synthesizer, i.e. it does not use samples. The design is based on the sound engines in early analog drum machines for the late 1970’s and early 80’s. Each voice comprises two tuneable pitched oscillators (with sweep), two noise sources and a variable mode filter with envelope. A lo-fi bit-crushing effect can also be applied to each voice independently. All eight voices have their own dedicated tempo-sync delay and reverb with gate effect. The master output section includes an 8 channel stereo mixer and simple one-knob controls for compression, limiting and clipping. Presets ANALOGyKIT comes with factory presets for Kits and individual Drums, and user presets can be saved or loaded using the OS file system browser. New Kits can be generated automatically by combining sounds randomly from existing factory Drum and Kit presets.

WAIL — Feedback Synthesiser Turn unstable feedback into a playable instrument. WAIL forces a self-resonating signal into submission, generating harsh drones, soaring screams, and aggressive textures that traditional synths refuse to touch. Built for zero menu-diving and pure performance, WAIL delivers raw, uncompromised noise control in a single intuitive screen. TAME THE NOISE: 4 Dynamic XY Pads: Instant tactile control over Feedback/Filter, Bite/Space, Ring/Fold, and Comb/Sub. Dedicated Performance Knobs: Master, Spread, Grind, and Tune—with dual-axis Coarse/Fine tuning designed for precise, subtle adjustments mid-performance. Real-Time Visuals: Built-in integrated oscilloscope displays waveform stability and feedback saturation as you play. Drone or MIDI Triggered: Play as an evolving drone, or connect a MIDI keyboard or sequencer. Seamless AUv3 Integration: Full host transport sync, preset save/recall, and universal MIDI CC learn across all 12 parameters. Universal Support: Formatted natively for both iPad and iPhone as an AUv3 plugin or Standalone app. 12 parameters. 4 XY pads. One feedback loop trying to escape.
