Maxi Synth 1.3.3 APK

The is an emulation of a classic polyphonicsynthesiser, effectively multiple Mini's in a single unit, threeoscillators, noise, mixer, filter and two envelope generators fullyemulated in software with modulation from third oscillator and/orNoise/S&H. With the addition of a step sequencer to play riffsand tweak the sounds.

This version includes WAV output recording, including toRingtones, Alerts and Notifications on your phone. It also has upto 4 note polyphony where CPU speeds supports it.

The app supports pressure sensitive touch screens, X/Yaccelerometer for pitch and mod wheel, multitouch and zoominginterface facilities. The original was a polyphonic instrumenthowever the emulator can operate as a polyphonic (duophonic) synthvia multitouch when it is enabled. The interface has options forfat-finger, analogue filters and rich oscillators however thesewill consume extra CPU cycles. The interface also has a full pianokeyboard setting.

So this is not Moog, but it does fit in your pocket and yourbudget.

Interface zooming can be done either with the trackball(Nexus/HTC have them) or enable multitouch via the menu then tapthe screen with two fingers at the same time - this will zoom theinterface in/out. If you tap with two fingers but keep them heldyou can move the screen around. This kind of helps out with thedense 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 ofoptions that will give reasonable quality and the lowest possiblelatency/lag. The quality of the audio can be tuned with the menuoptions however the lowest possible latency for pretty much allAndroid devices is currently 42ms, on my HTC Desire it is 70ms. Ifyou understand what this means then the value might seem quite highbut the app is still a lot of fun.

Tested on HTC Desire/2.2, LG 2x, SE Experia ARC, Woxter 70W,this is one of a family of emulators from the same author.
