Radio Organ
Lo-Fi Tube & Radio Organ
$5.99
Drift through vintage airwaves. Radio Organ combines a rich tonewheel synth, glowing tube saturation, interactive spring reverb, and an dynamic EM80 radio sweep.
Radio Organ brings the warm, dusty, and unpredictable character of mid-century broadcast radio straight into your iOS DAW.
Part vintage tonewheel organ, part vacuum-tube shortwave receiver, Radio Organ lets you play lush organ chords while sweeping across dynamic AM/FM frequency bands. Tune into crisp, locked-in harmonics or drift out into soft heterodyne squeals, static textures, and warm tube saturation.
Whether you're scoring a lofi track, adding vintage warmth to a track, or searching for an inspiring AUv3 instrument for live performance, Radio Organ delivers an unmistakable hardware experience.
