This update refines Dual and improves Save Blend reliability, including fixes for iPad portrait and landscape workflows. These changes were driven directly by customer feedback. We take user-reported issues seriously and continue to prioritize fixes and refinements that improve the experience for the people actually making music with Aether. Also included: additional stability and compatibility improvements across Aether Synth.

Improved compatibility with iOS 27, including enhanced audio-session stability and more reliable playback during fast note passages. Also includes additional stability improvements and bug fixes.

Same Aether. New look. Aether Synth has a refreshed visual identity, including a new app icon and updated branding throughout the app. The sound, workflow, and instrument you know remain the same.

Random Sound has been significantly expanded with a deeper musical generation system designed to create more varied, intentional, and playable patches. The new generator explores a much wider range of synthesis personalities while reducing repetitive results and preserving Aether’s procedural character. Synth View sequences now stay phase-locked when adding notes or octaves, SEQ performances can be recorded directly into Song View, Smart Freeze playback is more stable during long sessions and navigation, LIVE AUTO now defaults to Off, and Dual preset Save/Load has been improved for iOS AUv3. Additional fixes improve sequencer timing, recorded note releases and more.

A quick iOS update focused on faster workflow and preset reliability. • New A/B Swap — instantly swap the two sounds in Dual mode which produces a new variation to your blended sound. • Faster, cleaner preset browsing — preset navigation has been improved for more immediate and reliable switching, including rapid browsing in standalone mode. • Additional stability improvements for preset selection and live performance. Thanks for using Aether Synth!

A major Aether Synth update with new creative tools, shared Custom sounds, and extensive workflow improvements. • NEW Shared Custom Sound Library — Custom sounds saved in Aether Synth can now be used in AUv3, and Custom sounds created in AUv3 are available back in the standalone app. • NEW Drum Sequencer Fills — add fills to your drum patterns, regenerate them for new variations, bypass them, or remove them entirely. • Improved drum generation and Fill behavior for more musical variation across the full drum set. • Faster, more responsive Drum Sequencer editing and playback. • Improved Song View playback so multiple tracks and their assigned sounds play and recall more reliably. • Improved Song View track volume controls. • Improved transitions between Song View and live playing, so new sound and preset selections remain active after stopping a Song. • Improved Custom preset compatibility, saving, loading, and sound recall. • Improved AUv3 Dual mode and Preset B sound handling. • Improved Synth and Sequencer state independence when changing sounds and modes. • Improved handling of sustained notes, releases, and audio transitions. • Additional sequencing, preset, performance, stability, and workflow refinements throughout Aether Synth.
