Fundamental2 vs Laryngeal

Fundamental is a sound synthesis software combining the different roots of electronic music history. Its wave engine is a faithful sonic recreation of a vintage Rohde&Schwartz vacuum tube oscillator ( having been widely used at WDR by Stockhausen ) Thanks to sonicLAB audio engine design, Fundamental leaves behind the limitations of the original device by proposing complex modulation possibilities, stochastic distributions addressing the sonic parameters like frequency , gain, stereo panning etc. in continuum, which has not been applicable until now. The Fundamental software presents you 8 instances of this vintage sine wave generator with all the artifacts and richness of a vintage equipment. That combination is we believe something you should experience. Direct Link for manual : https://www.sonic-lab.com/Fundamental/Fundamental2iOS_manual.pdf Fundamental2 brings following new features to the Fundamental1, basically now you can create organic, endless moving textures. (for iOS standalone and AUv3 ) - Ring Modulator, 7 individual modulator oscillators and one carrier oscillator. - A morphing engine which lets you gradually morph between four instances of Fundamental scenes. Also a stochastic manipulation on the 2D morphing panel is possible. - True real time gradual transition between tuning scales. - Rotary Encoder midi controller mapping for high resolution oscillator frequency and gain control with midi hardware. - One can send midi note-on messages to each Fundamental oscillator on discrete midi channels. - A morse code simulator is available on each GEN (sonicLAB LFO design ) which can create custom morse signals to modulate the relevant GEN outputs. - new envelope type "Ernd". Whether you play live electronics, compose for media or just insterested in early electronic music, Fundamental2 is a strong tool. Some of the main features of Fundamental1: ( iOS standalone and AUv3 ) - unique polymorphing wavetable synthesis without any compromise in data content and precision. - 4 dynamic wavetables being rendered for each voice to represent infinitesimal steps of frequency and gain combinations between 1HZ – 3800Hz of the original vacuum tube oscillator. - 8 simultaneous voices each with custom freq, gain, boost, panning and modulation settings. - Custom or harmonic frequency distribution of voices with variable spread ratio and tuning table. - 4 independent stochastic modulations for each voice (32 in total) addressing all parameters with various continuous, discrete distributions and also standard waveforms. - Full MPE support with various configuration possibilites. - Independent Attack / Release envelopes for each voice with various modes, AR times can be set to degrees of randomness. - Vintage oscillator or pure sine wave mode. Recommended iPAD model : A12 processor or higher. Due to screen size challenges, iPAD Mini models are not recommended.

Laryngeal is a musical instrument modeled on your own vocal tract. Touch the square, and you're playing with resonance itself — the same physics that turns your throat, tongue, and mouth into an acoustic filter every time you speak. The fundamental stays fixed; your finger moves two filters that shape the vowel, the way your mouth normally would. Trace the surface and you're improvising with an instrument built to be played, not just heard. Look away, and it starts playing back at you — a second, slightly detuned voice echoes what you did seconds ago. Leave it alone entirely, and it never quite goes silent: it drifts, breathes, and occasionally sounds on its own. Underneath the sound is a small piece of linguistics. The five reference points on the pad aren't arbitrary — they mark /i, e, a, o, u/, the single most common five-vowel pattern across the world's languages. The name borrows from Laryngeal Theory: the idea that a class of sounds long vanished from Proto-Indo-European still lingers today as the color of a vowel. Tap "how it works" to read the rest, whenever you're curious. — One drone, two parallel formant filters, fixed fundamental — A shadow voice that replays your own recent movement, delayed and detuned — Generative drift — never left in complete silence — Minimal, monochrome interface: play first, read later — Free. No ads, no in-app purchases, no account. Headphones recommended.
