Fractal Bits by Alexander Zolotov is a true crazy drum synthesizer for iOS with which you can design over 4 billion different unique sounds.

Alexander Zolotov, an iOS developer from the very beginning, has brought us such great apps as SunVox or VirtualANS and is back with another crazy development. Fractal Bits is an AUv3-ready drum synth for iOS that is based on Fractal algorithms that can generate over four billion unique sounds. With 4 billion sounds you have a lot of fun.

The app features sets of 12 drums that correspond to a code of 8 characters that can be saved, copied and paste as a plain text. Fractal Bits offers six additional MIDI controllable processing parameters. So that the sounds are not lost, you record in real-time audio to WAV (32-bit) and export them as WAV file, SunVox file or as text. Another great app from Mr. Zolotov which can be useful if you want to have crazy samples for your hardware like the Elektron Digitakt or iOS sampler. Btw, the app is also available for Android.
