AudioKit Synth One is a free, open-source iOS synthesizer app built with Swift and AudioKit, featuring MIDI support, a sequencer, analog-style filters, arpeggiators, effects, and 300+ presets. It works on iPhone and iPad, supports AUv3 and Audiobus, and its source code serves as a learning resource for building synth apps.
Use cases
- play a free synthesizer on iPhone or iPad
- learn how to build an iOS synth app with AudioKit
- use an AUv3 synth plugin inside a mobile DAW
- connect a MIDI keyboard to an iOS synthesizer
- explore open-source audio DSP code in Swift
- create music with presets, arpeggiators, and effects on iOS
When to choose
- you want a full-featured free synthesizer on iOS
- you want to study or fork open-source iOS audio code
- you need an AUv3/Audiobus-compatible synth for mobile music production
When to avoid
- you need a desktop or Android synthesizer
- you need a maintained app — it has been replaced by Synth One J6
- you want a lightweight library rather than a full application
