Description
Create and play your own custom synthesizers and instruments!
Inspired by the Korg Kaossilator and Moog synthesizers, Saucillator transforms mobile devices into a platform for creating and playing digital synthesizers. Users use the touchscreen to manipulate oscillators and effects, and can also do live-looping and recording. Our goal is to be beginner friendly while at the same time offering all the deep, complex features traditional synth users love.
A multi track looper and beat generator are available to create synth loops and synchronize a beat/click track alongside it. Loops can be modified, toggled, and added as you're playing.
Users are able to play custom modular synthesizers using the x-y axes of the touchscreen. The x-axis corresponds to amplitude (volume) and the y-axis corresponds to frequency (pitch). Playback can also be looped, recorded, and EQed using a Parametric EQ.
On top of performing, users are able to create their own custom synthesizers, which consist of a custom timbre and user-defined effects. A variety of timbres are included: Sine, Square, Saw, Pulse, Noise, Theremin, "Singing Saw", "Electric Eel", and "Starslide" (among many more). These, as well as any user-created synths, can be mixed and matched at different harmonics, amplitudes, and phases to create custom sounds.
Each synth has customizable fx parameters as well, including Envelope (ADSR - attack & release), Vibrato LFO (rate & depth), Tremolo, Delay, Distortion, Parametric EQ, and Note Lag (Portamento). We also include a Filter (low-pass, highpass, bandpass) that can be modulated using an Envelope or LFO.
Custom synths can also be shared with the Saucillator community via an easy built-in sharing tool. Download other users' synths or upload your own, all from in app!
Other abilities: -Choose scale: Pentatonic, Major, Minor, Blues, or Chromatic (among others). -Choose the base note for the pad. -Control the grid size. -Record to disk. -Live visualization of waveforms. -Play synths with external midi controllers

Saucillator. I think it's the sauce, boss!
Recent changes: - Add ability to sync time-based effects parameters to the current BPM - Remember pad settings (e.g. scale, base note, etc) across app reboots

Fun application, I have a couple of FM Synths for my Chromebook. I like the touch interface for producing the notes, it is unique and for a non-piano player allows for creativity even for a novice. I downloaded other analog synths, but they had severe static--the sound on this synth is clean, which is true of my FM Synths as well. Todd Lindgren suggested making music this way for non-piano players as well, he designed something with a similar interface, though I do not believe it was a synth
★★★★★Robert Sanderson· Sep 4, 2025
Lots of fun, sounds great & pretty useful as a musical instrument. A reverb & maybe some other effects would be useful. It would also be useful to be able to minimize the synth's settings & use just the keyboard pad in portrait mode, and thus increase the note range. The looper is useful addition but can be tricky to use. I found it hard to record the initial loop without gaps at the start & end. To overcome this I recorded an initial blank loop of the length I wanted & then added the actual

This app is so fun. I love oscillating sounds, looping sine waves, and the ability to record. Not perfect because of pops and cracks, but fun for what is useful here.

Great when it launched 10 years ago. Now obsolete

Genuinely the worst music making app I've ever downloaded. The lag makes it unusable.
★★☆☆☆Danica B· Oct 8, 2021
I'm heartbroken. I just 'recorded' so much audio through this app. Only to get the notification AFTER the files were nowhere to be found, that the app only works with older phones. I actually almost cried. Cool
