Split Chaos creates two alternate realities of your sound. Your audio is duplicated into two identical paths. From there, each path gradually disagrees with the other through timing, pitch, tone, saturation, and continuously evolving movement before they collide back together into a single output. Instead of traditional chorus, delay, or modulation, Split Chaos focuses on controlled disagreement. Small differences create width, depth, and movement. Larger differences produce fractured doubles, unstable textures, warped stereo images, and beautifully imperfect parallel worlds. Every control shapes how the two realities drift apart: • Offset introduces timing disagreement between the paths. • Bend creates subtle pitch disagreement through delay modulation. • Color gives each path a different spectral character. • Friction applies different saturation characteristics to each path. • Drift continuously evolves every disagreement with slow organic motion. • Mix blends the processed signal with your original audio. From subtle widening and analog-style instability to surreal layered textures, Split Chaos transforms ordinary sounds into evolving, living performances that never stand completely still. Perfect for guitars, synths, vocals, drums, pads, percussion, and creative sound design. Features • Unique dual-path processing architecture • Organic evolving motion without obvious LFO modulation • Timing, pitch, tonal and saturation disagreement • Wide stereo textures and animated depth • Character-first interface with six intuitive controls • AUv3 support for iPhone, iPad, and Mac • Works in GarageBand, Logic Pro, Cubasis, AUM, Audiobus, and other compatible AUv3 hosts Split the signal. Create two realities. Choose how much they disagree.

Draw a mountain. Hear a sound climb its slope, rest a moment at the top, then come slowly down. You don't need to read music. In Drawtone, music starts with a line: drag a finger across the paper and it plays before the line is even finished. Whatever you draw is in tune; every line lands in the scale you chose. A long line is one long sound. Not a stutter of beeps; a sound that lasts like a breath and bends wherever your line bends. COLOUR IS THE SOUND A warm colour strikes like a string. A cool colour stretches like a bow. Six voices, six colours; stack them up and they never drown each other, each stays in its own place. OPEN A WATERFALL, THEN DRAW YOUR OWN Fifty drawings from nature are waiting inside. The waterfall is a marimba pouring down. The fireflies are single touches lighting up in the dark. The crane is one long line in Nihavend. Open one, listen, leave your own line on it. Your own drawing is not lost: undo brings it back, key and tempo included. DRAW HICAZ Hicaz, Uşşak, Nihavend, Hüzzam, Saba: the Turkish makams sit in the same list as the Western scales, not hidden in a submenu. The same line is a morning in Lydian and an evening in Hüzzam. THE PULSE The dot in the header beats with what you hear. Tap it: tempo, rhythm, swing. If you like, a light drum kit holds the floor underneath. Off by default; the first thing you should hear is your own line. SEND IT TO SOMEONE Share what you drew as WAV, or take it as MIDI and grow it in any other music app. No account, no ads, nothing to unlock. Every scale, every voice, every export is included. Works without internet. 19 languages. Draw a line. The rest follows.
