Igor Vasiliev app poll
Hi there, I really love Igor's apps and and trying to learn them one at a time. They all seem great in their own way but I got to wondering which one is your favorite so I can get advice on which to purchase next.
If you could give me a brief explanation of what you find most musically useful about it?
EDIT: I just realized that the poll only accepts a single selection. Wish there was a way to have multiple choices...

Having tried most of them, for me it’s all about fieldscaper, it is a great way of mangling samples, for example it can mess up vocals in a really unusual way.
Love all of them. Agree with this. Fieldscaper has most of what soundscaper has though moving the sounds across the stereo field is handled better in soundscaper. And fieldscaper can be loaded as fx. I'd master this one and see if you like igor's approach.
Picture this… Fieldscaper as an AUv3
Fieldscaper and Synthscaper are my faves, but I don’t have them all.
Love all of them except synthscaper. For whatever reason, the sounds there just don't do it for me.
Beatcutter has produced the most astonishing results for me - it can seem wildly complex yet if I start with everything at 'zero' I can now aim it in the direction I want and sit back and be amazed - as far as 'musically useful' goes it can easily create twiddly flourishes and extra sonic candy - or ear splitting dirges if that is musically useful to you.
Hard decision 😩
FieldScaper edged SpaceFields by a very narrow margin.
I have all of them. They’re great apps for getting something started without composing melody.
As others have said, it would be amazing if some of the older ones could be converted to AUv3.
No SynthScaper LE, or is that SynthScaper?
I only have a couple of his apps, but synscaper LE is AU, low price and can do all kinds of great pads, drones, ambient sounds, etc…
O, good to know. I was assuming LE was a light version of Synthscaper so I didn't include it. I guess I could try to edit it but I might reset the poll.
Only have Altispace 2 and use it a lot, especially for spring reverbs.
Soundscaper's bit shifting thing looks really interesting! Surprised there are no votes for it yet!
BeatCutter, with "milder" settings, can achieve something like the Chase Bliss Habit pedal, in that it can surprise you by playing back a snippet that you played and was sampled a while ago.
From my experience, I would recommend disabling the bitmask parameters in the Control buses. The results are interesting, but they can quickly become kinda samey, especially if you're using the feedback feature (which makes the makn output go back into channel 4).
It has to be Beatcutter. One, it's probably Igor's magnum opus. And two, nobody had (or has) a &*#£! clue about what it does and how, and the absolute scenes of people trying hopelessly, but valiantly to build the most basic understanding of it when it came out offered some of the best entertainment on this forum, and possibly in iOS music history.
It was a hard choice but Spacefields for me
It is a tossup between Beatcutter and Spacefields.
Both are my experimental go tos.
Beatcutter is easier for me to steer but Spacefields produces some great soundscapes though its like a super car with no hood you can open
LE is the cut-down and AU version of SynthScaper. No need to include it.
O, thanks. I did download it and right away came up with something really beautiful. And got it to work with my MPE controller.
LE is a beauty for pads.
It’s interesting that there’s no runaway winner and that people are voting quite differently.
The guy is a mad genius.
Synthscaper; pro software
Wow surprised Soundscaper and Soundsaw are so low. That said I love them all (except vintage rack which I haven’t tried - YET) but if I had to chose it would be Soundscaper or Fieldscaper. Soundscaper takes some getting used to but it’s so good.
I tried AltiSpace 2 and it doesn't really do much for me but it did get me interested in convolution and impulse responses. I don't care much about conventional reverb sound so have been looking for some IR files that are made from unusual sources. Haven't found any yet. Would've been happy without it, but it got so many votes!
Yesterday I watched a tutorial on Soundscaper and love it! I love the bit register deal. And the morphing looks great.
You might like the IRs that Venus Theory and Benn Jordan made. Because these are IRs made in a very extreme environment, underground tunnels and caverns, it may take a fair bit of dabbling to find one that sounds right depending on your sound source.

Audio Mastering is my absolute favourite. I use it all the time.

Thank you for this @Gavinski !
Thanks! I didn't even know about this one. I'll check it out too.
I think it’s been pulled out of the AppStore. Sorry
No worries. Gee, I wonder why?
