The is an emulation of the ARP Axxe synthesiser, single oscillator, noise,
mixer, filter and envelope generator fully emulated in software with
modulation. The app has an integrated step sequencer and supports pressure
sensitive touch screens, X/Y accelerometer for pitch and mod wheel, multitouch
and zooming interface facilities, output recording including to Ringtones.

The original was a monophonic instrument however the emulator can operate as a
duophonic or even polyphonic synth via multitouch when it is enabled. The
interface has options for fat-finger, analogue filters and rich oscillators
however these will consume extra CPU cycles. The interface also has a full
piano keyboard setting.

Interface zooming can be done either with the trackball (Nexus/HTC have them)
or enable multitouch via the menu then tap the screen with two fingers at the
same time - this will zoom the interface in/out. If you tap with two fingers
but keep them held you can move the screen around. This kind of helps out with
the dense graphics.

Patches are saved on the SD card along with factory sounds, there is an export
and import option to exchange patches.

The emulator will, per default, attempt to run with a set of options that will
give reasonable quality and the lowest possible latency/lag. The quality of
the audio can be tuned with the menu options however the lowest possible
latency for pretty much all Android devices is currently 42ms, on my HTC
Desire it is 70ms. If you understand what this means then the value might seem
quite high but the app is still a lot of fun.

Tested on HTC Desire/2.2, Emulator hires and lowres. The Axxe is one of a
family of emulators.
