  • Fantastic!

    I’m a complete beginner to synth, and have been interested for a very long time to learn. Syntorial has made this possible! When learning it goes such a long way to actually be able to work through the steps and apply it yourself, which is exactly what this is. The way this enables you to learn different areas and focus solely on that at one time (while also showing you how well you’re doing) is so incredibly helpful to really grasping all the different areas of sound. Just amazing. I’m only about 20% percent through the lessons, and have already learned so much to apply to playing synth and creating patches. I’ve gained such a valuable foundation, and with 150+ more lessons to go. Absolutely well worth the money. Thank you SO much for creating Syntorial!!

  • Phenomenal

    I didn’t even really know what synths were just a few weeks ago. I’m now halfway through Syntorial and can keep up with the sound engineer I work with who has 10+ years of experience. He’s so impressed by what I’ve learned he’s considering doing Syntorial himself.

    Some highlights of Syntorial:

    - Phenomenal instructor
    - Lessons are concise and focus on one thing at a time, building on one another
    - The “listen to your ear” approach is amazing. When I listen to my music with synths now I can write down what they are doing to produce what I’m hearing, and even hop in to a DAW and try to reproduce it

    If you’re interested in learning more about synthesizers, look no further.

  • The fun in fundamentals

    I have a above average understanding of synths but this has enriched my understanding and actually trained my ear to identify different waveforms, which I didn't anticipate.
  • Worth every penny!

    This app is indescribably value! The lessons have expanded my sound exponentially and I’m only on lesson 10. I’m experimenting with different apps and the knowledge is transferable to the apps with the same parameters. Can’t wait to see How i fair after finishing their lessons!
  • Great app for both synth and ear training.

    When your starting out, synths look overwhelming. So many knobs and dials, it’s scary to try and make something. This app will not only help you learn to make your own synths and get off the preset wagon; it will train your ear to hear the difference and immediately know which knobs need adjusting to get the sound you want.

    Not to mention it comes with packs to learn Serum and Massive specifically. Plus the synth you train on, you can download to use as a plugin when developing in your DAW of choice. Definitely worth it.

    My only word of caution is that I got lazy part way through, and was using my Airpod Pros for convenience. But it hit a point where I couldn’t hear the difference. It got frustrating and then I plugged in my studio headphones and it was like night and day. So, as always make sure you have the appropriate gear.

  • Amazing!

    The standard by which all others should be judged. Perfectly paced, satisfyingly deep, it teaches you exactly what it promises to, and you LEARN it! Couldn’t be happier.
  • Worth every penny

    I have nothing but praise for Syntorial. As a pure beginner, this app took me from aimless puttering to methodically learning how to shape sound, one aspect at a time. It’s extremely well designed, comprehensive and fun. Like I said, worth every penny.
  • What a digital tutorial should be

    Syntorial is the best computer based learning tutorial I have ever used, bar none. Being a 60 year old programmer, that’s saying something!

    It takes you through a synthesizer (included) control by control, training your ears to recognize what each sound wave modification sounds like, by using a gradually expanding set of tools to match a sound you hear. This both trains your ear (to recreate sounds you hear), while it increases your ability to create sounds by knowing what each part of a typical synth does.

    Yeah, it’s $130, but it beats paying more for various other ways to learn synthesis and not getting the same results (knowledge), only to try another one.
