The new free software update for Modal Electronic's CRAFTSynth turns multiple hardware units into a polyphonic synthesizer, amongst other cool things.
If this was a hack we'd be all over it... but it's better than that. This free software update for Mac, Windows, iOS and Android can transform multiple units of the very capable $99 CRAFTsynth in to a polyphonic synth. But that's not all that's changed. There's MIDI over Bluetooth and other improvements too... Here's what our friends at Modal Electronics have to say about this new update.
CraftApp has a new update for all platforms, Mac OS, Windows, iOS and Android!
