Pricing and Availability
SNESynth is available now with an intro price of $2.99 USD (normally $14.99).
another great little Audiokit synth! I love their apps, very inspiring sounds
Awesome, I basically have been using it as a waveform generator the last few days. Kind of like how I use MOK Wavrazor with endless FX. Then tweak them even more in one of my sample editors. So much audio fun. Got this and the SEGA one as well. Great apps.
