SynthScaper LE

SynthScaper “Full” is an amazingly powerful audio creation tool. This “LE” version is somewhat mis-named, in my opinion. It is also a very powerful little brother and adds Audio Units functionality to this excellent suite. I hope we see a similar “FieldScaper LE” in the not too distant future.

Amazing sounds. Was expecting MPE or a multi-timbral engine for my Seaboard but I can deal with "lowest note priority". Maybe in the next update it will detect the Seaboard Block and configure the MIDI CC responsively. Being able to lock the pitch bend range to 48 would be nice but I can just save over the presets. Channel pressure assignable? These are actually minor gripes. 100% worth the investment.

The apparent inability to simply choose sounds presented to the user in list form is a completely baffling and maddening choice by the developer. It is a huge roadblock to interaction with the app and makes no logical sense. The sounds themselves are OK. I’ll try using a different keyboard to trigger the app and will hopefully have a better experience.

Just buy it. Is that good !

I never expect too much from a new app, but this one deserves a positive review. The sounds, especially the pads are deep and have feeling tied to them. An excellent synth for background film soundtracks, which is exactly what I do. Great job!
