Wilsonic is your portal to new musical universes. Ervin Wilson's 65 years of tuning research and discovery are now at your fingertips. By touching, hearing, and feeling Wilson's designs you can intuitively break free of the limits of the 12 note scale used by historical musical instruments such as the piano and guitar to pioneer new music never-before heard by mankind. No previous knowledge of music theory is required. These tonal worlds are based on an entirely unique mode of thought that has little to do with historical musical thinking. The app features Wilson's most profound scale designs. Your hands and ears naturally find new melodic patterns and harmonies that touch on those feelings and emotions you couldn't find before. When you find that perfect scale export it as a Scala file to tune up your favorite software synthesizers. Share your favorite scales with your friends. This version of Wilsonic has the scales "Moments Of Symmetry", Co-Prime Grid, Tetrany Major, Hexany, Tetrany Minor, Mandala (Hexany Stellate), Tetradic Diamond, Hexany Diamond, Aggregate Rotations of Euler Genus 4, Eikosany, Partch 43, Harmonic Spiral, Highland Bagpipes, and Recurrence Relations. Wilsonic is Audiobus 2.3.x compatible.

    Guess it needs update
    I get null errors. Also the export options are all greyed out.

    Phenomenal app, just wish the keys were a bit bigger or adjustable in height

    Wow
    As someone who has learned a lot about theory in the past, I'm confused by a lot of this. However, It's very easy to use. It didn't take long to understand that the notes are spaced out in a series depending on the mode selected on the top left portion of the screen. The layout could stand to be a little more visually compelling, but it's self explanatory as far as playing a note goes. Some of the text is too small to be read. It would be nice if there was information about each of the different modes, whether that be the historical context, some sort of description explaining the structure, or something else to help a user wrap their minds around what exactly is going on here. I can tell by my ear that a lot of these structures are distinguishable from the 12 tone series, but it would be nice to know how they're different and what I could do to replicate some of these scales outside the app. Show more

    Great tool for music!
    My one wish/suggestion would be that it can be used with my synths and pianos. It would be interesting to check out other frequency possibilities using this app and other piano apps. Show more

    Almost perfect!!..but please add these features
    This app is amazing. I just randomly came across this by downloading synthesizers. It’s like jumping into an audio history book of ancient tones mixed with the future tones. In my opinion, I think this app is outstanding, but if I had three wishes, this app would be absolutely perfect if: One, I wish there was a way to draw up our own geometric shapes to see what tone they create. Two, I wish we could type in the specific number frequency in the customize section. For example, having middle C be at 267.45. And lastly, three, I wish there was a way we can play the notes with our midi keyboard. I know there’s a way to transfer the scale and frequency to the D1 or Synth One synthesizers, but I love the tone of the bell in this app. If this app has those 3 other details, I wish I could rate this 10 stars lol. Please consider adding these features. Show more

    Unbearably beautiful UI
    This software has an amazing user interface, presenting wha could otherwise be quite tough to follow.

    So cool but notes hang
    They hang when you play the keyboard. Hanging notes on keyboard please fix

    Works with AudioKit Synths!
    The update to Wilsonic allows you to add your favorite scales to either of the AudioKit synths which greatly expands the usefulness of the app. In addition there are apps like Gestrument Pro which can import Wilsonic scales directly into them and can be used to play a multitude of iOS or hardware synths. This is a great app for exploring Wilson's scale work. Add this to an IAA or Audiobus chain to inject new life into your tracks and go beyond the traditional 12 tone western scale. Export favorite scales into ScaleGen to play synths via MIDI. There are also a multitude of Indian scales. Show more
