Interface épurée et belle, sons de qualité, possibilités énormes…étonné que cette app ne rencontre pas un plus gros succès, elle le mériterait clairement !

Spielwiese

• ★★★★★   Cinebient 8 years ago ( v 3.0 )

Für den Preis gibt es da gar nichts auszusetzen. Nicht perfekt aber es macht Spass mit den Möglichkeiten zu spielen. Ein schönes Packet, welches allerdings eine steile Lernkurve hat! Für Freunde modularer Synths…..

Absolute freedom in sound design from fundameltal units! It looks great and sounds even better.

Good modular synth and fx

• ★★★★★   Gui_02 8 years ago ( v 3.0 )

Really great software to build your own synths and effects and to learn how digital sound processing works !

Great! / Świetny!

• ★★★★★   Michał Borowski 8 years ago ( v 3.0 )

Five stars for: - great sound quality - very effective and clear UI - stability - overall idea of this app :) IN POLISH: Pięć gwiazdek za: - świetną jakość dźwięku - bardzo efektywny i przejrzysty UI - stabilność - ogólną ideę programu :)

Ottimo lavoro

• ★★★★★   dopadura 8 years ago ( v 3.0 )

È la prima volta che utilizzo questapp, ma in poche ore e un po’ di studio ho potuto produrre suoni. Ottimo supporto e ottimo lavoro. Ancora qualche piccola cosa da sistemare.

Finally, a modular synth I can afford!

As a long time amateur musician, I have always been interested in modular synthesizers. I fondly remember playing around with the Moog when it was first released, but never had the funds to actually own one myself. These days, hardware and software synthesizers are everywhere you turn, but for the most part they are still pretty pricey. Recently I was inspired to once again look at what was available. Native Instruments Reaktor Blocks looked good, but was still a bit steep for my budget. Fortunately I discovered Audulus. While other software synths spend development time and energy on making a user interface that looks like a traditional modular synth, Audulus has captured the essential nature of the underlying principles. The interface is simple and elegant and has no unnecessary fluff to get in the way. Everything you need to build your own patches is included. All the basic components found in a typical modular synth are available and the performance is outstanding. I continue to be amazed at how smoothly the application runs even with extremely complex patches. Definitely the premier software modular synth for the Mac and iOS.
