Description
“Unique sounds like syrup with dirt kicked into it. If Bootsy Collins, Roger Troutman and Daft Punk would have met up in Studio 54 to create a soft-synth, for sure something like Unique would have come out of it…” Sound & Recording Mag
Unique was made for fun and vibes: Analogue sound, intense modulation and a killer set of features, delivering an amazing sonic spectrum that’s full of character: Classy sounds, powerful, warm… sometimes gritty.
Each of the 2 oscillators offers a selection of 5 waveforms: sawtooth and pulse waves are here, along with noise, triple saw and triple FM waves. There's also an additional sub-oscillator strapped into the master section for added oomph.
The internal controllers will bring in the dynamics: an LFO and an envelope, there's a recordable XY field & a sequencer. Use these to modulate any knob – a simple long tap will do.
The sound springs to life when it hits the filter section. Needless to say, analogue high-pass, low-pass and band-pass varieties are in place, along with a comb filter.
Standards aside, the actual intention behind this project, the Vowel Filter, also became its outstanding feature: string together two or four vowel formants and play them back in a multitude of ways.
Once you’ve built your sound, there’s tons of sound polish in two chained multi-effect units.

Ratings and Reviews
Good sound...
Still wicked laggy, even on iPhone 7 Plus.
Works Great For Me
It seems like people think the more complex a synth is the better. That may be true if you’re into endless tweaking for sound design. Been there, done that. Nowadays I just want to make songs without spending a lot of time tweaking. So I choose a preset that sounds good to me, tweak it a little and the next thing I know inspiration strikes. That’s Unique for me. No issues with performance in NS2 either. Sugar Bytes stuff is always good!
Super laggy on iPhone 6+
After all this time i would have expected they figured out how to make this synth run smoother on the newer devices. Still as laggy as on my iPad Pro. My older iPad Air 1 is the only device that i own on which this synth runs smooth. Go figure... the more powerful and newer the device the more laggy this app runs.
It really has held me back using this app that often as my other synths. I can't recommend this app for anyone that has a newer iPhone or iPad.
