Spreadsheets Synth vs Bitbop

The 303 lives between the sheets. Spreadsheets Synth is an acid bass synthesizer with a built-in step sequencer — a cultural product of the band Spreadsheets, tuned to 313K and pointed straight at the dance floor. THE SQUELCH Sawtooth or square through a resonant filter with cutoff, resonance, decay, and accent — from rubbery basslines to screaming acid leads. Add distortion for grit, then send it into orbit with the phaser and delay. THE SEQUENCER Program patterns step by step, set the line looping, and ride the cutoff live. It's an instrument for performing, not just programming.

Make music with your thumbs. Bitbop is a tiny chiptune groovebox - tap the colored pads to drop notes into a song while a little 8-bit band grooves underneath you: melody, bass, sparkle and drums. Here's the magic: every pad is in key, so you literally can't play a wrong note. Beginners make something that sounds great in seconds. There's nothing to read, no menus to learn - just tap and it grooves. FIVE SOUND ENGINES, NOT FIVE PRESETS Every mood is its own synthesizer, written from scratch: - BitBop - the signature chiptune voice: PWM lead and chip-supersaw - Rave - detuned supersaw and a saw reese bass, straight off a warehouse floor - Handheld - a faithful 4-channel console chip, real LFSR noise and all - Classical - plucked Karplus-Strong strings in a procedural hall - Dancehall - syncopated sub-bass, skank chop and a steppers riddim 600+ TUNES TO START FROM Load a public-domain classic, a folk tune, a rag, an anthem, a rave groove or an original chiptune sketch - then pull it apart and make it yours. Or hit Surprise and let Bitbop sketch a whole song for you.
