NEXT: Single Cell Software Caustic Music Rack
Single Cell Software Caustic Music Rack, Free
Inspired by Propellerhead’s Reason, this is a significant soft studio release for Android that contains virtual analogue, PCM and bassline synths, a sampling drum machine, a mixer with delay/reverb and six insert effects and a 1-song sequencer. A paid version is available as an in-app purchase.
Oliver Wittchow nanoloop, £1.76
Purists will insist that it has to be used on the Game Boy, but nanoloop is now available to Android users. It’s a step sequencer-based app that lets you work with six channels, each of which can be either a synth or a sampler. You can use up to eight patterns and two instruments per channel.
Fleetway76 Synthoid, £1.49
Billed as a retro-style analogue synth, Synthoid can be controlled using your phone’s touchscreen or by moving it around in the air and triggering its accelerometer. The synth engine features three oscillators and two LFOs, and a selection of presets is supplied to show off what it can do.
