App Description

Sample your voice, musical instruments, and ambient sound. Create a multi-timbral synth by combining samples from different instruments.

Auto Sampler combines pitch detection, sound sampling, and wavetable synthesis into easy to use app that runs on any iOS device with a microphone. Samples are automatically extracted from live audio through the microphone input (built-in or external). The pitch detector assigns a pitch to each sampled sound, which is displayed on a piano keyboard as it is captured.

A polyphonic multi-timbral wavetable synthesizer resamples and blends samples into a continuous palette of sound. The synth can be played with the built-in keyboard, and from other apps via Audiobus MIDI. Controls adjust blending, modulation, attack/decay, and other parameters.

A small string orchestra constructed from public domain samples is provided to get you started.

Can also import certain WAV files (see documentation). Compatible with our OASIS app for creating samples from your iTunes library.
