Spectrum is a collection of 3 Audio Unit synthesizers and one Audio Unit effect. Spectrum is based on popular eurorack synthesizer modules made by Mutable Instruments. Included are four audio units: Spectrum - Multi-mode 8-voice polyphonic oscillator featuring 14 high quality oscillator algorithms. Supports MPE. Modal - Modal synthesis. Bowed, Blowed, and Struck sounds through a 64-band resonator. Also included as an effect. Resonator - 7 beautiful string generation algorithms. Also included as an effect Granular - Granular sampler, looper, pitch shifter, reverb effect. Note that Granular is an Audio Unit effect, not an instrument, so it goes in an effect slot. To use Spectrum, load the Audio Units in your DAW or AU host of choice, like Audiobus, GarageBand or AUM. Each audiounit also features: - modulation LFO featuring tempo sync, key reset, reset phase adjustment - modulation ADSR envelope - XY touchpad (except on Modal) - 2-source modulation matrix allowing for complex and evolving patches. - MIDI CC control of parameters - Resonator and Modal are also loadable as an AudioUnit effect Spectrum contains DSP code provided under the MIT open source license by Mutable Instruments.

    Amazing
    It is everything I was looking for! The sounds that come out of this are heavenly and the fact that it’s all totally free is just unbelievably kind of the creator. Only problem is that the modal synthesizer doesn’t work on its own! Show more

    Works great on iOS, not on macOS
    On macOS, creates massive feedback. I caution you not to download it for desktop use.

    Mutable Instrument EuroRack
    For the price, this is one of the most valuable audio units available. Initially I wasn’t using this bundle as much, but it’s become a reliable tool in the MPC PRO2 App and unlike other apps, it doesn’t ever crash out the host or just plain not load. Excellent tools! The UI is pretty stripped down, but in the end, you want to hear it, You don’t have to look at it. Show more

    Testing out some modules
    I think I found this app in a forum for discussing modular gear. I was not sure if I wanted to get Rings, so I was ecstatic to see someone made a free app emulation to try it out. Unfortunately, now I also want to buy Elements and Plaits! Terrific app though, and I really do appreciate you putting this out there. Thank you! Show more

    Man I want to love this plug-in
    Everything sounds awesome in this plug-in! The only issue I have is that my songs won’t export from GarageBand iOS when this plug-in is enabled. What can I do? This is one of the lushes synths I’ve ever heard! Show more

    Bet on the market?
    Using just the Spectrum synthesizer alone, just about anything can be done - from smooth leads and cutting-edge basses to swirling pads and epic drones to atmospheric soundscapes and sound effects. Add to that the awesome power of the Modal and Resonator synthesizers... Spectrum is probably the best bargain out there for AUv3, period. The question is not “what can it do.” The question is “what CAN’T it do”... and for the record, that’s a hard question to answer. Show more

    Old UI was far better on portable devices such as the iPhone m
    Dear developer, You are a legend when it comes to granular synthesis, your plugin is marvelous and I’ve tried them all on iOS at least. I hope you will consider bringing back the old UI as an option at least since it was way more practical on phones (where I do most of my music), portrait mode was way easier to handle before than it is now ; everything is incredibly small and it feels necessary to utilize the whole screen to make changes - this wasn’t the case before and it was far smoother as an experience. The new look DOES look better tho, although that is somewhat secondary imho. I’ve also been experiencing lots of crashes since the previous update but now that I realize that this has been updated again I will try it out and let you know if any of the glitches are still present on this update. Thank you for offering these for free - I would have gladly paid for them though. Fantastic work. Show more

    Absolutely Amazing
    These sound generators (simulated physical phenomena) are so different to conventional synths, and the sounds are amazing. You can get the Mutable documents for fuller explanation of what's going on. I've made short lists of what the knobs do for the various modes; the referenced links are not too helpful since the knob names are not shown. If you hate getting so much for free, you can buy the author's Synth Modes app. Show more
