New iPad/iPhone synth App announced
Following on from last year's release of Gradient Synth - which reached #6 on the App Store's Paid Music charts - Soulyft Audio have announced the launch of their latest creation.
Named Chime, the new addition to the company's line-up is a gesture-based soft synth that turns noise into soundscapes using a combination of touch control, filters, delay and reverb. It employs an audio engine that has been developed in collaboration with Sketch Audio, and its GUI has been designed to encourage immediate musical exploration. It offers a minimalist, icon-based layout that features no explicit labels, and aims to invite users to trust their ears while sculpting soundscapes through interactive gestures.
With Chime, the goal was to design an App where making music felt playful and exploratory, but still capable of serious, inspiring results. Partnering with Sketch Audio was key to creating Chime's powerful yet intuitive audio engine. It's a blend of approachable design and deep sonic potential. - Corey Lofthus, Founder, Soulyft Audio
Key Features
