MODELAR for the M-VAVE FM-1

MODELAR0.3 · beta

by Hirakos GitHub ↗

synthambient · dronebeta

A semi-modular drone synth played like a Kaoss Pad: four oscillators modulating each other through eight routings, and keys that move a cursor on an XY pad instead of playing notes: white keys are points, black keys gestures. ARP, a polymetric sequencer, a clock in Hz and eight generative environments.
