Laplace - AUv3 Plug-in Synth App Reviews

This is a great synth but you can't go buy just the presets. I had to start digging into them and making adjustments before I found the real magic in this synthesizer. And it is magic. The arpeggiator it is one of the best and combined with the sounds that are possible inspires some pretty amazing creativity. This one has my recommendation.

The single screen makes for a compact app that's easy to tweak and shouldn't be daunting for beginner patch designers. Laplace and Lorentz are both affordable, usable, and bug-free. Neither is an iOS staple, but both could be a good entryway into learning the concepts of synthesis. Laplace is a bit more of a niche tool than Lorentz, but I coaxed much more unique and memorable sounds out of this. Like others have said, the presets don't do Laplace any justice. Just for the record (it can do mo

Synth fans may at first be surprised at the lack of access "under the hood" to the deeper features of this synth. What is then surprising is how much variation can be dialed in with the controls provided. It has a unique, if somewhat thin voice and can provide many struck string, percussive, and blown sounds. It is a companion to Mersenne, which is similar sounding but based on percussive sounds.

it works beautiful. Try it!

Very nice resonator synth. Great interface. Cool arp. Crappy presets and so-so reverb. I use it with Audiobus and AD 480 reverb and this puppy sings!

Don’t let the presets fool you, this synth can sound like the jaws of hell if set it right, can’t wait to hear it on a big soundsystem.

Fantastic take on physical modeling and basic FM. I could see amazing potential if more FM operators were added. Great synth for experimentation and generating really interesting patches that are unobtainable in a typical subtractive synth. Question: what is the difference between the Resonator types A and B? Could you give us a better description of the Resonator Strength and Color controls in addition to being an APF? Thanks for a really interesting product!

I have had a continual appreciation for the sound of this synthesizer, over the few years it has been out. One the best things about iOS is being able to have a collection of different types of synthesizers, and this one is unique and simple, and is a musical interpretation of physical modeling synthesis. I like and use Mersenne as well, and consider them to be part of a set, but if you are starting out, Laplace is the one. The sound is something interesting to me, as kind of a missing addendum

Lots of good sounds coming out of this one! Like all of their synths! Get it now!

Perfect for creating lovely 4th world soundscapes

Incredible sounding app! Very versatile. Especially superb for metallic, resonating bell, gong type textures. Big thanks to the developer for keeping up this and the other apps🙌🏻

Thanks. Your advice worked, and even though the Mac App Store asks us to pay again. Once I click buy, it recognized I had already purchased the iOS version, and it was free. I’m looking forward to the rest of your apps on Mac.

After creating 8 beautiful and distinctive patches in this synth, I can truly say it is one of my favorites. The blend of percussive, resonant, and FM synthesis is compelling and surprisingly deep. Had an issue which I thought was due to this synth, but turned out to be a configuration problem with my DAW. IceGear support was very prompt and helpful!
