Elastic OSC, Oliver Greschke's Plaits-based polysynth, landed on Mac and Windows on May 6, 2026 — roughly a year after its iOS debut, where it earned a spot on multiple "Best of 2025" lists and built a dedicated following among mobile synthesis enthusiasts.
Forget simple ports. Oliver Greschke’s Elastic OSC takes the best of Mutable Instruments Plaits and adds 8-voice polyphony, "elastic" X/Y automation, and full DX7 bank compatibility. From granular clouds to gritty FM, it’s a studio’s worth of synthesis in your pocket. Is this the most essential iOS synth of the last two years?
