Inspired by the Korg Kaossilator and the Moog
synthesizer Saucillator transforms mobile devices into a platform
for creating and playing digital synthesizers. It uses the
touchscreen to manipulate oscillators and effects and it also
allows for live-looping and recording.
Users are able to play custom synthesizers using the x-y axes of the touchscreen. The x-axis corresponds to amplitude (volume) and the y-axis corresponds to frequency (pitch). Playback can also be looped recorded and EQed using a Parametric EQ.
On top of performing Users are able to create their own custom synthesizers which consist of a custom timbre and user-defined effects. A small variety of timbres are included: Sine Square Saw Pulse Noise (white)* Theremin "Singing Saw" "Electric Eel" and "Starslide." These as well as any user-created synths can be mixed and matched at different harmonics amplitudes and phases to create custom sounds.
Each synth has customizable fx parameters as well including Envelope (ADSR - attack & release) LFO (rate & depth) Delay (rate & decay) and Note Lag.
Other abilities:
-Choose scale: Pentatonic Major Minor Blues or Chromatic
-Choose the base note for the pad.
-Control the grid size.
-Record to the SD card.
-Toggle visualizations. More to come here.
Notes:
*I fully intend to make noise scale with frequency and actually become useful (e.g. "Red" Noise).
Permissions Needed:
- SD card access: for saving instruments and recordings.
- Vibration: For haptic feedback.

Saucillator 2.0 Buffalo. I think it's the sauce boss!
