So good I came back to write another review! – SynthScaper Review

Total control, So much so that some “players” cannot wrap their minds around all the features. But for those musicians that like EASE of use. This app has you covered with pages of presets that will rival any synth that Korg, Moog, or Wolfgang Palm has made. If you are a little leery but want MORE than the presets offer, that’s when the beauty of this app shines. It lies in the RAND (randomize) features at the top left of the start up screen. One tap of this option and you FLOORED. It randomizes EVERY PARAMETER, OSC, EFFECT, SOUND ENVELOPE and MOD MATRIX in the app. The outcome will of course very from one to another because they are RANDOM. A fresh and new preset waiting to be saved each time. I’m the type of musician that will adjust my guitar tone for hours, getting that perfect sound. I never could understand players who wants to JUST plug in and play. But if you are a REAL musician (then you already tweek knobs for hours) if love the IDEA behind each interesting sound. If You find yourself LOST for hours in building a preset then you will LOVE this app. *** To the user who said that the design was idiotic, and complicated... Thank God not all synths are built for amateurs, or we would have NEVER SEEN the advent of the Modular synth. If you want a synth that can create sound scapes for movies ? bring emotion to your scenes, I imagine that you will fall in love with this app. If you want a synth for REAL music application. Then this is it and THEN SOME. There are some Out-of-the-Box lead Presets that scream louder than my Fender, and crunchy guitars that make my Les Paul Jealous. There are presets that put the Korg Wavestation to shame. There are a wide range of complex presets that come with this amazing app. If you are ONLY into apps like Poison, FM Player, MiniSynth 2 or Synthmaster Player, that are easily controlled in ONE SCREEN, then by ALL MEANS buy this app and use the EASY TO USE RANDOMIZER (Rand) that will create some of the most LUSH PADS, SCREAMING LEADS, BOTTOM OUT BASSES, that are interesting and NEVER BORING. You can control EVERYTHING with simple touch screen sliders that are unique to Synthscaper, right from the start up screen. But, if you are like me and love to get into the weeds, this app also offers screen after screen of options, that can be overwhelming for some. But its laid out with the user in mind, so after a few times of using that app, it ALL makes sense. The signal flow is perfect. The touch is silky and response time is spot on (I’m using an iPad Pro) I wrote this review in hopes that someone who is looking for a synth that can create lush cinematic sound. A synth that has its own unique life, that brings interesting textures and solidifies chorus’, bridges and harmonies and brings complex and interesting layers in an otherwise dull or over-done song. Trust me, this app will inspire, and to the musician who needs that extra UMPH, you just found it. Rock on my friend- Rock on! ~Scott S.
