With a 128-step pattern sequencer and graphical editor with flexible performance controls—all integrated for standalone MPC, MPC Desktop, and DAW users—it fits effortlessly into any workflow.

Features include:
- Back to Basics: Sleek Design, Simple Controls – Music production tools are meant to inspire—not add complexity to your creative process. Iona was carefully designed with your MPC or DAW workflow in mind. It has an intuitive front panel display with familiar controls and simple navigation so that you can focus on creating.
- Dynamic Pulse-Width Modulation – Add complexity and character to your sound with robust pulse-width modulation via LFO, envelope, or manual slider. For deeper modulation exploration, Iona’s BPM-syncable LFO has nine selectable waveshapes.

- Meticulously Modeled Sound Sources – At the heart of Iona is a faithfully modeled sound architecture featuring Pulse Width wave, Sawtooth, Sub, and Noise sources, plus original VCO pitch range and modulation controls. This detail delivers rich, unmistakably vintage tones—from thick, punchy basses to expressive leads.
- Step Sequencer and Arpeggiator – Add snappy and evolving patterns with a 128-step sequencer that maintains the original instrument’s feel while adding transpose/shirt and a graphical editor. Iona’s built-in arpeggiator sparks instant rhythmic inspiration.

The instrument’s effects section puts a bit-crushing Lo-Fi, robust Delay, spacious Reverb, and EQ controls front and center on your screen for on-the-fly adjustments.
