Sparkle is a tool for advanced spectral hybridizations made of several algorithms that operate on frequency domain. By means of envelope preservation and phase-sync processing it can creates high-quality sound transformations.
The basic idea is to transfer the temporal structure of a sound (source) onto another sound (target) of which the spectral properties are preserved.
Simply put, you can take a voice and make it sing a Beethoven’s symphony!

Anckorage Spring is a physical modelling audio synthesiser based on the simulation of a set of connected mass- spring, integrating non-linearities, fluid and static friction, mechanical limits, gravity and bouncing. It is designed to be controlled by a continuous controller (like the Haken Continuum) but can be used with a regular keyboard or directly from the device screen or from other core midi apps. Of course a continuous controller will provide a much more accurate control of the model.
The main ideas behind Anckorage Spring are :
• Being able to tweak real world parameters like Mass, Force, Gravity, etc. instead of tweaking usual electronic parameters.
• Not only try to mimic real world, but also allow very “unusual” things like modulating a Mass and changing the Gravity.
• Emphasis control and expression using the physical parameters.
• Open a new world of sound to experiment with.
• Have fun and enjoy playing music.

Mutone by NYU student William Lindmeier is an experimental interface for evolving soundscapes. You add audio sequences by drawing in a 3D space. When audio tracks collide they reproduce, creating new and unexpected sounds.
