About

LogSynth

Features
Read full description

LogSynth is a polyphonic virtual-analog synthesizer built for people who care what's actually happening in the signal path, not just what the preset browser looks like. Every voice runs five anti-aliased oscillators (sine, triangle, saw, pulse with PWM, and a band-limited impulse train) plus a dedicated sub-oscillator and noise source, mixed per-voice with independent amp envelopes. Chunky oscillators, crisp effects and a zero-delay-feedback state-variable filter — switchable low/high/bandpass. The drive effect is powered by a physically modeled diode circuit, numerically integrated rather than a lookup-table approximation, so pushing it into saturation behaves the way an actual analog drive would. FEATURES - 8-voice polyphony, 5 oscillators + sub + noise per voice - Zero-delay-feedback state-variable filter with resonant feedback and diode drive saturation - 5 independent oscillator envelopes plus a dedicated filter envelope - 2 assignable LFOs and an 8-slot modulation matrix - Built-in chorus, delay, FDN reverb, and 4-mode distortion - 41 factory presets across Bass, Lead, Pluck, and Effects - One-tap patch randomizer with adjustable intensity - Real-time oscilloscope, on-screen keyboard, and CoreMIDI input - Runs standalone or as an AUv3 instrument inside AU hosts Whether you're sound designing from scratch or dropping it into a DAW as a plugin, Logsynth gives you the same engine everywhere — no watered-down mobile version, no feature gating between standalone and plugin modes.

SL Tune is a vocal pitch-correction and tone effect for iPhone and iPad. Insert it on a vocal track in a compatible AUv3 host. Choose a key and scale, or select the allowed notes yourself. Natural mode preserves small pitch movements, Hard gives faster correction, and Robot locks pitch to the selected root across octaves. Six controls shape the sound: Retune, Humanize, Formant, Snap, Echo and Mix. Formant changes the tonal balance. Mix blends processed and original audio. Start with one of six factory presets: Classic Hard, Trap Lock, Silk Vocal, Clean Fix, Robot Grid and Echo Adlib. Save and load your own presets locally. The resizable interface adapts to portrait, landscape and compact host windows. Use SL Tune as an AUv3 effect in a compatible music host, or open the standalone app to preview and adjust the controls. Pitch correction works best on a single vocal line. It is not designed to tune a complete mix or separate voices from background music.
