Laplace - AUv3 Plug-in Synth

I have had a continual appreciation for the sound of this synthesizer, over the few years it has been out. One the best things about iOS is being able to have a collection of different types of synthesizers, and this one is unique and simple, and is a musical interpretation of physical modeling synthesis. I like and use Mersenne as well, and consider them to be part of a set, but if you are starting out, Laplace is the one. The sound is something interesting to me, as kind of a missing addendum to late 80’s, early 90’s synthesis, post analog, before sampling took over, from FM and wavetable.

Fantastic take on physical modeling and basic FM. I could see amazing potential if more FM operators were added. Great synth for experimentation and generating really interesting patches that are unobtainable in a typical subtractive synth. Question: what is the difference between the Resonator types A and B? Could you give us a better description of the Resonator Strength and Color controls in addition to being an APF? Thanks for a really interesting product!

Don’t let the presets fool you, this synth can sound like the jaws of hell if set it right, can’t wait to hear it on a big soundsystem.

Lots of good sounds coming out of this one! Like all of their synths! Get it now!

I love this app as well as all the apps created by this developer. Basically, the factory presets are just bad, but that can be a good thing. The first thing I look at before purchasing a synthesizer is can I create and store my original presets. On this inexpensive synth you can. It tests your ability to not have a ton of LFOs, Oscillators, Envelopes and it does make the sounds that are specified in the information paragraph easy. I like to take a synth known for some specific sounds and move as far as I can away from them. In one hour I had a half a dozen presets that were completely different from the factory set. If you want to challenge yourself, for $4.00, this synth is a great test for your creativity. 4 stars because no Bluetooth, other than that a lot to work at.
