KQ MiniSynth 26

KQ MiniSynth is a powerful polyphonic modular synthesizer app for iPhone, iPad, and macOS (Apple Silicon).

Design your own custom synth patches by connecting modules in a flexible, visual environment. You can mix up to 100 modules in a patch (limited by device performance).

Features

- Zoomable patch editor: easily connect modules via tap & drag with zoom support

- 70+ built-in preset patches to explore and customize

- External & virtual MIDI support

- MIDI over Bluetooth LE (as central)

- Ableton Link integration for tempo sync across apps and devices

- Audio Unit Extension (AUv3) support, usable as plugin in host apps

Why KQ MiniSynth?

- Enjoy deep modular synthesis in your pocket

- Great for both experimental sound design and live performance

- Educational tool: learn module topology & signal flow

- Efficient implementation aimed at low latency and stable performance

Tips & Notes

- If output is too quiet, check Expression (Ctrl #11) or use “Reset” on I/O panel.

- When using as an Audio Unit, if velocity seems ignored, disable “Ignore Velocities” in settings.

- Performance depends on device — reduce polyphony or number of modules if audio drops occur.
