Audulus 4 for macOS and iPadOS released - AUv3 Support, Multitouch, New Module Library, New Nodes, and more
After over four years of development and extensive user testing, Audulus LLC is releasing Audulus 4, an update to the modular synthesis app. Audulus 4 offers many new features, and is free to try out and play any patch. This enables sharing of patches on a greater scale.
New features include:
- Full multitouch on iPadOS: Turn on performance mode and interact with multiple controls at once. Create multitouch performance surfaces.
- Custom UI for math expressions.
- Knob colors and icons.
- New UI nodes like sliders and X-Y pads.
- Modules can now be recursively exposed. Build front-panels out of other front panels.
- Improved search experience in the module browser.
- MIDI output via a MIDI Send node.
- Pinch to zoom while dragging a connection or moving a module.
- AUv3 versions on both iPadOS and macOS.
- Canvas Node: Build custom user interfaces using the Lua programming language.
- GLSL Shader node: Make advanced shadertoy-style graphics.
Audulus Redesigned
Audulus 4 represents a massive step forward for Audulus, which required a tremendous re-working of the code. The user interface is now more pro while still being immediate and approachable.
Taylor Holliday, Audulus developer
Audulus 4 includes a rebuilt module library to showcase the new features. Users can use Eurorack-style modules from the library to have a classic modular synth patching experience.
Audulus is unique in seamlessly combining Eurorack-style patching with lower level signal graphs. You can build advanced modules in Audulus without needing to know programming languages such as C++.

Audulus 4 is available now as a free download on the Mac and iPad App Stores. Patch editing is an in-app purchase upgrade for $19.99 USD.
