About

Modsync

Features
Read full description

Make your modulations groove with your music. When your LFO rate matches your track's tempo, modulations rise and fall naturally with the beat. This creates tighter, more musical movement where the modulation enhances the rhythm instead of fighting it. Modsync calculates LFO frequencies in Hz instantly based on your BPM and note division. Just copy the values into your synth or plugin. FEATURES - Instant tempo-synced LFO calculations - 6 rhythmic divisions from whole notes to 1/32 - Straight, dotted, and triplet variations - One-tap copy to clipboard - Beautiful, minimalist interface - Haptic feedback - Works completely offline PRO TIP With iCloud Universal Clipboard enabled, tap any value on your iPhone and paste it directly into your synth or DAW on Mac. No typing required. Perfect for music producers, sound designers, and synth enthusiasts who want their modulations to feel musical, not random. Made with love by AKER.

About

Aether Learn

Aether Learn teaches you how sound and synthesizers actually work, one hands-on lesson at a time. No jargon, no prerequisites. Every concept comes with a real synth engine you play with your finger, so you hear the idea the moment you read it. Start from the very beginning: what sound is, how frequency becomes pitch, and why a wave's shape decides its character. Then build up through the tools real producers use every day. WHAT YOU LEARN - Sound and frequency: vibration, pitch, amplitude, and the difference between loudness you measure and loudness you hear - Waveforms and harmonics: watch a bright wave get built from pure sine waves, one at a time, until it forms a full saw - Subtractive synthesis: shape tone with a low-pass filter, resonance, and the classic filter sweep - Envelopes: attack, hold, decay, sustain, release, and delay, shaping how a note lives over time - Modulation: LFOs, vibrato, tremolo, and the rhythmic filter wobble at the heart of bass music HOW IT WORKS Each lesson has three steps. Learn the idea in plain language, watch a short demo that moves the controls for you, then play with a real, audio-reactive instrument built into the app. You see the waveform, the harmonics, the filter curve, and the envelope respond in real time as you turn the knobs. Built for curiosity. Whether you have never touched a synth or you want to finally understand the gear you already own, Aether Learn gets you from zero to making sounds you understand. Best suited for absolute beginners who want solid foundations to carry into any DAW or software synthesizer when they start producing music.
