ONE-LINER
Flare is a 6-voice, two-oscillator 80s brass synth for iPhone and iPad, as a standalone app and an AUv3 plugin.

ABOUT FLARE
Flare is a 6-voice analog-style polysynth for iPhone and iPad with two oscillators per voice, built for one sound first: big 80s sync brass. Bright, punchy and wide, and everything else a classic two-oscillator polysynth does.

It runs as a standalone app or as an AUv3 plugin in hosts such as GarageBand and AUM. Every parameter has its own slider or switch. Flare ships with 32 presets and loads classic 80s SysEx tone banks, so players can bring their own sounds. Three panel looks, one sound engine. Flare is made by Maxcommerce, a one-person studio in the Netherlands.

KEY FEATURES
- 6 voices, two oscillators each, with sync and cross-modulation
