SoundScaper – Sampler Glitch/Circuit Bending Synth (iPad Synth App) + FieldScaper Warpfield-Recorder (iPhone)

this thing needs a newer iPad – it loads samples and is a synth with 3 LFOs – so it is fine enough to be just a sample mangler standard – but in addition to that it has some sort of glitch-effects aboard that do „circuit bending“ to it and reshape it. seems reduced in price at the moment (6€) – so check this video or all of these audio demos at their site Ein Synthesizer der Samples lädt und diese mit Glitch-Effekten versehen kann.

LZX Industries – analog video instruments
