Description
Free update installable on Apple Silicon Mac
If you have already purchased this App on your iOS device, you can install it on your Apple Silicon Mac for free.
Lagrange is an AUv3-compatible synthesizer that makes sound creation easier by hiding complex parameter adjustments behind oscillator algorithms.
# Universal App
This product is compatible with iPad, iPhone, and Apple Silicon Mac.
Please note that it is not compatible with Macs with Intel CPUs.
# Audio Unit Extensions (AUv3)
This product supports only AUv3 plug-in format. You can use this AUv3 Plug-In in a host application that supports AUv3.
# Notes
- Note that depending on the parameter settings, loud sound may be produced.
- This product can be installed on iPad, iPhone, and Mac computers with Apple silicon (M1, M2). It is an iPad and iPhone app that can run on Mac computers with Apple silicon. It cannot be installed on Mac computers with Intel CPUs.
- This product supports only AUv3 plug-in format. Other plug-in formats are not supported. It can be used with AUv3-compatible DAWs.
- This product is not suitable for the purpose of accurately reproducing the sound of acoustic instruments or other synthesizers. It has been developed with a focus on creating the sound of this synthesizer itself.
- This product does not support MPE (MIDI Polyphonic Expression).
- Because the details of sound creation are hidden within the oscillator algorithm, fine-tuning the sound is more limited than on other iceGear synthesizers, resulting in less sound variation. This is a result of the emphasis on the simplicity of simply selecting an oscillator algorithm, rather than adjusting a number of knobs to find a sound from a vast array of possibilities.
- This product mainly contains basic presets that are useful as a starting point for sound creation. Please note that there are no huge amount of presets. Enjoy making sounds.

Ratings and Reviews
Under-rated synth. The sequence-changing is a USP.
My review disappeared, I think if you give an app another star-rating, that’s what causes this phenomenon? Compact, allows 7,8, up to 9 instances in Garageband on my iPad Pro 2 12.9 inch device, after tweaking a bunch of settings, which all instruments benefited from. Nice sounds, I am thinking the ‘sequence’ bit is either FX built-in, or something else I have not grasped? Anyway like a blind man stumbling around, but much less adept than such partial or non-sighted people are, I found a lovely range of variation of timbre and sound, if I select a different ‘sequence’...the thing i mean, is the little squares that zoom around in the moving demo on the app entry description.
It sounds very like when i rearrange FX on an instrument anyway. I saw the twiddly knobs at first, and thought it was daunting, but it’s been worth spending some time and it is not as hard as I first supposed. As the title says, this is perhaps underrated, certainly was by me, it sat for a while before I realised it was very compact, and GarageBand would let me fit the most instances of any synth into a song using AUv3 - I did the tests on every synth app I have, this was up there at 8 or 9 instances, way more than I had parts needing played in the song.
Excellent synth for beginners
I’ve been using iOS synths for about a year now and I’ve never come across one I took to as immediately as Lagrange. To start with there are plenty of algorithms - as they are called in the app - which give you a good starting point and basis for designing the sound you want. The layout is on one page - apart from the arpeggiator - which gives an easy way of working through the design of the sound without swapping about from page to page. I’m no expert sound designer but even I can get some useable sounds of various timbres from this - anything from gritty to ambient. I’ve been using it to create soundscapes and drones and it does this well also. All in all this has become my go to synth.
Good but
The preset names need to be something more descriptive and there should be more of them.
