If you’re a fan of Legos or Tinkertoys, you can apply the same concepts to audio—well, sort of. This synthesizer and sampler package gives you a wealth of tools to create and process sounds. It features a completely modular structure, allowing you to designate audio signal flow through the instruments, synthesis, and user interface to create your own instrument sounds, samples, and effects. It features 32-bit realtime signal processing with sample rates up to 768kHz; a huge collection of synths, surround and studio effects, live performance tools, and samplers; VST 2, Audio Units, CoreAudio, and RTAS support; and more. It can also function as a standalone app or as a plug-in.
