Moby Pixel have released Overdrive Synth, a synth with sounds processed through guitar pedals. It’s available as a FREE download with limited presets / sounds however an in-app purchase of $4.99 provides an extended preset and sound set.
What does a synthesizer sound like through an overdrive pedal? To answer this great mystery, I visited NightSound Studio to re-amp a plethora of synth tones through various classic guitar pedals. The results are now available for your ears in Overdrive Synth!
The app comes with 10 default instruments, and If you like the starting sounds, unlock the full version (+100 instruments) and become a turbo-powered crunch synth master! I’m also EXTREMELY excited to bring you the full video development story on how this app was made! If you’re curious to see what all went into making this app including the recording process, follow the behind-the-scenes link in the app! Special thanks to Nightsound Studios where the samples were recorded, AudioKit for providing the tools to build this app, the amazing open source synth community, and you for supporting indie developers.
Features include:
- Vintage Synths Re-amped Through Guitar Pedals
- 3 Keyboard Layouts (Piano, Guitar & Scaled) AUv3 & MIDI Support
- Professionally Recorded Samples

- Proudly Built With AudioKit
