App Modular Synth 

NAMM 2015: Waldorf Wavetable Eurorack Module, Attack App, Nave Plugin, Jomox Rackonizer

Das ist eine iOs App auf Basis von Wavetables und ist sowohl in seiner Komplexität mit Modmatrix und Wavetable-Synthese als auch sonst ein eigenständiger Synthesizer – natürlich drängt sich der Vergleich mit dem PPG Wavegenerator auf, der nun seinen Erfinder Wolfgang Palm als Konkurrenz hat.
