Gradatone vs Tapestra

Gradatone is a seamless pitch instrument: swipe the screen and hear pitch move smoothly—named for the gradient of sound. Play with nuance keyboards cannot easily offer—vocal-like vibrato and string-like glissandos. Layer timbres for rich harmony, or turn on Snap to pull pitch gently toward a scale. Choose from major, minor, Okinawan and Miyako modes, Chinese pentatonic, Indian (raga), Arabic, blues, and more. Labels include English, kana, and Indian note names (Sa/Pa). No account, ads, in-app purchases, or tracking. Settings stay on your device only. On iOS, you can play even when the Ring/Silent switch is on (use the device volume buttons).

Tapestra turns your phone into a pocket band. ONE-FINGER ACCOMPANIMENT Pick a style — pop, funk, ballad, bossa nova, swing, waltz, slow rock, disco — hold a chord and the band plays: intro, two main grooves, fills, break and ending, switched live like a real arranger keyboard. PADS & KITS 16 velocity-sensitive pads with acoustic, electronic and percussion kits. Edit any pad: sound, pitch, pan, choke groups. PIANO & DRAWBAR ORGAN A 128-voice General MIDI piano/synth with 100+ presets, and a tonewheel organ with nine drawbars, percussion and a rotary speaker you can speed up mid-phrase. STEP SEQUENCER 16-step drum sequencer with swing, per-step velocity and pattern chaining — build a beat while you play on top. STUDIO EFFECTS 5-band EQ, compressor, pitch shifter, flanger, ping-pong delay, reverb and bass boost on the master bus, each with hands-on knobs. RECORD & SHARE Record the mix to WAV with the built-in metronome and share it anywhere. Open the demo song to see what a two-minute performance looks like.
