DC-9 Overdrive is a circuit modeled overdrive plug-in that emulates the famous Ibanez® TS9 Tube Screamer. The DSP algorithms in DC-9 take into account the entire schematic, using the latest modeling techniques. This gives you an authentic analog sound that matches the character of the physical circuit.
DC-9 is an Audio Unit Extension that works inside host apps. Just open up your favorite host that supports Audio Units and add it as an effect. The controls expand when touched so they can be easily seen while tweaking. DC-9 brings the distinctive overdrive crunch to your favorite iOS DAW. Compatible with Cubasis, MTS, AUM, and Ferrite Recording Studio. Note, Audio Units are not compatible with iPad 2.
DC-9 gets its name from the Diode Clipper circuit used to create the distortion. Accurate modeling of the clipper by circuit simulation gives DC-9 an edge over the common distortion plug- in. The effect was carefully tuned using A/B comparisons to the original stop box. Blamsoft brings their experience creating top notch plug-ins for the desktop to iOS. The same algorithm is found in the popular Rack Extension for Propellerhead Reason. You get a desktop quality algorithm at an iOS friendly price.
RP-1 – Dual Digital Delay FX. Two separate (stereo) delay lines allow for a wide range of effects ranging from basic slapback and ping-ping type echos to complex modulations and soundscapes. Very powerful loaded with features.
* Overview
– Digital Stereo Delay with High- and Lowpass filters, Stereo spread and Looping
– Separate modulation Delay for Chorus, Vibrato, Flanger and Panning effects
– Both sections can be bypassed individually
– Mod section can be routed pre or post delay
– Delay Times from 10ms to 2000ms (or 1/32 to 2bars)
– Tempo Sync via AudioUnit Host or Ableton Link
– Tap Temp and Manual Tempo
– Normal, Dotted and Triplet
– Stereo Spread
– Simple 1-Button Looping
Blamsoft makes a killer suite of audio unit effects (AUX) for iOS and a really awesome Moog Voyager emulator. They are all universal now. I recommend getting all of them!
Back in January of 2016 I wrote about Kymatic Aum. I had a sneak peak at the app and man let me tell you this day couldn’t have come soon enough. I am so stoked to announce the official release of Kymatic AUM a new mixing desk app for iOS. Jonatan Liljedahl who is known for apps like AUFX and the Oscillator brings us another game changing app for iOS.
/// Introductory price for a limited time only, 50% off! ///
AUM is the flexible audio mixer, recorder, and connection hub for your iPad, iPhone and iPod touch.
Connect hardware inputs and outputs, Audio Unit extensions, Inter-App Audio apps, Audiobus, soundfile players, built-in signal processing and filters, in any configuration you want.
Route anything to anywhere with mix-busses, effect sends, audiobus ports, and external multi-channel audio interfaces.
Play hosted synths and instruments using the built-in keyboard or external MIDI controllers, or sequence them from other apps using Virtual MIDI.
Record mixes, individual tracks, or both, straight into the storage space of AudioShare (no copying of files needed).
Play back recordings, soundfiles and loops as channel sources in the mixer for backing tracks, further processing or mixing.
Route MIDI in any way you like using the MIDI matrix.
Synchronize everything with the sample-accurate transport clock and play in time with other apps or devices using Ableton Link, a new technology that synchronizes beat, phase and tempo of Ableton Live and Link-enabled iOS apps over a wireless network.
Includes built-in processing nodes for various stereo processing, Mid/Side balance and conversion, EQs and filters, limiting, clipping and saturation. Or use any 3rd party Audio Unit extension or Inter-App Audio effect.
All controls in the mixer can be controlled via MIDI, including parameters of hosted and built-in plugins.

Votan Telepathy v2.0 is a groundbreaking multi-purpose synthesis engine, harnessing cutting edge technologies with traditional sound sculpting techniques. The power beneath Votan Telepathy is its cloud and communication platform within which you can create sounds and instantly share between your devices (iPad/iPhone/Mac), or even with friends.
The Votan Telepathy Synthesis Engine is also available as an 32/64 bit Audio Unit plugin. The iOS app can then act as an ultra low latency touch controller for multiple instances of the synth in your favourite DAW (Logic, Ableton etc). You can create new sounds on your iPad/iPhone, that magically appear in the Audio Unit to be used in a professional DAW environment.
What’s New in Version 2.0
** We’ve given Votan Telepathy a full service and upgrade to v2.0 **
New Features:
– Hyper Oscillators
– Noise Oscillators
– Extra Filter Types
– Refined Modulation Matrix now with 8 slots, new destinations to all synth/fx parameters.

– New Delay Types
– New Perform Assign
– iPhone Version
** Old presets from v1.5 do NOT load into new engine **
*Oscillators:
4 x Free Range Oscillators
– Band-limited Virtual Analogue waveforms. Free-range means they can be unlocked from key frequencies, and then used intelligently as audio rate modulators for FM and Ring Modulation. You can also morph between the different wave-shapes (Sine, Triangle, Sawtooth, Square).
– Hyper Oscillators with up to 7 x Detuned Saw/Square waves.
– 3 x Noise Oscillators (White, Pink and Purple).

*Binaural Beat Generator:
Votan Telepathy has been built with binaural synthesis in mind. You can assign each oscillator to play through Left or Right channels to create binaural beats with extended synthesis capabilities. The system can create all brain frequencies from 0.01hz up to megahertz. Get experimenting with the invisible frequencies of the mind.
*Votan Telepathy Audio Unit:
Votan Telepathy is also available an 32/64 bit AudioUnit and is a direct mirror of the iOS app and fully compatible with all presets. Your preset library is synced over all devices and apps.
Imagine the power of being able to create new soundscapes on your iDevice, then they magically appear in the DAW work session. Tweak sounds on the fly, then polish them into your productions.
*Votan Connect:
The iOS app of course can also act as a touch controller for the audio unit offering almost zero latency control of multiple instances of the audio unit plugin. Totally integrated synthesis and control like never seen before.
*Votan Cloud:
The Votan Cloud is a powerful integrated Preset Management System. Users can create soundscapes and store them in their own device or in the Votan Cloud. In the Votan Cloud patches can be instantly shared with other users. The VotanDSP team will be in constant creation of new sounds so they will be instantly available for all users of the system. You can chose to make your preset library public or private.
iPad 4+ recommended for iOS synthesis.
iPad 2+ for controlling the Audio Unit.
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.
