Ohms Terrain

Ohms Terrain is a native iPad granular sampler and deterministic Markov sequencer. Import a sample and its real waveform becomes an immersive, playable terrain processed entirely on-device.

PLAY THE TERRAIN

• Fixed slice-orbs are the actual Markov nodes; weighted arcs connect those exact nodes.

• Create, drag, pinch, throw, and lock up to eight independent grain-cloud halos.

• Follow each real sequencer hop with the transition firefly.

• Start instantly with three original bundled loops: Demo Loop, Drone, and Pulse.

SHAPE AND PERFORM

• Edit up to 16 slice markers, then play with Slicer, Looper, Tape, and Keys touch modes.

• Apply reverse, stutter, speed, and scratch warp slots.

• Play from a hardware keyboard: Space runs the Terrain, R reweaves, N adds a cloud, Option–Arrow nudges the selected cloud, and 1–8 select clouds.

• Use pitch-preserving WSOLA from 0.5×–2× or Drone Horizon from 4×–32×, with Drone output capped at three minutes.

• Add filter, delay, and reverb.

MAKE CHANCE REPEATABLE

• Shape weights with the Markov map and step sequencer.

• Use a fixed deterministic seed; Reweave randomizes the map without pretending to change that seed.

• Snapshots and motion loops last only for the current run; captured takes export as durable MIDI or WAV files.

• Follow internal, MIDI, or AUv3 host tempo.

CAPTURE LOCALLY

Optional standalone microphone recording and sound-on-sound overdub are user-started, visibly active, and remain on-device.

INCLUDED AUv3 INSTRUMENT

The embedded AUv3 supports up to four clouds in compatible iPad hosts. It generates audio, accepts no host audio input, and has no microphone path.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Ohms Terrain has no accounts, ads, analytics, tracking, telemetry, or cloud audio processing.
