App Description

iSyn is a virtual music studio for use with Apple iPhone and iPod Touch that puts an unbelievable number of features including two studio-quailty, fully programmable virtual analog synthesizers and a drum machine in the palm of your hand! Play iSyn live with the onscreen keyboard or eight drum pads for fun live jam sessions or let iSyn do the playing for you with its grid sequencer for pattern-based music creation. iSyn can even play a beat and synth track while you jam over sequence tracks for a one-man iPhone band!

Each synthesizer is a full-featured analog modeling synth with three oscillators, a classic 24 db/oct ladder-style lowpass filter, independent filter and amp envelope generators, and full modulation routings. There's never been this much synth horsepower in an iPhone.

iSyn also includes a sample playback-based drum machine with eight kits, each containing eight samples. Drum samples include 808, 909, modular synth drums and numerous 80's drum machines. Volume and pan are individually adjustable and pitches are tunable over a wide range for crazy effects.
