A year ago, a new synthesizer/sampler combination was released on iPad but unfortunately the app doesn’t reach a lot of interest. Maybe also because the developer doesn’t updated the app regular. It’s a quite cool app with a lot of cool features but without updating stuff for the current iOS, it’s hard to support such an app but good news this week, there is a new version available. The developer released today a new version with MIDI, AudioBus support and the possibility to create own presets. Honestly, I’m happy to say finally an update for this app.
Available here: Moon Beam Synth/Sampler
Inspired in part by the Casio Sk-1’s lo-fi sonics/sampling, the Moon Beam also adds features only possible in the touch screen world: bend keys independently!!! You can of coarse also bend all voices in sync using the touch pad.
The Moon Beam Synth/Sampler gives you:
- Unique key independant pitch bending
- 2 sample/oscillator layers for each voice… or split them to top and bottom keyboards.
- Effects (Delay/Reverb,Filter,LFO,Vinyl Noise,Distortion)
- Easy sampling
- Easy sample editing
- 4 octave keyboard + 2 pitch ribbons
- 1 assignable effects touch pad
New in Version 2.0.1
- MIDI support
- AudioBus
- Presets (Default and User created)
