HOW SURE ARE WE
Small app: combines its grossing ranks with ratings growth (5.2 new ratings a month on average since launch). Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2.6 times, so the range is wide. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

aber

wirklich klasse soundmöglichkeiten… aber in AUM werden die verwendeten sounds nicht gespeichert, bein neu laden immer nur INIT, das ist nervig. das speichern drr einstellungen sollte eigentlich selbstverständlich sein! schade, deshalb irgendwie unbrauchbar und viel punkteabzug. bitte korrigieren, denn dann wäre es wirklich ein klasse synth.

★★★★★Nov 2, 2020
Almost one of the best ..

You need to hear it - 😍 5 stars if you implement a GLOBAL TUNING function ..

★★★★★Apr 25, 2020
Good sounding, good looking but heavy UI input lag

it has a very anoying input lag on any slider / knob on my machine: iPad Air 2 - iOS 12.4.1 Yes allmost any iOS Synth has a little input lag but Shokwave is the worst of them. I need to touch and hold quiet to long before I can move them, thats not good! May you can work on it to make it faster...

★★★★★Jan 29, 2020
nice update

Now that longpress does not bring up the modmatrix this synth is joy to play with. Maybe you could give FD-1 the same treatment. 5 out of 5 stars for this beautiful synthesizer.

Midi not working

While all other apps seamlessly work with my MIDI keyboard, Shockwave does not. And the midi settings change to “regular” not “mpe” did not help either. I use a Yamaha DGX-650. Please help resp. make it work. Without MIDI it’s no fun. Thank you. Using iPad 12,9” 1st gen 256 GB LTE, latest iOS version.

Crashes

Hi Kai, Great Synth big sound Sorry to say but up from today you Synth crashes. Only the ini sound can be played via the integrated Keyboard. If I press the browse button then there is no sound any more. Until yesterday everything works. No software upgrade on my side. IPad Pro 12,9. 2.Gen. Software version 13.1.2 Please let it work 😏

Store description

ShockWave is a monophonic Synthesizer designed to bring modular style workflow to the world of iOS & AUv3 plugins. Built around the concept of Phase Distortion (PD) Synthesis, Shockwave includes a pair of PD Oscillators each capable of creating everything from pure Sine Waves over smooth Sawtooth and Square Waves to Resonance & Sync sweeps, filtered Noise and more. In addition to the Synth Voice, ShockWave includes a dedicated control section housing a pair of 8 step sequencers, a sample & hold module as well modules for trigger divisions, logic comparisons and controlled randomness. A pair of Low Frequency Oscillators and 2 Attack/Sustain/Release (ASR) Envelopes serve as main modulation sources and can be used in a number of ways. Envelopes can be triggered from a number of internal sources including other modules such as trigger divider, logic or chance module but can also be connected to each other allowing for a wide range of patches usually only possible in large modular systems. LFOs are individually tempo sync-able and capable of producing total of 5 different waveforms each. The two sequencers can run independently or combine to one 16 step sequence where rate and length can be controlled independently for each of the two. In true modular nature almost any control within ShockWave can be modulated with up to 11 sources - simultaneously. Modulations are setup simply by holding a control and dialling in the desired amount in a list of all available sources. A special X-Ray mode adds a realtime display of all currently active modulations right at their corresponding control making it easy to understand what's happening inside the synthesizer at any given time. Synth Voice and Control Section are accompanied by built-in Delay and Reverb sections placed on send busses with all of their controls including the send levels being available as mod destinations. Last but not least, ShockWave features a solid MIDI implementation including support for, aftertouch, velocity, wheels, custom CC mappings and up to 4 dimensions of expression when using MPE compatible controllers, such as the Roli Seaboard, Linnstrument, Geoshred, KB-1 and others. MIDI Output is supported as well and includes Note and Control Change output generated from various internal sources including Sequencers, Envelopes and LFOs making it possible to control external MIDI gear or chain multiple plugin instances for advanced, self driving patches. Overview: - Semi Modular Monophonic Synth Voice - Phase Distortion Synthesis (PD) - Dual PD Oscillators with 5 Waveforms + Noise - Dual ASR Envelopes with variable trigger source - Dual LFO with Tempo Sync - Cross Modulation with Linear/Exp. FM, PM, AM & RM - Mixer section with individual pan and level controls per oscillator - Output VCA with variable control source - Pattern Generator for generating sequences from various internal sources - Quantizer to force note input into a specific scale (19 Scales + User Scales) - Step Sequencer with 2x8 or 1x16 steps, individual rate and number of steps per row - Trigger Divider for dividing internal trigger sources - Probability Gate for adding controlled randomness - Sample & Hold for additional randomness - Logic Module to create triggers from various internal sources - Built-in Delay & Reverb Effects - MIDI Note and CC output for controlling external gear or chaining multiple instances - Semi Modular Architecture - 11 Modulation Sources - 40 Modulation Destinations - 2 Color Themes MIDI Input: - 4D Expression (Glide, Slide, Pressure & Velocity) - Mod & Pitch-Wheel - Tempo Sync - Custom CC Control MIDI Output: - Note - Control Change Connectivity: - Standalone - AUv3 - AudioBus - IAA
