What is Tomofon? Description of Tomofon

This unique virtual instrument introduces a new “Audio Model” format, capable of containing thousands of waves extracted from ordinary audio files. These waves - and how they’re structured - lays the ground for how Tomofon generates audio, resulting in a highly flexible and instantly expressive instrument. On one hand it can sound very organic, even lifelike, and on the other, like something out of this world. Whether you want to play around with the Audio Model Starter Pack (instruments & voices) and factory presets, or import your own audio to shape your own unique soundscapes – it is fair to say that you are in for a creative journey.

How does it work?

Tomofon converts audio files into a large set of oscillating waves, which are then mapped into pitch zones where each wave represents one layer (a bit similar to how a sampler structures different velocity zones). The main difference is that since each zone is populated with waves instead of ordinary samples, the synth engine can morph between them (both layers and zones). This makes all transitions between zones and layers continuous and seamless.

Create and share your own unique sounds

A significant feature of this plug-in is that users can import their own audio files and create new and unique Audio Models. Ordinary audio files (preferably with monophonic content) can easily be imported and distributed into different pitch zones over the keyboard range, either automatically or manually. Doing an automatic import is basically a one-click process which instantly results in a proper playable Audio Model. A manual import gives the user full control of which waves should end up in which pitch zone. Last but not least you can easily share your own created Audio Models with others.

Tomofon comes pre-loaded with a pack of 124 Audio Models based on high quality audio recordings of multiple expressions. These models includes several instruments like strings, vocals, brass, woodwind, guitars and more. Along with these models there are over 180 presets to get you going right away. From there on you can venture further and start creating Audio Models based on your own audio files and experiment on the types of sounds they can grow to be.

Features
- Wide selection of factory presets and Audio Models

Tomofon Pros

Fantastic potential for expressive use. Monosynth Expression needs a little tidying upI can not for the life of me find where to set a patch to play monophonically with legato mono-synth style of playing without the envelope releasing when any note is released on the keyboard. Usually you should be able to maintain a series of legato notes as long as one key is still depressed on the keyboard. So the expressive monosynth capability is a little curtailed. It would be great to have it respond like most expressive monosynths when in mono legato mode..MicrosandwichVersion: 1.1.1

Innovative, freaky but delicious! 🦋I’ve really fallen in love with Klevgrand as they produce some really out there products that are unique and off the grid, and Tomofon is really no exception! I was immediately intrigued after hearing various demonstrations of its weirding ways, as it’s seemingly capable of producing sounds ranging from beautiful angelic overtones to eerie macabre shrills and groans (and everything in between)! Tomofon has bewitching qualities as through its audio model creation (re-synthesis via wavetables) sampled sounds take on ‘additive’ like qualities gaining a malleable ‘elasticity’ so they can be manipulated in weird and wonderful ways. Further the engine can be driven by your own samples, so there’s lots of possibilities to produce a wide gamut of sonic nuances, textures, ambience, etc. V.1 was already innovative and incredible sounding on release but now supports MPE and multimode filters too, which provide endless possibilities for creative expression - very cool!.IOS-KunoichiVersion: 1.2.0

Tomofon Cons

Rubber chicken synthYou can take almost any sound and make it sound like a high pitched squeezing a rubber chicken sound. 3 stars cause im impressed that it'll do that with ANY sample. And $15 for sample packs?? That's a whole other USEFUL app at that price..FragilefrenchangelVersion: 1.2.0
