its a full synth and of course it has waves ;) – there’s not much more about it on the web so far, but you might expect a PPG Wave Emulation, it is a bit of that plus Arpeggiator and other features you might not want to miss. But hang on, until all is public.looks very much like I want it since it has all the wavetable stuff in it and it uses todays tech, it is so easy to create additive waves on the iPad, so I wonder why noone did it before, …
