A crazy instrument which uses spherical harmonics to modulate the vertices of a sphere. These vertices are then used to generate waveforms for a simplistic additive synthesis engine. Uses opengl to display the modulated spheres (one for every voice).

manic is an 8 slot random sample player where you decide the samples, but manic decides when to play them. Samples are triggered according to their probability, on a tempo sync pattern. Also allows for randomising of volume, pitch, pan, delay, reverse and swing. You decide how much, but not when. You can loop the sequence, change sequence seed with midi keys and quantise the pitch randomising for a more melodic sequence. Works well for random glitchy percussion, instant melodic sequences of multisamples or total chaos

SBleep-0, or Super Bleep-o is a groove box (synthesizer w/ sequencer). The basic idea is to have two short melodies playing at the same time…and then smash their waveforms together like particle accelerators! There are two melody generators, each with their own sequencer and oscillator. Each oscillator has a small number of waveforms it can create.
The Non-Linear Waveform Combiner is the atom smasher that gives “Sblee” all its unique power. You see, adding together two melodies has been done- for several hundred years. Bu this millenium? It’s all about non-linear waveform mixing! When you multiply, for example, two melodies together, you are instantly transported into another space. The theories which generated the scales that created the melodies are instantly lost in space-wind. Take a listen to some of the examples. You’ll hear various other non-linear waveform combinations, like XOR, A+B with clipping, A being used to shift B to the left or right, and others too complex to explain!

Ambient texture generator. It’s based on a dual synthesis engine ( 1substractive oscillator + 2 wave players), completed with several randomization options and a battery of built-in effects. It also features a good set of 24 presets.

PixelPops is a keyboard controlled random tone monosynth. It has many features which can only be accessed using notes and velocity. It is suitable for computer glitches, percussive pops and experimental performances.
There are 2 oscillators (X and Y) which are multiplied (to form Z). Each new note-on results in a random pitch and random waveform for X and Y, random pan and volume for X, Y and Z. Retrigger and portamento are controlled by velocity. When played without retrigger PixelPops behaves almost like a ’normal’ monosynth. Almost.

Crazy sounds modulator & generator

An audiovisual instrument with a drawing-based interface. Sound is generated in a manner similar to scanned synthesis, with two oscillators whose waveforms are obtained by scanning the x- and y-axis positions of the trail drawn by the user. The larger the gesture, the louder the sound, and vice-versa, when the mouse is not moving, no sound is generated.
0
A monophonic synth which attaches a sound (either a sawtooth or a square wave) to a bunch of particles, which move in a 2d space like a fountain. The particles’ position in the space then determines certain aspects of the sound (frequency, amplitude, panning). There can be up to 200 particles in use at any one time.

3 osc subtractive synth that generates random pitch changes as melodic or unmelodic as you please

A simple synth to create host-synced rhythmic sequences.

When you play pong, you play music. You can try it here as an applet, though that’s not half as good as connecting it to a nice soft-synth sound, adding a few effects (arpeggiator, maybe?) and letting it play some loops for you.
This pong uses Swing and requires Java 1.4 or newer.

Based around Etric Van Mayer’s LifeForce Sequencer, this auto-synth allows you to create, load, save and run patterns designed within the rules of John Conway’s Game Of Life. The output is fed into three robust operators and then strung through a handful of effects (distortion, bit crushing, modulation, feedback modulation, etc.). The result is a pattern-based, rhythmic droning synthesizer with immense possibilities for tone variation.
