App Description

Orbulator is a new kind of multi-pad touch controlled synth for iOS devices. Extending ideas first introduced in earlier apps like Mandala Music, Orbulator takes these apps to a new level. Orbulator consists of nine circular frequency modulated (FM) pad controllers. Each pad has its own pitch from an assigned scale. The pads independently control four synth "voices". There are 32 presets, which can be modified statically using x-y slide controllers, or dynamically by sliding your finger on the control pads. Orbulator plays more like a real instrument than a conventional synth, allowing the user to articulate control synth parameters while playing.
