MIDISynth Control1.2.2 - App Store

MIDISynth-Control provides a control hub for your MIDI synthesisers from a single
application and also provides in-depth editing for a number of inbuilt, popular synths and
drum machines.

For the inbuilt synths, all controls are automatically provided, as well a librarian features and
functionality specific to the synth.

For all other synths it is possible to define your own control map for the controls you wish
access to and then lay these out as you see fit.

From here global layouts can be created allowing several synths & drum machines to be
controlled from a single screen in the app.

In-built synths: Novation Circuit & Tracks, Novation Circuit Mono Station, Novation Peak & Summit, Elektron Digitakt, Elektron Digitone, Korg Minilogue xd & Prologue
In-built controllers: Novation Launchpad X, Novation Launchpad Mini MK3

As well as being able to store and retrieve patch and synth data to/from your mobile device each editor also provides bi-directional communication, patch randomisation features, patch morphing, XY controls, mixer view (if appropriate), and a performance mode (separate In-App Purchase).

A fully featured arpeggiator and drum repeat functionality are available as an IAP.

Ableton Link support is provided for syncing individual sequencers to a Link session. This can also be used for syncing LFO and ARP clocks if they exist on the synth. There is also a Link+ IAP available which allows up to 6 other USB devices to be synced to a Link session - this can be used standalone and no other purchases are necessary.

Keyboard and drumpad functionality can be added for up to six external synths using the Keyboard/Drumpad+ IAP. No other purchases are necessary.

With each module purchase a single user definable layout in available in a 2x2 to 8x8 grid. With the purchase of the Rand/Morph/Performance module this is increased to 6 user layouts.

Each module offers a 3-day trial version with some restrictions in order for testing before purchase.
