Description

Please note: moodunits have been designed as a set of instrument and effect Audio Units. You need to load moodunits into any AUv3 compatible host application running on iPad or iPhone, such as GarageBand or AUM. The moodunits app is not a standalone instrument. *** Please note that this app is now in maintenance / bug fixes only mode as it relies on "deprecated" (by Apple) technology such as hosting *new* IAP downloads. Existing IAPs should work / download OK *** More about moodunits... Waverley is the principal instrument in the moodunits collection. It’s sample-based, but it isn’t a fully-fledged sampling app that allows you to load and edit your own samples. There are already great apps out there that allow you to do that. Waverley in moodunits is pre-loaded with 30 factory sounds, that can be tweaked to taste via parameters that will hopefully be familiar to most of you. However, don’t worry if some parameter names look technical or scary - just experiment! You can’t really “break” Waverley or make “bad” sounds with it. moodunits also comes with some basic effects, allowing you to create a great sounding musical project using just moodunits and your favourite AU host. In keeping with the moodunits design principal, the effects are light on CPU and expose a few essential parameters. They're probably not going to replace your favourite bells and whistles mega reverb or delay, but their simplicity might come as a refreshing change. Currently these effects include a delay, reverb, low-pass filter, 10-band EQ, peak limiter and distortion. Please note: The moodunits app is not a standalone instrument, but can be used to access a detailed PDF user guide and the MU Store for additional downloads. Once you run the app, your moodunits are registered on your device and are ready to be used for music projects in your AU host of choice. For instructions on how to use Audio Units, please refer to relevant documentation for your host, e.g. GarageBand or AUM, etc. Note for advanced users: with the exception of the filter cutoff frequency and resonance in the filter AU, none of the parameters are exposed for automation. Also, please note that the design goals for moodunits is focussed on ease of use, so some advanced users may find the features basic. The screenshots and demo videos online should give you a good idea of what's possible. If in doubt, please ask.

    Rob I think Mood Units could use more effects as options perhaps something like a Caoineag Chorus or something like that to keep the plugin fresh
  • Splendid!

    Can’t ask for more for your money or for better sounds. Very nice. Highly recommended.
  • Not what I expected

    I was expecting something along the lines of moodscaper or touchscaper with AUV3 compatibility. This is just a shadow of what it could be.
  • Automation for the iOS generation

    This a random thank you because I never dreamed we’d have a synth that’s just as CPU friendly as it is sound quality. And I’ve literally bought tried all the other synths over the last 8 years, so this app is truly the standard. Idk how you made this app happen engineer wise but other app developers need to follow your lead for the most part.
  • Really awesome sounds

    This is now my go-to synth for ambient atmospheric textures and soundscapes. Stunning sounds, light on the CPU, and so easy to zone in on the perfect drones and tones. The MELLOPIANO presets are amazing, and just what I’ve been searching for.
  • It’s great. It’s simple. It’s diverse.

    I usually write reviews about products i appreciate and find to be awesome bemut somehow slightly lacking. Moodunits however is pretty spot on. My only gripes are that it wasn’t clear presale exactly what it was ( that being super easy to edit auv3 synth packs and some added solid auv3 fx compressor, delay, reverb, etc) and other than that the graphics? could use a bit of polish because the sound is super future but the logo is a bit kinkos?🥰
  • Great app and customer support!

    This app, as many here have already said, it’s amazing and a must for anyone into textural ambient stuff, also, the customer support from Rob himself is super quick as I had an issue with the app store in app purchases and it was quickly solved by Rob in less than 10 minutes from the time I initially contacted him!
