Update: audio demos previously posted here, and iTunes details captured below for the archives.

"We are proud to introduce Magellan - the bold new analog modeling professional synthesizer for the iPad! Not content with just one synth, we gave Magellan TWO independent polyphonic synth engines. Individually or together, they deliver a new powerful warmth to the sound of iOS music.

Complete with a full effects rack, a total of six oscillators, dual filters per engine, multiple unison stages, extensive modulation matrix, dedicated arpeggiators, powerful MIDI capabilities, and a polyphonic step-sequencer - the aural possibilities with Magellan are infinite!

All sounds in this video were made with Magellan! Please visit http://www.Yonac.com to see Magellan's full spec list!"
