Pond - Ripple Sequencer by Victorien Genna (Released)
https://apps.apple.com/app/id6779643312
Pond is a MIDI sequencer built on one simple idea: drop a stone in the
water and let the wave play the notes.
Every cell of the pond is a note. Tap anywhere and a ripple expands from
your finger; as its wave front crosses each cell, that note sounds. Where
you tap, what notes you've planted, and how the waves overlap becomes the
music. Tap with several fingers for several waves. Hold a finger still and
you plant an emitter: a spring that keeps dripping ripples in time, on its
own.
It plays better than it has any right to. Generate a fresh pond in any
of nine scales and a key of your choosing, set an octave range, paint
notes by hand with the floating paint bar, and let it run. Turn on wave
interference and the ripples behave like real water: overlapping crests
play louder, a crest meeting a trough plays softer or cancels to silence,
so the dynamics emerge from the physics, and you can see them bloom in the
water.
Pond has a built-in 16-voice synth, so it makes sound the moment you
open it, no setup. It also speaks MIDI to everything else: pick your
USB, Bluetooth, or network synths from a dropdown and Pond plays them
directly, send notes to other apps, or load it as an AUv3 MIDI plugin in
AUM, Logic, and Cubasis where it follows the host tempo and saves with
your session.
Calm, organic, and made for the iPad.

Hey, the Chordpond dev's AI has been cheating on him with Victorien 😂
This looks nice - like something out of the Tenori-On.
(I'd love a full Tenori-On app!)
Not exactly a Tenori-on but have you tried https://apps.apple.com/us/app/xynthesizr/id720810459
Xynthesizr?
I really wish Xynthesizr was AUv3...
this looks interesting but no video in the App Store, nothing on YouTube either (right?)
what mighta been a spontaneous purchase becomes a mid-afternoon Xynthesizer session when I should be working
Cool looking UI for sure! Definitely a step up from Hexatone, their last app, imo, just based on the screenshots
Oh, yes! Xynthesizer is an old favorite! :-)
I emailed and complained about the lack of videos. We'll see
Back in the day Yamaha had an iPad version of the Tenori-On ! AFAIK it was fully featured… just like the hardware.
TBH I never got much useful out of it … but everyone has their own definition of “useful” !
Of course Yamaha killed it like
they do everything.. they are worst for that.. so don’t ever expect it back.
Unless a dev here takes inspiration from it someday!
I saw a short video on the Tenori-On (which I never heard of) and I came to think of Arpeggionome Pro by Alexandernaut (Fugue Machine dude), an app I regretted buying so much. Probably nothing in common, but I had to redownload it and see, hear. Haven't been updated for 9 years, he he.
Edit: it was as poor as I recalled and again deleted, sorry about the misplacement.
Ok, back om track: I took the jump and bought the app. I think it is a little on the expensive side for what it does, and I'd love more features, but what it does, it does very well. It is beautiful to look at and play with, and I have managed to get some nice and interesting freeform rhythms going by setting some emitters and feeding it to OneShot inside AUM.
Thanks! Yeah, devs need to get their pricing right in the current climate. Stuff priced at 3 or 4 bucks can fly off the shelf, anything By an unknownn quantity dev priced higher is not that likely to do well unless promoted by YouTubers.
