Features & Capabilities

New in 2.0: output meters and a one-tap master compressor, all 41 engines loudness-matched, hardware knob pickup modes, and a layout that fits any screen.

s-2 is a polyphonic synthesizer designed to work with the Roland AIRA Compact S-1.

ENGINE Each voice runs two parallel engine slots that mix together. Pick a sound flavor per slot, including: • Classic analog — saw, square, sub, noise, pulse-width • Wavetable • FM • Speech • Chord • Plucked string

FILTER AND FX Classic mode runs a vintage-style ladder filter into a simple Delay → Chorus → Reverb chain. Modern mode swaps in a multi-mode SVF (LP / BP / HP) followed by a 3-slot Advanced FX rack with Bitcrusher, Drive, Flanger, Phaser, Auto-Filter, Tape Delay, Plate Reverb and Chorus.

MODULATION Two free-routing LFOs (sine / triangle / saw / square / random / noise, with optional clock-sync), a dedicated filter envelope with two destination slots, and a unified mod matrix dialog that visualizes every routing in one place. Click any knob in Learn mode to assign — no digging through menus.

FORMATS • Standalone for iOS • Audio Unit (AU) for Logic Pro and other AU hosts • AUv3 plugin for iPad / iPhone in AUM, GarageBand, Cubasis and more

User Reviews

I want to explore it more but how do I tame the highly random loudness of the patches if I can’t set the main output so that its max stays permanently locked and does not keep changing with every patch? Sure, there is some benefit to being able to save it to the patch, but there should be one master level that controls the main output of the app. Currently many patches clip the input of Ableton when iPad is connected as a source over USB and the level has to be adjusted every time. It does not happen with other apps. Please fix it.
