Developer Alexey Nadzharov has introduced rrarrow – described as an ‘experimental modular audio effect and noise machine’ for the iPad.
Features:
- Simplicity – The interface is simplified for faster assembly and more flexible connectivity – you can assemble your effect very fast and control all the processing parameters with the audio signal!
- Feedback capabilities – You can add feedbacks to the audio chain to get some chaotic noise sounds .
- Twelve blocks for audio processing:
- Sine generator. Basic oscillator with sine waveform
- Signal multiplier
- Delay
- Frequency shifter
- Envelope follower
- Lorenz attractor
- Quantizer
- Sample-and-hold
- Reverb
- Special Lowpass filter
- Clipper
- Nonlinear shaper (for self-oscillating circuit)
- Audiobus support. Now you can stream live audio directly to other Audiobus-compatible apps! See http://audiob.us for more information. Works as input and filter.
- Background audio support: enabled when connected to Audiobus and user switchable otherwise.
Here’s a video introduction:
rrarrow is available now in the App Store for $3.99.
If you’ve used rrarrow, let us know what you think of it!
Note: iPad2 or newer is recommended for complex presets.
I love the idea of what rrarrow does. I *hate* the sound of these demos. Painful! Really painful.
ouch, using Sine waves at ear piercing frequencies might not be the best idea for a product demo, unless the target customers is a torturer working for the secret police or dog whisperers 😉
had to put my headphones done after 20 seconds…
I have a baby and a cat already, so I’m stocked on annoying sounds for a good while. No need to purchase one for my iPad also
A really cool idea but I have to agree with everything posted above. I don’t know exactly what this app will do as I had to turn off the sound after a few moments…. A lower freq sine or square for the next demos PLEASE! It’s really interesting but the videos are actually hurting the listener (and your sales)!
I was interested until I heard the demos. Ewwww.
