App Profile: SquareAcid - Acid Synthesizer

I am going out on a limb and say that SquareAcid responds the most accurately like hardware to knob changes than any other TB-303 or SH-101 emulator on IOS. Honestly, simple knob adjustments actually create new polyrhythms within the beat similar to real hardware units. Adjust the accents, filter envelope, or cutoff, and you can hear the entire character of a repetitive sequence change. Run it through a delay like Yukawa and you are off to some serious hypnotic acid adventures without having to alter the notes of the sequence itself. This is special because usually a repeating sequence becomes boring very quickly even with automation. Sonically, it competes well against Troublemaker, 2XB303, Pure Acid, etc. SquareAcid is not as feature rich as Pure Acid (another monster). No automatic generator of sequences as of this writing. Only a distortion effect (which is excellent) is currently available. But SquareAcid captures the vibe of hardware knob tweaking in a way that is exceedingly gratifying. Definitely well done. Kudos to the developer!

this is so good, I like the clean and simple look of it, it’s easy to use it sounds great I don’t have many instruments that can produce these types of bass sounds so this is great, I have a suggestion make it to were the 6 patterns can chain together in any order as one big 6 bar loop or how ever many bars you want, a whole song mode would be appreciated, I can see this app catching on very soon becoming very popular in the music making world :)
