Dropophone Free App By Lullatone

I stumbled across this app by chance. It was one of those “customers also bought” apps in the app store. I’m glad I found it though. It’s quite simple but that is what is appealing about it. Clean design. Very minimal. You will like this if you like groups who make music like Lullatone (which I am now a fan thanks to this app).

Create your own minimalist melodies with this exciting new app. Based on Lullatone’s album “Little Songs About Raindrops,” this app allows you to make songs that sound like drips and drops falling on a tiny orchestra of instruments. Pressing the multi-colored raindrops triggers notes that loop every six seconds. Combine different colored drops and notes to compose your own rainy-day melodic backdrops. A metronome is also included to help you keep time. This app is super simple on purpose. Simple is magic!

Dropophone is available for free

iSynth AirPlay For iPad Review
Author View comments Tags Tags: , , ,

Wireless Synthesizer For iPad

iSynth (not to be confused with the iPhone photo editing app) is a virtual monophonic analog-synthesizer for your iPad. iSynth is designed and optimized for live performances. So far NOT my favorite synth. This is version 1 and there is no support for CoreMidi. The key selling point to this synth is the fact that you can stream the audio from it to an AirPlay device. I do not have an AirPlay amplification system so I could not test this feature. Other than that it’s pretty much your basic monophonic dual oscillator synth for the iPad. I did not like how the knobs behaved. They were difficult to control. I also did not like the fact that this synth can not be flipped horizontally. I use an Alesis iO Dock and it is designed to be used horizontally.

Features At A Glance:

✔ Dual Oscillator:
– Generating square, triangle, saw tooth and reverse saw tooth waves.
– Octave selector
– Lag processor
– Cross-Fader
– Oscillator fine-tuning
– Oscillator synchronization

✔ LFO Filter:
– Supporting square, triangle, saw tooth and reverse saw tooth waves.
– Filter, vibrato and tremolo modulation

✔ ADSR Volume Envelope Generator:
– Control attack, decay, sustain and release

✔ ADSR Filter Envelope Generator:
– Control attack, decay, sustain and release

✔ Low Pass Filter:
– Frequency cutoff from 10 kHz

✔ Arpeggio Modul:
– Up to five notes
– Select between up, down, up/down and random playing

✔ Keyboard:
– Switch between 4 octaves

✔ Patches:
– Shiped with default patches
– Save unlimited user defined patches
– Share your patches with others via iTunes filesharing

✔ AirPlay:
– Stream directly from iSynth to any AirPlay compatible device
