About Augur-52 Synth

This version of the bristol augur synthesizer is in stereo with a flanger effect to widen out the sound.

This is an emulator of a 80s classic analogue poly synth, the emulator can have two or four voices if multitouch allows multitouch. It has dual oscillator, noise, lfo, mixer, filter and a pair of envelope generators. The app supports pressure sensitive touch screens, X/Y accelerometer for pitch and mod wheel, multitouch and zooming interface facilities. The interface has options for fat-finger, analogue filters and rich oscillators however these will consume extra CPU cycles. The interface also has a full piano keyboard setting.

There is an emulator 'Unison' switch which will play both voices on a single note to pad out the sound.

An integrated step sequencer lets you lays down riffs and then tweak them as they play, output can be recorded to a WAV file including to Ringtones.

Interface zooming can be done either with the trackball (Nexus/HTC have them) or enable multitouch via the menu then tap the screen with two fingers at the same time - this will zoom the interface in/out. If you tap with two fingers but keep them held you can move the screen around. This kind of helps out with the dense graphics.

Patches are saved on the SD card along with factory sounds, there is an export and import option to exchange patches.

The emulator will, per default, attempt to run with a set of options that will give reasonable quality and the lowest possible latency/lag. The quality of the audio can be tuned with the menu options however the lowest possible latency for pretty much all Android devices is currently 42ms, on my HTC Desire it is 70ms. If you understand what this means then the value might seem quite high but the app is still a lot of fun.

Works fine. Please add midi support, that exports presets.

The step sequencer is a huge step in the right direction. This app has the potential for leading the pack. Keep up the good work. :)

This app is a ton of fun, but on my incredible I just seems like I didn't have enough finger space. Maybe with a larger screen it'd be even more fun.

Good sounding Synth but the interface is unusable for me,even with zooming...I guess its designed for tablets with large screens? SGS
