Key Idea
Transfigure isn’t just another multi-effect. It’s a sound design tool that creates something entirely new and unrelated to your original audio.
With powerful modulation and an XY pad, you can intuitively shape sound in truly creative ways.
Subtle tweaks. Glitchy mayhem. Transfigure is your playground.
Spectral
The spectral engine lets you manipulate your sound in the frequency domain, unlocking a variety of unique effects. By isolating specific frequencies, you can freeze your sound in place. Delaying different frequency bands individually produces stunning, evolving results.
Well-crafted algorithms allow you to adjust particular frequency ranges with precision, opening up wide-ranging sound design possibilities. Most algorithms come with detailed control options.
Need to place your 100 Hz kick drum just right in the stereo field? We’ve got you covered. From delicate textures to alien chaos, unleash your sonic imagination.
Resynthesis
The resynthesis engine analyzes your input signal to detect which pitches are present. It then uses this information to generate new audio with its own internal sound engine. The results can be close to the original or completely transformed.
Combined with our powerful modulation system and easy-to-use XY pad, you can create highly dynamic and individual sounds. As with the spectral engine, there’s plenty of depth for fine-tuning. Let some notes have a release tail while others get modulated. Everything is possible.
Generic Effects
Transfigure includes two general-purpose effect slots.
Delay and reverb let you shape space and depth. The phaser provides modulation options, while the filter with its drive section gives you a classic tool for shaping tone. Capture and looper effects offer the glitch capabilities Sugar Bytes is known for.
Since all parameters are tied to the modulation section, you can create vibrant and dynamic results. When connected to the XY pad, multiple parameters become accessible at once, making it easy to build your very own signature sound.

Reviews
”transfigure is a monster of an app – part multi-effects processor and part loop mangler – and, in short, it’s brilliant. If you produce electronic or experimental music you are going to find this very difficult to resist.”
Music App Blog
”transfigure is an amazingly powerful audio mangling tool for the iPad with a good depth of editing features and some clever I/O options.”
Ask Audio
”transfigure becomes genuinely useful in serious mobile production and sound design projects, deployed as an AudioBus Filter or Sender.”

”transfigure is immediately satisfying and crazy fun. This is only the beginning though. Beyond the easy start, you can dig way further into each of the effects to make some very cool sounds. Welcome to the modulation candy store.”
