I have an original WS/AD rack which I love, but now as it ages Im scared to turn it on. Not to worry, I now have this great app. Ive done side by side comparisons, and I would say the app sounds a little better, as in it seems to have better hi freq response. This would be normal considering the A>D conversion is now better than 25 years ago. But where this app shines is its ability to edit, far better than the small screen. Great work.
Cool sounds good drum kits for that miami vice .. or phil collins sound .. hope they add an ability to only receive midi on a specific channel like the manual says its supposed to!
Lots of interesting possibilities with this. The limited functions when used in gadget are a bit of a pain though. Hopefully that will be sorted in an update.
Maybe I'm biased (I own an AD) but for me the Wavestation was one of the great synths of its time. This is a fine emulation- all the classic presets are there. The editor seems fairly fluid- the wavestation is a complicated beast and the interface design uses the Ipad effectively to navigate between different layers. For example, I was able to figure out editing wavesequences fairly easily. The filter adds a resonance button (not on the original) though when I modulate it, it sounds a bit grainy. Korg's Wavestation emulator for PC is a better bet if you want good filters- though given filters were never a focus on the original that's not such a big deal. For better or worse, the Wavestation was one of those synths where you could dial up a preset, put your finger on a key at random, sit back and enjoy. You can do some deep synth programming on this though- just not in a conventional analog synth kind of way. While already rich enough on its own, it sounds awesome when layered with an analog or FM synth.
A classic favourite synth of mine after owning the real one this ones fantastic and very portable being on the ipad. Get it, you wont be disappointed.
