"Patch Morpher is an innovative sound generator, patch editor, librarian and interactive performance tool for synthesisers.
Just as an artist mixes paints to create new colours, Patch Morpher allows you to create new sounds from your favourite patches & presets.
Patches can be organised into scenes for live performance, and you can then morph or mutate between them to create totally original new sounds & patches, controlling hundreds of parameters with one finger, all in real-time. You can even keep playing your synth as the sound evolves.
A full editor is available to allow you to further tweak your sounds, taking advantage of the iPad's touch screen to give you full control whilst allowing you to view many parameters at a single glance with no hidden menus. Patches can be saved on your iPad so you won't run out of storage slots on your synthesiser.
The application also provides support for converting patches between the Prophet 08 and the Prophet 12. And you can also play the Moog Voyager "paraphonically": simulating up to 3-note polyphony!!
Patch Morpher uses Core MIDI, and the Apple camera connection kit and a USB cable, or a MIDI interface, are required to connect your iPad to your synthesiser.
Patch Morpher is currently only compatible with the following synthesisers:
- Moog Voyager
- Dave Smith Prophet 08
- Dave Smith Prophet 12
- Korg KingKorg
- Mutable Instruments Shruthi-1
(more coming soon!)
Please see our web-site for a video demo, user manual & free patch downloads.
Patch Morpher will totally change how you create sounds for your synthesiser: it's easy & fun to create inspiring sounds, plus you'll have more time to play & make music!"
"Play the Moog Voyager paraphonically - addressing each of its three oscillators independently!"
Video description: "Little demo of the Paraphonic Scene for the Moog Voyager in the iPad app "Patch Morpher" from Jazzman Ltd. This is not just an editor and a patch morpher allows to create new sound morphing from one sound to another, but allows your Moog Voyager to become a real paraphonic synthesizer, with all the three oscillators perfectly in tune!
Piccola demo dell'app per iPad "Patch Morpher" di Jazzman Ltd.
L'app non è soo un semplice editor per vari sintetizzatori tra cui il Voyager (la licenza costa circa 8 dollari ed è presente per il prophet 12, prophet 08, blofeld waldorf e tanti altri) ma oltre alla creazione di nuove patch unendo i vari suoni presenti, permette con la scena "paraphonic" al Voyager di diventare un synth parafonico, con i tre oscillatori che si accordano automaticamente a seconda dell'accordo suonato. Soccia ragaz, che roba!
consigliatissima!"

"Have fun making music and creating amazing & unique sounds with this powerful synthesiser for iPhone & iPad.
Zed Synth is easy to learn, with live graphs throughout and built-in help for every knob, but it's a real powerhouse synth combining virtual analog synthesis with physical modelling. This innovative blend of technologies allows you to create rich and immersive sounds, ranging from bright electronic dance music patches to subtle and expressive solo instruments.
Zed Synth is also a unique audio effect processor: you can route external sounds through the synth and completely transform them: use the microphone and transform your voice, turn drum machines into strummed guitars, or radically transform the sound of any other Audiobus-compatible app!
Over 140 presets covering a wide range of styles provide a great starting point to making your own music. And you can easily share your patches with friends and other IOS musicians.
Key features:
- Wave-Shaping oscillators: inspired by 1950s vacuum-tube technology, 4 parameters allow you to create a vast array of original oscillator shapes which can be modulated in real-time.
- Physical Modelling: a sophisticated resonator can be either struck by a mallet or excited by the synth section (including external audio) with different forms of interaction to simulate blown, bowed or struck models.
- Unique Audio effect: the Zed Synth can process external audio via Audiobus and pass it through its string model. This unique effect can turn unpitched sounds, such as beats, into pitched sounds, akin to what you could do with a vocoder, only more responsively and with a much richer timbre. Using this approach, Zed Synth can radically transform the sound of any other Audiobus-compatible synth on IOS.
- A unique “Spring Box” effect capable of emulating the full 88-string sympathetic resonance of a piano soundboard, or simulating the body resonance of a musical instrument.
- Oscilloscopes throughout the user interface provide clear visual feedback and ease of use.
- Built-in Help system throughout the app to explain each of the modules and all the parameters.
- A Powerful Modulation system makes it incredibly easy to add modulations from a variety of sources to any of the synth’s parameters.
- The Granulator: a different take on the ubiquitous arpeggiator, the granulator can periodically or randomly retrigger the sound, and also vary the pitch. This makes it possible to create rhythmic chorded sounds with a human feel to them, or completely chaotic sounds like raindrops on a tin roof.
- Synth Overview displays the signal path and routing of the various modules, as well as making it easy to jump around sections when editing.
- Effects to further enhance the sound, including a stereo expander to enrich the spatial complexity of the signal.
- iPhone support: Zed Synth has been specially developed to run on both iPhones and iPads. Actual polyphony will depend on the speed of the device and older devices will not be able to recreate a full 88-string piano reverberation effect.
- Patch Sharing: Zed synth makes it easy to import & share patches with friends via e-mail.
- MIDI Learn mode so you can quickly & easily map your MIDI controller’s knobs to the synth’s parameters.
- Audiobus (including presets), Inter-App Audio and Core MIDI.
- 4x Oversampling: this greatly increases the quality of the sound and reduces aliasing at high frequencies. It can be disabled to reduce CPU utilisation.
Headphones, an external controller keyboard and a sustain pedal are highly recommended to get the most out of Zed Synth. Older devices will have reduced polyphony.
Full support and user manual provided online.
Zed Synth is a true innovative powerhouse - get jamming!"
"Note: this synthesizer concept is a personal design and not associated with Behringer or MUSIC Tribe Global Brands Ltd
POSITRON 16 is an analog polyphonic synthesizer concept that focus on morphing, with continuously variable waveforms, filter modes, arpeggiator patterns and more.
It features plenty of hands-on controls, from the three wheels, the Morpher joystick and a fullwidth ribbon controller to polyphonic aftertouch, macro controls, dual pedal inputs and even a CV antenna socket. This will make sure you are always in control of your sounds and performances even during improvisations, and the intuitive LED-collar encoders with push button function make creative sound programming a breeze.
"Here we have the new analogue oscillator module from WORNG Electronics ‘Acronym’. It’s a 12HP Eurorack module with stable tracking, thru zero phase modulation (musical FM!), subs, wave morphing and folding. It’s fair to say it can sound pretty beastly with lovely options for self patching (subs to TZPM or subs to morphing are my favourites) which creates some really rich chewy and monstrous harmonics.

WORNG Electronics' ACRONYM is a new type of morphing analog oscillator that also features two sub outputs and a built-in CV controlled wavemorpher, tied together in a spacious, ergonomic design. With a triangle oscillator core capable of thru-zero modulation, and a unique voltage-controlled wavemorphing output, the ACRONYM is fantastic for creating unique textures. Self-patch with the five outputs for some incredibly chaotic sounds and the components and layout have been designed for hands-on performance and tweaking. WORNG knows how to make great-sounding modules that are fun, and with the ACRONYM, you get the pinnacle of this philosophy.
ACRONYM FEATURES
Analog triangle-core VCO
5 Outputs for sine, tri, 2x sub-octaves, and wavemorph
Wavemorph seamlessly goes from triangle–square–saw–folded sine
Ergonomic design for hot-knobbing
CMOS-based sub-oscillators

The Voltage Circus consists of two rows of 3 voltage inputs and outputs that can be chained together.
Voltages can be added , subtracted or an offset can be applied per channel.
The inputs and outputs are buffered and can be connected with shorting bars.
A switch limits each rom to provide 100% or 33% to the mixer channel to make subtraction possible or prevent clipping.
One use of the hVC is for example transposing of sequences, adding subtle animation to pitch signals or mix wild CVs to provide complex noise sources
