VocaForm is a monophonic performance synthesizer instrument for the iPhone / iPod Touch. It uses formant synthesis to mimic resonant body sounds such as a voice or stringed instrument. The resulting sounds range from eerily haunting to vintage 8-Bit console-like. A wide variety of additional tones can be created with the included digital audio effects.
The user interface focuses on making live performance simple and expressive. Detailed sound adjustments can be performed in the editing screens.
Features:
- Audio Effects: Delay, Filter, Auto-Vibrato, Chorus.
- Two modes of responsive, touch-based vibrato.
- Responsive, touch-based filter sweep.
- 3 octave, portrait and landscape keyboards.
- Adjust each sound by editing 5 formant regions.
- Editable ADSR envelope.
- Accelerometer controlled volume.

Amazing app!
This app is amazing! There is so much to explore and so much versatility. There seems to be no end to the sounds and effects you can produce and the interface is easy to learn to play. Probably helps to have some musical background.
Underrated and amazing
People who rate this down must have purchased it by accident, so much effort went into this app! It's like having a theremin and 4 fx stompboxes in your pocket, very nice work.
Have no idea how to use it!
I met the developer's Dad at a class I was teaching today; he showed me the app and I bought it on the spot...fun at first but when I played with some of the settings (and being a techno-troglydite!), I was at an impass with no sounds not an idea of what to do.
Is there an instruction section I'm missing? Please put in some SIMPLE INSTRUCTIONS and I'll try it again...Thanks! MT
