Eats up battery when off

Try using this app and then close it and watch how fast your battery drains. Check your battery in settings. Nave will be at the top of the list consuming 80-90% of your battery. This has been going on for years and Waldorf doesn’t care. That’s why they get a 1 star from me.

Dated

Should stay at the sale price and would love to at least see some updates and new patches.Pros: Beautiful interface (standalone), fully featured as a standalone synth with recorder. Very precise and tunable sound.Cons: Hasn’t been updated in years, No auv3, Most patches rely heavily on internal fx, eq, and compressor. Nice list of patch designers but the sounds are aging. Patch navigation system should have a way to favorite presets andvisualize all banks by category. No MPE.

Doesn’t work after iPadOS update

App simply crashes now. I know it hasn’t been updated in quite some time but hopefully this can be addressed.

Amazing wavetable synth, but eats battery and has a memory leak

Amazing sounds, great interface and arpeggiator. Unfortunately, still no AU plugin version, but I can live with that for now. The biggest issue is that it eats battery like a hog and if you forget to kill the app explicitly AND reboot your device, you’ll find your iPad out of battery within a few hours, even if it’s not being used / the screen is off. This is probably due to background audio, but it’s definitely annoying and should be fixed.I see the developer has responded with the suggestion of disabling background audio. This still doesn’t explain why the battery goes dead after force-killing the app. There are plenty of other iOS apps with this “background audio” option which don’t continue eating battery after you force close them... and they don’t require you to reboot your iPad. I don’t want to turn this into an advertisement for other apps, but please: fix this properly.

Killer App

Nothing but praise for this app. I wish I could say the same for Attack, which is taking forever to get fixed.

Desert island app

If you only buy one iOS synth, buy this one.Easily my favorite wavetable synth and is just as good as most hardware you find. Very underrated and not much info out there but it inspires me every time I use it. Worth every penny.

Super-Obvious Mistake, Waldorf!

IMHO: Nave is the best iOS synthesizer currently available as of November 2015 - it easily sounds as good as a lot of high-end soft synths that run exclusively on our pc/Mac's -Having said that: Waldorf? Are you listening? Ok: I run Nave exclusively on both an Air 1 & 2 -Why is the polyphony HALF on my Air 2 versus my Air 1?Needless to say, I've done a fair amount of testing to confirm this: the Air 1 gives you 24 voices, whereas the Air 2 halves that to 12 -iOS 9.1 using a Tascam iur2 interface (yes it is compatible, using the iPads Lightning port and externally powering the box with a configured y cable and usb power pack)

The magic carpet synth

If this thing was packed in a metal box with knobs, you would pay BANK for something as special as Nave. Wonderful sounding, bursting with creative potential. There's a lot to take in but after a few hours you will be creating crazy, lush, chaotic, brutal, hypnotic works of art. There are some stability bugs I've noticed using my 3rd gen iPad on iOS 7.0 so save often. Pulling up menu items can seem unresponsive at times. Bugs I'm sure will be resolved in future updates. This synth sits right up there with Animoog, Thor, and Magellan. Thank you Waldorf!!!! Update 2016- still blows me away that this app completely destroys hardware synths. Amazing. Keep up the good work Waldorf!

Very Best

Nave is hands down the best sounding, most diverse synth app on the market. While the wavetable is a bit of a learning curve (pun definitely intended), it is worth it to get familiar with it, as their pretty much no end to what you can create with it. This synth is absolutely unreal.

Add Basic Sequencer ?

Update please for ios11.iPad Pro and gettting cracking noises on sustained chords——I agree with most positive reviews, it's great.HOWEVER, can we please add at least a basic sequencer for recording. I have to play entire tracks in real time all the way through and if one measure is off timing, I have to re-record over ...and over. Please add a sequencer with quantization.... Please. ...And soon, I have work to do. Professional tools need profession features. Thank you Running on an updated iPad Pro, using professionally

Description

Nave - next generation Wavetable Synthesis Nave is Waldorf’s first synthesizer App development – created by chief engineer and 
director Stefan Stenzel, NLog mastermind Rolf Wöhrmann and Design Guru Axel Hartmann. The Nave sound engine includes two novel Wavetable oscillators, leaving every previous attempt in wavetable synthesis far behind. The spectrum of a sound can be transposed independently of its pitch.

The waves are being rendered periodically to noisy. Especially sounds with an accent on formants can be reproduced easily, which made us integrate a speech synthesizer for the easy creation of wavetables. The clearly structured UI invites both beginners and advanced users to experiment, and the large display of 
the iPad makes Wavetable creation and editing a blast. Besides Speech Synthesis, Wavetables can also be made by analysing audio files. Further stretching, rotating and shifting in spectral domain allows Wavetables to be further refined or distorted. All factory Wavetables from Microwave, Wave and Blofeld are included, complemented by new ones that make extensive useof the enhanced possibilities. In addition to the Wavetable Oscillators, Nave offers an oscillator module featuring the novel Überwave that can fatten your sound by up to eight detuned oscillators. The filter offers the familiar outstanding Waldorf sound, featuring lowpass, bandpass and highpass with either 12dB or 24dB slope. The Drive section offers different characteristics, and it can be positioned in the signal path: before or after the filter, or as a summing overdrive before or after the equalizer - for those who prefer harsh screaming sounds over delicate Wavetable sweeps. An extended modulation matrix and diverse real time control functionality is waiting for animating Nave sounds in any desired direction. Besides the classic virtual chromatic keyboard, Nave can be played with the “Blades” that allow for dynamic triggering of polyphonic modulation by sliding the fingers in x or y direction. The 4-track recorder can be used to build your own Nave songs or to simply sketch your music, inspired by the sounds of Nave.
