All application features are available on macOS.
Also in this update:
Improves compatibility with Logic Pro (iPad).
Added fullscreen mode when using the plugin with GarageBand (iPad).
Optimization of the audio engine.
Some improvements and fixing a few minor bugs.
Built-in description has been updated (also available as PDF file).
Demo of Quasimidi Sirius synth sound processed with VintageRack app on iPad. With addition GlitchScaper app for noise background (apps work as audio units in AUM host app).
Vintage Synth Explorer: "The Sirius is Quasimidi's souped-up keyboard similar to the Rave-O-Lution 309 and aimed directly at the dance market. It's filled with knobs, buttons and cool colors. Designed for total control for live performance or studio work!
Actually most knobs are dedicated to patch editing. It has a welcome new feature, a modern vocoder! There are also 8 control knobs for setting various mixer-type settings (level, pan, fx send). That's right, it has effects on board! It's got a great sound too! Choose from basic categories like 'bass sounds', 'dirty bass', 'pad sounds', 808 & 909 kits and much more! There's plenty of memory (96 user patches) to store your own creations. The filter and envelopes are flexible and sound very good."

VintageRack (iOS,macOS,Audio unit) is a minimalistic and convenient multi-effect app that contains modules realistically model notable retro gears from the early digital age with their natural and warm aesthetics. Most of the effects in this application have been inspired and based on the principles of actual hardware from the 70s and 80s, which is great for giving the sound of any instrument the nostalgic and emotional mood of old recordings.
A brief walkthrough of the app and then a trawl through all of the included presets whilst jamming along with some other apps in AUM.
Ken Karsh - My Romance (Serenading Pandora)
My distinguished feline assistant Pandora is truly the star of this show, as you will see in this performance. The guitars were processed with VintageRack by Igor Vasiliev. I’m having some fun with the Jazz standard (and our wedding dance song) “My Romance.” Enjoy and Happy Holidays!
Synths and Apps EP1: Roland Juno-60 with VintageRack, AltiSpace, Classic FX, SpaceFields
This is a series of short demos of my apps with different synths. How they can change the sound, make it brighter and more engaging or even drastically change it. I really like hardware synths, but these apps will work great with any soft synth on iOS or Mac, also as with a live instruments. So it will be a small series of holiday sound experiments!
Each GlitchScaper generator can act as a gated effect. To use this feature, select the "Stream" mode in the "Tone" section of the generator panel. In this mode, the external input of the app (input of the Audio unit effect) becomes the signal source for the generator. The signal is processed by the generator directly, without recording to the loop. The "Gate" parameter in the "Tone" section defines the envelope that controls the input signal level of the generator. Parameters "Frequency / Envelope", "Frequency / Range" and "Modulate the frequency / Type" are not used in this mode. Thus, the each active step of the internal sequencer opens the gate (run the envelope) and passes the input signal through the generator effects.
The input signal is cut into steps associated to an external rhythm (BPM) when this app is used as an Audio unit in a DAW or host app. That allows you to create ambient or glitch patterns match to the rhythm of a drum machine (or another instance of the GlitchScaper audio unit) from any external sources, regardless of its original rhythmic structure. Of course, for creating ambient patterns with long sequencer steps, it is best to use smooth source material with a not very noticeable rhythm. Using all six GlitchScaper generators as gated effects, you can create quite complex patterns. For example from internet radio.
Tip: In usual mode, the tone constructor (button "Make tone") uses an internal tone or noise as the generator signal source. To use the tone constructor for an external signal, set the generator to the "Stream" mode in the "Tone" section. In this mode, you can use the tone constructor for an external signal.
In the following example, the GlitchScaper processes the signal from the minimalistic streaming internet radio app Ström and creates a patterns that matches well with the rhythm of the drum machine app Elastic Drums. AUM app is used as the Audio unit / Inter-app audio host.

The new "Stream" mode for generators (in section "Generator - Tone") allows you to use this app as a six-channel gated effect. In this mode the generator uses a direct input stream as a signal source. This mode does not use the loop recorder and is similar to how gated effects work. The "Input" mode has been renamed to "Loop".
A new button "Space: On, Continue, Off" has been added in the "Output" section to control the common reverb space and reverb reflections of each generator. With this button, you can turn off the overall reverb space and reverb reflections of the generators, for use external reverb / spatial effects as needed. This button also allows you to make reverb tails continue after the sequencer stops.
Added the ability to create groups of presets. Now the list of presets can be organized more conveniently. You can create groups, move presets between groups and merge them. The "Favorites" group is created automatically when you make a preset a favorite. The "Factory" group contains all factory presets, and can be hidden in the settings.
Added the ability to export and import presets and groups. You can save a preset or group to an external file, then import it into the app on another device.
The "Solo" button has been added for all generators.
Several new factory presets added.
Improved work of generators in loop recording mode (the "Loop" mode).
Sequencer control parameters exposed as MIDI and external parameters of Audio unit.
Added a detailed description of the new modes to the built-in description of the app. Also available as a PDF file.
SoundScaper is an experimental sound mini lab for creating unusual soundscapes, atmospheric textures, drones, glitches and noises based on circuit bending principles.
This was my first experimental app inspired by circuit bending devices and implementing some of these principles. It is well suited for experimenting with creating new and unusual sounds from ordinary samples.
Although it does not support audio units, it can work perfectly as an Inter-app Audio (IAA) module with any DAWs or hosts. And what's important, this app still works with minimum iOS 10, so you can use it on your older iPads where not many music apps still work.
SoundScaper and BeatCutter just made for each other :)
BeatCutter - Rhythm slicing & recombining
BeatCutter (iOS, macOS, AUv3) is an experimental multi-channel app for slicing and recombining sound based on rhythm. In the center of the app is a matrix of sample cells with smoothly reconfigurable recording, playback and control busses. >>> More about this app
This update adds three new datasets that are great for slicing long, smoothly changing multi-timbral samples or external sources. Datasets are used to set specific parameter values when using a template.
Also: Fixed an issue where files added from other apps were not saved in presets. Fixed problem with starting playback in some DAWs (particularly GarageBand). Updated description and fixed some minor bugs.

A quick jam using 2 apps: AudioModern LoopMix (a patch from the free BLEND II bank, called "Marigold Kit 98bpm") and SynthScaper LE (a patch in Soundscapes called "Window at Nebula") inside AUM and using my Arturia Keystep 37. From Colin Powell.
