It's arrived! Here are the details:
Sunrizer XS synth is a virtual analog synthesizer that takes the definition of iOs synthesizer to the next level. Thanks to carefully designed architecture and heavy usage of coprocessor it blurs the boundaries between iOs and hardware synthesizers. Sunrizer XS was built to perform and works perfectly with any MIDI keyboard or sequencer. A lot of research has been done in order to achieve unheard warmth and clarity.
*** The app requires at least iPhone 3GS or iPod Touch 3rd gen. iPhone4 or iPod Touch 4rd gen. recommended for full polyphony ***
HIGHLIGHTS
- True SuperSaw sound emulation, first found in the legendary Roland JP-8000 synthesizer. SuperSaw is a layered waveform consisting of multiple saw waves which are detuned to create an extremely full and epic sound. It's possible to use 2 supersaw oscillators per voice · Polyphony: 7 voices on iPhone 4, 3 voices on iPhone 3GS
- Two independent filters per voice with configurable routing. You can select between various filter types including classic resonant LP,HP,BP,Notch and less common like Comb and Formant.
- The Morph Group function lets you continuously morph of up to 30 parameters in a sound (including effects), using only the modulation wheel.
- Full support for CoreMidi, MIDI mapping with learn function
- 2 warm-sounding analog modelled oscillators per voice + 2 sub-oscillators (except SuperSaw). Available waveforms: Saw, PWM pulse,Triangle, SuperSaw.
- Oscillator 2 hard-sync and configurable routing
- Osc-mix, ring modulator
- White noise oscillator
- Two independent filters per voice with configurable routing. You can select between various filter types including: resonant LP,HP,BP,Notch, Comb and Formant.
- Configurable routing: serial or parallel with bypass option.
- ADSR envelope, keyboard tracking and full LFO control
- Two LFOs per voice. It's possible to assign each LFO to almost any parameter. 3 LFO running modes: trigger, 1 shot, global. 6 waveforms, phase and fade-in knobs
- The Morph Group function lets you continuously morph of up to 30 parameters in a sound (including effects), using only the modulation wheel.
- Two Modulation ADSR Envelopes for amplitude and filters cutoff
- Pitch and modulation wheels
- A number of effects are built in: distortion, chorus, equalizer, stereo delay. All parameters can be modulated using mod-wheel.
- Sunrizer XS incorporates very powerful programmable arpeggiator. You should think of it more like a small step sequencer.
- Over 200 presets, ability to share cutom banks via email
- 7 voices polyphony
- Playback modes: poly, solo, arp
- Built-in recorder supporting AudioCopy and iTunes file sharing.
- Supports CoreMidi. MIDI key velocity can affect up to 3 parameters.
- Configurable piano keyboard size
- Hold button allows you to to keep notes sustaining until you play new notes.
- With Chord Memory function you can play the chord by only pressing single keys.
- Tube soft saturation on output

Just downloaded...sounds fantastic. GREAT GUI.
Awesome, just the the incredible iPad version. Any iPhone synthesist who doesn't download this at the intro price is a fool! Let's support this amazing developer!!!
Does this work with the akai synth station hardware??????
@Cinema Verite.
In a nutshell, no. :(
Giku, please sort this out!
Sent 4 emails to SS25DeveloperRelations@akaipro.com to get the SDK - from 3 different email addresses, each 2 weeks after previous. No response so far.... I don't get it, seems like a conspiracy theory. btw. I hope they start respect CoreMidi.
on a separate note giku, any progress on iSequencer HD? I haven't used it in ages since it doesn't have CoreMidi for my keyboard. You had said about a month for updates, but it has been about 2 or more. I really enjoyed using it, but now it just sits on my iPad neglected....
@giku...
Cool man. Respect there! :)
I suspected Akai were jumping on the bandwagon anyway. But you know, they were the kings once, but as soon as the PC got more powerful, poor old Akai bombed.
CoreMIDI is it! :)
:) Thanks,
Another funny story:
It doesn't support Midi Mobilizer (I) as well. Device is no longer supported and the app cannot be validated by Line6 (Apple requires this). Users start to complain in reviews and I understand them.
@giku
I was going to inquire about Synthstation support, as well. Here's hoping that they eventually get back to you !
Thanks for putting in the effort and for taking the time to comment here, though -- it's definitely appreciated.
I,m happy just download it on iPod touch and it works on ipad2 with cck and nanokeys 2.ok in 2x mode it's a bit pixelly but still sounds great.can,t wait to be copy and pasting into sequence hd which I got recently and love to bits
Thanks beep street for the best synth around!

I hereby issue the developer a challenge: do something like this for the iPhone:

@pighood: No problem, to do 2xOverSampling give me 2xfaster processor :). I think we need to wait for next-gen devices.
