## Featured reviews

- **4★ · Great app needs au3 support · January 24, 2024** — So I’m very glad that Korg has kept up so many apps for so long, but I feel they are kind of behind with the importatnt stuff. By that I am am mainly talking about au3 support. Inter app audio is just not good enough, it crashes, states do not save, poor cpu handling…. Really at this point inter app audio is an afterthought, I never use inter app audio at this point. I bought this app in 2024 even though I know there is no au3 support, but I’m hoping that korg sees that there are users that are willing to buy more with au3 in mind. I have most of the korg apps but there are 2 more I have not purchased for the same reason. It’s a real shame, this app is great, no other significant complaints. I would use this a lot if it supported au3. I’ll be crossing my fingers.
- **5★ · Underrated synth · April 29, 2018** — I’m really confused as to why this has such a low score, not only is this a 1-1 port in terms of sonic quality compared to the VST but the devs also crafted a gorgeous, totally custom UI for iOS to help edit patches and navigate modulation options. It’s also worth mentioning that unlike the lauded Odyssey, the Wavestation synth is an original Korg product whose design has always been digital, thus you are getting essentially the same product people payed lotsa $$ for in the 90’s. No it’s not the same as programming the subtractive synth, but it’s meant to be a unique way of combining/layering preset synth samples over time. Complaints that the WS presets are dated is understandable but since you can edit each sample/layer’s level, pitch,asdr,lfo mod, built in fx and more, I don’t see what’s got people convinced that this is a Seinfeld music machine only. Take some time to read the manual and expand yr mind past Moog clones.
- **5★ · AUV3 Support for iWAVESTATION is Long Overdue—Please, Korg, Listen to Your Users! · January 24, 2025** — I cannot overstate how much I appreciate its incredible sound design capabilities and the unique joy it brings to my workflow. However, it’s baffling and frustrating that in 2025, this otherwise stellar app still lacks AUV3 support. It feels like a glaring omission, especially when so many of us in the community have repeatedly requested this feature in reviews, forums, and direct feedback. AUV3 is no longer a luxury—it’s the industry standard for integrating apps into modern DAWs. Without it, the iWAVESTATION feels isolated, a gem locked away in a standalone silo that makes seamless workflows unnecessarily difficult. As someone who relies on apps like this, the inability to use iWAVESTATION as an AUV3 plugin forces compromises that detract from its potential. It’s particularly frustrating when so many of your other apps already support AUV3. I understand that development resources are limited, and adding AUV3 support might not be a simple task. But consider the sheer number of users who would not only appreciate this feature but also actively promote and use iWAVESTATION even more if it were implemented. Your community is passionate and dedicated to Korg’s legacy—this is clear from the continued outpouring of requests for this feature. Korg, please don’t let this app fall behind in an ecosystem that is moving forward. The lack of AUV3 is no longer just an inconvenience—it’s a major roadblock for your most loyal users. I implore you to listen to the consistent feedback and prioritize this feature in your updates. The potential for iWAVESTATION to shine as part of an integrated workflow is too great to ignore.

## About

Creating sounds with time-varying timbre, on your mobile device.
KORG iWAVESTATION - A wave sequence synthesizer for iOS.

The WAVESTATION synthesizer went on sale in 1990. This instrument featured an advanced vector synthesis system which created new sounds by combining and connecting multiple waveforms; it provided a mix/morphing function that let you use a joystick to change the balance of four oscillators, and a distinctive wave sequence function that allowed you to place waveforms in a desired sequence to create sequence patterns. To this day, it continues to be considered a legendary and still-unique instrument.

Now in 2016, the WAVESTATION has been reborn as "KORG iWAVESTATION," an app for iPad/iPhone. In addition to completely reproducing the programs, it also features a renewed design that lets everyone experience the stupendous sound-shaping potential of the WAVESTATION. It features touch-based operation that's distinctive of iOS, in conjunction with a new graphic interface that allows you to visualize and edit the time-varying timbral changes that are distinctive of the WAVESTATION.

[ Features ]

- A faithful reproduction of the original WAVESTATION sound: In addition to providing the sounds from all PCM memories of the WAVESTATION, the new iWAVESTATION also reproduces in software every detail of the parameters, based on an analysis of the original hardware circuit diagram.

- A new wave sequence view that can be graphically controlled: The iWAVESTATION, we advance another step with a graphical user interface that takes advantage of the touch operations that are a characteristic of iOS. Even more than ever, we've updated the screen design with an emphasis on creating sequences.

- 1,500 sounds, more than 700 waveforms, 55 effects, and a powerful random sequence engine: This new instrument includes a stupendous number of presets and waveforms, covering all models of the series. iWAVESTATION also provides a new random sequence function which will give you different perspectives to inspire new sounds.

- Use with KORG Gadget and AUv3 for song production: iWAVESTATION can be used in conjunction with the "KORG Gadget" music production DAW app that has won numerous awards around the world. If both apps are installed, it can be used as the "Milpitas" gadget inside the KORG Gadget app. And also supports AUv3, so it can also be used as a sound module for Logic Pro and GarageBand. With a convenient and richly varied set of sounds, iWAVESTATION can be the foundation for either of these music production environments.
