Description
A different kind of drumsynth. Ruismaker Noir presents a hybrid approach between synthesized drums and rhythmic bass sounds - coming together in the fully integrated step sequencer. Throw in a nasty, dirty personality and you get something really new for the iOS platform.
Although Noir has a monophonic synthesis engine, the clever interplay with the sequencer and plethora of pitch/velocity modulation options can make it sound like many different sounds are playing, seamlessly blending into each other.
- AUv3 (Audio Unit) plugin, with integrated sequencer
- Basic standalone mode for tinkering or preset creation*
- Universal; runs on any iDevice with iOS10 or higher
- All parameters accessible via MIDI CC and AU Params
- AU MIDI output from sequencer (requires iOS11+)
- Fullscreen plugin GUI in all compatible hosts
- Modest CPU and resource loads
- Handcrafted in the Netherlands
User manual available on ruismaker.com
* note: the basic standalone mode does not offer connectivity. Use the AUv3 plugin mode for complex setups with multiple apps and synchronization requirements.
What’s New
Version 1.1.1
Minor bugfix in the standalone app.
Ratings and Reviews
Ignore any review less than 5 stars
The 4 star review is complete nonsense, the modulators on velocity and pitch are a very new way of working, or you can just ignore them too and use this in a traditional sense, when just using this traditionally it is a 5 star best on IOS drum synthesiser, it is near impossible to tweak in to unusability, in fact this is the best plugin available on IOS AUv3 right now, it is a great synth for creating modern EDM synths for sampling and the best drum synth available, this would easily compete on the desktop, and any questioning of the measly price of this is class a stupidity.
Maybe all I’ll ever need ??
Techno, tech, house, experimental, edm, if you’re looking to enhance your arsenal, Ruismaker Noir sets a new standard for iOS AUv3 drum/PERC/bass synths. Sound quality is stunning, the range of sounds is incredible, and technically, everything is in place, midi in, midi out, full screen AUv3 with sequencer built in, random sound and sequencer generation, and full parameter automation. It could really be all you need.
Inspiring but clunky
I absolutely love the sounds you can make with this but it feels so cumbersome on the iPhone when it’s hard to dial in where you precisely want the node in the sequencer without accidentally nudging it when you let go of the screen.
Many of the controls don’t fit my iPhone’s screen (14 plus) and get hidden by the front camera’s border.
It’d be a dream if I could just load this app/plugin directly on my MacBook so that recording my experiments into Logic Pro wasn’t as obstructive.
