BeepStreet has announced the release of Horizon synth, a new virtual analog synthesizer for iPad. It was built to perform and works perfectly with any MIDI keyboard or sequencer. It costs $4.99.
Highlights:
- True SuperSaw sound emulation, first found in the Roland JP-8000 synthesizer. SuperSaw is a layered waveform consisting of multiple saw waves which are detuned to create an extremely full and epic sound. It's possible to use 2 supersaw oscillators per voice * 7 polyphony = 98 saw oscillators playing the same time.
- Two independent filters per voice with configurable routing. You can select between various filter types including classic resonant LP, HP, BP, Notch and less common like Comb and Formant.
- The Morph Group function lets you continuously morph of up to 30 parameters in a sound (including effects), using only the modulation wheel.
Oscillators:
- 2 warm-sounding analog modelled oscillators per voice + 2 sub-oscillators (except SuperSaw). Available waveforms: Saw, PWM pulse,Triangle, SuperSaw.
- Oscillator 2 hard-sync and configurable routing.
- Osc-mix, ring modulator.
- White noise oscillator.
Flexible Multi Filters:
- Two independent filters per voice with configurable routing. You can select between various filter types including: resonant LP,HP,BP,Notch, Comb and Formant.
- Configurable routing: serial or parallel with bypass option.
- ADSR envelope, keyboard tracking and full LFO control.
Modulation:
- Two LFOs per voice. It's possible to assign each LFO to almost any parameter. 3 LFO running modes: trigger, 1 shot, global. 6 waveforms, phase and fade-in knobs.
- The Morph Group function lets you continuously morph of up to 30 parameters in a sound (including effects), using only the modulation wheel.
- Two Modulation ADSR Envelopes for amplitude and filters cutoff.
- Pitch and modulation wheels.
Effects:
- A number of effects are built in: distortion, chorus, equalizer, stereo delay. All parameters can be modulated using mod-wheel.
Arpeggiator:
- Horizon incorporates very powerful programmable arpeggiator. You should think of it more like a small step sequencer.
Other features:
- Over 200 presets.
- 7 voices polyphony.
- Playback modes: poly, solo, arp.
- Built-in recorder supporting AudioCopy and iTunes file sharing.
- Supports CoreMidi and MidiMobilizer. MIDI key velocity can affect up to 3 parameters.
- Configurable piano keyboard size.
- Hold button allows you to to keep notes sustaining until you play new notes.
- With Chord Memory function you can play the chord by only pressing single keys.
- Tube soft saturation on output.
