Description

GlitchScaper is a rhythm machine with six sound generators, each controlled by a two-layer cycle sequencer, designed to easily create glitchy patterns and scapes.

To quickly find new ideas, each generator has separate options for making sequences and tones. The parameters of the new sequences and tones are set randomly, but are guided by several user-defined options, which in outline define the steps of the sequence and the type of tone or noise. This allows you make a quick draft of a pattern and then simply tweak it to get the final sound. The advanced copy function gives you ability to quickly make a new preset by copying sequences and tones from existing ones.

The tone generator makes bright and rich sounds based on 12 complex waveforms or various types of noise, and can also use an external input as a signal source. Effects transform the tone from smoothly varying to full of squeaks and rattles. Each effect is modulated by a special envelope generator with different shapes that change throughout the sequencer step.

The sound generators have individual spatial effects, as well as a common reverb space for all generators that adds an ambient layer to the final mix. The final mix can be even brighter and heavy or pumping with the built-in harmonic exciter and bass enhancer.

The intuitive interface and powerful sound design features make this application super convenient for creating your own, unique sound.

GlitchScaper is great for creating simple beats with an interesting and unusual sound, but it was originally designed for digital distorted patterns with longer steps that blend perfectly with the rhythms of classic drum machines and sequencers.

GlitchScaper is a universal application for iOS and macOS. It can work on iPhone and iPad as well as Mac / MacBook with M1 chip (and later). GlitchScaper works on iPhone and iPad standalone, as an Audio Unit or Inter-App Audio module, and supports Audiobus and Ableton Link. On MacOS, GlitchScaper can works both as a standalone application and as an Audio unit (AUv3) with DAWs and other hosts that support AUv3 plugins. All application features are available on iOS and macOS, including MIDI support (with a MIDI learn option) and audio unit parameters. GlitchScaper has a built-in detailed description of all parameters also available as PDF file on the application site.

Note to iphone only users

THIS IS AN AMAZING PIECE OF WILD SOUND CREATION I loves it. it’s a good thing I have an iPad because on the phone its basically unusable. I mean you can mess around with it make some wild sounds, but you really have no idea what you’re doing. The font is so small. On the iPad I give it a 5 on the iPhone I give it a 2, just cuz its that coo

Another 5 stars app from a Igor

I can only imagine him like a mad scientist thinking about new concepts to make music. This app is amazing to make glitch and noises. Every single app this guy makes is an absolute gem. Thanks A lot

Glitchscaper Atmospheric Bliss

You can easily create glitchscapes to zone out to. The randomization features of the app are top notch. The built-in help makes it easy to learn.

Great app from one of the iOS masters

GlitchScaper is up there with Spacefields as one of my fav apps from this dev for easy, usable sound design purposes. While not as obvious as other apps I figured out the workflow within 10 mins and have been using it everyday for the last week. No one is doing it like Igor and he truly makes creating on an iPad an unique experience.

Unusable interface, illegible font size

The font size on an iPhone 11 Pro Max is illegible if you wear glasses. Accessibility is important, and dropping $15 on an app with such a poorly designed UI is a real shame. There’s no hierarchy in the design, just a spreadsheet with a tiny font. Frankly Apple shouldn’t approve apps that care so little about people with bad vision. The app sounds good, but it will be impossible for me to use beyond the presets.

Already blown away !

I’m only an hour into experimenting and pairing with multiple drum machine programs. But I am already designing new sounds / ideas ‘ projects as it has opened up new creative path for me. As with all the other apps Igor has created, this one lives up to the hype. Thanks!
