Sunrizer Synth (iPad)
Date Added: Jun 20, 2011
Sunrizer synth (formerly called ‘Horizon Synth’) is a virtual analog synthesizer for the iPad from the creators of iSequence that takes the definition of iOS synthesizer to the next level. Thanks to carefully designed architecture and heavy usage of coprocessor it blurs the boundaries between iOS and hardware synthesizers. Sunrizer was built to perform and works perfectly with any MIDI keyboard or sequencer. A lot of research has been done in order to achieve unheard warmth and clarity.

HIGHLIGHTS
- True SuperSaw sound emulation, first found in the legendary Roland JP-8000 synthesizer. SuperSaw is a layered waveform consisting of multiple saw waves which are detuned to create an extremely full and epic sound. It’s possible to use 2 supersaw oscillators per voice * 7 polyphony = 98 saw oscillators playing the same time!
- Two independent filters per voice with configurable routing. You can select between various filter types including classic resonant LP,HP,BP,Notch and less common like Comb and Formant.
- The Morph Group function lets you continuously morph of up to 30 parameters in a sound (including effects), using only the modulation wheel.
- Full support for CoreMidi, MIDI mapping with learn function. Support for background audio and Virtual MIDI ports.
OSCILLATORS
- 2 warm-sounding analog modelled oscillators per voice + 2 sub-oscillators (except SuperSaw). Available waveforms: Saw, PWM pulse,Triangle, SuperSaw.
- Oscillator 2 hard-sync and configurable routing
- Osc-mix, ring modulator
- White noise oscillator
FLEXIBLE MULTI FILTERS
- Two independent filters per voice with configurable routing. You can select between various filter types including: resonant LP,HP,BP,Notch, Comb and Formant.
- Configurable routing: serial or parallel with bypass option.
- ADSR envelope, keyboard tracking and full LFO control\
MODULATION
- Two LFOs per voice. It’s possible to assign each LFO to almost any parameter. 3 LFO running modes: trigger, 1 shot, global. 6 waveforms, phase and fade-in knobs
- The Morph Group function lets you continuously morph of up to 30 parameters in a sound (including effects), using only the modulation wheel.
- Two Modulation ADSR Envelopes for amplitude and filters cutoff
- Pitch and modulation wheels
EFFECTS
- A number of effects are built in: distortion, chorus, equalizer, stereo delay. All parameters can be modulated using mod-wheel.
ARPEGGIATOR
- Sunrizer incorporates very powerful programmable arpeggiator. You should think of it more like a small step sequencer.
OTHER FEATURES
- Over 200 presets
- 7 voices polyphony
- Playback modes: poly, solo, arp
- Built-in recorder supporting AudioCopy and iTunes file sharing.
- Supports CoreMidi and MidiMobilizer. MIDI key velocity can affect up to 3 parameters.
- Configurable piano keyboard size
- Hold button allows you to to keep notes sustaining until you play new notes.
- With Chord Memory function you can play the chord by only pressing single keys.
- Tube soft saturation on output

mac plug-in please. au format. 50$ would be fine
The sun rises again for SunRizer!
Great update 2day:
What’s new?
- FM / PM oscillator (True frequency modulation or phase modulation) >> Yeah!
- Triangle oscillator can morph to sine wave >> Cool
- 7 octaves >> it’s ok
- Support for sustain pedal >> Super
Got to d/load it now mates. Bye!
Got it for the iphone during Labor day. Absolutely sick. Supersaw and filter options are fantastic. Arpeggiator is pretty powerful too, though it takes a bit to figure it out. LOVE that it shows level meter – definitely worth the cash. and then some.
There’s a video of it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaAeLEdwW3M
Is sounds great, will definitely try it out.
That synth looks beautiful. I will buy later today. The price is right, too!
checked the demos. it sounds fat !:) damn nice VA synth.
Nice synth . . .
At the introductory price, the question isn’t “Should I buy this if I already have Nlog?” so much as “When should I use this and when should I use Nlog?” Some — most — of this will come down to sounds. But performance will be a factor as well: e.g., will you learn how to program the new arpeggiator? or take advantage of the Morph Group function? Apart from its synth functions, Nlog will also serve (for the time being, at least) as a bridge for apps, such as Technobox, that can export to Soundcloud but not the audio pasteboard.
This app looks excellent, I love how most of the controls are all present at once instead of digging through pages!
