One Red Dog has announced the release of Arctic Pro, a synthesizer / vocoder app for iPad.

Arctic Pro Synth

Arctic Pro – Be rude. Be rough. Be bold. Be tough!

Arctic Pro Synthesizer / Vocoder is a modern subtractive synthesizer for the Apple iPad. It does not aim to accurately model or re-create vintage synths of yesteryear. Instead Arctic ProSynth offers the contemporary synthesist a rude, rough, bold and tough palette of sound to get stuck into. Including two HyperOscillators, a sub oscillator, dual filters, and easy to re-order master effects. The Vocoder gives you an extra dimension to your musical performance.

Combine two HyperOscillators and one Sub Oscillator for some seriously fat sounds. Layer up to 8 oscillators in unison to create very thick and powerful tones. Spread detune and Mix these separate oscillators in real-time. More than just a “SuperSaw” – it’s also a Super-square and Super-triangle.

Legendary sound designer John ‘Skippy’ Lehmkuhl has exclusively designed the factory presets. John has worked as a professional sound designer since 1988 for Korg – making patches, combinations, drum kits as well as creating the sample data for almost every synth Korg has released since the M1. We have drawn upon his vast experience in the development of the audio engine.

Paste the audio using Sonoma AudioCopy, open in other apps, or share with Kymatica AudioShare. Presets and Banks may be emailed and transferred via Wi- Fi and iTunes Files Sharing.
