rymdigare addict here: I need more!

I am soooo lazy. I love crap-to-gold converters like rymdigare, an fx you can slap on pretty much anything and it sounds great!

what are your recommendations for auv3 apps or app combinations that convert your pedestrian sounds into bliss?

Init patch FAC Alteza. Don’t touch that dial - no need to!

I share your enthusiasm and I think Lunar Lander can deliver something great for you as well.
Also in the free department, why not try Magic Dice?

Worth pointing out that LL has now been dropped from iOS, going forward.

Baby audio magic dice. Literally roll the dice to sound more better

Oh I didn't new Lunar Lander doesn't exist anymore on iOS?! It's a beautiful effect! I really like to use it

A couple of suggestions that are very different to your example, but are sound-gooderizers nonetheless:

WOOTT - Like the infamous OTT plugin (from the infamous Ableton preset), this plug offers downward/upward expansion and limiting offering the ability to drastically (It can be used quite subtly, also) hype the sound of any part/track.

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/woott/id1511149985

Another suggestion for anyone who does anything that uses beats would be some kind of transient designer. Great for tightening/slackening transient material. I've yet to settle on one for iOS, but so far I know that 4pockets and FAC both have offerings.

This!

Fieldscaper, using its looping option in the FX slot of AUM/Audiobus to process the audio signal.

And Dedalus, surprised that nobody mentioned this.

I think a lot of people can find the interface of both apeSoft/Amazing Noises and Igor's apps a bit intimidating, which leads them to be unfairly overlooked sometimes. For anyone who feels this way I would strongly urge them to check out tutorials and read the documentation and they're truly outstanding tools which are often unparalleled on iOS (or anywhere tbh!)

In the case of Dedalus, you don't even need to understand the controls. The presets are amazing, and you can get impressive results by only use these, without tweaking a single parameter.

There are a lot of professional Kontak libraries that were made by simply applying a Dedalus preset to the notes of an instrument, and people were amazed, paying for the libraries.

Indeed, Dedalus is the iOS tool that I'm missing the most in my Mac, much more than Rymdigare (which I also love).

But you're right, other tools from ApeSoft/Amazing Noises are equally impressive, but not as intuitive to use as Dedalus.

Holy shit! Seriously?? I need to use it A LOT more than I do!

Also, as an aside, your username always makes me think of Dr Hilario in The Crying Of Lot 49 (which is a beautiful thing in itself)

I'm the worst Pynchon fan in the world, because I still haven't read The Crying of Lot 49. But Against the Day and Mason & Dixon are two of my most beloved readings. Now, I really need to read a novel in which one of the characters is named Dr Hilario.

Regarding Dedalus, the worst thing that I can say is that it doesn't save the current state of the plugin in AUM. Giving that most of the AUM channels in my live jams include instances of Dedalus, I use the text notes function in AUM to write what preset is loaded in each channel.

I always thought there should be a group of graf artists called the Whole Sick Crew and whenever I'd see initials on tags I'd look for (but never find) WSC

I always forget that AUM has a notes function and end up making notes on paper which I either lose or forget which track they relate to (because I can never remember what the tracks are called)

I love the shit out of that book and ended up sampling a bit of the audiobook here so that I could force people to hear at least part of it and maybe have them want to know more (but nobody has ever asked so they either already knew of it or weren't interested. Sorry, T.P. - I did my limited best)

Not sure what its non-state-of-being entails. Probably best to commit-to-audio anything that would suffer if it completely disappeared.

Hehe it's down to Pynchon's material, not anything I brought to it. Crazy to think, but this was pre-iOS musicmaking (at least it was for me). It almost feels like a Common Era epoch-defining signifier to mark things out as before and after iOS musicians!

This is reminding me I have a hardback of Mason & Dixon which I haven’t read… just checked, first edition no less.

Alteza unit preset was my first thought too - though usually I turn the wet down and the dry up. Spacefields is definitely another but it's not as instantly musical as rymdigare - generally need to read the manual and tweak presets a fair bit to get good results

Yup way too recent.to be abandoned.

I know folks say how good we've got it in iOS land with all these bargain little toys but I'd rather pay more and buy less on the understanding that I'll still be able to use it in few years

Cost me £4.50 from a local 2nd hand book shop! Maybe worth a little more than that.

Would be cool if @chowdsp did some more experimental delay and mod stuff, eh?
