About Aparillo
Aparillo is an advanced 16 voice FM synth tailored for complex sound structures , majestic motions, moving and evolving soundscapes and atmospheres that are perfect for film, TV or games.
It‘s not limited to the conventional fm sounds but also delivers a huge range of styles from basses to brasses, pads to leads to even percussion.
••• SYNTH •••
It is based on two interacting FM Synthesizers capable of forming the most complex timbres. A clever arrangement of synthesis, wave shaping, filtering, FX and modulation unfolds into a serious sound design tool for epic sonic creation. Aparillo uses many parameters that can be modulated for individual adjustments PER voice. Each of the sixteen voices interact with almost two dozen targets in a variety of ways for a continuous transformation and to create endless rhythms and melodic progressions.
••• FX •••
The integrated effects include a free-signalflow Filter/Spacial Comb device, a polyphonic Auto Pan with multiple waveforms, the obligatory Delay, our finest Reverb algorithm, and a Sugar Bytes innovation, the Spacializer. This is a very special breed of delay based effect, which can work as a delay, reverb or tuned comb filter and can add room, plucked strings or even pinged percussion to your sound.
••• ORBITER •••
The superstar of Aparillo is the Orbiter, an instinctual "mass-controller" you move through Aparillo's endless sonic universes for one-touch sound morphing. That finally gives you unlimited control over new grounds of sound manipulation. Aparillo for iPad will seamlessly integrate with your mobile studio setup.

INSTANT FILM/TV TEXTURES
The manual was too techy for me to really understand even though I’m a power user. Luckily the synth itself is quite intuitive and encourages exploration. Within minutes I made a murky, lo-fi soundtrack-ish patch that I wanted to save. Not sure if I’m ready to drop 30 bux for the save function but I’m not disappointed in the ease of use and clever design here. They’ve hid a lot of the less-needed parameters so you can get started right away. And it sounds excellent no matter what random moves you make. I like it.

F…..g Amazing !
The title says it all, I think. This review is a long time coming. I purchased in 2019. Love every thing about it. Done a lot of composition and such with it. In fact, I used in very heavily on an album I have on Spotify. This cinematic machine is deep, has levels, very versatile, easy to use, the sounds are f….g tremendous, lot's of control, some awesome features like the Orbit component, super cool, record's hotter than other sources, volume wise. Again, the sounds are spectacular. One of the more pricey apps for Garage Band third party stuff but worth every penny. Anyway, I am going to buy this app for my Logic Pro studio. Cheers!
