From gothic to gritty
SampleTron 2 for iPad comes with a vast library of over 400 “tracks” that you can load into any preset—up to 3 at once—and then individually process with IK’s cutting-edge tape modeling DSP for ultimate tone-shaping flexibility.
SampleTron 2 for iPad also shines where it processes our non-Tron material. Here you’ll gain access to exciting new sounds with the choir, strings, brass, organ, piano, bass, and even synths and vocoders that all come included.
We’ve also added vintage digital sample-based instruments such as the Mattel Optigan, Vako Orchestron and 360 Systems Digital Keyboard. And to complete the circle, you’ll find the full content of the much-revered original IK SampleTron product.
Authentic sound and vibe
All 11 models are gloriously detailed and designed to give you the immersive experience of using actual vintage gear right on your iPad, even to the point of exposing their inner workings, all while maintaining uniform ease of use and functionality across the board.
Make it your Tron
Your own samples can now be easily loaded and mapped to take full advantage of the tape processing sound using IK’s industry-leading tape modeling technology. A panel of global controls along with six tape controls let you dial in exactly the right mood.
All the tools you need
SampleTron 2’s edit mode lets you dive deep into the preset parameters with controls for volume, pan, fine tune, transpose and high & low note range for each Track. There’s also synthesizer-style controls including a filter with selectable type and an amplitude envelope with velocity control for each track individually or all tracks combined.
Effects like no other
Effects include a Channel Strip equalizer and compressor, Tape Echo, Multimod—with selectable chorus, ensemble, flanger, phaser, Uni-V and Rotary Speaker—and the new Vintage Plate Reverb that’s based on the Plate algorithm developed for AmpliTube 5.
Expansive versatility
SampleTron 2 for iPad works as a standalone app or as an AUv3 instrument plug-in. Use it with your favorite AU host apps such as GarageBand, Cubasis, AUM, Beatmaker, Auria and more. It also supports MIDI learn and standard MIDI keyboard control for nearly all its functions.

Crashes! Error messages!

I keep giving IK a chance to show me they can tackle this iOS market. And they disappoint almost me every time ( the “almost” being Mixbox which is a masterpiece) . But This is the last. Anything involving the files system cause an error. Can’t load or save samples with an error. For $99 I expected better. I’m sick of paying for the “potential” of IK media apps and regretting it. I won’t do that again.

Better than I thought initially

Alrighty then..... on

I’ll not go into an in depth review. I was very upset that there is not an option to not loop the sounds. I like the taped samples to actually end as they did on the original Mellotron. This makes me question if all the samples were actually sampled at their full length. The samples in the free sample pack download are only about three seconds long. Also some keys continually loop while others actually stop after a few seconds. Why the inconsistency. A little buggy as well. For lower price, I’d recommend looking at Streetlytron Pro, Mellotron XL, and Mellowsound. These are a bang for the buck and give a more authentic Mellotron experience.

Every time I try to export the sounds from GarageBand to my email, SampleTron crashes or becomes disabled
