Finger Bender v1.1

I don't know about you, but I know that I've wanted to use the Pitch wheel of one of my Synthesizers as a keyboard quite a few times...
Even today this still happens to me with my Apps because not all of them have a Ribbon.

Finger Bender can do that!
And even more without having anything to program....
I love it....

Finger Bender has 16 bender presets. Each preset has 2 sides: A and B. Tap the preset button to cycle through A and B.
Flip Flop A unique quantized bend that alternates pitches up and down.
  1. Random A random quantized bend perfect for sample and hold effects or subtle randomness.
  2. Quantize 3 to 8 These are linear bends quantized in 3 to 8 steps. Great for microtonal explorations and glitchy bends. Presets B add smooth transitions between steps.
  3. Vibrato A exponential bend perfect for subtle to extreme vibrato.
  4. Glissando A linear bend much like a pitch wheel on a synthesizer.
  5. Major Scale A bend quantized to a major scale if the bend range of the instrument is ±12 semitones.
  6. Minor Scale A bend quantized to a minor scale if the bend range of the instrument is ±12 semitones.
  7. 12 Semitones A bend quantized to 12 semitones if the bend range of the instrument is ±12 semitones.
  8. Dirty A bend that has "dirt".
  9. Inverse. An inverse bend axis
  10. Broken A broken unpredictable bend

It comes also with:
  • 6 knobs to set the width of the pitch bender: 20%, 40%, 80%, 100%, 120%, 140% or 160%. A shorter width allows faster bends with a shorter swipe. A longer width allows more degree of precision.
  • A MIDI Modulation control. Swipe up or down in the bottom half of the bender to change the value of he modulation.
  • A latch Pitch button: on or off. When on, the last pitch you swiped to after releasing your finger on the bender will remain. Otherwise, the pitch will snap back to the starting frequency. To avoid the pitch snapping back, quickly swipe your finger back to the starting bend point before lifting your finger. Tap 3 fingers on the bender to toggle the latch function.
  • Guide points are drawn on the bender to help you bend to the "in between" pitches. Select 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 12 or 24 guide points. If the pitch bend range of your instrument match the number of guide points then the spacing between each point will be a semitone. A semitone is the distance between each piano key. With 12 or 24 semitones, you can play your instrument like an Ondes Martinot or a Theremin. Tap 0 to turn guide points off. Guide points are only used with presets indicated with a circle under the button label. Also, guide points are not available in some skins.
  • 5 SKINS to cycle through these bender interfaces: The Box | Ondes Martinot | Model 1150 | Clara's Theremin | Blue Vinyl. Each skin provides different visual interactions. The letter T indicates tones and the letter S is for semitones. (Check out the video demo)
A status bar at the top of the screen displays the state of the app and a description of the last button selected.
Tap the status bar to show or hide the settings. When the settings are hidden, the bender will go fullscreen (almost).

A note:
Begin swiping anywhere on the bender. The starting touch point is always the "zero" mark.

To conclude:
It's simple, easy to use, can add magic to your synthesizer presets, even effects...
A AUv3 version will be really really awesome!
A Killer App!

    Because I can read everywhere a Policy...

    1. this blog is man by a human for humans
    2. I can make some mistakes (because I am a human)
    3. Nothing will deleted or removed from this blog. For my mistakes or angers, apologies and corrections will be added if needed.
    4. You can see everyday on a banner in the What's hot today post the Apps offered by a developer...
    5. If you participate to the Sunday Contest, you will have to trust in me... But, if you like you can asked me the email list of the readers who participate to a Contest included Time and Date. I will send it to you...
    6. My rating... The first criterion is the App Store description. The last one is my taste and this is totally subjective... Each post come with a tutorial showing you all the knobs, menu, faders,.... Everything that you will be able to find in an App... I hope that this will help to make your own rating.
    7. If I really don't like an App, don't understand it or found too many bugs, I send an email to the developer.... I asked him if the App will be update shortly, I also offer my services as Beta Tester.... Most of the time, I will wait for a future update... Developers are humans too!...
    8. All comments will be publish here. For insults, offenses or very bad mood, the only restriction is that you have to sign with your real name...
    9. I don't know... Peraphs that I will add something later.
