Degenson vs Aural Studio

Degenson is a raw virtual analog drum machine built for distorted percussion, hypnotic sequences and aggressive sound design. Six voices, dual LFOs and fast hands-on control for techno, EBM and experimental production. Now it's also an AUv3 plugin: run Degenson inside your favorite iOS host — GarageBand, AUM, Cubasis, Drambo and more — perfectly in sync with your project tempo. • Six punchy virtual-analog voices with analogue-style decay — percussive across most of the knob, opening into an infinite drone at the top • Full MIDI: notes trigger the voices, every knob responds to a fixed MIDI CC, and the sequencer can be bypassed to play live from any controller • Melodic mode: each octave maps the six voices and transposes them, so you can play the drums tuned across the keyboard • Fast, tactile step sequencer with per-step control and dual LFOs for evolving, hypnotic patterns • Crunch Verb: a gritty master reverb with Mix, Decay and Crunch — the tail degrades as it fades Free to play. The optional Pro upgrade unlocks the AUv3 plugin for use in your DAW and WAV export for bouncing your patterns.

Press play. Then make the sound your own. Aural Studio starts you inside a complete soundscape, not at an empty editor. Open one of four presets and listen. When a layer catches your ear, open the soundscape, reshape it, and save your version to keep exploring. MEET RESONANT TIDE A deep brown-noise bed rolls beneath two pink-noise breakers. White-noise foam brightens the surface, with a subtle binaural current underneath. Hear the whole five-layer soundscape first; then open it up. FOLLOW WHAT CATCHES YOUR EAR Mute Rolling Waves and notice what drops away. Reorder the stack or duplicate a layer before an experiment. Add sine, triangle, square, and sawtooth tones, plus white, pink, and brown noise. The controls change with the kind of layer you choose. SEND A WAVE ACROSS STEREO Give Rolling Waves a repeating path between left and right. Compatible tone and noise layers can hold a stereo position or move along a repeating path. Stereo headphones are recommended for the intended separation. DRAW HOW THE SOUND UNFOLDS Choose a value available for the layer and draw a curve across its duration. Scrub to a moment, then listen as playback follows the same rise, dip, or turn. DARKEN OR BRIGHTEN THE TEXTURE For tones and noise with filtering, choose low-pass or high-pass and adjust cutoff and resonance while you listen. LET ONE WAVE SHAPE TWO MORE When Rolling Waves swells, Sea Foam rises and the Binaural Current's beat shifts with it. In Resonant Tide, the changing volume of one layer can drive those two values. Shape one source instead of redrawing the same movement. Your original settings remain ready if you change course. KEEP YOUR VERSION Save and reopen the soundscape. Duplicate it before a new direction. Import or export editable Aural documents. Your documents stay on your device unless you explicitly export them. Aural Studio is free on the App Store.
