Dual-oscillator drawable synth – A deep, drawable synth built for evolving textures and sculpted sound. Now available — launch price for a limited time.
RAVEN is a deep, expressive wavetable-morphing synthesizer designed for evolving textures and sculpted sound on iOS.
Built for musicians, producers, and sound designers, Raven delivers drawable waveforms, real-time morphing, and a full effects chain in a clean, performance-ready interface — whether you’re crafting pads, designing sounds, or playing live.
Key Features:
Dual drawable oscillators with wavetable morphing
Utility oscillator (sub, ring mod, FM, noise, harmonics)
Classic ladder filter with 12/24dB slope
Dual ADSR envelopes (Filter + Amp)
LFO for pitch, filter, PWM, morph, and amplitude
12-band parametric EQ
Delay, reverb, chorus, and distortion FX
56 factory presets with QR code sharing
Touch-optimized performance controls
AUv3 instrument support
CoreMIDI & Bluetooth MIDI
Designed for iPhone and iPad
An iPad synth like Raven sits in a pretty unique sweet spot between desktop power and hands-on playability. The touchscreen changes how you interact with synthesis in a big way:
Drawable waveforms → way more intuitive with your finger than a mouse
Real-time morphing → you can literally “play” timbre by dragging
Performance controls → gestures = expression (kind of like an instrument, not just software)
It puts it closer to apps like Moog Model D, KORG Gadget, or Animoog Z—but Raven leans more into custom waveform design, which is more like desktop wavetable synths (think Serum/Vital style, but touch-first).
Where iPad synths shine:
Sketching ideas quickly without a full DAW
Sound design that feels tactile
Playing live with MIDI controllers or just the screen
AUv3 support → you can load it inside apps like AUM or GarageBand
Raven specifically looks like it’s aiming for that “Serum-style sound design but playable like an instrument” niche on iOS.
Introducing Parrot for iOS – a new Klevgrand product that will take you down a rabbit hole of
rhythmic exploration and creative accidents. From subtle beat variation or harmonic accents to
glitchy mayhem, Parrot adds something very unique and interesting to almost anything. This
effect will help ignite your next dance-floor hit or add that extra je ne sais quoi of
flavour to your mix. Whatever you feed the Parrot, it won’t let you down!
Eat, sleep, rave, repeat.
Parrot creates rhythmic patterns by sampling small slices of incoming audio, and
repeating it in a sequenced loop. With detailed control over the loop length, pitch,
dynamics and filtering, the result can easily be turned into the beat and sound you want
while still retaining the connection to the original source.
Parrot is designed to be a creative machine for unpredictable grooves, broken loops and irregular
textures that you couldn’t program by hand, especially when subtle timing shifts or pitch moves push the
loop into new territories. It syncs to your DAW or runs freely, encouraging off-grid experiments. Even
small changes can create a new pattern, like a kaleidoscope. Let’s start experimenting!
FEATURES
Looping live-sampling with variable length + fade-in/out
‣ Step sequencer, up to 16 steps
‣ Set pitch and accent per step
‣ Variable note values for evolving rhythms
‣ Alternating panning following sequencer
‣ Evolving filter section with multiple modes
‣ Evolving volume curve
‣ Separate dry-signal filter
‣ DAW sync or free‐running mode
‣ Humanizer for subtle timingvariation
‣ Mute/Solo during sampling
‣ Lock parameters for savepreset-switching

iPad Loops is an iOS music production blog dedicated to exposing the best iPad apps musicians, producers, and Djs. This is not a database of every app. It is, however, one of useful recommendations from someone with many years in music production. I try to update it on a daily basis (ok sometimes every two days) and I do my best to post useful apps only. My name is Jason Donnelly (Dj Puzzle).
Some of the apps that contain my sounds are Synth One, EG Segments, Hammerhead, Retronyms AudioCopy, Audio Evolution Mobile, and iMPC Pro. My work is published by Roland, Antares, Magix, Soundtrack Loops, Sample Logic, Acoustica, Native Instruments, The Grammt Museum and many more.
