Tonaut is a synthesizer, drum machine, sequencer and eight-track tape recorder in one instrument, made to be played rather than programmed. Pick a sound, tap out a pattern and record it to tape, all on one panel that feels more like hardware than an app. SOUNDS • Nine synth engines: virtual analog, six-operator FM, wavetable, pulse, modeled string, a seven-oscillator swarm, grains, a classic analog poly and a sampler • Every engine has a 3D screen that turns slowly and moves with your playing. Tap it for the classic view • Over 500 sounds, from warm pads to glassy bells and growling bass, including 147 sampled instruments • Edit every sound in depth, save your own, and star your favorites • Load DX7-style SysEx banks into the FM engine • Four effects on every sound from sixteen types, including a tempo-synced tape echo, a reverb with tails up to a minute, distortion, an auto-filter, a beat pump, phaser and flanger, lo-fi and tremolo • A master effect, a master EQ and an EQ on every lane DRUMS • 41 kits on three drum engines: kits made from real recorded drums, synthesized kits where every pad is its own drum, and slice kits • Knock and Cinder kits drawn in 3D: every hit rings a plate or makes a drum or cymbal hop • A groove player: hold any pad and the whole kit plays one of sixteen grooves • Make kits from your own recordings or from audio files, one per pad KEYS AND CHORDS • Pick a key and scale and the keys in it light up. LOCK keeps every note in key. Each lane can have its own key • CHORDS plays a whole chord from one key, and works with the arpeggiator and the sequencer • Chord pad: seven chord keys from your key and scale, and a stick that turns each chord into a 7th, 9th, sus, dim and more • CHORD, KEY, STRUM and BASS under SHIFT: switch chord modes, check the key, roll each chord and add a bass note • Play the chord pad from a MIDI keyboard: the white keys pick the chord, the pitch bender and mod wheel move the stick SEQUENCER • Eight lanes, each with its own sound and sixteen patterns of up to 64 steps • Write step by step or record live, with chords, slides, ratchets and chance • STEP REC: each note or chord you play fills a step and moves on, with rest and tie, also from a MIDI keyboard • Pattern Play: queue the next pattern and every lane moves on together • Copy and swap patterns, for one lane or all of them, copy a pattern to another lane, and reorder lanes • Move a pattern up or down an octave, and see which bar is playing • An arpeggiator on every synth lane PLAY IT LIVE • A Perform page with TONE and SPACE for every lane, which glide back when you stop • An X/Y pad that bends pitch and moves the sound under one finger • One-tap mutes, tap tempo, click and count-in TAPE • Eight tracks of 20 minutes each, or six tracks of 30 minutes, chosen per project • Record every lane to its own track, or several onto one • Loop, reverse, stutter, brake and catch the last 30 seconds you played • A separate tape mixer, and pinch to zoom from a few bars to the whole song SAMPLING • Sample with the microphone, a USB interface, or Tonaut itself MIDI • Play Tonaut from USB or Bluetooth MIDI keyboards and controllers, on the selected lane or with each lane on its own channel • Send any lane to your own synths and drum machines, with clock and start/stop SHARE AND EXPORT • Share a loop from the tape as a vertical video or as audio, ready to post • Send a whole song, samples and all, as one file to a friend, who opens it in Tonaut as a project of their own • Export a stereo mix, separate stems as WAV files, or MIDI files of every lane • Optional iCloud sync between your iPhone and iPad One purchase covers iPhone and iPad, each with its own layout, in a light or dark housing. On iPhone there are three more, TN-1, TN-1 Dark and TN-XY, with an LED in every key. No subscription, no account, and Tonaut collects no data. Your music stays yours. Questions?
