Addictive microSynth

VirSyn has released Addictive microSynth, a new synth for iPhone/iPod that combines the synthesis power of Addictive Synth with an easy to use 4 track loop phrase recorder.

Dynamic wavetable synthesis allows the user to explore a wide range of sonic territory from acid loops, crystal clear percussion, and human choirs to complex musical soundscapes with only a handful parameters to tweak. There is also an intelligent randomizer for both sounds and arpeggios.
