Is your SoundFont library out of control? You've got dozens — maybe hundreds — of .sf2 files scattered across iCloud, old folders and forgotten thumb drives. Every time you need a decent acoustic piano, you waste 15 minutes opening file after file in your sampler. Each bank has 20 presets but you only use 2. Rsf2 fixes that — once. HOW IT WORKS • BUILD THEMED BANKS IN ONE TAP Pull presets from 5 different SoundFonts and generate ONE .sf2 file containing only the ones you love. "My 10 Favorite Acoustic Pianos" with Steinway, Yamaha, Bösendorfer and Fazioli — all in one file, ready to load in your sampler. • REORDER PRESETS BY DRAG Visual edit mode: drag presets to dictate the exact MIDI order (bank:program) in the final file. Want Steinway D at program 0:0? Bösendorfer 290 at 0:1? You pick the sequence. • SPLIT GIANT SF2 INTO PARTS Bought a SoundFont with 30 instruments but only use 5? Split it in a tap into individual files — exactly the ones you want. WHY Rsf2 IS DIFFERENT • 100% ON YOUR DEVICE No cloud upload. No account. No cookies. No trackers. Your SoundFonts (many of which you PAID for) never leave your iPhone, iPad or Mac. • UNIVERSAL A single app for iPhone, iPad AND Mac. Buy on any device, install on the others for free. • WORKS WITH YOUR SAMPLER Cubasis, AUM, GarageBand, Logic Pro, Audiobus, FluidSynth, ROMpler, MIDI hardware — anything that speaks SoundFont 2. WHO IT'S FOR • Live keyboard players using an iPad on stage • Producers wanting clean libraries in their DAW • Sound designers recombining banks • Church studios, music schools • Composers and arrangers • Beatmakers sampling from SF2 ABOUT THE FORMAT SoundFont 2 (.sf2) is an open standard created by E-mu/Creative in 1995, still very much alive in hardware ROMplers, free plugins and mobile samplers. Rsf2 respects 100% of the spec. GET STARTED Tap "Add .sf2 files", point at a file in your iCloud Drive, mark the presets you love, name it, generate. That's it. Make your library a place where you can actually FIND things.

TwinPath enables parallel effects processing using your existing Audio Units, without configuring busses or complex routings. It hides the details of managing multiple signal paths, and offers a compact, quickly accessible control interface. The result is a consistent setup you can easily recreate in any DAW, regardless of how each host handles audio routing. Among its possible applications, TwinPath pairs especially well with delay effects for dynamic performances. Shifting focus from deep editing to switching between (or blending) entire modules opens up a new perspective and new features – especially when feedback delays are involved. And of course, both approaches can be applied at the same time. Once inserted into a track’s effects chain, TwinPath handles splitting and merging audio streams and provides several convenience features. It offers two main classes of operation: CROSS-FADE • Blend between two effects chains using a single control • Switchable pre/post operation: pre mode preserves effect tails and lets feedback effects "breathe", while post mode offers instant, direct control DUAL MONO • Run different effects chains for Left/Right, Mid/Side, or a continuous blend between them • Channel mapping and FX bias are smooth, performance-friendly controls • Quick and efficient workflow replacement that overcomes functional limits of stock dual mono modes, such as restrictions on independent preset loading PLEASE NOTE: • An AUv3-compatible host is required to use this app
