synthétique

Sequencers, instruments, and effects.

a suite of happy accidents.

Three sequencers write the notes. Eight instruments make the sound. Five effects make it worse. Or better. Depends.

MIDI Generators
BÆNĠ
Drum sequencer

Six lanes of rhythmic patterns that build themselves from maths. Set the rules, then break them — add ghost hits, rolls, stutters, accents. Point it at any drum machine and watch patterns emerge you’d never program by hand.

RÆMBL
Melodic sequencer

A melody generator that doesn’t use a piano roll. A wave shape picks the notes, a rhythm engine picks when they land. Slides, trills, accents — it has the soul of a 303 but writes lines you’d never think of. Connect it to any synth.

ØMNĪ
Chord generator

A hexagonal grid where every tap is a chord, and moving one step changes just one note. Harmony that flows instead of jumping. Add strum, inversions, or record a path. Point it at any synth.

Instruments
ŚBTRÆCT
Analogue synth

The classic synth sound. Fat basses, sharp leads, warm pads. Oscillators through a filter, shaped by envelopes — the building blocks of every synth sound you know. Eight voices, all modulatable.

Sounds like: Original design.

CMPLÆX
FM synth

Six sound generators stacked and tangled into each other. Electric pianos, glass bells, metallic hits, textures that shift while you listen. Load thousands of classic patches or design your own. Eight voices.

Sounds like: A Yamaha DX7.

WÆVE
Macro oscillator

24 completely different sound engines in one plugin. Twist three knobs — harmonics, timbre, morph — and the whole character changes. Analogue, digital, granular, vocal, physical — it shapeshifts but always sounds musical. Eight voices.

Sounds like: Mutable Instruments Plaits.

RÆZOŊ
Resonator

The body of an instrument — without the instrument. Pluck it, strike it, blow into it. Strings ring sympathetically, everything resonates. Previous notes hang in the air while new ones arrive. Four voices. Hidden inside: a 12-voice polysynth easter egg.

Sounds like: Mutable Instruments Rings.

THRÆD
Macro oscillator

47 synthesis engines. The deep end. Classic waveforms, noise, speech, models of things that don’t exist. Where WÆVE is a curated selection, THRÆD is the full catalogue. Eight voices.

Sounds like: Mutable Instruments Braids.

PHŸŚK
Modal synth

Bow, blow, or strike a virtual material. It responds like a real object — but the object is impossible. Instruments from a world with different physics. Monophonic.

Sounds like: Mutable Instruments Elements.

EŊŚÆMBL
Sampler

Load samples. Play them across the keyboard. Per-bank sample selection, pitch shifting, filtering. Simple, immediate, no fuss.

Sounds like: Whatever you feed it.

BRÆK
Break slicer

Drop in a loop, chop it up. Auto-slice or cut manually. Each slice mapped to a MIDI note — rearrange, pitch-shift, mangle. Your breaks, rearranged.

Sounds like: Whatever you feed it.

Effects
WÆTHR
Texture processor

Audio goes in, texture comes out. Granular clouds, frozen moments, spectral smears, time-stretching. The space between sounds.

Sounds like: Mutable Instruments Clouds.

TRŊSÆNT
Bus processor

A chain of processors that makes drums hit harder. Saturate, crush, shape transients, add sub-bass boom, squeeze, tame. Parallel blend.

Sounds like: Louder and fatter drums.

MÆŊĠL
Beat mangler

Stutter, reverse, gate, bounce, tape-stop, destroy. Feed it a beat — it gives back something you didn’t expect. Musical chaos, clock-synced.

Sounds like: Original design.

HÆLL
Plate / waveguide reverb

Two modes — plate and spring. Tight rooms through to infinite freeze. Hold a moment in suspension. Warm, dense, long.

Sounds like: Original design (plate / waveguide reverb).

TÆPE
Tape delay

Delay with tape character. Each repeat degrades, darkens, drifts. Wow, flutter, saturation. Echoes that age gracefully.

Sounds like: Original design.
