Arturiia has updated iSEM – its software clone of the classic 1974-vintage Oberheim Synthesizer Expander Module (SEM) for Apple’s iPad -to support AudioBus 2.
Audiobus 2 can handle multiple, independent pipelines, with as many inputs, filters, or outputs as the user wants. Thanks to Audiobus 2 support, iSEM users can save presets of their connection graphs and share them via e-mail or social networks.
‘Being the owner of the original hardware synth,” says Depeche Mode keyboard player/programmer/arranger Alan Wilder, “I can confirm that this virtual app stands up, providing a combination of complete familiarity combined with total stability, versatility, and the welcome addition of plenty of presets, plus extra pages and functions.”
iSEM 1.0.2 is available now in the App Store for US $9.99.
I can *highly* recommend using this with the new Beatstep sequencer thingy Arturia makes. I swear I’m not being paid to say this.
