iPhone app Synclavier Go! App and Plugin

Nothing sounds quite like a Synclavier

World-class iOS synthesis has arrived! The Synclavier II helped shape a generation of popular music and film soundtracks.
Now this beast of an emotional vintage synthesizer has been incarnated on iOS using much of the core DSP code from the original and keeping the authentic red-button interface that is both deep and immediate.

Not only retro, but decidedly modern: fully compatible with MPE, Ableton Link, Audiobus 3, MIDI.
And the included AUv3 client can run inside of iOS DAWs such as GarageBand, NanoStudio 2, BeatMaker 3, Cubasis 3, Auria Pro.

The powerful Synclavier DSP Engine affords 12 Partial Timbres, Timbre Frames, Samples, FM-Synthesis and Additive-Synthesis methodologies.

Its so easy to create playable rich string sounds, fantastic Moog esque drones, Prophet like pads, crazy FM brass noises, or Roland 808 style drum hits.
Its a sound designers dream and a synthesists wonderland.

But theres more! Weve added a ton of stuff.
The original hardware was 8-bit.
With newer technology, we can pack more fidelity and more features in this already awesome synth.

MPE compatibility, seven timbre quick-change character buttons, 16-track mixing console, crazy-good Artist Preset Libraries from world-renowned sound designers, and lots more.
The Synclavier was always a versatile attention-getting instrument, but now its a powerhouse synth to be reckoned with!

Soundfile playback and AUv3 compatibility require iOS11 or later.

The Synclavier knob is as unique today as it was revolutionary at the time of its introduction.
The knob is a rate-of-change controller; close your eyes and let your right-brain kick in to the sound design process.
Forget the numbers; forget the digits; let your ears guide the process.
Sound design with a touch-screen and Synclavier knob is as different from a mouse-driven GUI as, well, Synclavier was different than the Fairlight CMI! The Synclavier Knob is an exciting and authentic option, but is not required for Synclavier Go! since a virtual knob is provided in the app.

Note to Parents: Synclavier Go! is as educational as it is historic and authentic.
This app can introduce your teenager to the technical aspects of sound and sound design in a fun and informative environment.,
