Introducing RollBud - DJ Style Rolls and Trance Gate Effects - AUv3 FX for iOS
RollBud - Trance Gate & Roll FX video upload by Cem Olcay
"I’ve released my new app RollBud for DJ style rolls and trance gate effects.
- The XY-pad is customizable for both X-axis (beat lengths) and Y-axis (envelope or mix controls), and it’s also MIDI controllable.
- You can record your movements and play them back. They are saved in iCloud and also the recordings can be triggered with MIDI as well.
- The roll mode has a reversed roll mode playing the loops backwards, and the trance gate mode has a inverted envelope mode for fun.
- Envelope’s rise and fall ratio, curve (logarithmic to linear to exponential) and amount, as well as the dry/wet mix can be set on the UI.
More technical details on the effects:
- Roll mode: records the input signal and starts to loop the last beat from the recorded buffer. The loop length is selected on the xy-pad. Applies the envelope on the each loop. The live signal continues to run underneath and with the dry/wet mix you can balance the mix as you’d like.
- Trance gate: applies the envelope to the live input signal. The envelope duration is selected on the xy-pad. You can use the dry/wet mix to balance the intensity of the effect."

ShapeStage Morphing AUv3 FX for iOS
video upload by Cem Olcay
"I’ve released my new FX app ShapeStage. It has 4 stages of with drive, character, pitch shifting, time effects, stereo spread, and granular texture generator. You can morph between the stages smoothly with the crossfader at the top. Also, it has 3 LFOs, 2 EGs (MIDI triggered or looping), and an envelope follower. With the mod matrix, you can modulate the stage parameters, stage morph, and mod parameters (LFO rate, EG decay etc) and create complex modulations as well."

NoiseSpace - Noise textures and backgrounds for iOS and Mac. First preview.
video upload by Igor Vasiliev
"This app ditches factory presets! :) Just hit the "Create" button, and you'll get a brand-new preset each time, with unique sound and rich texture. All you need to do is tweak a few parameters to better match your vision.
~
NoiseSpace is an experimental generator based on simplex noise, which is then used in a granular synthesis algorithm. This design allows for the creation of a vast array of diverse waveforms rich in harmonics with a rich low-frequency spectrum. The generator is controlled by just a few simple parameters. Despite its somewhat chaotic and atonal nature, it is highly suitable for generating industrial sound structures, ominous, foreboding noise and backgrounds.

Stacks & Korg MS-20
video upload by Cong Burn
"This new looper focused view will be added in a future update
Available now: https://www.congburn.co.uk/stacks"



"Key Features
4 track granular looper, synced with DAW
4 voice polysynth with two-dimensional wavetable morphing, 4 FM modes, sub osc & unison
3 filter modes: dual hpf/lpf, variable width bandpass, 6 x bandpass filterbank
Accurately modelled low pass gate emulation, in addition to a clean VCA variant
Hybrid algorhithmic & convolution reverb. Stereo & ping-pong delays with frequency shifter in the feedback path.
Complex polyrhythmic ratchetting chord sequencer with MIDI output
24 x 115 Modulation matrix: 2 x sequencers, 6 x chaos generators / LFOs, per-stage parameter locks, AD envelope
Overview
In STACKS' self-contained production and performance environment you can create distinctive synth parts from melodies to percussion, which you can loop and layer to build up new tracks.
There are a lot of ways to manipulate the music you make with STACKS but it's designed to be intuitive, encouraging a steady flow from one idea to the next.
As well as its detailed synthesis elements, STACKS has a comprehensive modulation section, a stack of four versatile loopers and granular synthesis options to evolve your recordings in unpredictable new ways.
By continually creating new loops and bouncing them down, you can keep the exploration going for as long as you like — especially useful for improvised live performances.
With built-in processing from delay and reverb to saturation, it's easy to work solely within STACKS and end up with a great sound.
STACKS can run as a VST3 & AU plug-in within all major DAW environments, with the ability to take input from other sound sources and send out MIDI information to control other devices."

video upload by Gavinski’s Tutorials
"This video is a walkthrough and review of the Motto Akemie plugin by ALM Busy Circuits. This came out for desktop some months ago, and was released as a standalone app and AUv3 plugin for iPad a few days ago, and is based on the highly-regarded Akemie's Taiko Eurorack module. I really like it, but some things about it frustrate me, and I discuss all this in the video. I hope you find it useful both in helping you decide whether this app is right for you, and in learning how the app works.

Thereminator 2 for iOS & Apple Silicon Macs
video upload by YonacSoftware
"Available NOW in the App Store.
Create haunting and beautiful sounds on your iPhone, iPad, or Apple Silicon Macs. Available now on the App Store! Special Halloween sale for a limited time!
“I’ll be Bach.” Stop the presses! Load up the inkwells! For it's the return of one of the first — if not the first — instruments made for iOS: the infamous “pocket theremin” is back.
A lot has changed since those heady days of 2008, and so has Thereminator. Although it is not made of T-1000 grade liquid metal (well...not yet), the all-new Thereminator 2 has evolved into a bona fide touch controlled virtual theremin with ample helpings of tone, expression, versatility, and technology.
And it’s now an AUv3 plugin, too! Using a special adaptation of the MPE protocol, Thereminator 2 can inject its eerie sounds directly into your DAW, whether on your iPhone, iPad or Apple Silicon powered computer.
Whether you have your plan 9 ready, or just lurking in dark shadows, it is a thrill to bring back the app that started it all for us. Thank Y’all for the support, for it’s been an amazing journey!

Jordan Rudess Releases GeoShred Studio
video upload by GeoShred
Press release follows:
Wizdom Music Announces the Release of GeoShred 7 Including GeoShred Studio For Mac Desktop Machines
GeoShred is a new kind of musical instrument, offering fluid expressiveness using a performance surface with "Almost Magic" pitch rounding. This unique performance interface combined with physics-based models of effects and musical instruments, is a powerful tool for musicians. Originally designed for iOS/iPadOS devices, GeoShred is now available as an AUv3 plug-in for desktop DAWs.
"GeoShred has always been about pushing the boundaries of musical expression, and with the introduction of GeoShred Studio as an AUv3 plug-in for macOS, we’re bringing that vision to a whole new audience." - Jordan Rudess President Wizdom Music.
Performers can establish a MIDI/MPE connection between GeoShred on an iOS/iPadOS device and GeoShred Studio on the Mac using GeoShredConnect. This makes it possible to use GeoShred's expressive multi-dimensional control for desktop production workflows. Further, iCloud integration ensures that preset edits are synchronized between the iOS/iPadOS and macOS versions of GeoShred.
Equipped with a built-in guitar physical model and 22 modeled effects, GeoShred Studio offers an impressive array of sonic possibilities. And for those looking to expand their musical palette, an additional 33 physically modeled instruments from around the globe are available as in-app purchases (IAPs). These instruments range from guitars and bowed strings to woodwinds, brass, and traditional Indian and Chinese instruments.
GeoShred Studio is best performed expressively using GeoShred's isomorphic keyboard. For users who don’t own the GeoShred for iOS/iPadOS, the free GeoShred Control MPE controller (https://apps.apple.com/us/app/geoshred-control/id1336247116) is available for use with GeoShred Studio. GeoShred Studio is also compatible with MPE controllers, conventional MIDI controllers, and even breath controllers, offering a wide range of performance options.
GeoShred Studio is free to download, but core functionality requires the purchase of GeoShred Studio Essentials, which includes distinct instruments separate from those in the iOS/iPadOS app, and iOS/iPadOS purchases do not transfer.
Works with MacOS Catalina or greater.
GeoShred, unleash your musical potential!
In celebration of the GeoShred 7 release, we are offering a 25% discount on all iOS/iPadOS and MacOS products, valid until October 10, 2024. Pricing table at moforte.com/pricing
