Thanks to its true virtual analog (VA) synthesis engine, the use of analog-modelled non-linear filters and extensive modulation options, Flowtones sounds warmer and more analog than digital romplers and wavetable-based synths.

Just a short review:
This synth is bangin'. Really, really great sounding. The bass notes can vibrate the walls and floor with impunity. The variety of oscillators and fact that you get four of them in two-by-two-pairs means you can sculpt a variety of great subtractive sounds. And the inclusion of a Formant filter along with the typical on-board FX (chorus, delay, reverb, distortion & bitcrush) adds some spice to the mix.
For the price, and the promise of free upgrades through v2, you can do a lot worse than this synth.
Did I mention it sounds great?
(for those who test drove it under a previous version, I recommend trying it again: the UI changed dramatically from 1.0.1 to 1.0.3 (at least in Windows), and it improved things a lot. I expect to see further refinements and changes as the synth develops.).

Sounds ok, looks like an iOS app and is horrible to navigate, a regretful impulse buy without demoing.
Definitely demo this as the GUI is bad and may not suit your workflow. It's a shame, I love TB's other plugins.

One of the best synths on iOS; I purchased the desktop version as well so I can swap patches. Effects are top notch (what else did we expect from TB) and the formant filter is the best I've heard since I got rid of my good old Yamaha FS1R.
This synth doesn't have a huge page with too many sliders like some others do; the tabs are quite well designed and allow me to focus on specific tasks without distraction. The popup modulation windows are also a welcome change compared to other synths with large, cluttering modulation matrices which typically hurt my eyes. Well done TB for a first synth.
