Description

ButterSynth is a hybrid 6-oscillator wavetable/FM/sample-based AUV3 and standalone synthesizer with a vast sonic range, from gentle pads to screaming leads and basslines.
Mix any combination of wavetable, FM, sample and other synthesis engines for one truly massive sound.
For the more advanced users, you'll love using ButterSynth's thoughtfully designed interface, incredibly powerful modulation matrix, fully-featured internal FX rack, factory waveform and sample libraries, and almost limitless scope for fun, experimentation and sound design.
For less experienced synth programmers, ButterSynth includes a library of hundreds of ready-to-use presets, sparking your creativity to start making music right away.

Headline features include
- Mix and match any combination of 6 synthesis engines to either emulate your favourite synths of yester-year or build a synth ready for the future.
- Dual-wavetable engines also feature 9 phase modes, wave folding, and deep unison controls modelled on vintage hardware synths.
- Built-in wavetable editor gives you the ability to tweak, morph, and hand-draw your own custom wavetables, with each wavetable supporting up to 256 frames.
- FM engine offers 4 operators with a selection of 12 modulation paths. Each operator can be loaded with any waveform from the factory or user library, and can also self-modulate via the feedback dial.
- Sample and Granulator engines both let you load samples (either imported or from the factory library) and control precisely how they are chopped, triggered and layered. Both also feature the same powerful unison modes available in the WT engine.
- Highly configurable 32-slot modulation matrix featuring precise mix/max ranges, self-modulation (via the amount target), plus configurable response curves and layer modes. Simply long-tap any parameter to set it as a Mod destination!
- Full suite of versatile control sources which includes: 4x MSEG-style looping curve envelopes, 4x LFOs, 4x step sequencers, X/Y pad with motion recording, 8x Macro dials and a powerful arpeggiator inspired by Kirnu Interactive’s Cream.
- The EFX rack lets you build your own insert effects chain using any combination of the 16 built-in FX modules. Modules available at launch include delay, reverb, distortion, chorus, OTT compression etc. Note - FX parameters can also be targeted by the mod matrix, unlocking the possibility to program ‘per voice’ modulated effects.
- All presets, wavetables, samples and other settings are stored in the Files app, making bulk import/export, backup and community sharing quick and easy.
- All of this is housed in an irresistibly designed 4-tab UI that makes synth programming quick and fun.

ButterSynth Reviews

Thank you 🙏

Working perfect now ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️+

I love it but 😪

TearZ AJ on

The synth it self is well thought of, easy to use for beginners and enough to do for the Experts. I tried finding somewhere to report bugs didn’t wanna do it here but …… I can’t freeze / render the tracks the synth turns unresponsive or the sine wave turns real odd , especially selfmade patches that I saved. Deserves ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, get these things fixed and I will be glad to change my review ( especially bug reporting )

M1/mac os comp. For thus great synth please !

Really great synth ! Please make it Apple Sillicon / MacOs compatible !!! Totally enjoying it on iPhone

This one is a gem for the iPad and great sounding!

PatPier on

It has really been cleverly designed for the iPad. It feels like that you are turning knobs and moving sliders on a physical synthesizer. With the 5 oscillators, 4 LFO’s, 4 curves, 4 sequences, 4 macros, X/Y pad, 32 matrix slots, an elaborate arp and lots of FX’s, you can build any crazy sounds you can think off. ButterSynth is a keeper!

Not very good

PDXPNWORWA on

Limited selection of wave tables. Most are just single samples. Sample module has consistent buzz with unison and all effects/modulators off, whereas same sample in Koala with no effects sounds rich and full. Not sure what your signal path is like but I can’t get a reasonable sound. FM module is very limited. LFOs are extremely simple to the point uselessness. Like, seriously, no phase offset? Just amplitude and rate? I mean how’d you lose one of the three complete waveform descriptors? Terrible.

Almost top tier, yet deserves 5/5

I’ve successfully recreated synths from popular songs with this app alone for a much lesser price. It would help a lot to make additional midi mappings such as a toggle for the arpeggiator. I’m fairly new to this app so this feature may or may not exist… yet.

Great with hopeful potential

I love the character of sound this app provides but I have a few requests for possible updates. 1) The square wave LFO is not square. It sounds like it’s running through a slew limiter. You can’t use it to tune interval jumps without glide. It always has glide. No trills possible. 2) Same for the step sequencer. It always has glide/slew. No discrete steps without glide. The modulation matrix is what sold me on the app but these basic routings offering unexpected results makes me wonder what else I might run into. The waveform system is absolutely wonderful and the filters sound great. Hopefully slew (and sustain pedal) can be addressed in updates.

Great synth but can’t save custom preset??

SashaSmart on

United States

Amazing synth, fun to use, but I can’t save my preset. Save button just doesn’t do anything… gonna have to use SynthMaster, I guess. Also, there’s no undo function in the wave table editor, which is very unfortunate.

Does not show up as auv3

Raven's Nest on

United States

In Cubasis, AUM, or Audio Evolution. Does show up as IAA, and standalone, if this bug is not fixed I want a refund. If it is fixed quickly I will amend this review, but currently one star as it is useless to me.

Changes preset every time I press play

palace.io on

United States

Every single time I press play it changes to another preset. I just bought this. I’m very disappointed. I thought it would be better.
