Since its initial release in 2005, FabFilter Twin has gained recognition for its exceptional filter quality and oscillator sound. FabFilter Twin 3 represents a significant advancement over its predecessors in every aspect. It boasts a complete redesign of the interface and workflow, enhanced oscillators and filters, an extensively upgraded modulation system, a new FX section, and more. This synth offers remarkable sonic versatility, intuitive operation, and an impressively ‘analog’ sound, making it an ideal tool for crafting a wide range of synth sounds including basses, leads, pads, plucks, drums, effects, and beyond.

The Twin 3 application provides the option to play using the on-screen keyboard or a MIDI keyboard connected to your iPad. For plugin use, an AUv3-compatible host app such as Auria, AUM, or Cubasis is required. Twin 3 can be accessed in the list of Audio Unit extensions for instrument plugins within the host app.
