Pick a sound, tap out a pattern and record it to tape, all on one panel that feels more like hardware than an app. New in 2.0, it also plays inside your other music apps as an AUv3 plug-in. SOUNDS • Nine synth engines: virtual analog, six-operator FM, wavetable, pulse, modeled string, a seven-oscillator swarm, grains, a classic analog poly and a sampler • Every engine has a 3D screen that moves with your playing, or a classic view • Over 500 sounds, including 147 sampled instruments. Edit any of them in depth, save your own and star favorites • Load DX7-style SysEx banks into the FM engine • Four effects on every sound from sixteen types, a master effect, and an EQ on every lane and the master DRUMS • 43 kits on three drum engines: recorded drum kits, synthesized kits where every pad is its own drum, and slice kits • Knock and Cinder kits drawn in 3D, moving with every hit • A groove player: hold any pad and the whole kit plays one of sixteen grooves • Make kits from your own recordings or from audio files AUv3 PLUG-IN (NEW) • Play Tonaut inside AUM, Loopy Pro, GarageBand and other AUv3 hosts • A big window shows the full panel; a small one shows a compact card with all eight lanes, the tape and a keyboard • Load several copies, each with its own sound, following the host's tempo and transport • Tonaut FX, for effect slots: record another app's audio onto Tonaut's tape. Projects open in the app too SEQUENCER AND SONG MODE • Eight lanes, each with its own sound and sixteen patterns of up to 64 steps • Write step by step or record live, with chords, slides, ratchets and chance; STEP REC from the screen or MIDI • New: Song Mode. Sixteen scenes, each with a pattern for every lane, chained into a song with repeats • Switch patterns or scenes live; copy, swap and transpose patterns, and reorder lanes • An arpeggiator on every synth lane IPHONE DUO • Folded, one octave on the outer screen. Half folded, the screens above the keys. Open, the whole instrument. Folding never stops the music KEYS AND CHORDS • Pick a key and scale and its keys light up; LOCK keeps every note in key • CHORDS plays a whole chord from one key, with the arpeggiator and the sequencer • Chord pad: seven chords from your key and a stick that turns each into a 7th, 9th, sus, dim and more PLAY IT LIVE • A Perform page with TONE and SPACE for every lane • An X/Y pad that bends pitch and moves the sound under one finger • One-tap mutes, tap tempo, click and count-in TAPE • Eight tracks of 20 minutes each, or six of 30 minutes • Record every lane to its own track, or several onto one • Loop, reverse, stutter, brake and catch the last 30 seconds you played SAMPLING • Sample with the microphone, a USB interface, or Tonaut itself • Tap a file in your sample folders to hear it, then load it onto a pad or into the sampler MIDI • Play from USB or Bluetooth MIDI keyboards and controllers, on one lane or each lane on its own channel • New: MIDI learn. Touch a control, turn a knob, and it's mapped • Send any lane to your own synths and drum machines, with clock SHARE AND EXPORT • Share a loop from the tape as a vertical video or as audio • Send a whole song, samples and all, as one file a friend opens in Tonaut • Export a stereo mix, WAV stems or MIDI files of every lane, with optional iCloud sync One purchase covers iPhone, iPad and iPhone Duo, each with its own layout, in six looks: TN-Dark, TN-Light, TN-XY, TN-Signal, OG-Dark and OG-Light. No subscription, no account, and Tonaut collects no data. Your music stays yours. REQUIREMENTS • iPhone XS, XR or newer with iOS 17 or later.
