Synth Book by Yamaha featuring a fully working AN1x synth (wut?)
This is a weird one. It's an iPhone book/catalogue app featuring a fully featured synthesizer, called AN2015.

Wow, this is great. Appshopper doesn't show anything, but it looks worldwide and multilingual (downloading from itunes).
And I claiming against Yamaha in another thread...
Thanks for the heads up.
Not working over here currently. Will try again later. What a funny run of products, almost out of sync with the time, but some useful/unique aspects to fiddle with.
This is very interesting. Chapters on the history of synthesis, and a full chronological rundown of Yamaha synths. Then there is the AN2015 synth. As yet, no IAA or AB support, but it sounds very nice. 3 oscillators, noise, and 7 filter types. Arpeggiator with 64 types (patterns). AppStore wouldn't let me download to my iPad until I had downloaded to my iPhone. But it's now on both. Come on Yamaha, support for Audiobus next please.
I'm really liking this one. I seriously hope they release it as a stand alone synth, without the books and all the drumloops. Good stuff!
The morphing function on the synth reminds me a bit of Alchemy..., and it's free...
Seems to be made for iphone.
This is cool - I recently traded in my CS1X so this will be a great soft replacement!

very odd!
Thanks, now for AB.
That's too damn weird. This could be the best analog synth for iPhone, hidden in a free app. Great sound quality.
It does sound good!
The presentation is a bit weird, it would have been understandable if the synth would have been used in conjunction with the book, illustrating concepts and such.
Or could it be a teaser for an as yet to be released, more fully featured (IAA/AB capable) app?
Doesn't seem to be available in Texas at this point....
Not at the other end of the US either. I am on the NY Canadien border near the Massena/Cornwall crossing,( so close that I can see Canada's underwear if I look just north.) I can report it is not available here either.
Tried through my iPad and nothing. Went to the top and changed "Only iPad" to "Only iPhone" and voilà!
Good to see another synth that I have in hardware form get released on iOS. First the CZ and now the AN1x. This is a good app and unlike the Casio app it is actually free.
No NYC yet...
Thank you, wouldn't expect to find a hidden synth, even though the app is called synthbook, was a festival app years ago that had a copy of filtatron hidden on the back page, wonder if there are many more like this out there, in the vastness of the appstore.
For the US people, you can just create a UK account to download it...I did
@TGiG Brilliant. Of course, I am actually from there and hold a passport, can find my way out of Hampton Court Maze etc., doesn't seem to cut any mustard with these Apple fiends...
It'll show up on the US store as soon as yamahas U.S. division wakes up, I'm guessing.
In US App Store now... Thanks!
Ok thanks for the heads up
Yendor I'm getting it now.
Don't know why but i get a feeling that there are plenty more stuff to come from Yamaha this year.
The Synth in the app is pretty limited but i do like the noises it makes
That cord mode with the circle effects thing is absolute killer the drums sound really nice actually, gonna be getting flux I think which should make anything sparkle.
nice synth engine, but some modulation parameters are hidden it seems. Also, with only one VCO, its detune knob does detune the sound. I ask myself, detune against what?
Not really made for specific sound design when you don't have access to all parameters, but it's free and sounds good. Nice gift from Yamaha.
It is not a universal app, it is an iPhone app that is iPad compatible, you can get a 2x version of the iPhone app. If you, like me filter on only iPad apps you will not see it. Search the iPhone apps for it. It takes up 148MB, a bit much for a synth.

148mb..That'll be the 80 included drum loops

Thanks Mister Dawg, I was feeling left out there for a moment (whereas now I just feel dumb; a far more comfortable and familiar feeling....
Does anyone have a link for the U.S. store? I'm not seeing it.
Is anyone else getting this - I downloaded the app onto my iPhone and the synth is missing! I get two links to the History pages and none to the synth, feeling pretty frustrated at the moment! And i have ios 7.0 on my iPad and it needs 7.1 minimum...
Found it...
