What it does
A synth built on two wavetable oscillators, a third conventional oscillator and a noise source, routed through one of three selectable algorithms into wave shaping, bitcrushing, drive and filters. Modulation is the centre of it: four LFOs, envelopes, an XY pad, mod wheel and MPE gestures each feed two destinations, and a motion sequencer adds another. Compressor, delay and reverb finish the chain, standalone or as an AUv3.
In the demo
Jade opens six instances in AUM, then strips back to a default patch in standalone and builds it up oscillator by oscillator so each stage is audible alone. She routes LFOs to wavetable position and tuning, runs the motion sequencer, then plays both factory banks and the add-on preset packs.
Worth knowing
Nearly every control is a modulation destination, which is the point and a lot to learn. The desktop version is a separate purchase, and several preset packs load inside the app, some free and some paid.
