A classic is reborn! With its introduction nearly a decade ago, Magellan pushed the boundaries of iOS technology and quickly took its place among the platform’s most popular synths. Continuing this pedigree, Yonac’s flagship Magellan Synthesizer 2 is a new alchemy of pristine sounds, innovative features, and devotion to user friendliness — all the same preserving the wicked soul of the original. Cutting-edge synthesis technology, punchier tones, warmer filters, greater modulation options, AUv3, MPE, brand-new presets: these are just a few of Magellan’s features for a whole new era. SIGNAL GENERATORS Magellan’s beating heart is its three realtime virtual-analog oscillators: with their pulse width and blend parameters, the first two connect to a unique Timbre module to derive many additional waveforms. A special Oscillator Unison stage activates additional “secret” oscillators to supply up to 24 oscillators per voice — perfect for supersaws, or true chorus/flange effects obtained right at the synthesis stage. A fully configurable Maximizer module helps create even bigger stereophonic sounds by activating up to 120 simultaneous oscillators per voice. FM A powerful yet intuitive FM module gives life to Magellan’s unique hybrid design. With its very own ADSR and variable contour generator (with 3 different envelope shapes), it works as an additional sound source and transforms Magellan 2 into a very capable frequency modulation synthesizer. Combined with other oscillators and modulation features, it generates strong multi-layered textures impossible via subtractive synthesis alone. FILTERS Two independent filter banks, 11 different filters, series/parallel selection with variable balance — these newfangled filters incorporate nonlinearities and analog-derived quirks that impart them hefty servings of aural “sugar”. The addition of “FAT” controls helps give added gravitas and harmonic content. Dedicated ADSRs (with extra long maxes) feature A/B/C contour generators for totally different playing characteristics. MODULATION Twin LFOs, modulation envelope, as well as direct control: the backbone of a powerful and versatile modulation system that can take 16 simultaneous targets, each with its own variable amount. In addition, each LFO/Envelope target can be assigned a secondary control (including via MIDI) to dynamically vary or even “piggyback” its modulating signal. The inbuilt XY-pad can hit any pair of 140 parameters for realtime control, while the “EZ Velocity” module helps quickly dial in the right touch for amplitude, filters & FM. SPAWN2 Second generation Yonac SPAWN unlocks the power of A.I. to help create countless original presets. Powered with an Expert mode, three different algorithms, and configurable machine autonomy down to module level, you can produce anything from subtle variations on a theme to wild new sounds with unrivaled “hit rate” — all at the touch of a button. AUv3, MIDI & MPE The ultra-efficient synth engine and flexible user interface are specially designed so that you can run many Magellans simultaneously in your favorite AUv3 DAW or Mixer. Along with massively featured MIDI I/O (complete with MIDI learn/recall, program changes, et al.), Magellan 2 is also MPE compatible with full polyphonic pitch control. Aftertouch and even CC74 are assignable through the mod matrices — and the new onscreen MagTOUCH MPE controller provides voice-wise expression not only within Magellan, but to other MPE apps/devices and inside compatible DAWs as well. ...AND MORE Analog-inspired 32x4 step/pattern sequencer with gate, velocity and skip; ChordMaker with note matrix that maps one key into a chord; powerful, easy-to-use arp with live & program modes; FX rack featuring 10 stereo units and configurable signal flow; 360+ factory presets, with a bank custom produced by Sunsine Audio; Ableton Link, YPAT3 preset management, patch translator, app recorder are just a few more of Magellan Synthesizer 2 features.}

Problem 1 - the Magellan-2 DOES access the iPad microphone and mixes the signal with the music. Why? This is a fault and should be fixed. It's on an iPad. ------- Problem 2 - the Magellan does not function well with an external bluetooth device. Many other synths do but Magellan does't work well with a Korg MIDI keyboard. The device shows "connected" in the settings but the Magellan crashes repeatedly. Why? This should be also addressed. ------- I have already left a review regarding this but no reply so far. The developers have only a facebook contact and it's useless for those who don't do facebook. An email address would be much more preferable. ------- thanks, 👩🏻‍🎤 👩🏻‍🎤 👩🏻‍🎤

Why does Magellan-2 grab the microphone-access of the iPad? In the permissions it is not even listed, therefore cannot disable it. It must be a fault. Can anything be done about this? -----

it seems Magellan has access to the iPad microphone every time i use it. Is it possible? I did NOT grant access in SETTINGS, so how do i turn this off? -----

Very nice synth! But I got a technical issue. When I switch on PurpleBoost the synth stops making sound. I have to restart the app to get sound again.

I love Mag2…sounds so growly and thick. I’m using it for everything right now. A full professionally useable synth. I am so glad I bought it and upgraded from the original Magellan. Yonac’s apps are so cool and I’m looking forward to more. This synth is AWESOME. Do yourself a favor and buy them. Yonac Synths RULE! - Grey F♾️l

This is one of my favorite synth apps on iOS and I have almost all of them. Heck, there are some things about this synth that I prefer to real analog synths that I own too. Very versatile, easy to get around, great sounding synth. Not in love with the effects section but I never am in any synth and prefer to use desktop plugins for effects.

Mir gefällt allerdings die GUI nicht, Potis mit Anordnung sind gut, den Font beim Namen finde ich überhaupt nicht gut, ist aber nebensächlich. Aber die Soundauswahl auf riesigen schwarzen Kacheln mit roter!! Schrift wäre nicht nötig gewesen. Aber der Synth selbst ist prima, deshalb die 5 Inzwischen gebe ich allen Synths, die keine +/- Option für nächsten/vorherigen Sound haben grundsätzlich nicht die volle Punktzahl. Aber seis drum. Ich fände eine Anpassung für M-Macs eine prima Sache, scheint kein Hexenwerk zu sein. Dann könnte ich einen Logic für iPad Song im Mac beenden. Geht Magellan 2 überhaupt auf Logic 4 iPad? Du siehst, die Soundauswahl führt dazu, dass ich es nur noch selten einsetze.

Still my favourite workhorse analog synth. With the amount of oscillator options, envelopes, filters & fx available it has all to get a desired sound. Everything in the synth sounds great, apart maybe from the noise generator which seems unable to deliver a rich bright white noise.
