Sliver is a tool for soundscape and sonic texture creation.

New version 1.07
Old version 1.06
Release Notes MIDI ADSR uses an envelope on audio that Sliver is generating. This envelope is triggered by receiving MIDI note on information. MIDI ADSR is now off by default when opening Sliver. When you turn MIDI ADSR on it will display a status message while on. This change is to avoid confusion while MIDI ADSR is on and not receiving MIDI data, it appears that Sliver does not produce audio.

SynthJacker is an autosampler for iOS. It automatically plays back a MIDI sequence with the notes and velocities you specify, and records the results into an audio file. It then slices the audio into individual sample files, ready to import into an iOS sampler app of your choice.

New version 0.6.1
Old version 0.5.4
Release Notes - SynthJacker now supports the selection of audio input(s) for external audio interfaces with more than one channel. If the audio interface has an even number of channels, they are grouped into stereo pairs. Single channels may be selected individually. Recordings from an external source are stereo or mono depending on your input selection. - Internal recordings from instrument Audio Units are always stereo 44.1 kHz. - The SFZ file generated by SynthJacker now contains velocity information for the sample regions. - SynthJacker now generates a standard MIDI file of the selected sequence as a side product of the recording. - Some instrument Audio Units showed a blank view. This has been fixed. - The virtual keyboard no longer obscures the instrument view. - You can create a copy of any sequence by swiping to the left in the master list and tapping Duplicate.
