Author View comments Tags Tags: , , , ,

BitWiz

BitWiz Audio Synth translates C-like code expressions into 8-bit generative stereo audio in real-time. The entered code expression is used to calculate each audio frame, also known as “bytebeat” synthesis.

What’s New in Version 2.3.5
• Full Audiobus support: input/filter/output slots!
• Add main output level slider (in Library menu screen)
• Fix code update when deleting characters
• Various minor improvements and bugfixes

Record your sessions and export through itunes or Audio Copy to other apps, or upload to your SoundCloud account.

Use the dual multitouch XY-pad or external MIDI control to tweak variables in the expression in real-time. Play BitWiz as a musical instrument or compose algorithmic pieces that evolves by themselves! BitWiz can also include the microphone input for crazy distortion effects!

BitWiz comes bundled with lots of examples, and you can easily add your own codes to the built-in library.
You can also share your codes by e-mail, twitter or facebook, or open them in another application.

You don’t need to learn C to use this app, just play around with the included codes and tweak a number here or there, and strange glitchy variations will appear. You can even let BitWiz generate random codes for you with a swipe.

• Real-time BYTEBEAT synthesizer
