Description
Creating sounds with time-varying timbre, on your mobile device.
KORG iWAVESTATION - A wave sequence synthesizer for iOS.
The WAVESTATION synthesizer went on sale in 1990. This instrument featured an advanced vector synthesis system which created new sounds by combining and connecting multiple waveforms; it provided a mix/morphing function that let you use a joystick to change the balance of four oscillators, and a distinctive wave sequence function that allowed you to place waveforms in a desired sequence to create sequence patterns. To this day, it continues to be considered a legendary and still-unique instrument.
Now in 2016, the WAVESTATION has been reborn as "KORG iWAVESTATION," an app for iPad/iPhone. In addition to completely reproducing the programs, it also features a renewed design that lets everyone experience the stupendous sound-shaping potential of the WAVESTATION. It features touch-based operation that's distinctive of iOS, in conjunction with a new graphic interface that allows you to visualize and edit the time-varying timbral changes that are distinctive of the WAVESTATION.
[ Features ]
- A faithful reproduction of the original WAVESTATION sound: In addition to providing the sounds from all PCM memories of the WAVESTATION, the new iWAVESTATION also reproduces in software every detail of the parameters, based on an analysis of the original hardware circuit diagram.
- A new wave sequence view that can be graphically controlled: The iWAVESTATION, we advance another step with a graphical user interface that takes advantage of the touch operations that are a characteristic of iOS. Even more than ever, we've updated the screen design with an emphasis on creating sequences.
- 1,500 sounds, more than 700 waveforms, 55 effects, and a powerful random sequence engine: This new instrument includes a stupendous number of presets and waveforms, covering all models of the series. iWAVESTATION also provides a new random sequence function which will give you different perspectives to inspire new sounds.
- Produce music together with KORG Gadget integration: iWAVESTATION can be used in conjunction with the "KORG Gadget" music production DAW app that has won numerous awards around the world. If both apps are installed, it can be used as the "Milpitas" gadget inside the KORG Gadget app.

Ratings and Reviews
Great addition to the Korg family
I'm sure if you're heavily into synthesis this app might not float you're boat but if you just want to make great sounds that inspire and move , it's excellent. One thing that this misses , unless I've missed it myself , is a hold button so you can use it in background and play over with another music app. I'm not sure if it's worth it once the price drop offer ends but at the initial offer price it's well worth it.
Come on Korg, where’s AU3 support
I have owned many Korg hardware synths over the years and absolutely love each and every one of them but things have changed now and most of us use soft synths inside a DAW which is where this fails. It’s about time AU3 support was added to all their software synths so we can use in Cubasis or GarageBand. Maybe I’m being unfair here but I suspect it has not been added because they want us to use Korg Gadget, which in honesty I don’t like very much. One can only hope that Korg listens to its users as I notice I am not the only one asking for this. With AU3 this would be a 5 star app as it makes it, you know, actually useable for music production.
Deep
If you really want to get down and dirty with this synth I highly recommend using the manual alongside the original reference guide oh and get the players guide for the hardware wavestation as there are blank patch sheets that you might like to print off as there is no way on earth you can keep track of parameter changes if you are designing a complex sound from either an existing preset or from scratch.
