Right controls lock in, and a block turns green when all of it is right. Keep guessing until the whole board is green. New to synths? Start with Learn.
The Library has every patch so far, Easy to Extreme, with new ones added now and then. Play them in any order.
Hands-on steps from one oscillator to a full patch. Each step sets up a board for you, so there's only one or two blocks to add or settings to change. Play with them, then match the target. Hints are there if you want them.
Distortion pushes the sound into clipping. The Soft style is like a hot tape machine or a tube amp: it rounds off the peaks and adds warm harmonics, so a bass growls and sits forward.
Delay repeats the sound in time with the tempo, so a short part becomes a rhythm. Feedback sets how many times it repeats.
Your turn. Add Distortion and Delay. The target is warmer and grittier, with echoes.
Each patch is a synth sound, the Target. Rebuild it by ear: change the controls on the board until your Output sounds the same, and every guess marks each control green, yellow or red. Press play on a patch to hear it, or open one to start. New to synths? Start with Learn.
Made a sound you like? Build it in the Sandbox and submit it. If it's approved, it goes in the library with your name on it.
The first patches are on the way. Check back soon.
