Rast Sound has released Cinescapes Pro for iPhone and iPad. The instrument combines layered sounds with a system for generating and evolving chord progressions.
Users begin by choosing a mood, scale and key. Cinescapes Pro then generates a progression that can repeat in Loop mode or continue changing with Evolve. Its four main sound layers—Pad, Bass, Noise and Atmos—can be mixed and shaped independently, while Shuffle generates new sound combinations. Individual layers can be locked to preserve selected sounds while experimenting with the others.
The app also includes 16 movement Shapes, with the option to draw custom level changes. Filters, delays, Shimmer and convolution reverb provide additional sound-shaping options.
The iPhone interface is designed for portrait operation, while the iPad version includes landscape Perform and Studio workspaces. As an AUv3 instrument, Cinescapes Pro can run inside compatible iOS music applications. Its standalone mode supports background playback and lock-screen controls.
