PatchLens vs TONAUT

Save synth and pedal settings from a photo, then add editable hotspots and recall notes. The demo and 3 patch records stay free; Pro Lifetime is a one-time unlock. PatchLens helps musicians capture hardware synth, pedal, and semi-modular settings as private local patch records. Take or import a photo, mark the knobs and jacks that matter, add values and notes, then search your local patch library later. Optional on-device text recognition can suggest visible panel labels, but you stay in control of every saved value. PatchLens does not require an account, does not upload your photos, and does not promise automatic universal knob or cable detection. Pro Lifetime is a one-time in-app purchase that unlocks the full local patch library, on-device OCR label assist, and recall-sheet sharing. The bundled demo and 3 patch records stay free.

Tonaut is a synthesizer, drum machine, sequencer and eight-track tape recorder in one instrument, made to be played rather than programmed. Pick a sound, tap out a pattern and record it to tape, all on one panel that feels more like hardware than an app. IPHONE DUO • Folded, one octave on the outer screen. Half folded, the screens above the keys. Open, the whole instrument. Folding never stops the music SOUNDS • Nine synth engines: virtual analog, six-operator FM, wavetable, pulse, modeled string, a seven-oscillator swarm, grains, a classic analog poly and a sampler • Every engine has a 3D screen that moves with your playing, or a classic view • Over 500 sounds, from warm pads to glassy bells and growling bass, including 147 sampled instruments • Edit every sound in depth, save your own, and star your favorites • Load DX7-style SysEx banks into the FM engine • Four effects on every sound from sixteen types, from tape echo and huge reverb to distortion, pump, phaser and lo-fi • A master effect, a master EQ and an EQ on every lane DRUMS • 43 kits on three drum engines: kits made from real recorded drums, synthesized kits where every pad is its own drum, and slice kits • Knock and Cinder kits drawn in 3D, moving with every hit • A groove player: hold any pad and the whole kit plays one of sixteen grooves • Make kits from your own recordings or from audio files, one per pad KEYS AND CHORDS • Pick a key and scale and its keys light up; LOCK keeps every note in key, per lane • CHORDS plays a whole chord from one key, and works with the arpeggiator and the sequencer • Chord pad: seven chords from your key and a stick that turns each into a 7th, 9th, sus, dim and more, with strum and bass, also from a MIDI keyboard SEQUENCER • Eight lanes, each with its own sound and sixteen patterns of up to 64 steps • Write step by step or record live, with chords, slides, ratchets and chance • STEP REC: each note or chord you play fills a step, with rest and tie, also from MIDI • Pattern Play: queue the next pattern and every lane moves on together • Copy, swap and transpose patterns, and reorder lanes • An arpeggiator on every synth lane PLAY IT LIVE • A Perform page with TONE and SPACE for every lane, which glide back when you stop • An X/Y pad that bends pitch and moves the sound under one finger • One-tap mutes, tap tempo, click and count-in TAPE • Eight tracks of 20 minutes each, or six tracks of 30 minutes, chosen per project • Record every lane to its own track, or several onto one • Loop, reverse, stutter, brake and catch the last 30 seconds you played • A tape mixer, and pinch to zoom from a few bars to the whole song SAMPLING • Sample with the microphone, a USB interface, or Tonaut itself • Link your sample folders once, tap a file to hear it, and load it onto a pad or into the sampler • Drag audio files in from other apps onto a drum pad or the sampler MIDI • Play Tonaut from USB or Bluetooth MIDI keyboards and controllers, on the selected lane or with each lane on its own channel • Send any lane to your own synths and drum machines, with clock and start/stop SHARE AND EXPORT • Share a loop from the tape as a vertical video or as audio, ready to post • Send a whole song, samples and all, as one file a friend opens in Tonaut • Export a stereo mix, separate stems as WAV files, or MIDI files of every lane • Optional iCloud sync between your iPhone and iPad One purchase covers iPhone, iPad and iPhone Duo, each with its own layout, in six looks: Light, Dark, TN-1, TN-1 Dark, TN-XY and TN-SIGNAL.
