Description

WoodSynth is a synthesizer with 4 independent layers. Each layer is in fact a synthesizer on its own.
Each layer has 3 VCO’s plus a samples or wavetable based source, coming from a file or from recording the audio track.
Up to 16 voices can be set per layer.
Layers can be used in parallel, assigned to a region of the keyboard or used in a sequential mode where the first note(s) on are played by layer 1 and the next note(s) by layer 2 and so on.
This last mode allows to have a different sound per note played (and independent from a keyboard region).
WoodSynth has a polyphonic pitch-bending touch bar which also displays notes received from a keyboard.
Each layer has its own filter and envelope with ADSR per voice, a pitch shifting envelope per VCO, a delay, a basic reverb, a modulator LFO per VCO, 2 general LFO’s and a 16 steps sequencer.
Key tracking can be applied on the ADSR attack and release, on the filter cutoff and on the VCO modulation.

The app can be used stand-alone (device audio input and output) or as a plugin in a DAW.

- IOS plugin type : AUv3 and stand-alone app.

- Has 4 independent synthesizers, each with up to 16 voices.

- Supports MPE and Midi V2.
- Has a polyphonic touch bar with polyphonic pitch bending.

- Velocity, channel pressure, (polyphonic) aftertouch, CC74 can be used to modulate several synth parameters.

- VCO’s have the usual waveforms (sine, saw, square, triangle, pulse and noise) and can be modulated in various ways (FM, AM, Pulse Width, Slew rate)

- Samples can be recorded from the audio input/track or loaded from file (sample files should be in the WoodSynth iCloud folder)

- Wavetables can be loaded from file or converted from loaded or recorded samples.

- Each voice has a 4-pole Moog Lowpass filter with resonance and ADSR envelope.

- An offset can be set in the Filter cutoff for the R channel to create a stereo effect.

- Each voice has a pitch shifting ADSR envelope which can be independently enabled for each VCO.

- Has Key tracking for VCO pan, Filter cutoff, ADSR Envelope Attack and Release.

- Each layer has a delay unit (which can be separately panned) and a basic reverb.

- Each layer has a 16 steps sequencer which can run on multiple voices (poly mode).

- Each layer can set the midi channel and range of receiving midi notes (which allows for up to 4 split keyboard regions).

- Layers can be set in sequential mode : first note(s) played on layer1, next note(s) on layer2, etc.
- Layers have an additional high-pass filter saturation and crush control.

- Synth audio and delay can be panned independently.

- The 2 general LFO’s can have their source from the samples or wavetables (or track input).

- Supports Ableton Link to sync tempo and start-stop.

- Has 4 User Control rotaries which can be freely assigned.

- The User Controls can be controlled by a midi CC which can be set or learned.

- Presets can be stored in iCloud Drive (makes them available on all your devices).
- Supports CV out and Sequencer Midi out.

Woodsynth is more than a synth…

von_KÜHL on

I have become a true-hugger. Woodsynth is one of my favourite synths on AppStore. I love the sounds you can get if you tickle it a bit. It also has a nice layout and understandable interface. But lately I had a problem, apparently a bug had snuck itself into the app… and I couldn’t get to any of the preset. I tried the ususal forums & friends but to no avail, & after tearing the rest of my hair out I mailed the developer. Wim was an absolute pleasure to deal with, and after me describing the problem, the bug got squashed into discardable ones & zeros. The same day a new working update was on AppStore to download. Excellent customer service. I'm looking forward to the next digital carvings from this wood-smith of a developer. 5 stars! All the best from a Norwegian composer.

Lots of possibility

One can get into all sorts of mischief with this instrument. The continued development work on the synth convinced me to buy a bundle of Wood tools. That kind of effort deserves support, particularly when the results sound as good as this synthesizer does.

One of the best synths on IOS

This really is a lovely synth, you can tell the developer cares about their work. It is constantly being improved and new features are a regular event lately. To me it sounds a step above the rest.

Presets still don’t show up

Such a great idea yet makes loading presets unnecessarily complicated, if unusable

Presets don’t load properly

The preset browser is pretty non-functional. Instead of showing a list, you have to open up folders in your files to load presets manually. There appears to be an egregiously overlooked update not being addressed. I’ve written to developer but have yet to receive any response.

Deep but easy to navigate

Great sound being able to combine all the available oscillators and layers together. The app can get deep but all the editing is 1 click away with a few minor exceptions being 2 clicks away. The sequencer is pretty straight forward but makes getting ideas out very quick. It can get fairly cpu intensive if you start piling up the layers but the quality of the patches and sounds I’ve got out of it so far make it worth it. As a note, it’s pretty efficient if you are creating more simple patches. Awesome synth.

Lovely

Watched Doug from infamous sound test room had to get it sounds lovely and appears to be very light on cpu. I will update as I get more use but I know Maple Syrup Studio is trustworthy for updates and bug fixes. I own a few of their effects apps and the level of detail that goes into these are superb.
