Audulus 2.0 Now Available

Audulus 2.0 has been released by developer Taylor Holliday for both Mac and iPad. Audulus is a intuitive modular synthesis application that has garnered positive reviews, the latest version adds a Timing mode, better optimisation, Math expression mode and a new store link.

Here’s the Mac version’s features:

• Math Expression node (Math -> Expr). – Enter textual math expressions, like “2*x + y +z”. Available as an upgrade, this node has a variety of uses, including: unit conversion, control-signal mapping, wave-shaping or building custom oscillators. It can also be used when doing math with individual nodes is too cumbersome.
• Timing mode (enabled via the View menu). This shows timings for all the nodes so you can optimize your patch. This is available as an upgrade.
• The Oscillator node now has an amplitude input. If the amplitude is zero, the oscillator takes up much less CPU. Synth patches will see a big performance improvement from driving the Osc amplitude with the ADSR.
• Significant improvement in loading times.
• Audio engine optimizations. The audio engine now takes various shortcuts   when values aren’t changing.
• Bug fixes.

Here’s the new features for the iPad version:

• The Audulus Store. To open the store, tap the Store button in the Patch Browser (left side).
• Math Expression node (Math -> Expr). Enter textual math expressions, like “2*x + y +z”. Available as an upgrade, this node has a variety of uses, including: unit conversion, control-signal mapping, wave-shaping or building custom oscillators. It can also be used when doing math with individual nodes is too cumbersome.
• Timing mode (the little stopwatch button below the lock mode button). This shows timings for all the nodes so you can optimize your patch. This is available as an upgrade.
• The Oscillator node now has an amplitude input. If the amplitude is zero, the oscillator takes up much less CPU. Synth patches will see a big performance improvement from driving the Osc amplitude with the ADSR.
• Significant improvement in loading times. Indicate progress while loading.
• No waiting to close a patch. Patches are saved in the background.
• Audio engine optimizations. The audio engine now takes various shortcuts when values aren’t changing.
• Improved responsiveness of the on-screen keyboard.
• Bug fixes.

Pricing:

• Audulus for Mac is available for US $29.99.
• Audulus for iPad is available for US $14.99.
• Additional features are available as in-app purchases.

We’re looking forward to trying out Audulus soon!
