MorphWiz iPad Synth

MorphWiz $9.99

The goal here was to create an instrument that would allow the seamless morphing of the audio and visual domain while delivering a seamless musical experience. I believe the iPhone/iPad multitouch platform opens up a whole new world of creation of electronic musical instruments and we’re proud MorphWiz is our first major offering. My experience and involvement with the Haken Continuum and extraordinary Bebot app brought to life an advanced pitch control system that is still uncharted territory for many in today’s music instrument world. This is the heart of MorphWiz.

What’s New in Version 1.2
• New greatly improved graphics and interface
• Now works with Audiobus
• Updated for iPhone 5.

WARNING: do not update if you are running iOS 5.x, until a startup issue can be fixed.

NOTE: If you have custom presets you need to continue using now, please wait to update. If you do update now, your presets will NOT be lost, but they will not appear in the app until an upcoming update.

Note: We removed the internal sequencer in favor of supporting one of the many great apps available to you with Audiobus.
