App Description

Salome is a tool for recording (or importing) sounds, turning them into seamless loops, and then polyphonically play them using MPE or MIDI.

CONTROL: The onscreen keypads can be latched, turning them into 2-dimensional faders for controlling various modulations. Additionally, software and hardware MPE controllers can be used (or normal MIDI, in a pinch).

WORKFLOW: The entire process from sampling to playing was designed to be a fast and fluid as possible. Speed > features.

UNIVERSAL: AUv3 plugins for iOS (iPhone, iPad) and MacOS (ARM, Intel) are included*.

- Full Audio Unit compatibility (note that not all hosts support all AU features)
- Built-in MPE keypads for multidimensional onscreen control
- MPE/MIDI input and output from the Audio Unit, so you can record your performance or even control other MPE synths
- 12 mode filter, based on the Oberheim Xpander design
- Latch-mode lets you play the instrument using faders
- Basic standalone mode included (for connectivity use the AU plugin)
- Record or import sounds (WAV, AIF, MP3) and instantly play them as a polyphonic instrument
- Effortless seamless loops using the non-destructive X-Fade feature
