About

REPUN

Read full description

REPUN is an analog-minded chorus and vibrato processor for iPhone and iPad. Use it as a standalone audio app or insert the included AUv3 effect in a compatible host such as GarageBand. Its sound is built around BBD-style delay behavior, band limiting, compander contour, and controlled waveform instability. The result moves with tonal weight instead of sounding like a clean digital modulation layer placed on top of the source. FEATURES - BBD-style chorus and vibrato character - Free-running or host-tempo-synced modulation - Continuous dry-to-chorus-to-vibrato Mix control - Adjustable Rate and Depth - LFO Wave shaping - BREEZE drift and random-motion control - Instrument and line input modes - 2x and 4x processing modes - Standalone iOS/iPadOS app - AUv3 audio effect for compatible hosts TRY BEFORE UNLOCKING The working release model assumes 10 minutes of full-featured active use, shared between the standalone app and AUv3 extension. A one-time, non-consumable In-App Purchase unlocks unlimited use in both formats, with Restore Purchases available in the standalone app. Confirm this behavior in the production build before submission. REPUN works on guitars, keyboards, synthesizers, pads, drones, and melodic layers that need width, instability, or animated pitch movement.

About

TurboBeast

Read full description

TurboBeast is an engine you play: a drift synth with a gas pedal instead of a keyboard. Every rev is synthesized live from a combustion pulse train -- no samples, no loops. Pick a machine, start the engine, and drive the sound: squeeze the gas, stab the brake, bang through the gears, and slide the rear end until the tires sing. SIX MACHINES - 2ST RACER -- ringing two-stroke bike - SUPERSPORT -- screaming inline-four - CRUISER -- lazy V-twin thump - DRIFT SEDAN -- turbo four built to slide - ROTARY COUPE -- high-strung rotary - V8 MUSCLE -- heavy eight-cylinder rumble REAL DRIVING CONTROLS - ENGINE START, gas pedal with LATCH, brake and steering - Sequential or H-pattern shifting, gears 1-6 with real ratios - Gas + brake together breaks the rear loose: drift, tire squeal, backfire - Rev limiter stutter when you pin it SET THE SCENE - 6 tires x 5 road surfaces x 4 exhausts x 4 stages (highway overpass echo, local street, rural road, warehouse) - SUB layer for chest-deep low end, adjustable brake BITE and FADE PLAY IT LIKE AN INSTRUMENT - MIDI notes pitch the engine, so you can write riffs with it - 12 ready-made MIDI controller maps, pitch bend rides the gas - Works as an AUv3 plugin in GarageBand, Logic Pro, AUM, Cubasis and more - A guided first-launch tour points at the controls that matter FREE VERSION Free to drive: 2ST RACER and DRIFT SEDAN with every control, every tire, road, exhaust and stage. TURBOBEAST PRO -- ONE-TIME PURCHASE, NO SUBSCRIPTION - All six machines - Record, export and share your runs For iPhone and iPad. A Mac version is also available.
