Fluss - Granular Playground App Reviews

Simple interface, yet endless sound possibilities - with instant randomization of settings by just giving the iPhone a little shake. The magic of granular synthesis easily accessible for musicians of all experience levels.

Infinite soundscape possibilities. If you like experimental granular sonics, then this app is for you. It’s perfect for the kind of stuff I like to mess with—gritty ambient rolling soundscapes with plenty of modulation. The modulation possibilities with Fluss are nearly infinite and bring new dimensions to my library of samples. One of the best music making apps of the year!

This is a very different and innovative granular synthesis app I’ve been playing around with it for a few hours and feel I’ve barely scratched the surface

Intuitive controls, fun to play around with, and lots of unique sounds. Really happy with it so far.

This the most creative and unique iOS music production app to come out in a while! Though there’s nothing like it, it’s very easy to get your head around. It works equally well as an FX processor with live audio as a sound generation source from sample manipulation. Thanks Hainbach and Bram Bos …..this is brilliant!

Fantastic fun music app - such an idea generator! My biggest complaint is twofold: 1. You can’t SAMPLE.. yet this is supposed to be a granular sampler. Having to load wav files from your iOS File explorer is a pain and should be an option. Please add a “sample” button that activates the microphone on your iOS device (see Andrew Huang’s “Flip” for reference). 2. There needs to be preset browser arrows to page through your presets without having to open the pop-up browser window. Fix those two

Only a few hours in. I’m sure I’ll learn more about how to use the synth with experimentation. But some things I’d like: more control. A limit on the panning, filter & scan speed, similar to the way “faders” can be limited. I would also love a way to draw in a line & separate the orbs in the octave/pitch XY pad, having one oscillator “locked” in a row or column (or diagonally), free from interruption with the movement of the other 2. Lastly a way to assign “play heads” that can be triggered by a

Fluss works, at least for me, because like so much of Hainbach’s corpus, it’s grounded in tactile concepts: rebounding particles, tape loops, slow, slow, SLOW time. If that’s what you’re after, it’s a great tool for creating evolving spatial and temporal textures. That said, I can’t give it five stars because of a GLARING (to me anyway) flaw: it stops playing audio if you put it in the background. This means I can’t use an external plugin (like Lines or Filterjam, or BlindEQ) along with it, a

Initially I was not impressed by this. Usually I am underwhelmed, as an iphone developer, by gimmicky new ways to slide your fingers across the “no-so-precise” touchscreen of apples generalized 40pxl radius to work with. This usually makes it so apps like this are good in theory or on paper but not so great in experience. No so with Fluss. I was going about my initial use of this all wrong, trying to maintain consistent control instead of letting go. This tool will help you let the process just

yes, sounds wonderful

Very awesome app can you Please add recording ability from the internal microphone

I love playing around with this amazing app. The sounds they give you to use are great. That said, I wish I could incorporate this easily into my Logic workflow (yea, I know there are ways but it all seems quite complicated to be honest). Any chance we could get a plugin version of this?

Super fun makes a granular not so daunting. To the guy who reviewed saying you can’t sample just load it into a effects slot in AUM if that’s your choice like me. It can sample any auv3 app if loaded into effects and make sure to choose fluss recorder au. That’s all I got for now. Well worth the price imho ! Keep on keepin on guys!

Kinda a ripoff of the beautiful, elegant and amazing SpaceCraft iOS app. Fluss is UGLY , yet powerful. Definitely needs skins like a dark theme to inspire me to use it tbh .
