Virtual ANS Synthesizer v2.0
Ok. It's time for the new revolution! :)
The new Virtual ANS is out! And now it is also available for iOS, Android, Windows, Linux and OSX!
It is a software simulator of the unique Russian synthesizer ANS - photoelectronic microtonal/spectral musical instrument created by Russian engineer Evgeny Murzin from 1938 to 1958. Murzin named his invention in honour of the composer Alexander Nikolayevich Scriabin.
The instrument was used by Stanislav Kreichi, Alfred Schnittke, Edison Denisov, Sofia Gubaidulina, Edward Artemiev and other Soviet composers. You can hear the sound of the ANS in Andrei Tarkovsky's movies Solaris, The Mirror, Stalker.
While the other similar programs are just fun toys, the Virtual ANS is a full-featured professional tool which allows you to create unusual, deep, atmospheric sounds. With this app you can draw a complete piece of music, or convert sound to image (sonogram) and then make some complex sonogram modifications.
Actually the potential of the program has not been explored yet, so it (as well as PixiVisor) is more appropriate for people who are searching for something new, not afraid to experiment with sound.
Key features:

Virtual ANS album
The new album using only Virtual ANS is released:
Upon Awakening, the Architect Imagined 69 Stairwells by Fleshy Timeclock
Enjoy it!
Virtual ANS (ANS - the abbreviation for "Alexandr Nicolaevitch Skryabin", the great Russian composer) is the software simulator of the unique Russian optical synthesizer, developed by a scientist E. Mursin in the years 1937-1957.
Another good news is that i'm working on the new version of Virtual ANS right now - rewritten from scratch, much more powerful, cross-platform (Windows, Linux, OSX, Android, iOS) and optimized for real-time playing. And of course you can speed up ANS development by making a donation.
