GeoShred Play

GeoShred Play Version 7

With In-App Purchases for GeoSWAM and Naada instruments on devices running iOS 13 or later.

With GeoShred Play, everyone can shred.

Play with confidence on GeoShred’s innovative diatonic playing surface, where every key can fit the scale. Slide your finger in any direction and let the music flow with expressive vibrato, seamless fretless playing, and GeoShred’s groundbreaking intelligent pitch rounding.

GeoShred Play is the play-only version of the award-winning GeoShred musical instrument for iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch. It is a great way to get started with GeoShred, giving you access to the expressive GeoShred performance surface and the ability to play GeoShred Pro presets.

GeoShred Play can also be upgraded** to the functionality of GeoShred Pro, adding powerful features including preset editing, AUv3 plug-in support, MIDI/MPE, and setlist editing. GeoSWAM and Naada instruments are also available as In-App Purchases.

GeoShred’s expressive performance surface with “almost magic” pitch-rounding algorithms is coupled with physics-based models of musical instruments. It is a fusion of Jordan Rudess’ performance concepts and moForte’s powerful modeled guitar and effects technology, based on the physical modeling research of Dr. Julius O. Smith III of Stanford/CCRMA.
