Hi guys,
We've finally managed to released SynthMaster Player for iPad on the AppStore as a free app with 200 factory presets.
SynthMaster Player for iPad is the mobile player version of SynthMaster. It is targeted towards users who prefer to use presets rather than designing their own sounds during music production. Although it is a preset based player, users can edit the following parameters:
1. 8 easy parameters assigned by the sound designer
2. 2 XY Pads assigned by the sound designer
3. Effect bypass states and send amounts
4. Layer bypass states and volumes
5. Master volume, polyphony
The free app comes with 100 factory presets. When users complete registration by entering their names and email addresses they receive another 100 factory presets as a bonus. After completing registration, users can upgrade to the Pro version of the app by purchasing the "Factory Presets" bank via In-App-Purchase (IAP) for $4.99. With the Pro Upgrade all of the 800 factory presets are loaded and also the following features are unlocked:
1. Users can save the changes they have made to the presets
2. Users can purchase additional preset banks via In-App-Purchase (IAP)
3. Existing SynthMaster users can download their previously purchased SynthMaster preset banks inside the app, so that they don't have to purchase them again
4. Existing SynthMaster users can export their own presets in SynthMaster v2.7 and import them into SynthMaster Player for iPad using iTunes.
Built-in Keyboard
The built-in 2 octave keyboard with pitch and modulation wheels lets users play notes without having to connect an external MIDI controller to their iPad. With its Scale functionality, it shows the users the notes on the scale, and with its Chord functionality the user can play a certain chord by pressing a single note.
Midi Settings
SynthMaster Player for iPad supports CoreMIDI and also virtual MIDI. It acts as a virtual MIDI destination for other DAW apps. Midi input device, midi input channel, and receive midi beat clock settings can be adjusted from the MIDI Settings window.
InterApp Audio
SynthMaster Player for iPad acts as an source/instrument in InterApp Audio. We demonstrate in our user manual how to connect it to InterApp enabled DAW apps.
AudioBus
SynthMaster Player for iPad acts as a source/instrument in AudioBus, with state saving enabled. We demonstrate in our user manual how to connect it to AudioBus enabled DAW apps.
System Requirements
1. Minimum Operating System Supported: iOS 7.0
2. Minimum Hardware Supported: iPad 3rd Generation
3. Recommended Hardware: iPad Air and above

Right now we have 3 known issues:
1) On iOS 7.1.x in app purchase of the factory presets bank doesn't work, it might cause crashes or no products were found.
2) Only the Pro Upgrade (Factory Presets) bank can be purchased right now. Apple hasn't approved our other banks yet, we're waiting for them to approve.
3) Because of the above issue, existing SynthMaster desktop users can not download their existing preset banks from our server as well. Once the IAPs are approved by Apple this issue will be resolved.
There are also some minor bugs, hopefuly they'll be fixed in version 1.0.7 which is to be released next week.

Good luck with this, but I gotta say the interface looks really primitive, like some SynthEdit creation from 10 years ago.

Functionality comes first for us. We'll update the GUI in v1.1 anyways. So far, we've had very positive comments from audiobus forum users, and our facebook followers.Numanoid wrote:Good luck with this, but I gotta say the interface looks really primitive, like some SynthEdit creation from 10 years ago.

I suggest a much smaller volume wheel, and more space for the (now) tiny knob controllers.kv331 wrote:Functionality comes first for us. We'll update the GUI in v1.1 anyways.

I'd suggest the same pretend perspective for all the knobs. It looks strange with the small knobs having a below perspective and the big knob having an above perspective. Anyway, nice move into iPad land.

The above issues have been fixed, since Apple approved IAP products today!kv331 wrote: 2) Only the Pro Upgrade (Factory Presets) bank can be purchased right now. Apple hasn't approved our other banks yet, we're waiting for them to approve.

On IOS 7.1.2 (iPad 4), it also keeps prompting me about multitasking gestures, even though I disabled them.
Thanks,
