Best 5 buck synth
At Trader Joes they have Two Buck Chuck. AppStore has Five Buck (and under) Synth(s)
I'll start the bidding with Crystal XT. It's almost not fair, this is a dreamy monster mono synth that has been onscene and evolving since well before iOS. Five bucks, updated yesterday, ships with hundreds of presets, Dropbox gets your iPhone or iPad presets in and out of each other and its other iterations (PC, Mac).
To qualify for list, rule out sales, must have AB and/or IAA
Pretty sure there are a couple more.

Jasuto.
Yep. There's 5 great ones I can think of with Crystal, Jasuto is a 6th I hadn't thought of, trippy and huge. Beyond synth kinda and brings in Sunvox though I'm off on the price, Sunvox is $6 (but free for your laptop so averaging out to be a contender?)
Synth-Q is pretty sweet, and it happens to be on sale for $2.99 right now.

Crystal synth is awesome... but it can do also poly (but on my iPad Air it blow the cpu far away . The UI is hell but the sound is heaven.
Synth-Q really fun to patch with, and the dev has all those scaffolded tutorial patches in there, For We Who Are Still Learning. Fat sound
Nail completely on the head hit. Still, better that way than the other....
The upcoming, any day now, SynthMaster iOS. Free to start with 100 presets; 100 more when registered. This is definitely under $5.00. The $10 upgrade gives you 800 presets.
Sunrizer
76 Synth
ituttle.
Very good vintage analog sound as I see it. Monophonic and paraphonic.
If we're serious about the rules (under $5, not on sale), then NLog MIDI Synth (US$3) or Sunrizer XS (US$3), both formatted for iPhone/iPod Touch. If we stretch it to $6, Animoog for iPhone is great if you don't need Audiobus.
I think I bought Magellan for 5 bucks on sale. Maybe it was a bit more. I love that synth.
Some others I like that are under 5 are:
Neo-Soul Keys
Nanologue
XK-1
Nice To Be Your Friend Synth
miniSynth 2 is $1. simple, no frills, sounds great. and goes into Audiobus.
Synth-Q, iTuttle, DXi, Synthecaster
I'm sure CrystalSynthXT is great but the interface is a little off-putting.

That Crystal mixer page is what throws me. It's idiosyncratic at best. Just generally I still have my nose in the manual after 4 years. Not that I (edit: that "u" was a pretty fukt unintended typo sorry @JohnnyGoodyear if you thought I meant you) have any credentials here, but I'll say every bit of trial and error and study pays off.
Dxi yes!
So glad to see iTuttle love too.
Nanololgue is maybe the best always-free one ever
No love for Argon? Arctic Keys?
For $5, with the Animoog sale right now, you could buy both Animoog for iPhone and Sunrizer XS.
That's what still blows my mind about iOS synths, and iPhone too.
I would like to see some further development on iTuttle, but yeah I like its capabilities.
It's funny you should say that because I just picked up both of them last week. Both of them sound great. I really like Artic Keys sounds and features.
Dxi looks cool. Does anyone know if its' loop sequencer accepts MIDI clock?
Actually, until July 1st our intro price will be $4.99, so even with all 800 presets it'll be under 5 bucks
minimapper / wavemapper are pretty unrivaled imo. nothing else out there like it.

Cool beans. Can't wait to get it, with 800 presets, I'll be busy for a couple months.
Yes, Which reminds me of his Gyrosynth, which had cool sounds and cool mod capabilities to say the least, not sure where it's at re AB
Minimapper is one of the reasons for this thread.
That news from @kv331audio just makes it all so much sweeter

It does accept external clock for the seq, at least from BM2...
AN2015 inside the Yamaha Synth Book. It's free and now has Audiobus and InterApp-Audio.
I like the sounds and I'm starting to like the built in arp & chord presets. Still trying to figure out the oscilloscope screen and whether it is useful.
Bebot for $1.99 is way too much fun.
If I was Joaquin Phoenix I would definitely date Bebot. Maybe vBot too.
Fm4 when it came out.
Springsound?
That AMS one from Yamaha?
