Zed Physical Modeling with mic input iOS Synth

remember Patch Morpher? The interpolation tool for sound creation on hardware synths – here’s the first synth of JazzMan – which can listen to the microphone re-model it and use this as a synth waveform but can also just synthesize sounds from oscillators via filter and stuff – the GUI is nice – you can just move the whole user interface by swiping it – so you can see the structure, the physical model engine and resonantors, the „mallet“ section, 2 OSCs, filter like this: added is sort of Clavia…
