Great for drone sounds
Destinite
I really enjoy droney types of sounds, a la Trent Reznor, etc. Grain Science lets me create my own. I've spent hours on this in the last two days and am having a blast creating backing soundscapes to my tracks. $10 is a no-brainer for an app like this!
Fantastic!

Hidden behind Grain Science's decptively simple interface is the fact that just about every major parameter has its own LFO. I can't stress how powerful this is for adding animation to your sounds!
Simply Amazing

It is clean, organized, functional, and sounds simply amazing. Everything just works. No crashing, no sticking of notes. Just amazing!
Yea

First of- I want to make music I don't care to become an expert at obscure synth interface interfacing. I have purchased so many apps that make the path to usage so esoteric...so frustrating. The interface here is wonderfully intuitive. And the sound, wow! That's what got me to take another chance. I went to the website and listened to samples. Such depth, substance, diversity and fluidity. Finally!:) Great support too! Thank you!
Amazing

Exactly what I've been looking for to add some custom ambience to my songs. Extremely easy to use and yet so incredibly deep. Must have app for any iOS musician.
superb

oh this is one of good ones... very expressive possibilities... spend a little time tweaking and the textures can be breath taking... oh if mr. varese had this in his arsenal what thunderous sounds could he have made.
Would love FM synthesis in app
MartineLizardo
Great app. The only thing I would love to see is an option for FM synthesis as a blend mode, in addition to AM and PMW. This would enable a ton of possibilities if you could modulate grain unit 1 with the frequency of grain unit 2. You could probably use the existing octave, tune, and blend amount knobs for the modulation. You would just need to add the engine. Or you could add a knob or two next to blend mode selector when you select FM mode. Just a thought, but I think it would add even more musical possibilities! Thank you for the great synth.
Unique sounds, elegant design, effects can be shaped over time
David Wilson-Okamura
I have purchased most of the synthesizer apps for iPad and iPod, and this is one of my favorites. Three things make Grain Science stand out: 1. First is the type of synthesis. Most iOS synth apps simulate subtractive synthesis, shaping basic wave forms (sawtooth, square, sine, triangle) with a filter. Grain Science takes a different approach, blending sound samples. These samples can be simple (sine waves again) or complex. If you're looking for a new sound, this app can help you find it. At this price, it doesn't have to replace your other synths either. In fact, you can very easily sample your other synths and use their sounds to build new ones in Grain Science. There are several ways to get samples in, too: audiopaste; iTunes file sharing; and -- this is a really useful one -- DropBox. 2. Grain Science has a full suite of powerful effects. But so do other synth apps. What makes these effects different? In one word: TIME. The strength and texture of Grain Science's effects can be shaped over the course of a single note, so that (for example) the effect starts out soft and then builds...or...wobbles...or softens. This makes the sounds more interesting to listen to. 3. The Grain Science interface is intuitive and elegant. Unlike most synths, it shows what you are doing graphically as well as numerically. And you can change the parameters by touching the graph, as well as the dials. It's also the most elegant-looking synth on my iPod and iPad. One last note about the iPod/iPhone version: it's wonderful to have this much synth power in my coat pocket, where I can whip it out during my lunch break. To get started, though, you need to swipe the mini keyboard down and out of the way. This will reveal the app's control panels. The latest version has a toggled sustain mode that is particularly useful for the iPod/iPhone version, because you can set notes to play while you tinker with the sounds.
AudioBus Support

Requesting support for AudioBus app… Is Grain Science planning on this?
