Konstrukt vs P422 Fairuz

Konstrukt is a patchable instrument for iPad and iPhone. Design the surface you play, sequence it, give it sound with built-in instruments and your own AUv3 plug-ins, mix and record it — and when you want to go deeper, unlock the visual graph underneath and rewire all of it. Standalone, and as an AUv3 in your host. SURFACES YOU DESIGN • The KB-1 keyboard suite — piano, diatonic chord pads, scale-locked keyboard, MPE Seaboard ribbon, MPE Strings grid (4ths) and a 4×4 drum-pad grid, each with an arpeggiator. Successor to the KB-1 Expressive Keyboard Suite. • Knobs, faders, XY pads, buttons, live visualizers and channel strips on a snapping grid, in pages like hardware banks. Bind any control to MIDI CC — or, with the unlock, to any parameter in the patch. A SUITE OF SEQUENCERS • Drum, melody, chord, analog and CC lanes, the Drum Grid, a Metropolis-style Stage Seq and a Matrix note grid — tap to edit, with per-step velocity, probability, trigger conditions, ratchets and microtiming. • Patterns up to four bars, eight banks per lane. Record into patterns step by step or live, then fix it in the grid. A Looper with quantize, undo and expression capture. • Players: one tap on a lane writes a pattern from a style and a Complexity slider — drums with fills, a bass under your chords, chord stabs and pushes. • One patch key and scale every lane can follow, custom scales, and chord lanes with their own rhythm layer. INSTRUMENTS AND YOUR PLUG-INS • Built in: a two-oscillator Synth, a Wavetable synth, Drums, MegaSaw, a Sampler and a loop Slicer, plus Drive, Filter, Delay, Reverb, Compressor, EQ, Chorus and Phaser — each with its own panel. • Host your AUv3 instruments, effects and MIDI effects inside the patch (standalone app), with floating plug-in windows, presets and bindable parameters. THE RACK • A strip per instrument: fader, pan, mute and solo, inserts, pre- or post-fader sends to bus strips, sidechain, MIDI Learn, master inserts, and scenes recalled with a fade. Hardware synths join as External Instruments. • Bring a mic or guitar in on its own channel. Record the master and stems to 24-bit WAV. Tap tempo, metronome with count-in, Ableton Link, MIDI clock in and out. Multi-output routing on a multi-channel interface. UNLOCK — THE GRAPH EDITOR (in-app purchase) Everything above runs on one visual graph that carries MIDI and audio. Unlock the editor to rewire it: • 80+ node kinds — arps, scale quantizers, chords, echoes, swing, euclidean rhythms, LFOs and CC tools, wired MIDI In → processors → instruments or MIDI Out. • Components — save a cluster of nodes as one card with real ports, its surface cards included; drop saved components into any patch and edit them inside. • Audio on the same canvas — cable instruments through effect chains and hosted effects, split sends to buses, key a sidechain. The Rack is this graph seen as strips. • Emergence generators — Game of Life, Turing machine, Wolfram rules, Markov chains, bouncing balls, a Lorenz attractor — patterns that evolve instead of loop. Every keyboard is a routable node, every knob can drive any parameter. Factory graph patches open and play without the unlock. The unlock is the editor and nothing else. WITH HARDWARE, OTHER APPS OR A DESKTOP DAW • MIDI out over CoreMIDI, extra output ports and an always-on virtual port: 16 channels plus MPE. • One USB cable to a Mac, or Bluetooth MIDI — two MPE surfaces and a controller that reshapes per track, no driver needed. • As an AUv3, load Konstrukt as a MIDI processor or as an instrument in hosts such as AUM, Logic Pro, GarageBand, Cubasis, Drambo and Loopy Pro. PRICING One-time purchases, no subscription. The app is the whole instrument; the graph editor is a single optional unlock. One purchase covers iPad and iPhone. Requires iOS 17 or iPadOS 17 or later; on iPhone the app runs in landscape. Plug-in hosting, audio input and recording are part of the standalone app. No user data is collected.

P422 Fairuz is a four-band op-amp parametric EQ that moves past hardware — the punch and harmonic density of classic op-amp circuits, with capabilities the originals never had. Shape your sound with HIGH, HI-MID, LO-MID and LOW bands, each with three selectable curves (Bell, Contour, Contour X2) and proportional Q: wide stays wide, narrow finds itself. LO and HI shelves with complementary dip behavior, switchable HPF/LPF, and the TREMOR circuit laying a sub-bass foundation below 30 Hz. Character comes from the circuit, not just the curve: OUT drives the op-amp output stage, VOICE adds drive on top of it, and HAMMER adds the output transformer after it, for body, density and saturation — op-amp color available even with the EQ bands off. Blend it all in parallel with the MIX control, no DAW routing needed. FEATURES - Four op-amp EQ bands with Bell / Contour / Contour X2 shapes - Proportional Q — musical at any width - Stepped or continuous frequency modes - LO / HI shelves with complementary dip - TREMOR sub-bass circuit below 30 Hz - Switchable HPF / LPF with position options - Op-amp output stage: OUT drive, VOICE drive and the HAMMER output transformer - MIX parallel blend and Dual Mono L/R behavior - Spectrum visualizer: drag the band dots, tap one for its card; IN/OUT analyzer with freeze, range, resolution, speed and tilt - A/B states and 276 factory presets with notes, tags, search and favorites - Out & Trim linked gain staging - Zero latency, optional oversampling FORMATS - AUv3 plug-in for AUM, Logic Pro, GarageBand, Cubasis and other AUv3 hosts - Standalone app with mic/interface input Bring console-grade op-amp tone to your iPad and iPhone.
