Description

HOWL is a simple vocoder/synthesizer. It uses formants to simulate the human voice and a pitch-space keyboard to help you find interesting melodies.

Features:

• Simple synthesizer (just a sawtooth wave nothing too complicated okay)
• Simple vocoder (four parallel bandpass filters, a bit like the Klatt engine)
• Audiobus support, so you can pipe your own audio through the vocoder and/or send the output to other software
• Adjustable pitch-space keyboard
• Cool FX (bitcrush, reverb, vibrato and tremolo)

HOWL is also open source (check out the code at https://github.com/dclelland/HOWL).

Howl

Can't hear hear this at all, not very clear and no instructions, help.

Developer Response ,

Hi there, there was a bug in version 2.0 where if you were on an iPhone the sound would come out of the earpiece rather than the speaker. If you were using an iPhone, can you tell me if this is fixed in version 2.1, and if so, would you consider updating your review? :)

Simply fails to work.

Downloaded. Opened. Tapped in the vowels area. Tapped in the pitches area. No sound whatsoever.

Volume up, sound coming from other apps. It’s just this one which makes no sound.

Interestingly, I found another huge bug in seconds. Set the vowels area to “hold”, switched away and back to app. Turned “hold” off. UI doesn’t switch back to “no hold” mode.

This app just hates my iPad!

Hi, sorry to hear you're having trouble. Have you tried tapping in both the pitches and vowels areas at the same time? If it still doesn't produce sound, please let me know - as this must be a bug.
