DESCRIPTION:
It's true, my favorite synthesizer of the past year or so is not hardware, not a plug-in, but a $7 iPad app. That's right, it's VirSyn's Addictive Synth. They are no bedroom operation though, this German company has made serious soft synths for ages and has only in recent years started using their technology for iPad apps. This amazing little synth uses a unique combination of synthesis methods, incorporating additive, wavetable, FM, and filter morphing. The modulation section is hardwired just the way I like, I think this thing was made for me! Incredibly evocative, emotional, shifting tones. Great sounding effects, an awesome programmable arpeggiator, and the best random patch generation button ever! It yields so many useful results. Needless to say, in this video all sounds, effects, and arpeggios were made from the app itself with nothing else save a MIDI keyboard. All for the price of lunch (minus the cost of the iPad itself, haha).
