I'm back after a break - and November and January Soundbytes Articles

I'm back on this website after a break.  Other things took my attention.  Now back to business.

SOUNDBYTES MAGAZINE - November and January articles:

https://soundbytesmag.net/review-toy-suite-from-uvi/

First up, a review of the new Toy Suite from UVI - a wonderful and sometimes very silly set of samples.

And here are seven new apps - an amazing update of Virtual ANS 3, and a noise making app from Alexander Zolotov; a mini-analog synth app for iOS, a porting of VCV Rack - miRack - to iOS; four modules that emulate the Mutable Instruments Eurorack modules, again for iOS; Harmonic Chimes, a very nice additive synthesis just-intonation sound-sculpture generator; and another in Eventide's ongoing series of ports of their H9 series of plugins to the iPad/iPhone.

And we follow that up two months later with three more iPad apps: Rhythm Bud, which is the latest in Cem Olkay's series of MIDI sequencing apps - this one takes a rhythm based approach to making generative patterns; and two more in the Eventide series: QVox (an up to four voice harmonizer), and Mangled Verb, which has some of the most crunchy distortion I've ever encountered.

Finally, a review of a synthesizer that has been a mainstay of desktop systems for a while, now successfully ported to the iOS platform.  The microtonal features of this have been upgraded and are now quite useful - as well, there are some very interesting timbral capabilities here.  Well worth a look, if you're on the iOS platform and are interested in microtonality.

Enjoy!
