Here's the official description:

SIDPAD is a flexible 8bit style synthesizer offering many features:

-3 Voice Synthesizer
Over 40 controllable parameters to create a wide range of 8 bit chip-tune sounds. All knobs midi controllable!

-Multimode Filter
includes Type, Cutoff, Resonance and customizable Cutoff Envelope

-Flexible Modulation
Hand draw up to 4 graphs and assign them to the synth’s parameters to add movement and expression to your sound

-Wavetable Editor
The 16 step wavetable editor is a great tool to set up sound effects and arpeggiated melodies.
You can sequence notes and waveform changes either as one shot or in a loop and vary the speed

I made this app for you! If problems, please contact me prior to leaving reviews, I’m happy to help with those and would also be delighted to implement new features for you!

Kinda cool, but the 15 minutes limitation doesn't let one really try it as much as one could.
Also in-app purchases are evil, allow for people to buy it straight from the store!

keep up the good work.

I wonder if You could add an "export to C64" feature. I don't know what do they use there - *.sid files?
Anyway, it might be a good idea.

Hi Folks,
Thanks for the kind words, I think the app store has been glitching because I never requested for SIDPAD to be unavailable anywhere GRRR

It seems that they changed the link too!

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/sidpad/ … 1&mt=8

I'll try to get a video demo recorded soon but a user kindly submitted this on youtube:

as for the "export to C64" feature, I actually have something more exciting in the works but it's a bit of a secret...
hint=hardware extension of the app involving a certain chip

I'm not a fan of in-app purchases either but it's the only way I can get a little exposure, sorry about that!
Hope you enjoy SIDPAD! I might consider an android port if the IOS version does well enough.
Cheers

Alex

Well, what I had in mind is, that it might be a possibility more people could get such application to make music for C64 games and demos.
And C=264 too, for that matter, as we use external Sid-Cards on C=264.
Ah well, just a though anyway.
