    Thank you for making this app
    Lots of well thought out features, this app is a thing of beauty. The world is a better please because it exists. It took me a bit to get used to controlling the knobs by angle. My instinct was the click the knob and hold, dragging up and down to change the value. That interface makes it easier to do fine adjustments but as is it is totally workable. Show more

    Amazing and completely free
    This is a simple and intuitive Formant synth app that is 100% free. Virtual midi would make this a six star app. Thank you to the developer for this gift. Keep up the good work! Show more

    Fun, easy & cool
    that’s not just what my business card says; it applies to howl too. this app totally fills my formant needs (which were considerable in Q2 and expected to increase for the rest of the fiscal year) and adds enough fx options to make it more than a novelty. the interface is excellent Show more

    Want to Like it - No Audiobus or AUM
    Does not load in either Audiobus or AUM. Also, the vowel pad has no graphic effect as pictured.

    I like it but...
    Can’t figure out why when the app is open it disables sound output to my Bluetooth headphones. Makes it useless when I’m traveling or on the train.

    Very nice
    Plays well with AUM and Audioshare (Audioshare being a source). Just don't forget to play (and/or lock) it while filtering and turn the knobs down a bit so you can hear your source audio coming in. Very excited to further mangle more sound experiments. Show more

    Awesome app!
    Really a thrill to use with all the modulation options at your fingertips on an iPad. Phenomenal touchscreen UI. I'm about to record a particularly grimey slurry of vowels and use that audio as the modulator for ableton's vocoder. It's gonna be funnnn.... Show more

    Could be good
    Some of the controls are stupid sensitive for small adjustments. Interesting but not much more than a novelty.

    Fun, but quiet
    I like this a lot but it's almost inaudibly quiet by default on the iPhone 6s.

    Quite good!
    Now, this has Audiobus. So that's it. Freaking awesome stuff! Only thing this NEEDS is Audiobus and IAA. Fun lil app. Great sounds.

    Best formant synth for iOS
    This is definitely the best formant synth I've seen on the App Store. Now all it needs is IAA/Audiobus support
  • thatkidrain, 15.05.2016
    Woah
    I love this so effing much
  • jptacek, 08.04.2016
    brilliant
    need some sort of LFO on the formants tho! e.g., draw a path to define a diphthong, and the LFO swings back and forth along that path
  • mikfreq, 28.02.2016
    awesome synth, please add automation!
    what a spectacular little synth, if this thing had automation, audiobus in app audio that sort of thing it would be even more spectacular but since it's free I'm going to say it's spectacular just like it is... I would buy a features upgrade if it included all kinds of cool stuff like that, especially automation, please add automation! Show more

    A brilliant little formant synth app
    Ok so this is (at least at the moment) free, so you could just download it and give it a try. It's a formant synth, two large areas for note/pitch and controlling vowels. You can definitely get that low Mongol voice sound thing going on with this. Great stuff. I do wish this had Audiobus and/or IAA as it is such a great little synth and kinda deserves some AB/IAA love (pls dev?:) Show more
