What’s New in Version 1.1
Fixed pitch not working at ultra high setting
Renamed confusing terms :”Echo” is now “Time” and “STOP” is now “REPEAT” to make things clearer.
Time control is smoother
A modern perspective to the dub-siren. Can also be used as a weird sound effect generator or theremin. Using the touch-pad you can control the volume and pitch at the same time. You can draw the envelope and “REPEAT” set to on, you will loop this pattern forever or fading out like an echo with “FADE” turned on. You can sync the patterns by placing and removing finger to the beat of the music. You can choose from three sound sources, modulate with four LFO shapes and adjust the modulation speed and depth. By controlling “TIME”, you give the echo effect by slowing down and lowering the pitch at the same time or vice-versa. You can come up with some interesting sound effects from synth drones to retro computer game noises. Although this has a basic repeat effect, it may still benefit from a reverb unit or an echo chamber as well. We aim to add more effects and sounds with updates.
