Viking Synth

I fell in love with this little synth app on day one of it’s release! Did anyone else notice how it’s a Moog Voyager in disguise? The frequency split does some really cool stereo-affecty-deeliohoo that trips with my mind. Of course, I paid for it! Now that it unbelievably FREE you’re insane if you have yet to add it to your arsenal of sound making kit. It works flawlessly, has a small footprint, and when using multiple instances in Cubasis, GarageBand, Logic Pro, LoopyPro, etc. you can produce a fully polished composition from kick to sizzle, it’s brilliant. Now GO MAKE SOME NOISE! :-)

Using this in GarageBand version 2.3.15 on my iPad Pro iOS 17.1.2 This app is frustrating because it sounds awesome and the presets are amazing, but for some reason the presets only show up maybe 10% of the time I start a new track. The other 90% of the time it just says “default” or “preset” but when I click on it there’s just an empty window where the preset library should be. Sometimes the presets will work on a track but when I click back in to choose a new one they mysteriously disappear. It’s too bad because I really want to use this app but the inconsistency of the preset library is making it untenable for use. Devs do you have any advice? I’ve deleted and reinstalled, powered on and off: still having the same issue.

This synth is can generate gnarly bass tones. It’s my starter bass in my AUM projects right now. It can do acid tones, but more laid back stiff, too. It has a versatile filter section that sounds great. It’s versatile without being cumbersome. Generally, it’s straightforward and easy to use. AND, every parameter can be automated via MIDI. Pair this with some LFO’s to add some tonal variations and “spice” on repetitive basslines.
