Modulin

Modulin is the world's most customizable synthesizer. It allows for unique personal expression while providing a wide spectrum of visual feedback. The playful colored strings are visually appealing while providing the user with fluent modulation of Modulin's LFO. The LFO replicates the vibrato effect heard throughout an orchestra or choir. The LFO can be set to four different wave types: Sinuous, Triangle, Sawtooth, and Square. It also can be set to a wide variety of frequency ranges. Modulin's oscillator can also be set to these four waveforms, but its pitch is controlled by the strings and a tuning knob. A simple low-pass filter allows you to cut off the unnecessary frequencies. The glide rate knob on Modulin creates a fluent portamento effect and allows for some pretty cool instrument replications. A slider located in the middle of the effects view can be dragged to reveal different effects and extra sound makers. Modulin includes reverb, delay, and chorus. It also contains a separate white noise module. Modulin simulates paraphonicness by allowing for a second VCO multiplied to form a gap of up to 2 octaves. Below all the knobs, an ADSR control allows you to manipulate the attack, decay, sustain, and release of your sounds.

Modulin truly is the complete package for channeling your inner-composer. It can even record and store your works of art. A record button allows you to lay down a beat and overwrite it with complex melodies. The tracks button allows you to manage your tracks as you add them.

New to synthesis? No problem. Modulin has an explore section that takes you through every component in an analog synthesizer, describing what it does alongside a diagram of how signals flow through it.

Master of all things musical? Modulin's got you covered again. You can change the root note, octave, and type of scale that Modulin uses. If you feel really confident, you could even turn off the note names in the settings and try to memorize where everything is.

With over 40 presets and other preset packages to buy, you will never run out of new and unique sounds. Even if you do, you can create your own and save it for later or share it with friends by the swipe of your finger.

Fat fingers? Don't worry. With Modulin’s design, you can plug in an external MIDI keyboard and play it however you like. You can even map certain knobs on Modulin to knobs on your keyboard. It's magic!

The more you explore Modulin, the more fun it becomes. You can personalize it by adding your own custom color or amp up the expression through the pressure sensitivity setting.

No audio no answer
Saint hake

I got Modulin about 2 or3 weeks ago. It works and sounds great on my I phone but I get no audio an my iPad. I've sent 2 requests for help to tech support but as of now I've heard nothing from the company. Disappointed.


Get this synth

This new synths has one of the cleanest and approachable designs I have ever seen. You can use it to learn about how modular synths work but it is a lot of fun to play as well. It also sounds great.


Bought the expansion pack
Lundberg02

Purchase confirmed, did not install anywhere, waste of money, developer did not answer two emails. Edit: developer responded, his site had failed to forward, he is working the problems reported by many users, looking forward to his solution. Edit again: the Philharmodulin preset is now installed with many more instruments and sounding good. Don’t know where the octave shift is, or I might go to five stars.


Awesome Little Synth

As a beginner getting into synthesis, I found this app very helpful and entertaining. The explore section was an interesting way to discover analog synthesis. I also find the interface very intuitive and entertaining with the bendy strings. It sounds amazing and works great with my midi keyboard.


Just not useful or fun.
Eriptron

It introduces audio artifacts. The UI is a plain in the arse. Presets are bland. The app has no punch. No dynamics and sounds more like a toy. 99 cents is a good price. The add on is a waste of 99 cents as they sound weak and amateurish. A waste of two dollars is not a terroble waste though I definitely was not paying the original asking price. Of no real use but to kids playing around. I five it 2-stars since it has a fair tutorial on the aspects of a synth.
