BIGGER and BETTER than ever before! The ORIGINAL iPhone synthesizer now upgraded for the iPad!

Whether you are a seasoned pro or a newbie, miniSynth PRO will make the rich tones of analog synthesis come alive on your fingertips.

miniSynth PRO is a fully-featured, professional-grade virtual analogue synthesizer. It can work as a polyphonic or a monophonic synthesizer at the flip of a switch. It incorporates an improved version of the time proven zero latency "push-pull" Yonac keyboard algorithm that powers our existing synthesizers, and features a highly customized version of our original analogue-clone "Vincent" tone shaping filter. More importantly, it marks the debut of our brand new cutting-edge YASSE (pronounced "Yah-See") modular sound sequencing and synthesis engine, developed in our labs over the last three years.

As a step up on its predecessors, miniSynth PRO is designed as an FM / Subtractive hybrid synth. Among other innovations, it features our special dynamic waveform selection algorithm, individually parameterized voice processing, and carefully selected waveforms driving its dual interactive oscillators and its five-destination LFO.

miniSynth PRO offers many other features to render music making easier. They include a dedicated arpeggiator module, dual individually adjustable keyboards, user control matrix with configurable assignments, and 82 presets designed by actual musicians. Did we also mention that users are able to record their own performances, as well as save and recall any number of their own presets in our brand-new patch design format?
