Thank you for purchasing AtomoSynth's iAbyssal: Virtual analog oscillator / noise machine.
iAbyssal software synthesizer is based on the AtomoSynth Abyssal, an analog noise
machine featuring a big photocell allowing the user to play in a similar fashion to a photo
theremin.
Uses the frontal camera of the device for emulating a photocell so it can be played by
varying the amount of light that the frontal camera receives.
Features one oscillator, one white noise generator, two low frequency oscillators, and one
low / high pass filter.
Factory and User patch memory.
Photocell (frontal camera) calibration functionality for adjusting its sensitivity to different
environmental light conditions.
Inter-app-audio and Audiobus support as a generator unit.
1. Tap the iAbyssal icon on your iOS device home screen, the app will boot (it may take a
second or two).
2. Once loaded, and for the first and only time, you'll be prompted to accept the use of your
device camera. This allows the photocell emulation to work using your frontal camera only.
If you decline this permission you may re-enable it in your device settings screen.
3. Set your iOS device volume to level that you find comfortable.
4. The synth will start producing sound, this will change by varying the amount of light that the
frontal camera receives using, for example, your hand.
