AudioKit has announced the availability of a new iPhone/iPad app that aims to create a vintage and nostalgic emotional sound. Retro Piano lets you create your own signature retro, lo-fi, or vintage piano sound.

Hope you are healthy and safe. The past weeks were difficult for all of us. Like you, we watched what was unfolding around the world. Here in the United States, senseless killings and decades of racism has resulted in feelings of sadness, outrage, and fear.
