About Synth 2
Software multi-touch wavetable synth. Several waveforms, overtones, chosable octaves, configurable user interface. You can also add echo and use the gyro of the device for pitch control.
The main screen is the keyboard of the synth. You touch the screen to play tones. The application itself has no limit on the number of simultaneous touches (my Desire HD can do 4, Samsung Galaxy SII can do 10(!)). Lower tones are to the left, higher tones are to the right. Vertically you can choose between having lowpass filter, highpass filter, dubstep-style wubwub-effect, gain, balance, or no effect at all.
On the keyboard you can display certain tones to make them easier to hit. You can configure which tones to show. You can also choose whether you want to snap your touches to the nearest tone or not.
You can choose which octave the keyboard should start with and also how many octaves to show.
You can also choose what sample rate should be used. Lower sample rates gives you a nice retro sound. :-)
You can also add up to 4 overtones. One or two sounds good. More sounds annoying. :-)
All feedback is welcome! (of course...)
The main inspiration in the creation of this app was BeBot for iPhone.

Too bad there isn't a record button so that I can listen to the sounds or edit them later. Thanks for sharing shug.

For what it is this is pretty good. Use it as a source for a Monotron...

Well, this is a fun toy. A bit buggy, but once that's sorted out I it'll be great. It's not full blown synth, but it does well that what is intended to do.

Finally an app I can use in music production. Good control even on my 4.7" cell phone. Nice basic sounds. One idea would be to add horizontal lines so we know the LFO subdivisions to accurately snap to 3rds or 1/8th notes.

Needs notes at top of screen so you can see them. Some clicks.

A bit limited about the waveforms, but between others in the same platform, it is one of the best.

I would buy this app if it were for sale, there aren't even any ads! I was looking for a synth app to use with my band and I found this app. This is, by far, the best and most useful free synth app that I have found on Google play and I will be using it in actual performances. One request: Options to save my different settings as presets would be awesome.

Overall it is great but how do I set-up the preferred scale key i'm going to use?

Good app. The best I'vei found. But idk why the higher notes have more space than the lower. They should be all equaly spaced. X = log of frecuency

This is a really nice app I am using an S2+ Though i considered such screens to be too small .. i still get a good control. Some features are really great... max range of 4octaves at a time again could be adjustd further higher to 4octave-range pitches. Polyphonic. Overtones. Echo. Frequency roundoffs to all glidable/portamento mode. And much more. Its a nice theremin-ribbon-continuum kind of app that i can use in studio/onstage.

Would be a brilliant app if it didn't crackle so much. I don't have this trouble with other audio apps. It is just like a scratched vinyl disk.
